POPSWhere's My Vote? 1. In Solidarity with the Green Movement, protests are being held July 25 " that is this Saturday - in more than 100 cities worldwide. This initiative is being spearheaded by United 4 Iran. As I’m not just a journalist but also a human rights activist, I will personally join a protest and strongly urge everyone else to participate and to get their friends and loved ones to accompany them. Shirin Ebadi will be joining the protest in Amsterdam. For information on where they’re being held, please visit: www.united4iran.com As part of the protest, a green scroll will be exhibited close to the Eiffel Tower from 7 to 9 PM. Link here: OpenDNS 2.

POPSOpenDNS for the non-technically inclined When I mistype a URL in the location bar, Verizon hijacks my request and sends me to a B.S. "search results" page (full of ads and spam). This post is a little starter for how to circumvent your ISP's DNS server with OpenDNS.

POPSSchneier on the SANS Top 20 Vulnerabilities Need to proxy connections to the Internet and STRICTLY limit where people can go. Unfortunately, there is very little desire to do this and many are willing to accept living in a compromised environment. At home, I have been modifying each machine's 'HOSTS' files ('There's no place like 127.0.0.1'), using K9 Web Content filtering, and recently been using OpenDNS to limit where my users (family) can go. Also, I have killed MSIE and have forced all users to use Firefox with the NoScript enabled. I have played with a virtual proxy that works well (especially when configured with 'Hosts', K9, OpenDNS, Antivirus, and FW blocking of all other hosts besides the proxy. When I figure out how to do the failover piece to keep the availability at 99%, I will implement it for good. Nothing is full-proof, but I sleep better at nights! (Thanks to RF-NCNF for the OpenDNS and NoScript tips!).
