1. This false sense of #security is true in other areas where vigilance is still called for. cbc.ca/1.4582476
2. For example, airports around the world use metal detectors and luggage x rays, but very few countries systematically screen #passports against #INTERPOL's Stolen & Lost Travel Document Database or conduct other measures of more careful #identity verification.
3. And computer users-- individuals, as well as those in corporations and governments-- rely too heavily on the security of antivirus software, and succumb to #phishing attacks and other hacks that can cause irreversible harm.

1. Petros Stathis and the Montenegrin government partnered to organize a supply chain to bring urgently needed medical supplies to protect medical staff and help Montenegro battle #Coronavirus europeanbusinessmagazine.com/business/busin…
2. The first delivery included 350,000 medical masks, 600,000 gloves, 200,000 sterile surgical masks, 110,100 N95 respiratory masks, and 3,000 goggles.
3. With only 600,000 people, Montenegro faced a huge challenge getting supplies in a market where countries like the US (population 360+ million) and France (66+ million) have placed orders of 1 billion respiratory protective face masks each.

“We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. Image
"When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant.
"Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must - at that moment - become the center of the universe.” -- Elie Wiesel

"Debemos tomar partido. La neutralidad ayuda al opresor, nunca a la víctima. El silencio alienta al torturador , nunca al atormentado . A veces tenemos que intervenir."
"Cuando las vidas humanas están en peligro, cuando la dignidad humana está en peligro , las fronteras y las sensibilidades nacionales se vuelven irrelevantes."

2. How did it happen? A large man followed a frantic woman inside #Ephraim’s #Charlotte, North Carolina #karate studio claiming he was there to pick her up. She repeatedly insisted that she did not know him and that he “tried to #kidnap her. nydailynews.com/news/crime/ny-…
3. The man refused to leave and tried to force himself further into the #Dojo. In #Ephraim's words: "I then went into action defending myself and got him out of the #Dojo...Once outside he attempted to attack again and was dealt with accordingly." nypost.com/2019/01/04/wou…

1. Since hundreds were killed by the #Paris #terrorist attackers at #CharlieHebdo in Jan/2015: at the #Bataclan #concerthall and the #StadedeFrance in #Paris# in Nov/2015 and on la #PromenadedesAnglais in Nice on #BastilleDay 2016, #French #police have been on #alert 24/7.
2. Each #police #investigation leads to more and more potential #suspects and those with links to #suspects being placed on #terroristwatchlists. In addition, #France has a high number of returning #radicalized fighters returning from #Iraq and #Syria and presenting real risks.
3. Consequently, #France's #terroristwatchlist reportedly grown to15,000+ names. We can't expect #French police and #anti-terrorist teams to monitor thousands of people 24/7. The best we can hope for is #citizen and #police #bravery combined as well as some luck.

Appropriate regulation would help lend the crypto field the trust needed for it to flourish.

2. While regulation regarding verifying the identities of those launching #ICOs is appropriate, @Google’s plan to ban #ICO and #crypto ads is just plain wrong!
3. In 2015, #Alphabet, @Google's corporate owner, replaced "Don't be evil" with "Do the right thing" in its code of conduct. Now, in 2018, @Google plans on "doing the wrong thing" by banning ALL #ICO and #crypto ads instead of just those found to be #scams or fraudulent.
