Final Ethics project part 1

I would like to discuss a computing case which China blocked Facebook on July 2009. The reason was that Xinjiang independence activists were using Facebook as part of their communications network. This case started from July 2009 Ürümqi riots. On that day Xinjiang Independents activists caused 197 people died and 1721 people got hurt. Therefore Chinese government took that case seriously. In China, Chinese government had right to ban any kind of post from social medias at any time because these social medias accepted some Chinese rules. However, FaceBook’s service providers did not comply with the rules because they emphasize freedom of speech for reason against that rules. However, China did not allowed any business ran under Chinese laws, so Facebook was block. In my opinion, I did not agree China block Facebook. On that time, blocking Facebook maybe useful. Now more than more people have good IT knowledge, so people have so many way to use Facebook in China. For example, they just need to change VPN, and they can use it. The principle of problem is that Chinese government want their country be safer. Blocking may not solve this problem efficiently. Also independents can use other social medias instead of Facebook. Blocking Facebook may not a useful strategy.

Ethical Hacking Lab 11

I am having a problem with Section 3 step 5 which is on page 30. After clicking the hyperlink in the email, the XP victim PC does not make the connection to the msfconsole on the Kali server. I do not get the screen as shown in Figure 56 on page 31. When I run sessions -l there are not any sessions. Needless to say I redid all the critical steps in section two and still no luck. I even tried copy/pasting the hyperlink into the URL locator in IE. Eventually my lab timed out.
