eBay fraude : cele mai multe vin din Romania

Dupa cum putem citi aici -> http://news.com.com/eBay+targets+Romanian+fraudsters/2100-7348_3-6193591.html vedem ca :

“A huge percentage of the fraud we were seeing was from Romania,”

,

“What we found is that there is a huge gap between generations in Romania,” Henley said. “There are 25- to 30-year-old criminals that are among some of the brightest we’ve ever dealt with. But law enforcement officials and magistrates might have never even used a computer.” 

,

“Whereas we found that most of the fraud is coming from towns with populations of 50,000 or 100,000,”

si cea mai tare :

“The police presence in these towns often didn’t even have an Internet connection,” Henley said. “Some were using the same Internet cafes as the criminals, which was of grave concern to us.” 

si exista si un “happy ending” pentru Politia Romana :

 The Romanian Police Force thus became the lucky recipients of eBay-donated Internet connections, computer equipment and digital cameras.

Sincer ma bucur ca se dovedeste inca o data ca romanii au capacitate cerebrala mult peste ceilalti chiar daca si-o utilizeaza in moduri nelegale.. Interesant e ca Politia Romana este singura castigatoare din toata povestea asta.

Opera, cel mai bun browser pentru utilizatorul obisnuit.

Nu, nu sunt fan FireFox si mai ales nu sunt fan IE. Opera imi ofera tot felul de lucruri pe care nu le gasesc la alte browser-e.

Un exemplu este functia de zoom (+, -, * pe blocul numeric al tastaturii) care
imi protejeaza ochii iar oamenii din IT inteleg foarte bine lucrul asta.

Are Sesiuni (si FireFox se pare ca are) astfel incat daca se opreste tensiunea sau cade sistemul de operare (cam rar, stiu)
nu pierd nimic. Bineinteles ca are tab-uri, middle-click dar are si alte chestii pe care firefox nu le are. De exemplu daca
scriu ”g <ceva>”  va cauta in google imediat. In FireFox trebuie sa scriu “google” in loc de “g”. Si mai are si “Paste and Go”
care ma ajuta sa ”lipesc” ceva in bara de URL fara sa mai trebuiasca sa apas
ENTER sau altceva similar.
