Evidenti passi in avanti per WhatsApp sulla privacy coi prossimi aggiornamenti

Spread the love

Saranno mesi ricchi di novità per WhatsApp, tramite gli aggiornamenti che avremo modo di toccare con mano su dispositivi Android ed iPhone. Anche in termini di privacy, secondo quanto venuto a galla stamane. WhatsApp potrebbe eventualmente consentire agli utenti di scegliere tra più di una dozzina di durate per la scomparsa dei messaggi. Una versione aggiornata di questa funzione è stata individuata nel client beta desktop di WhatsApp, ma sono in fase di sviluppo anche ulteriori durate per l’app mobile.

Quali novità sono in programma con WhatsApp in termini di privacy

Al momento della stesura di questo documento, gli utenti di WhatsApp possono scegliere tra tre durate per la scomparsa dei messaggi. Sono 24 ore o 7 e 90 giorni, senza altre opzioni intermedie, il che probabilmente non offre molto spazio agli utenti di WhatsApp per personalizzare questi parametri sulla privacy.

Tuttavia, come notato da WaBetaInfo su una build beta per l’app desktop WhatsApp per sistema operativo Windows, Meta sta ora lavorando per aggiungere altre 12 durate per i messaggi che scompaiono. L’app desktop WhatsApp è stata rilasciata lo scorso anno ed è completamente compatibile con la gamma di laptop Samsung Galaxy Book. Insomma, ci sono tutti i presupposti per andare incontro ad un corposo aggiornamento della nota app di messaggistica, attraverso il quale potremo toccare con mano qualcosa come una dozzina di modi in più per controllare la privacy di WhatsApp.

Questa versione beta dell’app desktop WhatsApp offre una dozzina di durate in più per la scomparsa dei messaggi oltre a quelle esistenti. Includono 1, 3, 6 e 12 ore; 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 14, 21, 30, 60, 180 giorni e un anno intero.

In totale, questo aggiornamento beta offre non meno di 15 durate per la scomparsa dei messaggi, il che dovrebbe dare molto più controllo sulla privacy nelle mani degli utenti di WhatsApp. Insomma, finalmente ci sarà la tanto richiesta flessibilità invocata dagli utenti Android ed iPhone per approcciare nel modo giusto una funzione di suo molto utile, ma fino a questo momento troppo limitata.

Nessuno sa quando questa nuova funzionalità beta potrebbe essere pubblicata su build pubbliche di WhatsApp. Ma almeno in teoria, ogni volta che verranno rilasciate queste durate aggiuntive per la scomparsa dei messaggi, dovrebbero essere attivate sia per desktop che per dispositivi mobili all’incirca nello stesso momento.

Staremo a vedere quali saranno le prossime mosse da parte dello staff e dei tecnici, nel tentativo di rendere migliore WhatsApp sul versante privacy. Del resto, ci sono richieste sempre più particolari che giungono dal pubblico sotto questo punto di vista.

  2. Sky-gazers may get a good chance to see fireballs streak across the night sky this week. Two meteor showers — the Alpha Capricornids and Southern Delta Aquariids — will reach their peak and another is ramping up.

    The Alpha Capricornids meteor shower, which is best known for producing very bright meteors called fireballs that may look like shooting stars, will be most visible at 1 a.m. ET Wednesday, according to Robert Lunsford, fireball report coordinator for the American Meteor Society. Its radiant — the point at which the meteor streaks seem to originate — is in the Capricorn constellation.

    The Alpha Capricornids are visible all over the world but are usually best seen from the Southern Hemisphere, in places such as Australia and Africa, according to Bill Cooke, the lead for NASA’s Meteoroid Environments Office. These meteors are expected to appear at a rate of three to five per hour. If you are viewing from the Northern Hemisphere, keep your eyes low along the southern sky to catch a glimpse.

    If you stay up later, you’ll be able to see the Southern Delta Aquariids reach peak activity at 3 a.m. ET on Wednesday, said Lunsford. The Southern Delta Aquariids, which also are most visible in the Southern Hemisphere, make for a stronger shower than the Capricornids; people located in parts of the Northern Hemisphere such as the US can expect to view up to 10 to 15 meteors per hour, while those in the Southern Hemisphere may see 20 to 25 per hour.
    The Aquariids appear to stream from the southern part of the Aquarius constellation, which is around 40 degrees east of the Capricorn constellation, according to Lunsford: “They’re going to kind of do a battle, shooting back and forth at each other.”

    Both showers will be visible through August 13, though there is some disagreement about the date on which their peaks will occur. While experts at the American Meteor Society say peak activity will occur Tuesday night into early Wednesday morning, those at NASA say it will happen Wednesday night going into Thursday.

    “The time of a meteor shower peak is not constant from year-to-year. It can vary by plus or minus a day or two,” Cooke said.

    But missing the peak, according to Lunsford, is nothing to fret about. “It’s not a real sharp peak …You can go out (on) the 31st or the 29th and see pretty much the same activity.”

    For the best viewing, avoid areas with bright lights and objects that could obscure your view of the sky, such as tall trees or buildings. Picking a spot with a higher altitude, like a mountain or hill, may make it easier to spot these showers.

  3. Ruby Williams’ birthday was not your average 18th. She celebrated it on the Klamath River, with a group of young people making a historic journey paddling from the river’s headwaters in southern Oregon to its mouth in the Pacific Ocean, just south of Crescent City, California. It marked the first time in a century that the descent has been possible, after the recent removal of four dams allowed the river to flow freely.

    Williams, together with fellow paddler Keeya Wiki, 17, spoke to CNN on day 15 of their month-long journey, which they are due to complete on Friday. At this point, they had just 141 miles (227 kilometers) of the 310-mile (499 kilometer) journey left to go and had already passed through some of the most challenging rapids, such as those at the “Big Bend” and “Hell’s Corner” sections of the river.

    Both were exhausted and hadn’t showered in days — although they promised they “aren’t completely feral.” However, despite tired minds, they were steadfast in their commitment.
    “We are reclaiming our river, reclaiming our sport,” said Williams.

    “We are getting justice,” Wiki, who is from the Yurok Tribe, added. “And making sure that my people and all the people on the Klamath River can live how we’re supposed to.”

    The Klamath River runs deep in the cultures of the native peoples living in its basin, who historically used dugout canoes to travel along it. They view it as a living person, a relative, who they can depend on — and in turn protect.

    “It’s our greatest teacher, our family member,” said Williams, who is from the Karuk Tribe, which occupies lands along the middle course of the Klamath. “We revolve ceremonies around it, like when the salmon start running (the annual migration from the sea back to freshwater rivers to spawn), we know it’s time to start a family.”

    Historically, it was also a lifeline, providing them with an abundance of fish. The Klamath was once the third-largest salmon-producing river on the West Coast of the US. But between 1918 and 1966, electric utility company California Oregon Power Company (which later became PacifiCorp), built a series of hydroelectric dams along the river’s course, which cut off the upstream pathway for migrating salmon, and the tribes lost this cultural and commercial resource.
    For decades, native people — such as the Karuk and Yurok tribes — demanded the removal of the dams and restoration of the river. But it was only in 2002, after low water levels caused a disease outbreak that killed more than 30,000 fish, that momentum really started to build for their cause.

    Twenty years later, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission finally approved a plan to remove four dams on the lower Klamath River. This was when Paddle Tribal Waters was set up by the global organization Rios to Rivers to reconnect native children to the ancient river. Believing that native peoples ought to be the first to descend the newly restored river, the program started by teaching local kids from the basin how to paddle in whitewater. Wiki and Williams were among them — neither had kayaked before then.

  4. According to Cook, having multiple meteor showers occur at the same time is a common phenomenon. “For example, during the Perseids, you have the remnants of the Southern Delta Aquariids going on,” he said.

    Right now, the Alpha Capricornids, the Southern Delta Aquariids and Perseids are all active and while the Perseids is not at its peak , you might still see some of its meteors this week. There’s also the possibility of seeing 10 to 12 meteors that aren’t associated with any of these showers, according to Lunsford.

    Both the Alpha Capricornids and Southern Delta Aquariids become visible annually when Earth passes through debris fields left by two Jupiter-family comets: 169P/NEAT (Alpha Capricornids) and P2008/Y12 (Southern Delta Aquariids). Cook also noted that, each year, “we’re passing closer to the core of the material that produces (the Alpha Capricornids) shower and in 200 years, it’ll be the strongest shower that’s visible from Earth. It’ll actually produce more than 1,000 (meteor streaks) an hour, which is quite a bit stronger than it is now.”

    For those interested in contributing to astronomers’ understanding of meteors, this week presents the perfect opportunity to count how many meteors you see in the night sky and report them to places like the American Meteor Society.

    Upcoming Meteor Showers
    Here are the other meteor showers to anticipate in 2025 and their peak dates, according to the American Meteor Society and EarthSky.

    Lunar and solar eclipses in 2025
    Two eclipse events will occur as summer ends.

    A total lunar eclipse will be visible in Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, parts of eastern South America, Alaska and Antarctica on September 7 and 8, according to Time and Date.

    A lunar eclipse occurs when Earth passes exactly between the sun and the moon, throwing the latter into shadow and making it appear darker or dimmed.

    When the moon sits in the darkest part of Earth’s shadow, the sun’s rays bend around Earth and refract light on the moon’s surface, which gives it a reddish hue, according to London’s Natural History Museum. Some people call the result a “blood moon.”

    Two weeks after the total lunar eclipse, a partial solar eclipse will be visible in parts of Australia, the Atlantic, the Pacific and Antarctica on September 21.

    Solar eclipses occur when the moon moves between the sun and Earth, blocking part of the sun’s surface from view, according to NASA. This creates a crescent shape — as if something took a “bite” out of the sun.
