Google's move to deliver services and technologies related to telecommunications networks, such as Project and Project Loon Fi, had caused concern that the company plans to foray into the field of telecommunications services.
Responding to that, Sergey Brin, co-founder of Google, during a visit to Jakarta, on Monday, denied that Google has no plans in that direction (into a telecom operator). According to him, for now Google prefers to cooperate with telecom operators.
Therefore, to be able to do it independently, required permits related spectrum license to use, given such permission is currently only held by telecommunications operators. Therefore, it chose to focus on cooperation with local operators.
"We are still focused on cooperation with local operators. Previously, we had also just make cooperation with the three carriers, such as XL, Telkomsel and Indosat. And for now the focus is still on it," said Brin, when met at the Ministry of Communication, Monday (12/28/2015)
On the occasion, Brin also confirmed that the latest Google services, Project Fi, only to be held in the United States. However, he did not dismiss if it also opens up the possibility of cooperation with other parties outside the United States.
"Project Fi is the only thing we do in the US. We do have an interest to collaborate with several parties outside the United States related Fi technologies. But, for implementation only in the United States," said Brin.
Project Fi itself is a mobile service delivery program that is easy and fast, direct to the phone that Google initiated. For the United States alone, Google is working with two well-known mobile operators, Sprint and T-Mobile.
Not only cooperate with the cellular service provider, Project Fi can also work with Wi-Fi networks. In order to do this, this technology will directly connect mobile phone users to open Wi-Fi networks and is considered to have the most excellent and stable network.

Google Preparing Balloons Fly High in the Sky Indonesia
Google is preparing to release the internet bubble - Project Loon - to start a real adventure in the sky Indonesia.
It was not a real adventure, but a test that will be carried out by operators in Indonesia, namely Telkomsel, Indosat and XL Axiata.
"We are conducting discussions commercial telecom operators in the world and will soon fly in various regions, such as Indonesia, to trial this year," said Astro Teller, Head of Alphabet for X Innovation, in a blog, as quoted from PCMag on Wednesday (17/02/2016).
Teller does not talk further when exactly this internet balloon flown. However, Google had already announced its official partnership with the three major carriers in Indonesia in October 2015.
Indeed, every effort is never easy. Even Google engineers reportedly overwhelmed by the ideas related to the internet bubble forms - ranging from a spherical shape, pillow, until it resembles a whale biru-- before determining the prototype in use today.
"With the balloon there, we can navigate to float up to 2 miles vertically into the sky and 500 meters from where we were headed as far as 20,000 kilometers. Years ago, there are balloons that have floated to the whole world for 19 times in 187 days. We still need to lower the cost of the balloon, "said Teller.
Project Loon was tested along the 10.5 million miles in New Zealand, Australia, and France is. They then wanted to expand internet coverage to the whole world, which will start from Asia.
Not only Indonesia, Loon balloons will also be flown in Sri Lanka. Reportedly, three internet balloon will be flown into the air on Monday next week, according to information from The Wall Street Journal.
"Imagine the billions of other people can connect with a variety of things, such as education and economic opportunities. It makes me happy to see the team Loon has a bold vision."

PIN Will No Longer Needed, replaceable Brain Scanning Technology
Passwords with a combination of numbers and letters when it became a means of safety of various types of accounts. However, with the development of the existing technology, the existence of an alphanumeric password also will be replaced. The researchers are now much berusha to utilize biometric password. Even the latest discovery, the brain it can also be used as a biometric password.
Researchers from the University of Binghamton also has the solution. With the safety system in the form of a biometric password brains, they claim that any system would have a high level of security and will be impenetrable by hackers. To be able to do it, the way is to use EEG headgear as a means of brain scanning.
This head covering was going to ask 500 different images. Furthermore, the brain's response to these images also would be used as the unique identity of the headgear. And based on the results of tests performed by the researchers, the accuracy rate is still quite low. Only one of the 30 testers who can earn as much as 100 percent accuracy.
But of course the study of the brain's use of biometric password is still expanding. Moreover, while this is also very much a biometric password that is also in the process of development and even some of them have been used. Starting from scanning retinas, fingerprints or voice.

According to Mozilla, the decisions made today are substantial, and the main reason they have taken this decision to ensure the company can focus all its resources on initiatives "to bring the power of the web to the IOT."
Mozilla also highlights the fact that Firefox OS is not so have many followers, because it is a low-budget device support for this device is slightly. Looking ahead, Mozilla reaffirmed its support to the IOT (Internet of Things) and promised to make a greater impact on the sector in the coming years.
In essence, after the operating system Firefox OS 2.6 slid in May, smartphones supported by this operating system will not have any further involvement with the company's staff.

Even Manea says that by rooting the device Priv means opening up security holes in the device. He said that by doing root, the device will be susceptible compromised by malware, and some applications of the BlackBerry will be rejected outright the Android device in a state-root ter entering the network application.
There are ways in which the parties to avoid the BlackBerry device so the target root Priv. Priv Manea explains that the device will check the kernel and SELinux when ignited. It also monitors the file system table, as well as scanning applications that have access unnatural.
BlackBerry parties said this was done because they want to maintain security on their own devices, according to their designation, which is famous for security and privacy in communication. Though not use their home-made operating system, BlackBerry still want to keep a homemade device safe from malware and virus attacks.
