India’s Top Court Fails to Address ‘Critical Problems’ of Giant Biometrics Cache

 

India’s Supreme Court on Wednesday overhauled some of the rules guiding its biometric identification database - the largest in the world - while affirming that the database does not infringe on the privacy rights of citizens.

 

The program, called Aadhaar, or "foundation" in Hindi, was launched in 2010 with the goal of giving every citizen of India an identification number. With more than 1.2 billion people enrolled in the program, according to the government — a number nearing that of the population — the government has been able to crack down on corruption and fraud when the state distributes food rations and fuel, it says.

 

But critics maintain some skepticism. "Aadhaar also has a number of security issues with its implementation. A primary concern is that the Aadhaar document itself is a piece of paper that is unverifiable without special computer software, and though the card should be free, some agencies are charging for it," web developer and technologist Chris Garaffa told Sputnik News Wednesday. "These two issues seem to counter the claim that Aadhaar can be used to combat fraud."

 

There are also concerns that the database could be hacked. The Unique Identification Authority of India, the organization which runs Aadhaar, has "suffered data leaks of the private information — such as financial transactions — linked to the Aadhaar program," Garaffa added.

 

The program uses photographs, fingerprints and eye scans to verify people.

 

"As with all technologies, the impact of the implementation is a social, economic and political question," Garaffa said. "A secure and unified identity program could provide immense opportunities for the distribution of resources and the general welfare of the public, if implemented consciously and properly."

Deviant Sexual Practices are Harmful

 

Homosexuality and transgenderism are actively promoted with increasing regularity by governments, pop culture and public education. Business owners, such as bakers, florists and musicians, who decline to promote same-sex events are frequently placed in a legally perilous situation by LGBT activists. Some churches are compromising their traditional teachings on the subject in order to be politically acceptable (and thereby promptly experience a loss in church memberships).

 

This pressure is occurring because the actual facts about the harmful effects of deviant sexual practices are not being disclosed. Instead, homosexuality and transgenderism are being promoted as being just another choice of sexual practice. This is truly scandalous and completely unfair to the LGBT community. Medical ethics require that they be alerted to the serious consequences that can arise from their participation in certain sexual practices.

 

The Findings of Studies on Deviant Sexual Practices

 

In just the past month, studies have disclosed alarming problems facing homosexuals and the transgendered. For example, the July 2018 issue of the American Journal of Men’s Health, disclosed that nearly half of the men in same-sex partnerships suffer some form of abuse at the hands of their partners. The study disclosed that 46% suffered some form of intimate partner abuse in the past year, including physical and sexual violence, emotional abuse and controlling behaviour. It also found that this domestic abuse in male couples increases the risk of HIV infections because victims have little or no control over condom use or when and how the couple has sex. The authors of the study claim that this is a result of lack of communication about HIV status and HIV prevention, which is common in abusive relationships. The study also found a strong association with internalized homophobia by the same-sex partners. This is caused by the individual’s stress in struggling with his sexual identity, which leads him to inflict physical and emotional abuse on his partner.

 

These findings are consistent with a 2015 U.S. Centers for Disease Control survey, which found that 26% of homosexual men, 37% of bisexual men, 44% of lesbians, and 61% of bisexual women experienced rape, physical violence, and/or stalking by an intimate partner at some point in their lives.

 

According to Statistics Canada, homosexuals experienced the highest violent victimization rate in 2014, at 207 incidents per 1,000 population, compared to 69 per 1,000 for heterosexuals.

More Dangerous than ‘Gay Marriage’: The Federal Equality Act

http://barbwire.com/2015/08/23/more-dangerous-than-gay-marriage-the-federal-equality-act/

 

As Chai Feldblum [Jewish Lesbian EEOC Chia Feldblum Re-nominated for 2nd Term (May 2013)], Obama‘s federal EEOC [Equal Employment Opportunity Commissioner] pick, once admitted:

 

“[In the contest of SORs and the First Amendment] Sexual liberty should win in

 

most cases. There can be a conflict between religious liberty and sexual liberty, but in almost all cases the sexual liberty should win because that’s the only way that the dignity of gay people can be affirmed in any realistic manner”

 

… “I’m having a hard time coming up with any case in which religious liberty should win.”

China's New Party Line: We're Trying To Save The World From The US

 

China has accused the United States of “trade bullyism practices” that have become “the greatest source of uncertainty and risk for the recovery of the global economy.” And their new party line has become: “we’re trying to save the world from the US government.”

 

In a 71-page paper, the Chinese government came out swinging against the US’s efforts to ignite a disastrous trade war. They accused President Donald Trump’s administration of “trade bullyism practices” but worse, say they are attempting to save the world. According to CNBC, the document, which was published on Monday, outlined the Chinese government’s response to criticisms leveled against it by the US. Issues addressed in the report include the trade imbalance between the two countries, Beijing’s subsidy policy and alleged intellectual property theft by China’s companies.

 

Beijing has also called out Washington for its policies that it “inhibit fair competition in the US” — such as subsidies — and allegedly abusing national security laws to obstruct the “normal investment activities” of Chinese companies on American shores.

 

“China does not want a trade war, but it is not afraid of one and will fight one if necessary,” Beijing said in the document.

 

“We have a highly resilient economy, an enormous market, and the hard-working, talented, and united Chinese people. We also have the support of all countries in the world that reject protectionism, unilateralism, and hegemony.”

 

“The US government has taken extreme trade protectionist measures, which have undermined the international economic order, caused damage to China-US trade and trade relations around the world, disrupted the global value chain and the international division of labor, upset market expectations, and led to violent swings in the international financial and commodity markets. It has become the greatest source of uncertainty and risk for the recovery of the global economy,” the paper said.

 

American officials have attempted to claim that China is, in fact, the aggressor in the trade war because it took advantage of the US’s consumer mentality for many years.

 

The document was released on the same day as an escalation in the trade dispute between the world’s two largest economies. The Trump administration levied tariffs on an additional $200 billion of Chinese goods on Monday, while the government of Chinese President Xi Jinping retaliated by targeting roughly $60 billion worth of U.S. imports.

Mexican Army Seizes 950 Pounds of Meth, Fentanyl Bound for U.S.

 

The Mexican Army seized 950 pounds of methamphetamine, fentanyl, and heroin on Sunday in Baja California–adding to the number of significant drug busts within the past two months.

 

The 67th Infantry Battalion at a security checkpoint in El Rosario contacted the driver of a Chevrolet 3500 truck transporting two horses, according to local media. Troops detected a false compartment in the bed, storing plastic containers filled with illicit drugs.
