I dont want Google and Apple to know where I walk, drive and with whom I speak. They already know what I do on my computer and what mails I write. Dont want them to know a more about me.
Blackberry has done a good job. It may not be iPhone/Android killer but it is definitely at par with the best in the league. Had BB come up with this 2 years back it would have been great. But I am willing to give them a chance. I hope the voice and screen sharing works good.
Instead of just saying "degree" it might be more sensible to white-list certain universities alone based on their reputation. These names can be published every year.
TCS can hardly be called a software company. They dont build anything. They simply cater to the needs of other large companies. IT is a service industry and no geek worth his salt will ever work with them irrespective of the pay.
We can hardly put the blame in on large corporations for halting reforms. The only commitment that Tatas and Ambanis have is to maximize the share holder value and if they have a monopoly in the market they can do it much more easily. As long as these companies do not cross the line where they can get implicated by court (such as bribing ministers) I think they are okay.
The responsibility to protect the interests of public is with the government which is failing miserably at that task. The people of India too dont seem to value freedom much. For example the anti-corruption movement in India supports a larger government than a thinner one. They too are against reforms but want more and more lokpals to supervise the existing failed structures.
When people are evading their responsibility to fight for their freedom government will have no incentive it giving freedom to people. Corporations never have that kind of obligation in any way. Name one large company in India or elsewhere that has supported reforms that could lead to more competition in their target markets ?
That adds murder charges to the criminals. Apparently one of the rapist who was the most active in this crime was a juvenile. It might be the case the the protectors of these criminals are trying to put the maximum blame on this juvenile guy so that others escape easily and being a juvenile he too probably will be let off easily.
The whole incidence and exposed India's failure in multiple spheres.
1. Government has lost all it's credibility.
2. Police force is not being looked as protectors of law but mere goons in uniform.
3. Overall law enforcement has seen it's low in this case and many other cases.
Honestly, why should someone waste time doing this ? If a person is allergic to technical jargon, all he needs to know is "its a security attack that can compromise your database".
