@mhsabir

As I said, by India I actually mean Bharat.

And if u see, "United Stats of America" is from angle separate regions.

Same Indi/Bharat was unity of separate kingdoms.

Datafox: BSNL Broadband Bandwidth Monitoring Extension For Firefox

I finally managed to get through to the site and the details for October are still not available, as essbebe stated.

essbebe, so now there are three types of usage sites?
1) Old 10.x.x.x sites (old users)
2) data.bsnl.in ?
3) selfcare sites (new users)?

I thought the selfcare site had superceded data.bsnl.in - do you know, more accurately how users are split between these three sites? Can selfcare users get their details on data.bsnl.in too?

Thanks for the screenshot.

Massive Security Vulnerability In HTC Android Devices (EVO 3D, 4G, Thunderbolt, Others) Exposes Phone Numbers, GPS, SMS, Emails Addresses, Much More

----------

Quote:

In recent updates to some of its devices, HTC introduces a suite of logging tools that collected information. Lots of information. LOTS. Whatever the reason was, whether for better understanding problems on users' devices, easier remote analysis, corporate evilness - it doesn't matter. If you, as a company, plant these information collectors on a device, you better be DAMN sure the information they collect is secured and only available to privileged services or the user, after opting in.

That is not the case. What Trevor found is only the tip of the iceberg - we are all still digging deeper - but currently any app on affected devices that requests a single android.permission.INTERNET (which is normal for any app that connects to the web or shows ads) can get its hands on:

the list of user accounts, including email addresses and sync status for each
last known network and GPS locations and a limited previous history of locations
phone numbers from the phone log
SMS data, including phone numbers and encoded text (not sure yet if it's possible to decode it, but very likely)
system logs (both kernel/dmesg and app/logcat), which includes everything your running apps do and is likely to include email addresses, phone numbers, and other private info

US have even developed missile shield system .. But tht doesn't mean countries should stop developing missiles now ..
If someone can shoot down the gps satellite then so can we ..
Can't stop making a weapon thinking abt a certain thing which can happen in future ..
If it is going to affect our weapons.. then it is going to affect smart weapons of other countries too ..
