Whatsapp For iphone To Get Voice-Calling

As spotted by few sources, a popup option seeking user’s permission to use the microphone appears, hinting about the voice-calling feature to hit the app at the earliest. This pop up feature will only appear if the users have not allowed WhatsApp access to the microphone.
To find it out, go to settings> Privacy > Microphone > WhatsApp > flip the slider to Off. The last update added several features like improved location sharing and fast camera access. The world’s most popular messaging app, Whatsapp has over 600 million active users around the world. With its evolution, SMS and voice message using telecom services have almost diminished. Voice-calling could be next on list, further hitting on to the revenue of telecom operators.

“Hacked by Ali El Top. We Love Hacker Because Hacking is our World. The Smart Not Who is Waiting For The Chance He is Who Looking For it. For Every Since a Legend And We Are Legend of This Since. No Limits To Know no Limits For Hacking No Limits Penetration. We Live As Flying Hawks And Die Like Immortal Lion”, the deface message by hackers.

Amazon WebPay To Be Shut Down Soon

Amazon WebPay, a free online money-transfer service, is shutting down October 13, 2014. This means you’ll no longer be able to send, receive, or request money using just your email address and the Amazon Payments webpage.
There were hints back in June that the service would be going away soon. Amazon sent out an email this week to active Amazon Payments account users notifying them it is pulling the plug.
The user agreement has also been updated to note the elimination of person-to-person payments.
Once the transition is complete, the “Send Money” option will no longer appear after Amazon Payments customers log into their accounts.
“We are addressing a customer pain point particularly better than anyone else. We’ve learned a great deal about how and when customers want to send money and will look for ways to use these lessons in the future,” Amazon said about the shut down.
So far, Amazon doesn’t offer any alternatives, but that doesn’t mean that it may not look into introducing a new service in the years to come. So far, however, this seems to be the end of this road for this type of activity on Amazon’s platforms.
Transactions initiated prior to October 13 will not be affected, and recipients will also have 30 days to claim funds before the transaction is cancelled and funds are returned to the sender. Your transaction history will still be viewable at payments.amazon.com (sign in and click “Your Account”), though it’s not clear for how long.
NSW Police Use Hacking Software To Spy On Computers And Smartphones

NSW Police(The New South Wales Police Force) are using sophisticated hacking software to spy on smartphones and computers during criminal investigations, according to documents published by WikiLeaks on Monday.
FinFisher, also known as FinSpy, is surveillance software sold by German company Gamma International. The software is typically used by intelligence and policing agencies to break into computers and mobiles and can secretly log keystrokes and take screenshots.It can also remotely capture Skype and instant messenger conversations and take control of computer microphones and web cameras to listen in.
The documents show NSW Police purchased approximately $2.5 million worth of licences for the software, starting in September 2011. They reveal the agency has held nine licences for FinSpy, FinFly, FinIntrusion, FinSpy Mobile and FinFireWire over the past three years.
NSW Police is named as the only Australian agency among many around the world to have spent a collective $72 million on the software.NSW Police did not deny the spyware’s use.
“Given this technology relates to operational capabilility [sic], it’s not appropriate to comment,” a police spokesman said.
The software gave its users the ability to virtually look over the shoulders of any target. More often than not he said the software was able to be installed remotely by its users.NSW Council for Civil Liberties spokesman Stephen Blanks said he was uncomfortable with the software’s use.
