<p>Tim Cook and other Apple executives have been chatty about the company’s interest in virtual and augmented reality in past months.

<p>Regular readers will know I’m a <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2016/07/14/review-scrivener-for-ios/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">big fan</a> of <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2013/12/20/review-scrivener-the-must-have-software-for-would-be-novelists-everywhere/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Scrivener</a>, having used the app to write <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Ben-Lovejoy/e/B00UD6NMMO/ref=dp_byline_cont_pop_ebooks_1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">three novels</a>, two novellas and a travel guide. But when I accidentally found myself working on a screenplay for a comedy series, I thought I’d try the industry-standard software for the job: Final Draft.</p>
<p>Final Draft comes highly recommended, used by all the top studios and praised by such screenwriting talents as Aaron Sorkin, James Cameron, JJ Abrams, Sofia Coppola and more. Ben Stiller said that ‘Final Draft is the only screenwriting software I have ever used, and it is the only one I ever will use.’</p>
<p>But priced at a hefty $250 for the Mac app and another $20 for the iPad companion app, it’s not a trivial investment for most of us. So what does it do to earn such praise and justify the cost … ?</p>

But the internet isn’t always positive or welcoming for everyone.<br/><br/>Nearly all of us will have come across comments or content online that shocked or even offended us, sometimes leaving us feeling isolated or powerless to change the conversation. For young people in particular, this sense of vulnerability can be heightened especially when something is shared on social media by a trusted friend.<br/><br/>That’s why we’re launching Internet Citizens, a series of day-long workshops for 13-18 year olds in cities across the U.K., as part of our global YouTube <a href="https://www.youtube.com/yt/creators-for-change/">Creators for Change</a> program, which supports creators who are tackling social issues and promoting awareness, tolerance and empathy on their YouTube channels. The workshops will help young people find a positive sense of belonging online and teach skills on how to participate safely and responsibly, and use tools such as flagging and comment moderation to make the web better for all. Some of the specific topics include what could be done in response to offensive speech, fake news, echo chambers and how they could use video to bring diverse groups together.<br/><br/>Our curriculum was designed by experts from the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, in partnership with UK Youth and Livity, and was also informed by our work with an advisory council including Faith Associates, Active Change Foundation, the MET Police, Demos and the Diana Award. Hosting these workshops are Alain “Fusion” Clapham and Efe Ezekiel, along with YouTube creator <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4w87hy0xlGd_GXbXrLOaIA">Nadir Nahdi</a>, Founder of BENI, all of whom have mastered the art of using their voice and creativity to drive social change.<br/><br/>We’ve spent the last few weeks testing the workshop before our launch today in Liverpool, and have seen some promising results. With the help of UK Youth, we’ll visit youth clubs across the country over the coming months, and we’ll also explore ways to work further with youth workers and other partners to scale the program.<br/><br/>This is just one part of our commitment to a better web. Alongside this, we’re exploring more innovative ways to use technology and to partner with experts to help us tackle hate speech online. We’ll share more updates on these areas in the coming weeks.<br/><br/>And Fusion said it best: The internet is what we want it to be. It can be an unpleasant place where people misunderstand and deliberately deceive each other. Or it can be this amazing place where we can share, collaborate, understand and help each other.<br/><br/>To find out more about Internet Citizens, please visit our <a href="http://yt.be/internetcitizens">website</a>.</p><p></p></div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/UJU_0YRmxGE" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Fri, 21 Apr 2017 08:00:00 +0000Fri, 21 Apr 2017 08:00:00 +0000The Official Google BlogNew Snapdragon 835 Windows 10 mobile PCs due this year

In the second half of 2016, we received over 45,000 government requests for user data worldwide. This is the most government requests we’ve received for user data in a six-month period since we released our first transparency report in 2010.</p><p>In many ways, this shouldn’t be surprising. As more people use more of our services, and as we offer new ones, it is natural that we are seeing an increase in government requests. For example, Gmail had around <a href="https://googleblog.blogspot.no/2012/06/chrome-apps-google-io-your-web.html">425 million active users</a> in 2012, and <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/gmail-has-1-billion-monthly-active-users-2016-2">more than 1 billion</a> by 2016. And as digital evidence increasingly becomes part of criminal investigations, other companies are seeing similar trends. We of course continue to require appropriate legal process for these requests, resist overbroad requests not narrowly calibrated to legitimate law enforcement requirements, and reform modernization of data surveillance laws. </p><p>Cross-border requests for data continue to account for a substantial portion of overall requests, with over 31,000 in the second half of 2016 coming from outside of the United States.. This volume underscores the need for an improved international framework that meets legitimate law enforcement needs and ensures high standards of due process, privacy and human rights. The Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT) process facilitates the production of digital evidence in cross-border investigations (when the crime occurs in one country but data is held by a company in another country). But the MLAT process is often slow and cumbersome: on average, it takes <a href="https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/sites/default/files/docs/2013-12-12_rg_final_report.pdf">10 months to process an MLAT request</a> in the United States. That’s a long time for an investigator to wait.</p><p>Without better and faster ways to collect cross-border evidence, countries will be tempted to take unilateral actions to deal with a fundamentally multilateral problem. A sustainable framework for handling digital evidence in legitimate cross-border investigations will help avoid a chaotic, conflicting patchwork of data location proposals and <i>ad hoc</i> surveillance measures that may threaten privacy and generate uncertainty, without fundamentally advancing legitimate law enforcement and national security interests.</p><p>We believe that governments can develop solutions that appropriately balance the various interests at stake. This includes respecting the legitimate privacy rights of users, wherever they are, as well as the obligations of governments to investigate crimes and protect their residents. The conversation should include a broad group of stakeholders, including not just law enforcement and national security perspectives, but also the voices of citizens, civil society groups and providers of information services that cross national borders.</p><p>This discussion will raise difficult questions about the scope of government surveillance powers, the extent of digital jurisdiction, the importance of rapid investigations, and privacy rights in the Internet age—fundamental issues that can’t be adequately addressed by courts using antiquated legal standards or by governments acting in an <i>ad hoc</i> fashion.</p><p>We look forward to sharing more thoughts about the legal frameworks that can address some of these challenges in the coming weeks and months. And we look forward to working with relevant stakeholders to craft viable and lasting solutions. </p><p></p></div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/e4k9ILF2pRE" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Thu, 20 Apr 2017 18:00:00 +0000Thu, 20 Apr 2017 18:00:00 +0000The Official Google BlogThis Week on Windows: New Windows 10 PCs, Forza Horizon 3, and more

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>Wait—that daily briefing was for my wife, who set up Google Home for the family. What if I want to hear results that are right for me?</p></div></div>
<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>Starting today, I can—and so can you. We’re adding the ability for up to six people to connect their account to one Google Home. So now when I ask my Google Assistant for help, it can distinguish my voice from my wife’s and I can hear my own personal playlists, my own commute time, my own schedule and more. </p></div></div>

Once you see your Google Home in the list, select “Link your account.” From there, you'll teach your Assistant to understand it’s you, not your partner, family member or roommate—and vice versa, based on who’s speaking. For certain features, like personalized music and commute, you’ll also need to set up your preferences within the app. </p></div></div>

Those phrases are then analyzed by a neural network, which can detect certain characteristics of a person's voice. From that point on, any time you say "Ok Google" or "Hey Google" to your Google Home, the neural network will compare the sound of your voice to its previous analysis so it can understand if it's you speaking or not. This comparison takes place only on your device, in a matter of milliseconds.</p><p>This feature will start rolling out today for Google Home users in the U.S., but will expand to the U.K. in the coming months.<br/></p>Your Assistant should be personal to you—and now it is.

With a huge range of devices on multiple platforms used by over 61,000 employees, it’s no small feat.</p><p>Google’s Technical Infrastructure organization is tasked with protecting employees against sophisticated adversaries, while ensuring that corporate security practices do not interfere with Google’s culture of innovation, freedom and flexibility. It accomplishes this with a tiered access security model that categorizes corporate services and devices into trust tiers to determine access. </p><p>Today, we are <a href="https://lp.google-mkto.com/rs/248-TPC-286/images/eBook%202%20-%20Tiered%20Access_v5%20-%20Google%20Cloud%20Branding.pdf">sharing details about our tiered access approach</a> so that IT admins can use it to deploy devices in their organizations.</p><p>In contrast to traditional security models, tiered access looks at a wide range of variables to make granular decisions regarding access. These variables go beyond simple user authentications—for example, device state, group permissions and required level of trust for a particular employee role are all taken into account.</p>First, internal services are associated with a trust tier according to the sensitivity of the data. A service can have one minimum trust tier or a more granular model of access where components and/or capabilities (e.g. read or write access) have different minimum trust tiers based on risk. <p></p></div></div>

On successful user verification, access to services is granted only if the assessed risk profile of the device matches the required trust tier.</p><p>When implementing tiered access, there are three main components to consider:</p><ul><li><p>Client base and data sources: what is the composition of your organization’s fleet of devices and what data do you have about them?</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Access intelligence and gateways: what technology can you use to evaluate a set of policies and make access decisions?

Arguments break out as the temperature reaches unbearable levels, yet no one does anything to save the restaurant. As smoke billows out of the kitchen, you realize that—like the other characters in the story—you’ve been sitting back while the drama unfolds. You become a central figure in the story itself.</p><p>We wanted this VR experience to resonate with everyone, so we focused the narrative on something that has a widespread impact—climate change. Then, we built “Tabel” to be viewable on as many different platforms and in as many ways as possible, especially on mobile browsers. “Tabel” was created in <a href="https://blog.google/products/chrome/experience-virtual-reality-web-chrome/">WebVR</a>, making it easily viewable on any smartphone via the Chrome browser in 360 video mode or with a VR headset. The viewing experience becomes immersive when viewing the film with <a href="https://vr.google.com/daydream/headset/">Daydream View</a> or <a href="https://vr.google.com/cardboard/get-cardboard/">Google Cardboard</a>. “Tabel” was filmed using the Odyssey, the <a href="https://vr.google.com/jump/">Jump</a> camera created by Google and GoPro.<br/></p><p>“Tabel” is the latest in a series of experiments from Google’s <a href="https://www.thinkwithgoogle.com/collections/art-copy-code.html">Art Copy and Code project</a>.
