Los crecientes cambios que se producen hoy en día y que interrogan a los individuos respecto de sus certezas, junto con la permanente innovación tecnológica, exigen de ellos una actualización constante de sus saberes. Para afrontar este escenario los educadores están obligados a tomar determinadas posiciones en relación con lo que se enseña, cómo se enseña y el para qué de esa enseñanza. Enseñar ciencia no implica solo transmitir una serie de saberse a nuestros alumnos dentro de un marco educativo formal sino, por el contrario, es generar un los jóvenes de hoy curiosidad por preguntar, por indagar y, por ende, descubrir lo que hasta el momento les era ajeno. |

Researching about Cybercrimes…
Creator and Four Users of Loverspy Spyware Program Indicted
NEWS RELEASE SUMMARY – August 26, 2005
United States Attorney Carol C. Lam of the Southern District of California and John C. Richter, Acting Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division, U.S. Department of Justice, announced today the indictments of Carlos Enrique Perez-Melara — the creator and marketer of a spyware program called “Loverspy” – and four others who used Loverspy illegally to break into the computers and illegally intercept the electronic communications of others.
According to the indictment, which was returned on July 21, 2005, and recently unsealed, Loverspy was a computer program designed and marketed by Mr. Perez for people to use to spy on others. Prospective purchasers, after paying $89 through a web site in Texas, were electronically redirected to Perez’s computers in San Diego, where the “members” area of Loverspy was located. Purchasers would then select from a menu an electronic greeting card to send to up to five different victims or email addresses. The purchaser would draft an email sending the card and use a true or fake email address for the sender. Unbeknownst to the victims, once the email greeting card was opened, Loverspy secretly installed itself on their computer. From that point on, all activities on the computer, including emails sent and received, web sites visited, and passwords entered were intercepted, collected and sent to the purchaser directly or through Mr. Perez’s computers in San Diego. Loverspy also gave the purchaser the ability remotely to control the victim’s computer, including accessing, changing and deleting files, and turning on web-enabled cameras connected to the victim computers. Over 1,000 purchasers from the United States and the rest of the world purchased Loverspy and used it against more than 2,000 victims. Mr. Perez’s operations were shut down by a federal search warrant executed in October 2003.
The indictment charges Mr. Perez with: creating a surreptitious interception device, (i.e., the Loverspy program); sending the program, concealed in an innocuous-appearing electronic greeting card, to victims; advertising the program; advertising the surreptitious use of the program; illegal wiretapping; disclosing illegally intercepted communications; and obtaining unauthorized access to the victim computers. Each count of the 35-count indictment carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a maximum fine of $250,000 per count.
In addition to the indictment of Mr. Perez, the federal grand jury sitting in San Diego handed up separate, two-count indictments charging John J. Gannitto of Laguna Beach, CA; Kevin B. Powell of Long Beach, CA; Laura Selway of Irvine, CA; and, Cheryl Ann Young of Ashland, PA., with illegal computer hacking, through utilization of Loverspy, in furtherance of other criminal activity and with illegally intercepting the electronic communications of their victims. Each of the two counts carries a maximum penalty of up to five years in prison and a maximum fine of up to $250,000.
“This federal indictment — one of the first in the country to target a manufacturer of ’spyware’ computer software — is particularly important because of the damage done to people’s privacy by these insidious programs,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General John C. Richter of the Criminal Division. “Programs such as Loverspy exist solely to latch onto computer equipment for the purpose of stealing personal and financial information. Law enforcement must continue to take action against the manufacturers of these programs to protect unsuspecting victims and seek punishment for those responsible for wreaking havoc online.”
United States Attorney Carol C. Lam said, “What the promoters of Loverspy didn’t know was that while they were watching their victims, law enforcement was watching them.”
Daniel R. Dzwilewski, Special Agent in Charge of the San Diego Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, stated: “The Internet must remain a safe place for all to enjoy without fear of identity theft and/or loss of privacy and, therefore, the FBI will continue to aggressively pursue those who compromise the privacy of innocent victims through the utilization of ‘Spyware’.”
Other Loverspy purchasers have been prosecuted by federal authorities in Charlotte, NC; Dallas, TX; and, Honolulu, HI and are being prosecuted in Kansas City, MO and Houston, TX. U.S. Attorney Lam expressed her appreciation for the continuing support and assistance of the Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section of the U. S. Department of Justice. A concerted effort to identify, investigate and prosecute Loverspy purchasers is being conducted by the United States Attorney’s Office and Federal Bureau of Investigation in San Diego. This case was investigated by Special Agents of the San Diego Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The Loverspy operation was dismantled by the execution of a federal search warrant upon Perez’s residence by the FBI on October 10, 2003. All known Loverspy victims have been notified by electronic mail that the program was launched against them.

Meu primeiro cavalo de troia
O presente mal intencionado, carrega o nome do mito grego. Hoje me deparei com esta experiencia.
Demorou um pouco para entender o que estava acontecendo. So percebi quando loguei e o wallpaper estava diferente. Desloguei e loguei de novo para ter certeza que o usuario estava correto. E para desagradavel surpresa estava.
Clico aqui e ali, tudo parece ser uma pegadinha. Cada mensagem do windows ou qualquer outro programa parece te enganar. Uma leve paranoia. Apos alguns cliques desconfiados, consigo detecar, muitos virus, muitos com o AVG. Porem nao consigo remove-los.
Leve frustracao. Pensamento viaja pela cybercultura, atos ficcticios se tornando reais. Por que existem estes spywares, sustentados por “algo nao bom” (no estilo novilingua). Alguns dizem que a lingua pode hipnotizar, mas isso fica para um post proprio.
Pesquiso mais um pouco na internet na ansia de expulsar esse intruso e recuperar meus arquivos! mas acho que ja era…
O que eu tinha:
alguns docs e pdfs do mestrado – posso recuperar
fotos do casorio – consigo tambem
ppts do Mandei
apresentacoes, musica, documentos e muitas imagens…
mas nada mega, power importante.
Acho que terei que formatar o computador, ja aproveito e coloco um linux. E guerra aos Trojan Horses!!!
que borbulhem como o vapor da natureza…

The Death of Ferdinand Saussure
Procurando sobre Ferdinand Saussure encontrei essa música: The Death of Ferdinand Saussure. Vejam o clipe:
The Death of Ferdinand Saussure – Artist(Band):The Magnetic Fields
I met Ferdinand de Saussure
On a night like this
On love he said
“I’m not so sure
I even know what it is
No understanding
No closure
It is a nemesis
You can’t use a bulldozer
To study orchids”
He said…
So we don’t know anything
You don’t know anything
I don’t know anything
about love
But we are nothing
You are nothing
I am nothing
Without love
I’m just a great composer
And not a violent man
But I lost my composure
And I shot Ferdinand
Crying “it’s well and kosher
to say you don’t understand
but this is for Holland-Dozier-Holland”
His last words were
We don’t know anything [etc]
His fading words were
We don’t know anything [etc]

Sapir Whorf Hypothesis
“The principle of linguistic relativity aka “Sapir–Whorf hypothesis“. The idea that Language shapes thought and action. Eskimos have more words for snow than people in the tropics (but the idea that Eskimos have hundreds of words for snow is a myth).”

Principles:
1. Media (meaning ways of communicating) mediates all human relationships
2. All media are biased, like the Mayan speech is biased toward their culture.
3. A change in media can have profound effects on society. We can shift our ways of thinking.
“Seeing like a state”
The first Australian census taking find that language makes things difficult. Nalumin and Kufelmin, meaning “Us” and “them” (to the West). The Australian teams were confused by who was “Us” and “Them”….because everyone was “Us” but they were all “Them”. Going from a non-writing world, to a writing world can shift the way people see themselves. People now have names, specific to them, rather than perceived relationships between one another.
They now get state funding, depending on how many members live in a village. People begin to band together, and create nation-state type living groups. People begin to see that living together has positives and negatives. Writing introduces modern ways of keeping records of law and quantities. Witchcraft trials begin to look like the Witch Hunts of early modern Europe.

The Word “Communication” Defined
“Communication,” which is etymologically related to both “communion” and “community,” comes from the Latin communicare, which means “to make common” (Weekley, 1967, p. 338) or “to share.” DeVito (1986) expanded on this, writing that communication is “[t]he process or act of transmitting a message from a sender to a receiver, through a channel and with the interference of noise” (p. 61). Some would elaborate on this definition, saying that the message transmission is intentional and conveys meaning in order to bring about change.
Noise
Noise is defined to be “[a]nything that distorts the message intended by the source,anything that interferes with the receiver’s receiving the message as the source intended the message to be received” (p. 209). DeVito went on the identify three types of noise: physical noise, psychological noise, and semantic noise.
