Scott Cleland argues that Alphabet-Google displayed illegal monopoly behavior from 2007-2017 through obstructing law enforcement, colluding with competitors, and anti-competitive acquisitions. A change in administration provides an opportunity for antitrust investigations from a new perspective, which could emerge as a "slam dunk" antitrust case against Alphabet-Google for illegally dividing the digital ad market with Facebook.

FIRST THREAD NEEDED TO BE REPLIED TO
The Result of a Decline in Business Ethics
Business ethics is defined by “the application of ethics to the special problems and opportunities businesspeople experience” (Kubasek, Browne, Barkacs, Herron & Dhooge, 2016, p. 16). When ethical decisions appear in a person’s life, more likely than not, a plethora of choices are considered when determining the best course to take for justifying our actions. In many cases, we consider our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, his heavenly father God, our parents, our spouses, our children, friends, colleagues, physical and mental emotions, plus more before committing to one-way or the other. However, when the word “business” is placed in front of ethics, the ramifications are often much larger, including monetary value, and the effect decisions will have on stakeholders and the public. First Timothy 6 verses 10 states “For the love of money is the root of all-evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows” (KJV). By highlighting the definition of Business Ethics as well as 1 Timothy 6:10, we expose the very public lambasting of Volkswagen Group, whom recently stated “11 million of its diesel cars worldwide were equipped with software that was used to cheat on emissions test” (Lippe, 2015). A multitude of responses, questions, and political backlash reduced Volkswagen’s image in the public, however, we will identify the steps that should have been enforced to prevent this incident, starting at the managerial level and ending with the Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
As children of God, we are instilled with the rationale between what is right and wrong. James 4 verse 17 (KJV) states “Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth (it) not, to him it is sin”. We are endowed with the conscious capability to distinguish between doing something right and doing something wrong, however, when we choose to do something wrong, it is considered a Sin. Other factors may weigh heavily for or against the determination of right or wrong to include family beliefs, childhood, and life experiences. Nevertheless, as employees working in the Legal o ...

Wild West U.S. Internet policy and law incites Uncivil War, social media oligarchy, and minority rule.
This first-of-its-kind analysis spotlights how Section 230’s self-defeating and counterproductive, U.S.
Internet unaccountability policy/law has incited a protracted, U.S. Uncivil War of lawless social
media oligarchy predations vs. lawful government protections.
In protecting technology from people by prohibiting protections of people from technology, Section
230 instigates an Uncivil War of unfettered technology interests vs. unprotected people interests.
This government imposed, above the law, inequality on autopilot, is destroying individual liberty,
equality, and rights, and America’s democracy, justice, and national security. In addition, it causes
countless casualties; and makes U.S. Wild West Internet policy/law America’s worst enemy.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

A Convincing Antitrust Suit against Alphabet-Google Emerges
- 1. A Convincing Antitrust Suit against Alphabet-Google Emerges By: Scott Cleland
- 2. A Convincing Antitrust Suit against Alphabet-Google Emerges A proven thought leader, Scott Cleland operates GoogleMonitor.com, which advocates for greater accountability and transparency by the world’s leading search engine. As an internetization strategist, Scott Cleland has written a number of articles on emerging trends, including “The Trump DOJ ‘Slam Dunk’ Antitrust Case Against Alphabet-Google.”
- 3. A Convincing Antitrust Suit against Alphabet-Google Emerges Mr. Cleland begins by describing classic illegal monopoly behavior as being synonymous with Alphabet-Google of 2007-17 in which the company displayed consistent patterns of law enforcement obstruction, collusion, and anti-competitive acquisition behavior. A particular enabler was the FTC’s 2007 approval of Google-DoubleClick and the 2010 approval of Google-AdMob, which “substantially lessened competition.”
- 4. A Convincing Antitrust Suit against Alphabet-Google Emerges As Mr. Cleland describes it, a change in administration presents the ideal opportunity to delve into evidence from a new FTC and DOJ investigative perspective. If pursued, a “slam dunk” antitrust case of the United States v. Alphabet-Google emerges.
- 5. A Convincing Antitrust Suit against Alphabet-Google Emerges According to Mr. Cleland, the single most illegal act involved divvying up the digital ad market between Google and Facebook, with the two companies agreeing not to compete against each other's core businesses. This convinced Facebook to end its Internet search syndication partnership with Microsoft-Yahoo in 2014.
