Chiang Kuo-ching, a Taiwanese airman was executed in 1997 for the rape and murder of a five-year-old girl. Military investigators tortured a confession out of Chiang after he failed to pass a lie detector “test.” Since then, DNA evidence and a palm-print have incriminated a different person.
Clenching your butt at the wrong time will cause you to appear guilty on a polygraph. It's time to throw this system out with the water dousers.

The Amazing Orgasm Facebook scam
Sophos details the latest Facebook social engineering attack. A link purporting to be a woman having an exceptionally enthusiastic orgasm turns out to be a series of survey questions that once completed, makes money someone apparently in Finland. You'll never get to see the video. The survey questions are of the same ilk you find in connection with fake torrents.
Cleverly, the Age Verification prompt asks if you are above the age of 18 with the word "Jaa" written on the button. While Jaa appears to mean "Yes", it is actually Finnish for "Share". The trouble begins right about there.

Only 1.7% of sites blocked by Scandinavia's "child-porn" filters are actually child porn
It seems that most of the sites on the anti-kiddyporn filters are simply fake. As well, they found that simply reporting sites that have kiddy porn, instead of blocking and ignoring them, got them immediately removed at the ISP level.
Which leaves the author of this story wondering what the list is for in the first place, since it is so easy to get the sites removed.
This is the same type of lip service that has been keeping the antivirus industry alive for years. It doesn't matter that 90% of the functionality claims are useless for absolutely everything except marketing.

Internet Luring - 2 Cases, 2 different outcomes
2 Internet child luring cases that occurred recently ended with 2 very interesting outcomes.
In the first case, a police officer was charged for trying to "communicate with a minor" for some sort of evil deed. The undercover officer who busted him was found to be guilty of luring since the evidence showed that the accused officer repeatedly turned down girls who claimed to be under-aged. In the end, it sounds like the cop harassed him into the communications that occurred, and that in no way did the officer try to "persuade" the apparently under-aged teen.
In the second case, a man is charged with a similar offense for chatting up a 13 year old boy for some extra-curricular grown-up activities. The accused argued that the boy's profile stated that he was 18 years old. However, in chat transcripts, the boy repeatedly told him that he was actually 13. The accuse states that he did not believe the boy was under-aged because of *unverified* profile information, and that the boy typed much too fast to be so young.
Isn't it obvious? If you are hitting on someone online, and then they tell you repeatedly that they are under-aged.... isn't that a sign to RUN AWAY FROM THEM? Such acts of willful blindness have rarely convinced the courts, and certainly this one wasn't fooled.
In the first case, the accused appears to have been pressured and entrapped. In the second, the accused seems to have been exercising a textbook case of confirmation bias.

Bears In A Honey Trap
In the Bible, Delilah seduced Samson in order to discover the source of his super-human strength. When she got what she was after, she sold the information and services to the enemy. The use of Sex as a spy technique of compromise is exactly what makes James Bond style movies so fun to watch.
Using sex to dig up secret information is not always the stuff of fiction and mythology. A sexy girl named Katja Gerasimova, who seems to have a sexual affinity for pro-democracy activists, just happens to also be a spy for the Russian government. Once the deed has been done, she posts her raunchy sex and drug exploits on the web in order to expose the activists publicly, making them look like petty criminals and subsequently discrediting their political affiliations.
It isn't only Russia that uses sex to dig up and exploit secret information, but also India, China, Saudi Arabia, Poland, United States, and so on.
