Indian Hacker shared his video of hacking Microsoft Kinect Xbox to control Tata Sky !

The desire of remote free experience urged Harishankar Narayan a mechanical Engineer to hack into the Microsoft Kinect Xbox and control Tata Sky through Kinetic Movements. In a You Tube video which he has uploaded the man is seen controlling the Tata Sky with the movements of his hands.

The mechanical Engineer said that he wanted a remote free experience which led him to fiddle with the remote of Microsoft’s Kinect Xbox and by trying and retrying he finally hacked into it to recreate his own codes. He says that he wants every appliance in his home to work according to his gestures.



The man built the whole system with keeping in mind the minute details possible like hew had a device called USB UIRP which he connected to his MacMini. The USB acted as a detector of infrared signal and also was a universal remote for all the gadgets. The USB detected the infrared signals for the Tata Sky remote and then from there he set gestures or movemnts to control the Tata Sky.





The hack started with the detection of the Skeleton detection code of the Microsoft’s Xbox Kinect. After that Harishankar Narayan used the open natural interface developed by the Xbox people and he transferred it to his MacMini. After this he did the last bit of the work and wrote the codes for the gestures that would control the Tata Sky. In an interview he also said that not only the Tata Sky but even Playstation can be controlled through kinectic movements.

Tata Sky is slowly replacing cable companies as it provides good customer services to all and provides a good viewing experience to its customers. It has different plans for its users like childrens pack, adults pack, etc.

India bloggers angry at net ban


Indians with computers in an office
There are 50 million Internet users in India
India's burgeoning blogging community is up in arms against a government directive that they say has led to the blocking of their web logs.

The country's 153 internet service providers (ISP) have blocked 17 websites since last week on federal government orders.

Some of these sites belong to Google's Blogspot, a leading international web log hosting service.

Indian bloggers say that the decision is an attack on freedom of speech.

A number of them have started filing petitions under the country's new landmark freedom of information law which gives citizens the right to access information held by the government.

Bloggers say the ban has meant that people do not even have access to blogs like the one set up to help the relatives of the victims of the recent train bombings in Mumbai (Bombay), www.mumbaihelp.blogspot.com.

Angry

The government is not saying why it has banned each of the sites in its latest notification.

SOME BANNED SITES

exposingtheleft.blogspot.com
pajamaeditors.blogspot.com
commonfolkcommonsense.blogspot.com
www.hinduhumanrights.org/hindufocus.html
princesskimberley.blogspot.com

This has incensed bloggers in India, which has about 40,000 blog sites, even more.

"We want answers. Has the government goofed? Or is really talking censorship? With all our problems in India I was naive enough to feel that I was always free to express myself," writes blogger Dina Mehta.

Writer Dilip D'Souza, who authors a blog, says there is a "groundswell" of anger over the government decision.

"The government of my country does what governments find so easy: ban, block, censor," he writes.

Blogger Amit Agarwal bemoans on his site that India has "joined the Internet Filtering Club of China, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Ethiopia".

I am very tense and angry. The ban is cutting us off from the people
Sailesh Bharatwasi,
Blogger

"If the access to restricted websites is not restored in a day or two, this issue is sure to gather active momentum in the Western blogosphere."

Technology consultant Abhishek Baxi, who authors a blog, has filed two petitions under the freedom of information laws demanding answers from the government on the reasons behind the move.

"Is there a directive to block entire blog hosting services? Isn't this is a violation of our freedom of speech," he wonders.

But a spokesman for India's Internet Service Providers Association says that not all the ISPs have blocked blog sites.

"I have personally checked through different ISPs and logged on to many blogging sites, apart from the ones which have been specifically banned by the government," says Deepak Maheshwari, secretary of the association.

A government official has also said there has been no blanket ban on blogging hosts like Blogspot.

"The government order has four blogs under blogspot.com. The order didn't ask the whole site to be banned," Gulshan Rai of India's state-run Computer Emergency Response Team told reporters.

This does not placate bloggers like Sailesh Bharatwasi, 23, who says he has not been able to blog due to the ban.

"I am very tense and angry. We write so that people can read us. The ban is cutting us off from the people," he says.

'No purpose'

A federal government notification of July 2003 says it can ban websites in the interest of:

  • sovereignty or integrity of India
  • security of the state
  • friendly relations with foreign states and public order
  • preventing incitement to commissioning of any cognisable offences.

The sites that have been banned include ones with right-wing Hindu links and an anti-Communist one. At least four of them are on the Blogspot hosting service.

This is not the first time that the government has ordered the blocking of websites since its notification three years ago.

Two years ago, the government blocked a site under a popular message group saying it was indulging in "anti-national activity".

Indians working on computers
There is a thriving blogging community in India

"It has happened a few times in the past, particularly blocking of pornographic sites. But this is the single largest lot of sites to be blocked," says Puneet Tiwari, deputy director of the Internet Service Providers Association of India.

Internet professionals and lawyers believe that blocking sites really serves no purpose in a large country like India with an increasingly thriving blogging community.

"The ISPs can block a specific site, but the person who runs it can easily tweak its name a bit and return," says Mr Tiwari.

There are an estimated 50 million internet users in India, according to ISP industry estimates.

Only seven million people subscribe to the internet, of whom 1.5 million receive broadband services.

Bing search results showing up in Google !


If you try the following query:

http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3A.bing.com%2Fsearch

You get about 20,500 search results from Bing. This would not be such a big problem normally but it seems that Google is incorporating Bing search results and crawling Bing search pages, which seems rather odd for a company that has just

accused its competitor of doing just that (never mind that Bing only used its toolbar as a url discovery device, not to ‘copy search results’ but that sounds a lot better in the press).

On top of that the http://m.bing.com/robots.txt file (which seems to be the source of the results) has this entry in it:

Disallow: /search

Which explicitly disables access to other crawlers on that directory (for all user agents, so that includes the google bot).

I wonder how Google is going to explain the presence of these results away, not only do they do *exactly* that which they accuse the Bing team of, they also blatantly ignore the robots.txt file.

The longer I spend on researching this case the more I think that Google will eventually regret going public with this rather than to talk this over quietly with the Bing team. Even if we forget about the robots.txt file the fact that Google states unequivocally that looking at a competitors search results is somehow wrong, immoral or illegal then they should not be doing that themselves even if they were permitted to do so.

If you live in a glass house you should not throw stones.

Facts : Facebook is more addictive than sex and cigarettes ! :


A small study by a trending company shows that Facebook addiction is one of the fastest growing searches related to addiction. It is more popular than searches for sex or cigarette addiction.


While we already knew that social networks like Facebook produce drugged-up, sex-crazed teenagers, new research shows that Facebook addiction may be soon be more prevalent than offline addictions like sex. The Internet Time Machine, a company that searches for trends across the Web through its extensive cloud computing network, is reporting that Facebook may be more popular than sex.

Addiction to social media, specifically Facebook, is one of the top ranked digital addictions, says the trending company. More people are searching for help with Facebook addiction than sex addiction.

“The rise of social media and the fear/need to be in constant contact with status updates and tweets has created a problem for people with addictive personalities,” says ITM. “The fact that accessing Facebook is so easy no on mobile or tablet devices only feed the addiction. New TV sets are being sold now with Facebook and social media widgets built into the remote control. The need to be updating and “in a loop” is growing ever more important as websites and people flood social media with messages, drowning out personal accounts and peoples interests.”

Unfortunately, still topping the list of addictions is alcohol addiction. Drug addictions like heroin and Oxycotin rank highly as well. Facebook ranked as the 16th highest search trend, ranking above cigarettes, sex, and many other forms of addiction. Worldwide, people have searched for “Internet Facebook addiction” 121.8 million times in recent days.

Do you know anyone who is addicted to the Internet or addicted to a social networking site like Facebook, or is this more of a fad than anything else? And what about the news that Facebook actually kickstarts sex in a relationship? Could Facebook be fueling other forms of addiction?

How Firewalls Work In Pc and Others

How Firewalls Work In Pc and Others


If you have been using Internet on a regular basis or working in a large company and surf the Internet while you are at work, you must have surely come across the term firewall. You might have also heard of people saying “firewalls protect their computer from web attacks and hackers” or “a certain website has been blocked by firewall in their work place”. If you have ever wondered to know what exactly is this firewall and how it works, here we go. In this post I will try to explain “How firewalls work” in a layman’s terms.

How Firewalls Work
Firewalls are basically a barrier between your computer (or a network) and the Internet (outside world). A firewall can be simply compared to a security guard who stands at the entrance of your house and filters the visitors coming to your place. He may allow some visitors to enter while denying others whom he suspects of being intruders. Similarly a firewall is a software program or a hardware device that filters the information (packets) coming through the Internet to your personal computer or a computer network.

Firewalls may decide to allow or block network traffic between devices based on the rules that are pre-configured or set by the firewall administrator. Most personal firewalls such as Windows firewall operate on a set of pre-configured rules that are most suitable under normal circumstances so that the user need not worry much about configuring the firewall.

Personal firewalls are easy to install and use and hence preferred by end-users for use on their personal computers. However large networks and companies prefer those firewalls that have plenty of options to configure so as to meet their customized needs. For example, a company may set up different firewall rules for FTP servers, Telnet servers and Web servers. In addition the company can even control how the employees connect to the Internet by blocking access to certain websites or restricting the transfer of files to other networks. Thus in addition to security, a firewall can give the company a tremendous control over how people use the network.

Firewalls use one or more of the following methods to control the incoming and outgoing traffic in a network:

1. Packet Filtering: In this method packets (small chunks of data) are analyzed against a set of filters. Packet filters has a set of rules that come with accept and deny actions which are pre-configured or can be configured manually by the firewall administrator. If the packet manages to make it through these filters then it is allowed to reach the destination; otherwise it is discarded.

2. Stateful Inspection: This is a newer method that doesn’t analyze the contents of the packets. Instead it compares certain key aspects of each packet to a database of trusted source. Both incoming and outgoing packets are compared against this database and if the comparison yields a reasonable match, then the packets are allowed to travel further. Otherwise they are discarded.

Firewall Configuration
Firewalls can be configured by adding one or more filters based on several conditions as mentioned below:

1. IP addresses: In any case if an IP address outside the network is said to be unfavorable, then it is possible to set filter to block all the traffic to and from that IP address. For example, if a cetain IP address is found to be making too many connections to a server, the administrator may decide to block traffic from this IP using the firewall.

2. Domain names: Since it is difficult to remember the IP addresses, it is an easier and smarter way to configure the firewalls by adding filters based on domain names. By setting up a domain filter, a company may decide to block all access to certain domain names, or may provide access only to a list of selected domain names.

3. Ports/Protocols: Every service running on a server is made available to the Internet using numbered ports, one for each service. In simple words, ports can be compared to virtual doors of the server through which services are made available. For example, if a server is running a Web (HTTP) service then it will be typically available on port 80. In order to avail this service, the client needs to connect to the server via port 80. Similarly different services such as Telnet (Port 23), FTP (port 21) and SMTP (port 25) services may be running on the server. If the services are intended for the public, they are usually kept open. Otherwise they are blocked using the firewall so as to prevent intruders from using the open ports for making unauthorized connections.

4. Specific words or phrases: A firewall can be configured to filter one or more specific words or phrases so that, both the incoming and outgoing packets are scanned for the words in the filter. For example, you may set up a firewall rule to filter any packet that contains an offensive term or a phrase that you may decide to block from entering or leaving your network.

Hardware vs Software Firewall
Hardware firewalls provide higher level of security and hence preferred for servers where security has the top most priority whereas, the software firewalls are less expensive and are most preferred in home computers and laptops. Hardware firewalls usually come as an in-built unit of a router and provide maximum security as it filters each packet in the hardware level itself even before it manages to enter your computer. A good example is the Linksys Cable/DSL router.

Why Firewall?
Firewalls provide security over a number of online threats such as Remote login, Trojan backdoors, Session hijacking, DOS & DDOS attacks, viruses, cookie stealing and many more. The effectiveness of the security depends on the way you configure the firewall and how you set up the filter rules. However major threats such as DOS and DDOS attacks may sometimes manage to bypass the firewalls and do the damage to the server. Even though firewall is not a complete answer to online threats, it can most effectively handle the attacks and provide security to the computer up to the maximum possible extent.

The 10 most useful Linux commands

Maybe the command line isn’t your favourite place to hang out, but to be an effective Linux admin, you need to be able to wield a few essential commands. These 10 commands are guaranteed to simplify your Linux admin life.

I understand that many of you don’t want to use the command line in Linux (or in any operating system, for that matter). But the truth is, to be a good administrator, you have to know the command line. Why? Well, with Windows there are times when the command line is the only thing that can save your skin. With Linux, the command line is vast, reliable, flexible, fast ... I could go on and on.

And of the 2119 possible commands from the /usr/bin directory (in Mandriva Spring 2008) and the 388 possible commands from /usr/sbin/, a few are indispensable. Here are 10 of them that might make your Linux admin life — or your introduction to Linux — a whole lot simpler.

I could make this easy and go with the most used commands (cd, ls, rm) but instead, I am going to go with the most useful commands, and I'll keep it as distribution-neutral as I can.

#1 top
I figured it was fitting to put the top command at the top. Although top is actually responsible for listing currently running tasks, it is also the first command Linux users turn to when they need to know what is using their memory (or even how much memory a system has). I often leave the top tool running on my desktop so I can keep track of what is going on at all times. Sometimes, I will even open up a terminal (usually aterm), place the window where I want it, and then hide the border of the window. Without a border, the terminal can’t be moved, so I always have quick access to the information I need.

Top is a real-time reporting system, so as a process changes, it will immediately be reflected in the terminal window. Top does have some helpful arguments (such as the -p argument, which will have top monitor only user-specified PIDs), but running default, top will give you all the information you need on running tasks.

#2 ln
To many administrators, links are an invaluable tool that not only make users lives simpler, but also drastically reduce disk space usage. If you are unaware of how links can help you, let me pose this simple scenario: you have a number of users who have to access a large directory (filled with large files) on a drive throughout the day. The users are all on the same system, and you don’t want to have to copy the entire directory to each user’s ~/ directory. Instead, just create a link in each user’s ~/ directory to the target. You won’t consume space, and the users will have quick access. Of course when spanning drives, you will have to use symlinks. Another outstanding use for links is linking various directories to the Apache doc root directory. Not only can this save space, it’s often advantageous from a security standpoint.


#3 tar/zip/gzip
Tar, zip and gzip are archival/compression tools that make your administrator life far easier. I bundle these together because the tools can handle similar tasks yet do so with distinct differences (just not different enough to warrant their own entry in this article). Without these tools, installing from source would be less than easy. Without tar/zip/gzip, creating backups would require more space than you might often have.

One of the least used (but often most handy) features of these tools is the ability to extract single files from an archive. Now zip and gzip handle this more easily than tar. With tar, to extract a single file, you have to know the exact size of the file to be extracted. One area where tar/zip/gzip make administration simple is in creating shells scripts that automate a backup process. All three tools can be used with shell scripts and are, hands down, the best, most reliable backup tools you will find.


#4 nano, vi, emacs
I wasn't about to place just one text editor here, for fear of stoking the fires of the "vi vs. emacs" war. To top that off, I figured it was best to throw my favourite editor — nano — into the mix. Many people would argue that these aren’t so much commands as they are full-blown applications. But all these tools are used within the command line, so I call them "commands". Without a good text editor, administering a Linux machine can become problematic.

Imagine having to attempt to edit /etc/fstab or /etc/samba/smb.conf with OpenOffice. Some might say this shouldn’t be a problem, but OpenOffice tends to add hidden end-of-line characters to text files, which can really fubar a configuration file. For the editing of configuration or bash files, the only way to go is with an editor such as nano, vi or emacs.


#5 grep
Many people overlook this amazingly useful tool. Grep prints lines that match a user-specified pattern. Say, for instance, that you are looking at an httpd.conf file that’s more than 1000 lines long, and you are searching for the "AccessFileName .htaccess" entry. You could comb through that file only to come across the entry at line 429, or you can issue the command

[code]grep -n "AccessFileName .htaccess" /etc/httpd/conf/http.conf[/code]

Upon issuing this command you will be returned "439:AccessFileName .htaccess" which tells you the entry you are looking for is on, surprise of all surprises, line 439.

The grep command is also useful for piping other commands to. An example of this is using grep with the ps command (which takes a snapshot of current running processes). Suppose you want to know the PID of the currently crashed Firefox browser. You could issue ps aux and search through the entire output for the Firefox entry. Or you could issue the command ps aux|grep firefox at which point you might see something like this:


[code]jlwallen 17475 0.0 0.1 3604 1180 ? Ss 10:54 0:00 /bin/sh /home/jwallen/firefox/firefoxjlwallen 17478 0.0 0.1 3660 1276 ? S 10:54 0:00 /bin/sh /home/jlwallen/firefox/run-mozilla.sh /home/jlwallen/firefox/firefox-bin

jlwallen 17484 11.0 10.7 227504 97104 ? Sl 10:54 11:50 /home/jlwallenfirefox/firefox-bin

jlwallen 17987 0.0 0.0 3112 736 pts/0 R+ 12:42 0:00 grep --color firefox
[/code]
Now you know the PIDs of every Firefox command running.


#6 chmod
Permissions anyone? Linux administration and security would be a tough job without the help of chmod. Imagine not being able to make a shell script executable with chmod u+x filename. Of course, it's not just about making a file executable. Many web tools require certain permissions before they will even install. To this end, the command chmod -R 666 DIRECTORY/ is one very misused command. Many new users, when faced with permissions issues trying to install an application, will jump immediately to 666 instead of figuring out exactly what permissions a directory or folder should have.

Even though this tool is critical for administration, it should be studied before jumping in blindly. Make sure you understand the ins and outs of chmod before using it at will. Remember w=write, r=read and x=execute. Also remember UGO or User, Group, and Other. UGO is a simple way to remember which permissions belong to whom. So permission rw- rw- rw- means User, Group, and Other all have read and write permissions. It is always best to keep Other highly restricted in their permissions.


#7 dmesg
Call me old-school if you want, but any time I plug a device into a Linux machine, the first thing I do is run the dmesg command. This command displays the messages from the kernel buffer. So, yeah, this is an important one. There is a lot of information to be garnered from the dmesg command. You can find out system architecture, gpu, network device, kernel boot options used, RAM totals, etc.

A nice trick is to pipe dmesg to tail to watch any message that comes to dmesg. To do this, issue the command dmesg | tail -f and the last few lines of dmesg will remain in your terminal. Every time a new entry arrives it will be at the bottom of the "tail". Keep this window open when doing heavy duty system administration or debugging a system.


#8 kill/killall
One of the greatest benefits of Linux is its stability. But that stability doesn't always apply to applications outside the kernel. Some applications can actually lock up. And when they do, you want to be able to get rid of them. The quickest way to get rid of locked up applications is with the kill/killall command. The difference between the two commands is that kill requires the PID (process ID number) and killall requires only the executable name.

Let's say Firefox has locked up. To kill it with the kill command you would first need to locate the PID using the ps aux|grep firefox command. Once you got the PID, you would issue kill PID (where PID is the actual PID number). If you didn't want to go through finding out the PID, you could issue the command killall firefox (although in some instances it will require killall firefox-bin). Of course, kill/killall do not apply (nor should apply) to daemons like Apache, Samba, etc.


#9 man
How many times have you seen "RTFM"? Many would say that acronym stands for "Read the Fine* Manual" (*This word is open for variation not suitable for publication). In my opinion, it stands for “Read the Fine Manpage”. Manpages are there for a reason — to help you understand how to use a command. Manpages are generally written with the same format, so once you gain an understanding of the format, you will be able to read (and understand) them all. And don't underestimate the value of the manpage. Even if you can't completely grasp the information given, you can always scroll down to find out what each command argument does. And the best part of using manpages is that when someone says "RTFM" you can say I have "RTFMd".

#10 mount/umount
Without these two commands, using removable media or adding external drives wouldn't happen. The mount/umount command is used to mount a drive (often labelled like /dev/sda) to a directory in the Linux file structure. Both mount and umount take advantage of the /etc/fstab file, which makes using mount/umount much easier. For instance, if there is an entry in the /etc/fstab file for /dev/sda1 that maps it to /data, that drive can be mounted with the command mount /data. Typically mount/umount must have root privileges (unless fstab has an entry allowing standard users to mount and unmount the device). You can also issue the mount command without arguments and you will see all drives that are currently mounted and where they’re mapped to (as well as the type of file system and the permissions).
