Hi all,
there is another bluetooth keyboard manufactured by Perkins, and it
costs around five thousand.
It has braille dots on the keys, and is compatible with both android
and IOS. It can also connect several devices together.

HI Harshit,
Braille screen input lets you type using six dots on your screen itself
without any physical braille device.
It has its own touch interface where you will have specific gestures when
you activate it.
If you know Braille, then you can activate it under roters and for more
convenience, just drag it to the top so that you can locate it quickly.
It has two orientations such as portrait and screen away modes.
For iPhones screen away suits where as portrait is the best for iPads.
Just you have to hold your phone with your both palms where in speaker 
comes

at the left and charging point to the right.  Then you can type using your
left and right three fingers respectively.  Feel fee to connect it has 
even

amazing features.

Hi Shek,
What is braille screen input?

On 4/15/23, Shek Mohammad Ali  wrote:

It is totally waste of money if you ask me honestly.  On both Android
and iOS for each swipe gesture there is a keyboard command.  Either
you can have a Bluetooth keyboard or get respective lightening
pin/cables and use any USB keyboard.  Personally I do not use external
keyboard since Braille screen input is sufficed on iOS for speed
typing on and quicker navigation on home screen and web pages.

Hi Shekh,
I had actually bought a lightening type OTG connector for pairing

C-type OTG cable for android phone for ₹ 120/- which worked for
almost a year.
So, can you please help me find genuine lightening OTG cable over

  Hi

  In case you are using NVDA, use it with addons disabled. For that you can 
press insert q and in the option select restart with addons. It will hold good 
for only that instance.


  Secondly you can increase Ram to about 16 gb if it is possible

  Thirdly you can also think of using SSD

  If you OS is installed long back, you can consider reinstalling the OS.

Re: [AI] Certification of quantum of blindness

[pranaya rani]

unfortunate that one who can see shapes, objects, colours and has peripheral 
vision is regarded as totally blind.  We completely blind are losers.

  Rahul, 

  Your certificate is perfectly OK. Don’t meddle with it. There is a evaluation 
method and you squarely fall in 100%. 

  Unfortunately there is no 99 or 98%. The next level is 90%. 

  Best wishes.

  To: AccessIndia: a list for discussing accessibility and issues concerning 
the disabled.
  Subject: [AI] Certification of quantum of blindness

   

  Hi everyone,

   

  Good morning. Apologies for sending this through the mission accessibility 
ID. This is Rahul. That is because I have unsubscribe to the group from my 
personal ID, due to the volume of males.

   

  I would like your guidance on one aspect. My disability certificate shows my 
blindness as being 100%. I have light perception, can recognize shapes and 
forms in close proximity and can also recognize sharp colors when the lighting 
is good. I am able to read, with effort,  large font on the computer, around 
80-100 font size. And I’m able to see the time on my clock which has very large 
digits.  So I don’t think that my blindness is 100%. My visual acuity is 2.5 by 
 60 in one eye, and 3 by 60 in the other eye.

   

  A few years ago, I had wanted to get the quantum of my blindness corrected. 
My recollection of that process, as traumatic as it was, was that I was told 
that given that the amount of vision that I have is very low,  3 by 60 or less, 
that will be considered as 100% blindness. Is this accurate? Or  should I 
obtain a fresh certification that captures the accurate quantum of my blindness?

   

  Warmly,

  Rahul

Yes, Bhawani, it works like pop3. But Outlook Express is more accessible and
faster. However, a great advantage of windlows mail is that when you delete
a message, it is deleted from server. So, you don't have to think over the
server space.

As for Maruti's problem, it may be due to some other technical issues like
two step google security. Not much help is available on windows mail on the

Re: [AI] Regarding adding gmail account in windows default mail app.

[pranaya rani]

sandesh had posted a good explainer about app passwords almost 3 months 
back.  The tips/tricks works very well even today.  This is the best way to 
use our best outlook express for mails.  If you can trace that mail fine. 
or else,  login to your google account, setup 2 step verification,  under 
security, go to app pasword and the process follows.

Yesterday, I went to book the ticket. At the counter the clerk told the
format got changed and he would give concession in the new format only.

I showed on my mobile the circular regarding the change of format and
that the existing format is also valid. He gave me the concession
eventually. I am sharing this if anyone else runs into a similar
situation, this is the way to resolve it.

As suggested before, get a new consession certificate issued by the

will renew your card. You'll have to visit the same office few weeks

Hi Access India Members,

My railway photo identity card validity is getting over and I am
trying to apply it through online from
https://divyangjan-rail.in/

But my question is that in the 2nd step after log in they are asking
to select the hospital from where we obtain the concession
certificate. they listed around 74 hospitals and organisations like
NAB, AICB, The Blind Releaf Association Etc from new Delhi. So I would
like to know that Since I am from south India and I am not able to
find any hospitals or organisations in the list from south. And also
they did not give any option for us to enter hospital or organisation
address other than what they mentioned in the list. So is there any
possibility for me to apply this through online with out visiting DRM
office? I also have my UDID card.
Kindly guide me on this.

Re: [AI] UP Population Control Bill

terrible thinking? the bill no where  says disabled children are not officially

  I was also thinking the same while reading this draft.

  If a child borns with disability, he or she will not exist officially.

  With this section, it will not possible to make this bill effective as much 
as it should be.

NPRD’s Reaction to the Draft Uttar Pradesh (UP) Population Control, 
Stabilisation and Welfare Bill, 2021


Sec. 15 of the Bill includes a terribly pejorative almost eugenic rationale 
where the Bill says that if couples have one or two children who “suffer” (term 
used in the Bill) from disability, they can have more children and will not be 
seen to contravene the two-child norm.



Notwithstanding, the other regressive and contentious provisions in the 
Bill, this Section seeks to invoke an ableist mindset and tends to view the 
disabled as non-existent and equivalent to being dead. This is atrocious and 
unacceptable. Disability is a condition and one does not “suffer” from a 
disability but rather suffers because of it.



The Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016, which the Bill invokes 
has equality and non-discrimination as its guiding principles. This provision 
in the Bill is a blatant violation of these principles and reinforces the 
concept of viewing children with disabilities as a burden, unwanted by families 
and society.

Hi, On IPhone, You'll see News, video feeds, TV, and Radio tab. Just
next to radio, click the "More button" and then the screen with list
of radio stations will open. You can either search the radio station
you want or browse through the list of radio stations and double tab
on the one that you want to listen. That's it and it will start
playing. Navigation in IPhone is slightly difficult.

A view from inside India's crumbling health infrastructure

As the weather turned windy one evening, I stood on the balcony with my little 
daughter. She exulted, "I can count the thunderclaps.one.two." Little did
I know then that the same night, another lightning would hit my hospital, 
extinguishing two lives: A middle-aged emergency medicine officer and a young
junior resident, both lost to 
Covid-19.

On their first day at medical school, I often ask my medical students, "Why do 
you want to be a doctor?" Many offer answers along the lines of serving
humanity, a few claim to fulfil their parental desires, and some others remain 
silent as they try to blend into the aura of a premier medical institution
in the capital of India. Anas Mujahid belonged to the last category. He was 
often quiet, but whenever I saw him in the college foyer, he always greeted
me with a wide smile. In January, the 26-year-old completed his internship and 
began working as a junior resident at GTBH (Guru Teg Bahadur Hospital),
our teaching hospital. Returning from iftar to the hospital, he tested positive 
at 8 pm and was gone by 3 am. Towards the fag end, we struggled to find
a ventilator in the very hospital in whose corridors he dreamt of becoming a 
compassionate doctor.

Two weeks ago, I texted my postgraduate student to see how his batchmate and 
best friend's parent, who had Covid-19 and was admitted to our own hospital,
was doing. He told me has was at the cremation. I was speechless. About the 
same time, I got a panic-stricken call with laboured breathing from my friend,
a woman with disability, "No one is picking up the phone at the Delhi 
government helplines. I don't want to die."

During the same period, my wife and son tested positive for Covid. I quickly 
isolated all family members in different rooms. Sleeping alone in the living
room, I would often be disturbed by passing ambulance vans - someone was 
fighting for their life, whether it's for a ventilator or oxygen. As a disabled
doctor, I am aware that people with disabilities are more vulnerable in this 
pandemic
-turned-into-a-man-made disaster.

According to a new New 
England
 Journal of Medicine report, people with intellectual disabilities are 5.9 
times more likely than the non-disabled population to die from Covid-19 in the
US. And we're in Delhi, where a medicine required for care is hard to come by 
in hospitals but can be obtained quickly from a Member of Parliament's office.
What if I don't get a bed in my own hospital? I was concerned. I don't have 
medical insurance either, as disabled people in India still don't have it in
the 21st century.

I dread looking at my phone. It could be another frantic call from someone 
looking for a place to sleep. My medical college classmate from Haryana called
at 2 am a week ago, asking if we had a ventilator at GTBH. There was none in 
Delhi, and the ex-army officer who had served the country, and for whom he
had requested a ventilator, died on his way from the Army Hospital to 
Chandigarh
 in search of one. The daily struggle to get enough oxygen breeds a kind of 
moral cynicism born of powerlessness. We've been taught to save lives, not
to resuscitate a failed infrastructure.

Another of my students, now a doctor, had to make the tough decision on who 
will receive a life-saving ventilator in a private hospital in Delhi. It would
be difficult to make and execute such triage decisions, but living with them 
can be even more difficult. His senior, an alumnus from my institution who
is now working in the US, experienced the moral distress first-hand during the 
US healthcare crisis last year, when he honestly said, "I am a soldier in
this battle, and I am scared". He is now pulling resources to help our 
hospital's existing student-led mental health support network.

Policymakers and politicians in the capital appear to have become immune to the 
crisis. I got a number of requests from people outside of India. One medical
university was eager to take on the workload of an entire tertiary care 
hospital in Delhi, but subsequent talks revealed their concerns about the 
"corruption"
in the Indian system: They were wary of the money not going where it was most 
needed. No wonder, we spend just 1.29 per cent of GDP on health, even less
than Bangladesh and Nepal, both of whom are not superpowers.

The most vulnerable in this pandemic are the disabled people. Door-to-door 
vaccination and drive-in campaigns at special homes, old-age homes, and halfway
homes are still not implemented for disabled in the Delhi though such 
endeavours are being considered in other states and being done in other 
countries.

Citizen Matters, Mumbai
About Prachi Pinglay-Plumber 1 Article

Ketan Kothari, his wife and his neighbour, are visually-impaired and above 45 
years of age. When they tried to approach various centres for vaccination
in western suburbs of Mumbai, they ended up going to three centres and got 
turned down for various reasons. The centres were too crowded with high risk
of contracting the infection, no special facility for people with disabilities 
or simply did not have vaccines.

Donate

Kothari is one of thousands of disabled/specially-abled people, who are facing 
a number of difficulties while coping with the pandemic and now with 
vaccination.
>From accessing the web portals for registrations to requesting for passes for 
>ongoing treatments, managing without caregivers and so on, Covid-19 has had
an impact on this section of population that is yet to be understood fully.

"We could not register online as the site is not friendly for the blind 
computer users. Also, no state helpline is equipped to deal with the specific 
problems
of disabled patients, their parents and caregivers," says Kothari. "Disabled 
people, who cannot maintain social distance and need to perform their day-to-day
work and who do not have any able-bodied assistant need the vaccine on priority 
but are left in the lurch. At these vaccination centres, treatment meted
out to us (PWDs), depends on individuals, who are managing at that time. Some 
are supportive, some are not. I am very disappointed in the government of
India for not recognising us a high-risk group and making vaccines available 
early on."

The Government did not announce any special measures for persons with 
disabilities (PWDs) while announcing vaccines for senior citizens, or those with
comorbidities. Among the categories were listed as co-morbidities, one was 
about disabilities such as multiple disabilities requiring high support needs
or intellectual disabilities.

However, disability rights activists have been pointing out that PWDs are a 
high-risk group, and recognised as such globally, because of dependence on
caregivers and inability to maintain social distancing. Rahul Ramugade, a 
wheelchair-bound cricketer and swimmer, says disabled people have been confined
to homes for over a year and need to be assisted to receive vaccines even if 
they register. "Even if the centre is on ground floor and there are a few
steps to be climbed we have to call people to lift the wheelchair and take us, 
which compromises Covid precautions. Special provisions and facilities,
such as time slots, are needed otherwise the risk of contracting Covid is very 
high."

Tony Kurien, who is visually-impaired, says people like him find it hard to 
maintain social distance because they rely on tactile cues for mobility. He
says, "There is a correlation between disability and poverty. It is highly 
likely that most disabled people are not well-off. How will they pay for this
in private hospitals and how will they manage the crowds in general hospitals?

Recognising these challenges, Adventures Beyond Barriers Foundation, has 
organised a vaccination drive for People With Disabilities in Mumbai after May
1, when vaccination opens for all above the age of 18. "Persons with 
Disabilities (PwDs) have been the world's worst-affected minority during the 
current
pandemic. Along with being highly susceptible to COVID-19, PwDs are struggling 
to get vaccinated due to immense logistical/ financial  issues. Adventures
Beyond Barriers Foundation (ABBF), a non-profit committed to disability 
inclusion and empowerment is working to facilitate the vaccination process for
PwDs living in Mumbai. We are arranging all logistical support to ensure hassle 
free experience at vaccination centres and specific vaccination camps for
PwDs and their caregivers who meet the eligibility criteria," the Foundation 
said in an appeal.

Divyanshu Ganatra, founder of ABBF, who is India's first blind solo-paraglider 
and a neuro-scientist/psychologist, says they are tying up with hospitals
and are willing to do partnerships to conduct camps in specific locations too. 
"The spectrum of people with disabilities is huge and everyone has unique
challenges. From autism to those who are immobile, everyone faces unique 
challenges and are extremely vulnerable to the pandemic. We will try to 
vaccinate
as many as we can with the help of hospitals. Presently this is for Mumbai but 
if we get enough funds and are

This IITian lost vision 8 years ago, he now develops ‘voice app’ that helps 
visually impaired use popular apps
International Day of Disabled Persons 2020: Pramit Bhargava, an alumnus of 
IIT-BHU and IIM-B, is behind the Louie app that enables visually impaired users 
to use popular apps with just voice commands.
Anuj Bhatia

A drug reaction 20 years ago affected the retina of Pramit Bhargava, an alumnus 
of IIT-BHU and IIM-B. Since then, he slowly started losing his vision, and by 
2012, it had dropped to a point when he could not read anything. Losing his 
vision had impacted Bhargava, both mentally and physiologically. Low on 
confidence, the 53-year-old even started questioning himself.

“I was becoming so dependent on people because of the lack of technology. Even 
though I’m a good user of technology, I realised that the only thing available 
for the visually impaired was a basic screen reader that was fairly basic, and 
was difficult to use,” he told indianexpress.com in an interview.

Four years ago, Bhargava, who has worked with Hindustan Unilever and Motorola, 
got the idea of developing an app that shows the way as to how tech can become 
more accessible to people with disabilities. While seeking help from a sighted 
friend to book a cab, Bhargava wondered if he could create a mobile app that 
allows visually impaired users to use popular apps with just voice commands.

“Louie, in a way, is all about solving my own problem, and with the hope that 
it will work for other people as well,” said Bhargava, the creator of ‘Louie 
Voice Control’.

The rise of assistive tech: How tech is helping people with special needs
Bhargava visualised a mobile app that could be a ‘virtual friend’, doing 
interactions like humans – something he himself wished existed for booking a 
cab or sending a WhatsApp message. While the idea of a mobile that lets blind 
and visually impaired use commonly used apps and controls the phone with voice 
commands had a potential, Bhargava initially struggled to get developers on 
board. But once he secured funding from Sequoia Capital, Bhargava recruited his 
own developers and started working on the app. His team now consists of 14

Bhargava says the mobile app, ‘Louie Voice Control’, is a part of the larger 
effort to make tech products and services accessible for the people with 
disabilities and special needs. With smartphones becoming more accessible than 
ever, it becomes natural to design solutions that benefit a larger section of 
the society, including blind and visually impaired people. The app’s name Louie 
was derived from Louis Braille, inventor of the Braille, a system that enables 
blind and visually impaired people to read and write through touch.

“Whichever app we support, whatever phone functionality we support, we got to 
make Louie so good that just like a sighted person, a visually impaired person 
should also be able to do each and everything within that app with just voice 
commands,” he says.

Louie is designed to be an accessibility app and the voice functionality is an 
integral part of the solution. “It’s a very complex technology, and no other 
app in the world is actually using it the way we are,” he said. But how do you 
differentiate between your solution vs Google Assistant, Alexa or Siri?

Apple updates accessibility website to make users aware of new capabilities
“The difference in approach is that if you take the voice assistants, be it 
Google Assistant, Siri or Alexa, they are meant for the sighted masses,” he 
explains. Citing the example of Uber,

Mumbai: As lifts, escalators in stations stay shut, commute a harrowing task 
for disabled
Physically disabled persons have complained that several services have been 
rendered inaccessible to them in order to ensure distancing norms are followed.
Tabassum Barnagarwala

Disabled passengers in Mumbai are finding it hard to travel on suburban trains 
as access to escalators and lifts has remained cut off across all stations on 
western and central lines since March. Officials said the need to make these 
amenities functional has not arisen yet as footfall at railway stations is low 
due to travel restrictions on local trains.

Even as suburban trains are not open for the general public, the railways has 
made an exception for the disabled to access train services. While the move 
announced in October brought relief, the decision to keep escalators and lifts 
non-functional has made the commute tough.

Ruhool Ameen, who uses a wheelchair, travels from Ghatkopar to Chhatrapati 
Shivaji Maharaj station every week. He now needs a helper for moving around 
inside the station premises. His friend Babu Shaikh lifts him from the 
wheelchair onto the stairs, and Ameen drags himself on the staircase a step at 
a time to reach the foot overbridge. He is again put back on the wheelchair 
only to dismount a few minutes later to repeat the entire exercise to go down 
the stairs to the platform.

“It is excruciating exercise. I asked railway officials to start the lift, but 
they said the lifts will remain shut until the general public is allowed to 
travel on local trains,” Ameen said.

The decision to block and barricade certain sections of the railway station, 
including major ones like Dadar, CSMT, Churchgate, Andheri, has prevented the 
visually impaired from using tactile paving that facilitates their movement.

Physically disabled persons have complained that several services have been 
rendered inaccessible to them in order to ensure distancing norms are followed.

Dr Vyankatesh Parlikar, attached with Shatabdi hospital in Kandivali, has 
haemophilia and lower limb mobility issues. He suffers from regular bleeding 
problems. “I use crutches because of weak knees. But in railway stations, I am 
scared to climb stairs. I fear if I slip, or my crutches fall, who will help 
me?” he asks, adding that once when he had to travel to KEM hospital, he was 
forced to use a cab because navigating through the station was not possible.

Central Railway spokesperson Anil Kumar Jain said entry and exit points had to 
be limited when lockdown was announced since trains were accessible only to 
government employees. “Lifts and escalators are shut since their use is 
limited. We will start them once the normal public is allowed to use trains,” 
Jain added.

At present, bank employees and women are allowed to use trains along with 
government employees. Senior citizens are forced to climb stairs to reach the 
platform. Sumit Thakur, chief public relations officer of the Western Railway, 
said, “The WR is deliberating over when lifts and escalators can be reopened.”

It is critical that the government work with civil society and individuals with 
disabilities to craft an India where everyone feels welcome and treated with 
respect, regardless of their disabilities.
Shashi Tharoor

Today, December 3, is the annual International Day of Persons with 
Disabilities, established by the United Nations in 1992 to “promote the rights 
and well-being of persons with disabilities in all spheres of society and 
development, and to increase awareness of the situation of persons with 
disabilities in every aspect of political, social, economic and cultural life”. 
It is also a stark reminder of how far we in India need to go in meeting the 
needs of the disabled.

Shreela Flather, a British MP of Indian origin, received a Pravasi Bharatiya 
Samman award in India a few years ago. Her wheelchair-ridden husband had come 
all the way from England to accompany her on this special occasion — but he was 
unable to go up on the stage with her, because there was no ramp. The 
organisers offered to lift him up to the stage but he rightly refused. Even as 
I burned with shame that we could not manage this basic provision even at such 
a high-level occasion, I could well imagine what others in the same situation 
had to endure every day in India.

About a billion people internationally live with a disability, with 80 per cent 
of these being residents of the developing world. In 2007, the UN passed the 
Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. This was a landmark step 
toward treating disabled persons as full members of society, rather than 
objects of pity or charity — or, as was shamefully the norm for much of our 
past, fear and ridicule.

India is a state party to the convention, and the World Bank estimates that 
there may be well over 40 million Indians living with disabilities. Most 
Indians regard them with disdain or at best indifference to their plight.

Provisions exist in law, but getting the authorities anywhere in India to 
implement them is another story altogether. The Rights of Persons with 
Disabilities Act was passed in 2016 but our country is still largely devoid of 
ramps on its footpaths or government buildings. The best that can be said is 
that the passage of the law may have helped shift the treatment of disabled 
persons in society towards rights-focused thinking. But acting is a different 
matter.

The present government has sought to weaken this law’s protections, 
decriminalising acts of discrimination against persons with disabilities in the 
name of “improving business sentiment”. This is misguided and deeply harmful: 
We cannot erode the well-being of people with disabilities, thus entrenching 
the dangerously negative attitudes of many in society, in the name of commerce.

It’s attitudes that need to change. I’ve met Ashla Krishnan in her wheelchair 
in Thiruvananthapuram. She tells me I shouldn’t think of her as a quadriplegic, 
but as a “person with quadriplegia”. Her paralysis, she says, does not define 
her. She can and does want to contribute to society, like any other person.

But as with Dr Flather years ago, people with disabilities want one thing from 
us — to make it possible for them to contribute with self-respect. They don’t 
want helpful strangers to lift them onto a stage, or into an office or a 
restaurant. They want us to install the ramps that will permit them to accede 
to these places themselves.

The law promises them equality of opportunity and accessibility. Our practices 
deny them what the law promises.

There is some good news. Mainstream media has increasingly started showing 
positive representations of people with disabilities, from Taare Zameen Par to 
Barfi. Athletes with disabilities have reached the pinnacles of sport and done 
us proud repeatedly, most recently winning four athletics medals at the 2016 
Paralympics in Rio de Janeiro. But that doesn’t mean we can overlook the 
appalling treatment that people with disabilities have long received, and 
continue to receive, in India.

Indians with disabilities are far more likely to suffer from poor social and 
economic development. Shockingly, 45 per cent of this population is illiterate, 
making it difficult for them to build

  Namaskaar,

Samarth Bharat Manch is a new initiative taken up by the visually
impaired (Drushtidivyang) people of Bharat to contribute towards the 
cause

of nation building.

Like minded visually impaired people came together from different
parts of Bharat and established Samarth Bharat Manch in 2019.

In December 2019, Samarth Bharat Manch organized a wonderful two days 
long
seminar in Nashik on the topic 'Growing role of Hindutva in changing 
India'.
It was a unique seminar of its own kind and a new chapter was started 
in

this field. A special lecture of Shri Pushpendra Kulsreshtha was also
organized for the general
public of Nashik city, which became a great hit.


This proved that now the visually impaired community of India is also
synchronizing each step and walking shoulder to shoulder with their
non-disabled mates confirming that even with such visual challenges, we
the visually impaired people of Bharat do have our share for the cause 
of

nation's building.


Taking this initiative to a further height, Samarth Bharat Manch has
ushered into the field of webinars and after overwhelming success of
its first webinar, it is back with another unique webinar on Thursday, 
Nov

19, 2020 .

The city of Delhi kept on burning for many days in February this year
due to the communal riots. The facts and reality of the perpetrators
of these riots and horrifying tales of the same were laboriously
documented by the authors Advocate Maunika Arora, Prof. Dr. Prerna 
Malhotra

and Prof. Dr. Sonali Chitalkar in
form of a book. The book has been published by Garuda Prakashan and the
upcoming
webinar will be centred around this book.


The topic of the webinar will be 'Reality of Delhi riots in context of
freedom of expression'
The speakers will be Prof. Dr. Prerna Malhotra, Prof. Dr. Sonali
Chitalkar and Mr. Sankrant Sanu, the founder of Garuda Prakashan.

By organising this webinar on 19th November, on the occasion of birth
anniversary of Laxmi Bai, the queen of Jhansi, we want to salute and
pay our respects to the courage of the three women writers of the
book.
After speaking their part, all speakers would also take up questions 
from

the participants.


Hence, Samarth Bharat Manch cordially invites you and your known ones
and appeals with folded hands to be a part of this intellectually
enriching session.

The webinar will take place on Zoom platform, which can be accessed
both from computer and mobile. It'll also be livestreamed on Samarth

I have filled it and I strongly think, all members of AccessIndia should
also do so.

It is very important we express ourselves and also show we are decent

There is an mandatory attachment field which ideally should not have

Health ministry issues draft national list of essential assistive 
products

Shardul Nautiyal, Mumbai
Saturday, October 3, 2020, 08:00 Hrs  [IST]
The Union health ministry has released the draft National List of
Essential Assistive Products (NLEAP).

The list is aimed to provide assistive technologies (ATs) and devices for
elderly, persons with disabilities (PwDs), patients with non-communicable
diseases (NCDs) such as stroke, diabetes, congenital birth defect
associated disabilities and people in humanitarian crisis and disasters.

The ministry has invited suggestions and comments on the list from the
stakeholders by October 10, 2020.

Earlier, the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) had initiated 
steps

to prepare a list of assistive products on the pattern of WHO’s Priority
Assistive Products List (WHO-APL). A total of 383 assistive products 
(APs)

have been included in the NLEAP through a consultative process. As India
already has a National List of Essential Medicines (NLEM), hence during
various Expert Group meetings by ICMR, it was agreed that the list may be
termed as NLEAP.

In January 2020, Director General (DG), ICMR, Balram Bhargava constituted
a National Expert Committee (NEC) under the leadership of Dr R K
Srivastava, Ex. DGHS, to assist in preparation of a list of assistive
products.

The NEC recommended creation of 4 sub-groups, each representing their
specialties like public health, physical medicine & rehabilitation (PMR),
geriatrics and engineering. Each of the specialties had one leader with
involvement of two more members.

These Sub-Groups were: public health specialists led by Dr Harshad 
Thakur,
Director, National Institute of Health and Family Welfare (NIHFW), 
physical

medicine and rehabilitation professionals led by Rajendra Sharma,
Consultant, Dr Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital, Delhi, geriatric medicine
experts led by Dr A B Dey and engineering professionals led by Dr PVM 
Rao,

IIT-Delhi.

Lead Expert of each sub-group was given liberty to include more members.
Dr Sanjiv Kumar, Ex. National Health Systems Resource Centre (NHSRC) ; Dr
Arvind Mathur, renowned geriatrician; Dr. S.L. Yadav, AIIMS; Dr.
Balakrishnan, IIT-Delhi; Dr Shipra Chaudhary, RML Hospital; Dr Shweta
Bhandari, and Dr Suman Badhal, Safdarjang Hospital; Dr Monika Saini, Dr
Rajni Bagga, Dr Manoj and Dr Niraj –NIHFW; contributed towards 
finalisation

of the complete master list of assistive products. In addition to this
Prakash Bachani, Scientist, Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and Dr
Sangeeta Abrol, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare contributed by
providing BIS-ISO standards and health ministry perspectives. Each
sub-group met many times to discuss the assistive products from their
specialty angles.

During its meetings, NEC and Sub-Groups felt the need to go beyond simple
list to classify them age-wise (different requirements in different age
groups), disability-wise (21 disabilities as per RPwD Act 2016 or Visual,
Hearing, locomotor, Cognitive, Communication, Self-Care),

If you want to take refund or if any tax demand, you have to file ITR. 
better is to write a formal letter to your friend's income tax assessing

commissioner have a full power to extend your friend's last date for filing

The handicap coach is always full occupied by non-disabled parents and 
extremely impossible for disableds to get into the coach let alone a seat in 
the coach. The matter was complained to guard who is supposedly the incharge 
for the handicapped coach and also with tt but nothing happens.  Is there a 
phone no. to which we can make complaints? Or what the others ways to make 
complaints?

Subject: [AI] Scribe guidelines

Sorry folks for not reporting for 2 days. A lot of you have already heard
what happened but let me explain a few issues  

1.   You all know that in 2013 we got new guidelines for the use of
scribes. This was far and beyond what had been given by Courts and
definitely more than what we had demanded at different times. 

2.   So far about one year there was not too much of a problem because
no one really implemented the guidelines. 

3.   Then the penny dropped-U PS C and others started saying that these
guidelines were unfair. 

4.   Some of our own VI candidates decided that these guidelines gave
them the right to have overqualified or should I say coached writers. 

5.   Our other VI who suffered because of the special writers complained
to U P S C and to the Courts-Bombay and Eranakulam I am told.  

6.   Then the Government set up our committee. We met about 3 times but
could not agree so the MSJE set up a sub-committee. 

7.   This subcommittee gave a report which we had to discuss at this
meeting on 20th June. 

8.   I had shared the sub-committee's report and the comments of U PS C
and SSC. 

9.   Our meeting started an hour and half late because the Secretary had
gone to meet the Minister. 

10.   Before she came in the other committee members gave theiropinion on
the subcommittees report. Only Mr. Rungta and I were left to give our
comments when the Secretary arrived and we started the formal meeting. 

11.   It was quite a hot debate. 

12.   The problem with govt agencies is that they don't send the same person
to the followup meetings. This includes U P S C and our own NIVH. This
hampers progressive discussion and we cannot pin the representative down.

13.   There was no problem with compensatory time etc. The recommendations
of the Sub-committee were accepted.  

14.   So what have we won or should I say retained-the first right of the
candidate to choose his scribe. If not available then the Examining body can
provide not less than a matriculate.  

15.   Further you can meet your scribe 2 days in advance. 

16.   Some other devices etc for other disabilities that can be used.Our
committee added to Sub committee recommendations. This added to the original
guidelines.  

17.   The only problem with the subcommittee's  suggestion is that they are
not allowing you to use your own laptop. I however feel that this should not
be in the guidelines.  I know atleast 2 members on this list who have used
their own laptops and didn't have a problem after explanations. This may be
considered to be a loss and squarely attributable to the subcommittee.  

18.   Now the loss that will bother us some day-the scribe has to be less in
qualification than the candidate. 

19.   So this guideline has got nothing to do with the exam but only with
the candidate. Keeping in mind that the minimum educational qualification
for a scribe is matriculation. This does not sound too bad but ground
realities will tell. 

20.   So the meeting ended about three and half hours later with 2 cups of
tea and 4 biscuits thrown in. The Secretary will have to report to the
courts. 

21.   The fact that we have the right to choose our own scribe is going to
be debated over and over again until we stop the malpractises and each of
you reading my email or whatsapp need to take care of the situation. You are
responsible for what lies ahead. I know the argument about supervision.   

22.   It is not an easy task to take the whole room on by just 2 people. We
did it because you gave us strength. We were prepared and many weren't.
However it has taken lots of persuasion, anger, raised voices and a lot of
diplomacy. 

23.   What will let us down is the continuous  use of professional scribes.


24.   Please help by giving me the reference to the Bombay High Court and
Eranakulam cases. We will have to intervene.  

25.   Thanks to each of you who respond to my urgent requests and give your
input on these crucial issues.

26.   It has been 12 years battling this menace. I wish I dint have to face
a meetingwhere I am told that my people are cheating. I further wish that
none of my people suffer because of bad scribes.  

Kanchan

Hi

Depending on institution to provide a scribe is good. But what if that
institution send an unqualified one? What action can be done against
it?
I had a very bad experience in this matter with UPSC exam. When I
wrote for my first attempt I opted for UPSC scribe thinking that I
will get a good one. Unfortunate for me, I got a girl who did not even
know how to pronounce english words and I have to ask for spellings
almost the whole of exam period.
What can we do in such cases except to feel dejected without my fault for it?

 Retention of capacity to choose own scribe, though less in

 meet the scribe two days in advance is a superb victory.

 At least folks now at least, stop using professional scribes.
 Accessible exams, if online or computerized, is the ultimate dream.

(Natural News)
Google should no longer be considered a search engine, a place where you can 
freely lookup information. Google does not truly honor your search terms and
does not provide honest results from around the World Wide Web.

 

According to the Google handbook,
Google reserves the right to de-list pages “that directly contradict well 
established scientific or medical consensus for queries seeking scientific or
medical information, unless the query indicates the user is seeking an 
alternative viewpoint.” The institutions and industries that influence Google 
can
now use the search engine to censor out any contrarian or dissenting 
information that would dishevel their business interests. For instance, 
articles explaining
the truth about chemotherapy or the dangers of psychiatric medication can be 
buried in Google’s “search engine” because the information “contradicts well
established medical consensus.”

 

On page 108 of the search evaluator quality guidelines,
 Google gives a glimpse into the type of reference information they bury, 
including “Pages that directly contradict well-established historical facts 
(e.g.,
unsubstantiated conspiracy theories), unless the query clearly indicates the 
user is seeking an alternative viewpoint.” In this way, Google, its engineers
and influencers can control what people know to be true about history. Any 
dissenting eyewitness accounts of a historical event can be considered 
“contradictory
to well-established historical facts.” In other words, there is an official 
story on every event and we must all obey it, no questions asked.

 

For these reasons, Google should be considered a manipulative propaganda 
machine. First, Google uses your search terms to learn more about you. The 
information
that Google collects is used to target market information and products to their 
users. Second, Google manipulates what is presented to you (even in search
results) to control the information that you read. This is akin to 
brainwashing. Any information that questions the “official story” can be 
buried, manipulating
readers to accept the “official story” as true, even though science and 
historical fact are routinely manipulated to carry out an institution’s goals 
and
protect those in power.

 

In order to get information out to people, the independent media 
faces an uphill battle going forward
 because Google is burying independent media stories. If the story conflicts 
with an industry’s agenda or a scientific consensus, then Google reserves
the right to de-list the story from its index. The more Google can demonize 
contrarian information, the more that information will appear as unfounded
conspiracy theory. For instance, Google’s YouTube 
banned a video about cannabis oil.
YouTube claimed the video was “dangerous” and they struck down the NaturalNews 
YouTube channel. This information is life-saving, but will be perceived
as controversial, all because Google de-legitimized and censored it. This 
blatant censorship hinders people from accessing wisdom from those who have 
bucked
the status quo and healed themselves. Articles on natural healing will continue 
to be buried because these stories contradict “well-established scientific
fact.”

 

If you have a thirst for knowledge and want to learn more about topics such as 
vaccines, enhancing cognitive function, boosting natural immunity, don’t
look to Google for information, for they manipulate the information they allow 
you to read.

 

If you want to learn the events surrounding 9/11 or the Kennedy assassination, 
you will easily be misled by Google, which wants compliance to the official
story, so you cannot question authority whatsoever. In this way, the public is 
more obedient, compliant – an easily manipulated pack of slaves who do not
have the power to heal themselves, think for themselves, and become more self 
reliant.

 

If you want to learn the truth, use alternative search engines such as 
GoodGopher
 or DuckDuckGo. Print out important documents for later use. Bookmark and keep 
a written copy of websites that provide  valuable information that will
inevitably be omitted from Google’s search dictatorship.

Re: [AI] scribe guidelines

Its not clear whether blind will be allowed their own scribes! In one para
they say blind can take their own scribes while in some other para, they say
commission will provide 100 percent scribes.   Its ambigious whether we can
take our own relatives as scribes (as its not easy to get scribes), this is
because, in one para  it says that scribes shouldn't be close to the
candidates or something like that. Kanchan will be in a better position to
clarify the same

blind persons

Dear all,
I have sent the following message to IRCTC on behalf of National Association
for the Blind, Delhi. You may also please take up this matter individually
or through your organizations. 

To,
The Director 
Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation Ltd., 
B 148, 11th Floor, Statesman House, Barakhamba Road

Tel: 011-23311263/64, 23314752 , 23314784  
Emails: i...@irctc.com, gg...@irctc.com, c...@irctc.co.in .

Subject: Denial of Internet ticketing facility to blind persons 

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing on behalf of the visually impaired community of the country.
Your Railway Ticketing website www.irctc.co.in has now become totally
inaccessible to use for the millions of blind persons in the country. 

It may be noted that with persistent advocacy and favourable court orders we
had been able to get the changes implemented in the earlier IRCTC website.
In particular OTP based verification was specially introduced as an
alternative to the graphical CAPTCHA. Even though the website was not fully
compliant to the International or National Web Accessibility Guidelines, it
was usable by digitally literate blind persons including myself. You may be
aware that even totally blind persons can use the computer and internet
independently using Screen Reading software (Talking software like NVDA,
Jaws). However, despite having this ability blind persons cannot use the
websites which are designed in violation of standard practices and
accessibility guidelines. 

You have recently put in place a totally new website for internet ticket
booking. This website is unfortunately totally inaccessible for blind
persons and also those disabled persons who cannot use the computer mouse.
The OTP verification feature put in place by you is of no use now. The blind
persons are not able to even reach to the login form.

We have received complaints to this effect from many blind persons from the
country. I have also personally verified the issues with the website. 
We urge you to immediately get the website tested and retrofitted for
accessibility. It must be made compliant to the Web Content Accessibility
Guidelines version 2.0. We can assist in this process if you so desire. 

You will appreciate that blind persons like other citizens have a right to
use the railways and therefore should be capable of booking tickets online.
The Ministry of Social Justice has in fact provided Online Rail Reservation
Concession Cards in collaboration with railways for this purpose. But now
with the change in the reservation website, these Cards are also of no use. 

Please take up this matter urgently and for the moment restore previous
version of the website. You may get the new interface tested and corrected
simultaneously. Any change in this kind of website should be done only after
disability accessibility audit since it is used by persons with different
capabilities and disabilities all over the country. 

I am sorry to say that if urgent action is not taken on this matter, we will
be forced to escalate this matter to the Government and Judiciary. 

Thanking you,

(Natural News)
If you were to have suggested 10 years ago that data-mining operations like 
Facebook and Google were actively “listening” to everything people do online,
including what we all say around our smartphones, many “normies” would have 
called you a crazy conspiracy theorist. But in 2018, even the left-wing 
mainstream
media 
now openly admits
 that online spying is taking place constantly.

 

VICE writer Sam Nichols recently conducted an experiment showing this to be 
true. After casually noticing that some of the things he’d talked about with
friends over his smartphone were suddenly showing up as advertising in his 
Facebook and Instagram apps, he decided to calculatedly speak certain phrases
over and over again to see if those things showed up, too. And the scary thing 
is that they did.

 

Twice a day for five days, Nichols made sure to talk about things like going 
back to university and needing to purchase affordable shirts for work. And
sure enough, he began to notice advertising changes in his social media 
accounts almost immediately, suggesting that the Silicon Valley mafia is 
actively
invading people’s privacy and spying on what they say and do in order to sell 
more advertising space.

 

“From time to time, snippets of audio do go back to [other apps like 
Facebook’s] servers, but there’s no official understanding what the triggers 
for that
are,” says Dr. Peter Hannay, a former lecturer and researcher at 
Edith Cowan University Western Australia,
and senior security consultant for cybersecurity firm Asterisk.

“Whether it’s timing or location-based or usage of certain functions, [apps] 
are certainly pulling those microphone permissions and using those periodically.
All the internals of the applications send this data in encrypted form, so it’s 
very difficult to define the exact trigger.”

 

Facebook in particular vehemently denies that it spies on its users, but this 
can’t be true based on Nichols’ experiments. As many people would probably
conclude, Mark Zuckerberg and the rest of his tribe are blatantly lying 
whenever they deny using technology to listen in on the conversations and 
web-browsing
habits of social media users, especially since we all know that Facebook 
possesses such technology.

 

“Seeing Google are open about it, I would personally assume the other companies 
are doing the same,” adds Dr. Hannay. “Really, there’s no reason they wouldn’t
be. It makes good sense from a marketing standpoint, and their end-use 
agreements and the law both allow it, so I would assume they’re doing it, but 
there’s
no way to be sure.”

 

If Facebook and Instagram are listening, then so is the NSA and maybe even the 
CIA

 

Perhaps even more disturbing is the fact that the data collected from social 
media spying is likely, at least in some cases, ending up in the hands of
government agencies like the National Security Agency (NSA) and even the 
Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

 

Truth be told, social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram likely exist 
for the very purpose of feeding intelligence to these bloated federal agencies,
all under the guise of keeping people connected. Evidence of this turned up 
back in 2012 when investigative journalists went down the rabbit trail of how
Facebook began, uncovering that the social media site 
has direct financial ties to the CIA.

 

“… our phones are listening to us and anything we say around our phones could 
potentially be used against us,” warns Nichols, adding the caveat that “unless
you’re a journalist, a lawyer, or have some kind of role with sensitive 
information, the access of your data is only really going to advertisers.” 
That’s
quite a change from what the left-wing media used to report; that anyone who 
believed electronic devices are spying on our conversations was a tin foil
hat-wearing nut job. Now, the spying is admitted and the media says it’s fine.

(Natural News)
Facebook is once again at the helm of controversy and has been accused of 
spying on app users. A court case in California alleges that the social media
giant used its apps to gather information about patrons and their friends — 
including reading their messages, tracking their location and even accessing
photos on their phones. Former startup Six4three has been engaged in a 
veritable Pandora’s box of a case against Facebook for roughly two years.

 

And the latest revelations from Six4three’s lawsuit allege that Facebook has 
been engaging in mass surveillance of users for some time now. One court 
document
reportedly states, “Facebook continued to explore and implement ways to track 
users’ location, to track and read their texts, to access and record their
microphones on their phones, to track and monitor their usage of competitive 
apps on their phones, and to track and monitor their calls.”

 

It certainly sounds like spying, doesn’t it? But of course, a Facebook 
spokesperson has rebuked the accusation, stating that Six4three’s “claims have 
no
merit, and we will continue to defend ourselves vigorously.”

 

According to The Guardian, the claims about Facebook’s uncouth spying efforts 
appear in a January filing — the fifth amended complaint made by Six4three.
The document also alleges that Facebook collected this information for 
“commercial purposes.”

 

The bulk of the details regarding Faceook’s surveillance have been redacted 
from court documents; according to the social media site, these are 
“confidential
business matters.” Whether or not these omissions are more like a silent 
admission of guilt has yet to be determined. But 
Facebook has come under fire
 for possible invasions of privacy in the past.

 

The allegations

 

As The Guardian explains, Six4three is suing over the failure of an app called 
Pikinis, which would have given users the ability to zero in on photos of
their friends in swimsuits.

 

The former startup alleges “the social media company lured developers and 
investors on to the platform by intentionally misleading them about data 
controls
and privacy settings.”

 

And in their January document, Six4three also alleges that the social media 
darling “tracked users extensively, sometimes without consent.”

 

Supposedly, Facebook was taking metadata and content from text messages from 
their users with Android phones. Facebook could access most photos, including
those that had not been uploaded to Facebook on iPhones, as well — according to 
the Six4three lawsuit.

 

The complaint claims, “Facebook disclosed publicly that it was reading text 
messages in order to authenticate users more easily … [but] this partial 
disclosure
failed to state accurately the type of data Facebook was accessing, the 
timeframe over which it had accessed it, and the reasons for accessing the data
of these Android users.”

 

“Facebook used this data to give certain Facebook products and features an 
unfair competitive advantage over other social applications on Facebook 
Platform,”
it alleges further.

 

Recently, Facebook actually came forward and 
admitted that they did scan users’ text messages
 — but claims they only did so with consent, and for the purpose of protection. 
However, The Guardian reports that in some instances, Facebook has logged
messages without notifying users.

 

Combined with their 
penchant for censoring conservative voices,
it seems that Facebook just can’t escape their laundry list of dirty deeds 
anymore.

(Natural News)
In yet another example of how technology can at times work against our best 
interests, a family in Portland felt compelled to contact Amazon recently after
a 
private conversation was recorded
 by the voice-controlled smart speaker “Alexa” and subsequently sent out to a 
random person living in Seattle.

 

“My husband and I would joke and say I’d bet these devices are listening to 
what we’re saying,” explained Danielle, who did not want her last name 
disclosed.
She went on to describe an alarming phone call that she received from one of 
her husband’s employees in Seattle, who told her to “unplug your Alexa devices
right now” because “you’re being hacked.”

 

“We unplugged all of them and he proceeded to tell us he had received audio 
files of recordings from inside our house,” Danielle said. “At first, my husband
was, like, ‘no you didn’t!’ And the (recipient of the message) said ‘You sat 
there talking about hardwood floors.’ And we said, ‘oh gosh, you really did
hear us.’”

 

Danielle said that she felt that her privacy had been invaded, and that she’s 
no longer going to be using the Amazon Alexa device because she simply can’t
trust it any more. (Related: 
Amazon has quietly decided to start photographing your home each time they make 
a delivery.)

 

When the local news station KIRO 7 reached out to Amazon for a response, the 
e-commerce giant issued the following statement: “Amazon takes privacy very
seriously. We investigated what happened and determined this was an extremely 
rare occurrence. We are taking steps to avoid this from happening in the
future.” (Related: 
A new Amazon patent admits that it will listen in real-time for “trigger words” 
that could get you arrested and imprisoned.)

Experts have warned of this possibility

 

Truthfully, stories similar to this one about the Amazon Alexa listening in on 
private conversations aren’t that rare; as a matter of fact, they seem to
be becoming increasingly common. Worse still, these recorded conversations 
could potentially end up in the wrong hands.

 

Last June, a security expert 
issued a dire warning
 to users of electronic assistants like the Amazon Alexa and the Google Echo, 
explaining that these devices could be hacked by criminals and used to steal
important and personal information.

 

According to cybersecurity expert Dr. Jason Nurse, even though the electronic 
assistant devices put out by Amazon all have an “activation” word (“hey Alexa,”
for example), hackers could potentially find a way to make it so that these 
devices are listening in on your 
private conversations
 around the clock. Once that is accomplished, all it would take is a quick 
sentence or two about your banking information – perhaps as you talk on the
phone with your financial advisor, for example – and the hacker could do a 
tremendous amount of damage to your livelihood and peace of mind.

 

In order to test if a security breach like this was truly possible, a 
team of researchers
 at the security firm Checkmarx began fiddling with the Amazon Alexa to see how 
easy it would be for a hacker to hack in. After just a few clever manipulations,
they were able to achieve their goal, thus proving that the warning made by Dr. 
Jason Nurse last June is entirely legitimate.

 

It would be wrong to say that devices like the Amazon Alexa and similar 
electronic assistants are entirely bad in nature. Indeed, they do make life much
more convenient and come with a number of neat features. However, if the future 
is going to include advanced technology like this, then companies like
Amazon are going to have to work harder than ever to ensure that the privacy 
and safety of their customers is not compromised. Read

People with sight do not have that ‘someone’ because of any insistence. It’s 
purely a choice and availability factor. Do note though, forms do require 
contact details of a person. But no hospital has ever insisted on physical 
presence 24 by 7.

And are we then saying that if you don’t have an attendent, you don’t get the 
treatment at all?

Re: [AI] Denied access to hospitals without assistant

[pranaya rani]

Most  sighted patients   in any hospital for that matter do have someone as
their either their family member/relative.   It is for the hospital to
decide whether a patient needs an assistant subject to  patients
illness/diseases.   Obviously do have some responsibility towards the safety
of the patient and hence assistant is a must.  No need to make a big fuss on
this matter.

RPWD has provision on non-discrimination and there is a specific provision
on healthcare in Section 25 which obligations are on appropriate government.

If you can follow-up, then it can be a great opportunity to put pressure on

My experience with itel also was like that.
However,  some are saying some itel model is fully speaking.

Anyway, needed it for my sister who is nearing sixty.
So, would be good if any basic fully speaking phone is suggested.

In the mad rush for more features, we are leaving behind what is good and 
simple.

Friends

Have heard that itel 7100 or 5613 or 5233 are talking basic phones with keypad?

Do they speak out  all  menus?

One of the itel phones I had bought spoke out half heartedly which was more 
annoying than reassuring and useful.

So, any fully talking basic phone with keypad, please?

Re: [AI] Fwd: Expressing disappointment- Damodar rope way Gangtok restricts boarding of visually impaired tourist on their rope way

[pranaya rani]

In the name of  equality and accessibility, we cannot  discount safety.
Recently, I had been to St. Mary's island, it was difficult to change into
different boats midsea.  While returning, the boat fellow parked the boat
some distance from the island and passengers had a tough time to reach the
boat, fortunately, my family members guided me very well, also the boat
people were very helpful

restricts boarding of visually impaired tourist on their rope way

Hi
Another area of genuine concern is while getting on to a motor boat launch.
It is not a problem when you have to board directly from the pier. The
trouble is when you have to go through many boats to reach your boat. The
height of the motor boats are not the same. Both the boats are moving
because of the waves, there is no proper place to have a safe grip. This can
be very risky at times.

I faced this at Andamans and very recently at Calicut. Here we were on an
overnight house boat cruise. I had difficulty while getting on. However, on
the return the next day. He reached before other boats and as a result he
could berth directly. Sometimes there is just a plank put from the shore on
the boat. One should be very careful as there is no support on the sides at
all.

I don't find it intimidating, but it makes quite a feat to the folks
watching by.

Harish.

Dear group members
Warm Greetings, I recently visited Gangtok for a veccation with my family.

During the trip, we were taken for a ride on a rope way, "Damodar rope way".

The manager ticket counter expressed his concern" our company doesn't permit
to board person with disability on ropeway, but we allow all normal person
including 10 month kid"

this is the matter of "lack of sensitivity" or "inhumane"?

(Natural News)
An 
Amazon patent, filed in June 12, 2017,
reveals a massive conspiracy to spy on you using a “voice sniffer algorithm.” 
If approved by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, this artificial 
intelligence
can be embedded inside Amazon devices, including the Amazon Alexa.

 

The “voice sniffer algorithm” would take advantage of the microphones already 
built into Amazon devices. The technology would permit Alexa and other Amazon
devices to listen to your conversations in real-time to identify “trigger 
words” that can give the tech giant insight into your personal life. The AI spy
tech will learn about your personality, interests, purchasing habits, or glean 
any useful detail about your private life.

 

The “trigger words” from your private conversations could then be sent to third 
parties so any organization can target market their products to you. The
third parties could include political organizations that want to motivate you 
to action or manipulate you otherwise. The data could even be used by law
enforcement agencies to determine who might commit a crime in the future. The 
“voice sniffer algorithm” will help law enforcement closely watch a perceived
threat to society.

 

Words from your private conversations could be used against you, leading to 
arrest or imprisonment. Law enforcement could use the data to identify 
“threats,”
while abiding by red flag laws that are used to disarm citizens who are 
considered “mentally ill” or a threat to family and friends. The technology 
could
lead to the targeting of specific belief systems that are a threat to 
industries. The widespread analysis of private conversation could be used to 
suggest
mental illness and force psychiatric drugs on people.

 

The technology, dubbed by Amazon as “Keyword Determinations From Conversational 
Data” is an expansion of home surveillance, an arrogant and creepy maneuver
by Big Tech to know everything about your private life. Tech analyst Daniel 
Burrus from Burrus Research Associates, Inc. said Amazon is “building a 
personality
profile on the user.”

 

“The more words they collect, the more the company gets to know you,” 
he told ABC News.
Amazon will be able to use your private conversation for financial gain and 
“draw disturbing inferences about households.”

 

Amazon wants to know how many times you flush the toilet, how many times you 
have sex, what you teach your kids, when you are going on vacation, what your
political views are, etc., etc. The more words they collect, the more they can 
predict your purchasing habits, the places you frequent, your medical concerns,
the firearms you possess, your vaccination status, the people you associate 
with, and the causes you support. The patent reveals that your data could be
used to target market to your friends and family, when they are looking to 
purchase a gift for you.

 

Tech analyst Daniel Ives, with GBH Insights, 
told ABC News:
“This further builds on Alexa and more data intelligence and analysis through 
voice that is a major initiative for Amazon. This algorithm would possibly
feed from Alexa into the rest of the Amazon consumer flywheel, ultimately 
helping drive purchasing and buying behavior of Prime members.

 

The artificial intelligence is designed to analyze keywords that reveal your 
motivations on the topics you converse about. Keywords such as “prefer” 
“dislike”
“love” and “bought” can give insight into the audio analysis, revealing your 
true feelings. The patent proudly states that these “identified keywords can
be stored and/or transmitted to an appropriate location accessible to entities 
such as advertisers or content providers who can use the keywords to attempt
to select or customize the content that is likely relevant to the user.” 
Combined with voice recognition, these devices will know exactly who is saying
what, while judging your level of passion or disinterest.

 

According to the patent application, any keywords extracted for the user can be 
sent to content providers across multiple networks, including the Internet,
a local area network (LAN), or a cellular network. The patent boasts that the 
technology could be used in any conventional cellular phone, tablet computer,
desktop computer, personal media

(Natural News)
Google has come under fire for many questionable actions as of late — and the 
startling revelation that their widely used web browser, Google Chrome, is
scanning personal computers around the world is nothing short of infuriating 
for its users. Big Brother is here — and countless numbers of people have
invited this authoritarian presence (in one form or another) while being none 
the wiser. Indeed, some of the world’s largest corporations (like Google
and Amazon) are continuing to find new ways to invade user privacy.

 

In addition to a spying web browser, devices like Google Home and the Amazon 
Echo (and Alexa) are going places where the prying eyes of corporate interests
have never gone before. Worse still, they’ve convinced us to willingly purchase 
these devices and place them in our homes. People are actually paying for
the “privilege” of being spied on — all the while turning a blind eye to the 
total invasion of privacy for the sake of “convenience” and keeping up with
the Jones’.

 

Google Chrome has become the trendy browser of choice, but not without a cost 
to users. A shocking report recently revealed that a series of “updates”
to Chrome gave it the ability to scan all the files on Windows computers. It 
may be the browser so-called security pros suggest, but as it turns out, 
Chrome’s
security blanket may just be a ruse so they can take your information for 
themselves.

 

You see, the Google Clean-up Tool was turned into a mandatory part of Chrome in 
2017 — and users were never made aware of this new feature.

 

As this quote 
reported by Information Liberation
 explains:

 

In practice, Chome [sic] on Windows looks through your computer in search of 
malware that targets the Chrome browser itself using ESET’s antivirus engine.
If it finds some suspected malware, it sends metadata of the file where the 
malware is stored, and some system information, to Google. Then, it asks you
to for permission to remove the suspected malicious file. (You can opt-out of 
sending information to Google by deselecting the “Report details to Google”
checkbox.)

 

Google proponents claim that these newly released “security features” bear no 
risk of infringing on user privacy — but the fact that this web browser’s
modus operandi is to literally scan every file on your computer has raised more 
than a few eyebrows — especially because all of these scans have been conducted
under a cloak of secrecy. Most users had no idea that Google Chrome would do 
this — and certainly were unable to provide explicit permission for the scans.

 

But it seems in the age of Big Brother, permission to surveil the masses is 
implied.

 

Dylan Curran, a web developer from Ireland, downloaded his own Google file and 
in a series of tweets, revealed that 
the corporation had been holding onto his data
 (and presumably, everyone else’s) since 2008. That decade’s worth of data 
included every YouTube video he’d watched, every place he’d traveled to, every
website he’d visited in the last year and more. The file totaled up to a 
staggering 5.5 gigabytes — which is reportedly equivalent to three million Word
documents.

 

Along with their authoritarian surveillance, Google has repeatedly been called 
out for acts of censorship.

 

It’s not just Google you need to be worried about, unfortunately. Amazon’s 
Alexa has also come under fire for spying on users, and a new patent indicates
the problem of 
corporate surveillance is only going to get worse.
Amazon recently filed a patent for a “voice sniffer algorithm.” Effectively, 
this would allow Alexa to passively listen to your household conversations
in real-time, while waiting to identify “trigger words” that give Amazon 
insight into your home and your life.

 

Natural News founder Mike Adams, the Health Ranger and director of CWC Labs, 
recently reported on how dangerous these companies are
 and why they need to be stopped — before their totalitarian tactics become the 
law of the land.

[AI] Now Facebook claims a "software bug" caused it to accidentally keep copies of all your deleted videos.

(Natural News)
Facebook users can now find out what kind of information Facebook stores about 
them. You can download an archive of your Facebook records, including personal
messages, call records, IP addresses, ad clicks, interests, pictures, login 
times, connections and more. This is the information that Facebook stores that
they allow you to download and see.

 

Facebook has also been exposed for 
keeping copies of users’ deleted videos.
 The old deleted videos were detected by users who had downloaded an archive of 
their Facebook account. Facebook now claims that a software “bug” caused
these videos to appear in the archive, even though the deleted videos could 
easily be used by Facebook, which is in the business of using large swaths
of personal data to their advantage.

 

Facebook says the deleted footage was never shared publicly, but the footage 
could be used in a variety of other ways behind the scenes. Facebook has 
promised
to delete the videos now that users are taking notice of them in their archive 
and speaking out.

 

Since these deleted videos are showing up in the archive because of a “software 
bug,” we should wonder about other kinds of information that Facebook is
storing, information that doesn’t appear in the archived files that the user 
can download. Perhaps another “software bug” could reveal more information
that Facebook keeps, including voice records that were obtained by accessing 
users’ device microphone or videos recorded from users’ device camera? What’s
stopping them, when many apps ask to access your device’s camera and 
microphone? (Related: 
Facebook plan uncovered to SPY on users through their own smartphone cameras to 
analyze their facial expressions.)

 

Using people’s personal information against them

 

The kind of data that Facebook stores is the kind of data that is easily 
stolen, shared without permission or analyzed for marketing or political 
purposes.
These kinds of data logs (kept on every user) make it easy for political 
operatives to profile people and manipulate them with targeted ads and 
suggestions.
These data logs make it easy for surveillance agencies to track people’s 
whereabouts, get into people’s minds, fabricate evidence, and use blackmail 
tactics.
Facebook is a data goldmine for intelligence agencies and organizations with 
political agendas. (Related: 
Facebook has a file on you: Even if you don’t have an account, if you’re 
online, they track you through third-party activity.)

 

Political firms harvest personal data from Facebook to manipulate

 

Facebook is currently facing a privacy scandal over the harvesting of personal 
data on 50 million users by a political firm called Cambridge Analytica.
The communications firm has offices in New York, Washington, London, Brazil and 
Malaysia. Their team includes data scientists and behavioral psychologists
who specialize in utilizing data to move people to action. The firm boasts they 
have data on more than 230 million Americans and their analysis “played
a pivotal role in winning presidential races as well as congressional and state 
elections.”

 

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg
 has publicly apologized for the privacy breach, but apologies ring hollow when 
there is no accountability to ensue.

 

As Facebook users learn 
what Facebook really is,
they will have to make a choice. Should they continue to allow Facebook to keep 
a detailed record of their life so their private information can be accessed
by large data firms? Should they allow Facebook’s third-party advertisers to 
exploit people’s emotions and buying habits on the internet? Will Facebook
users continue to allow Facebook to analyze their clicks online so their 
personal interests and political affiliations can be used against them in an 
elaborate marketing
game?

 

Only time will tell, but the social media site is losing users by the day. See 
FacebookCollapse.com
 for more.

(Natural News)
They were blind, but now they see. Lab mice in China were given the ability to 
see again by a group of researchers thanks to the use of 
gold and titanium oxide as replacement materials
 for natural photoreceptors. This is the focus of a new study that was recently 
published in the journal Nature Communications, wherein scientists from

 

Fudan University
 and the 
University of Science and Technology of China
 detail a method that allowed blind mice to see again.

 

As a report on the study states, the researchers simply 
replaced the dead photoreceptors
 found in the blind lab mice with artificial versions that were made out of 
gold and titanium oxide. Evidently, these two materials can act as functional
replacements for the natural rods and cones that are found in the lab mice, 
which they use to produce electrical signals that are sent to their brains
when hit with photos.

 

It said that the artificial photoreceptors designed by the researchers come in 
the form of nanowires that have been studded with tiny gold flakes, which
effectively help tune the array to react to natural light in the visible 
spectrum. These nanowires were surgically implanted in the same exact place 
where
the original photoreceptors can be found, and were set up as such that they 
maintained physical contact with retinal cells. This allowed the replacement
photoreceptors to quickly pass along electrical signals to the brain. (Related: 
Is this artificial retina implant going to restore vision for millions of 
people?)

 

It’s a rather simple and straightforward solution, but the researchers say that 
it’s extremely effective. The replacement photoreceptors are said to be
responsive to light in the blue, green, and near ultraviolet spectrum, so while 
they do seem to grant vision, they aren’t meant to show full color just
yet. Still, the method devised by the researchers shows plenty of promise for 
future developments that could even surpass current standards of vision.

 

According to the researchers, the lab mice that were used in their experiments 
were genetically engineered to undergo a progressive degradation of their
natural photoreceptors, which lead to their eventual blindness. Their actual 
condition is similar to those who suffer from retinitis pigmentosa and macular
degeneration, which both destroy the eye’s ability to pass along information to 
the brain, thereby impairing eyesight. Interestingly, the rest of the visual
processing system is unaffected by such conditions, and that is how the 
researchers found their opening for their method.

 

In their tests, the researchers noted that the formerly blind lab mice were 
able to respond to light of comparable intensity when compared with normal
lab mice. And what’s more, it appeared that the artificial receptors put in 
place were sensitive to dots of light that were as small as less than 100 
micrometers
across, which is about the size of a human hair.

 

The responsiveness of the photoreceptors was measured by the researchers by 
observing the response of their visual cortex upon being hit by light. It is
said that the pupils of the mice even began to dilate again after some time, 
which showed that their eyes were indeed reacting to light once again. In
other words, the artificial “bridge” between the eyes and the brain they 
developed worked just as planned.

 

As for what exactly the mice were seeing when their eyes reacted to light, the 
researchers aren’t certain. They concluded that their visual cortexes work,
and that visual information was indeed passed along to the brain, but the 
actual images that the mice saw remain unclear. What’s clear is that after eight
weeks of testing, the formerly blind mice didn’t show any signs of discomfort 
or injury. Now it will only be a matter of time before this method is improved
upon and worthy of trial in humans.

(Natural News)
The internet used to be a relatively safe place. As long as you followed 
certain browsing guidelines, you could be fairly sure that your personal info
was safe, and that you didn’t need to worry about shady individuals who were 
looking to steal it for their own personal gain.

 

And in case your own efforts to keep your data safe aren’t enough, there are 
specialized tools that you can use to help protect yourself online. But when
the tools themselves are the ones doing the spying on you…well, that’s a 
different matter entirely. And a much more dangerous one, at that.

 

It may sound like a pretty scary yet unlikely scenario, but it seems like 
that’s the exactly the kind of thing that has happened with Facebook’s own VPN,
the mobile app called Onavo Protect. This app was first acquired by the social 
media giant a few years back, but until now it has stayed pretty much under
the radar. After 
a thorough investigation
 by one security researcher, the truth about it has finally been revealed.

 

According to Will Strafach, the Chief Executive Officer of the Sudo Security 
Group, he made the conscious decision to investigate the code used in the
version of the app available for iPhones and iPads in order to determine “
what types of data is collected
 in addition to the alleged per-app-MAU (monthly active users) tracking that 
happens” on the server side. He found that it uses certain app elements that
allow it to run in the background and keep collecting data about users, 
particularly about their actions on their phones, even when the app itself has
supposedly been turned off.

 

In revealing the details of his investigation, Strafach said that Onavo Protect 
periodically sends “the following data to Facebook (graph.facebook.com)
as the user goes about their day:”

 

list of 4 items
• When user’s mobile device screen is turned on and turned off;
• Total daily Wi-Fi data usage in bytes (even when VPN is turned off);
• Total daily cellular data usage in bytes (even when VPN is turned off); and
• Periodic beacon containing an “uptime” to indicate how long the VPN has been 
connected.
list end

 

Strafach does a good job of summarizing the short history of Onavo Protect, 
from its early days as an independent third-party security app in 2011, to
its multi-million dollar acquisition deal with Facebook where it became an 
add-on feature to the official Facebook app. “Onavo Protect collects device
information, network analytics, and ‘fact of’ certain events occurring,” he 
explained, referring to details of the data collection it performs. It isn’t
clear how exactly Facebook uses all this seemingly random and inconsequential 
data, but it’s being collected and sent to Facebook services, for sure.

 

Facebook is no stranger to doing morally questionable stuff within the confines 
of its sites and other properties. In 2016, it was discovered that it 
deliberately censors content
 on a number of topics, including immigration and vaccines. The mere fact that 
the service, as well as the company itself, has stayed up after all these
years is indicative of a bigger problem.

 

Recently, Facebook found itself in hot water yet again when an investigative 
report showed how it was used to manipulate millions of Americans across the
country, and even more people in other countries across the world. At this 
point, it’s quite clear that it could only be a matter of time before it gets
taken down for good. If it keeps up all these shady and morally questionable 
practices, that will probably happen sooner rather than later. For now, your
best move to avoid any problems that might happen because of Facebook is to 
simply stop using it.

(Natural News)
Is the popular social media website Facebook secretly tracking the phone calls 
you make and keeping them in a private data log? 
According to evidence
 compiled by a man from New Zealand, this appears to be the case, and many are 
now asking themselves: Why is Facebook owner Mark Zuckerberg not being 
prosecuted
for these privacy crimes?

 

Dylan McKay discovered this covert monitoring scheme by Facebook after perusing 
information about himself and his contacts that Facebook had apparently
stored in an archive. Based on what he was able to pull up, McKay was shocked 
to learn that Facebook had stored about two years’ worth of phone call metadata,
or basic incoming and outgoing call information, from his Android phone – 
including names, phone numbers, and length of calls made.

 

Disturbed by what he had discovered, McKay tweeted a screenshot on his Twitter 
account of the call log that Facebook had compiled. He wrote below the photo
that he had downloaded this data as a ZIP file from Facebook, noting that it 
contained his “entire call history with [his] partner’s mum.”

 

Once the news got out about this major data breach, many other Facebook users 
conducted similar experiments and found that the social media giant had been
collecting call data on them, too. It appears as though the only people being 
victimized by this invasion of privacy by Facebook are Android users, though
it’s possible that there are other devices that Facebook is capable of hacking 
as well.

 

After being alerted to the situation, Ars Technica writer Sean Gallagher 
performed his own independent assessment and, sure enough, he was able to pull
up a similar call log from Facebook that had been pulled from his Android 
device. He then contacted Facebook to find out why this was occurring, to which
he received the following somewhat erroneous response from a Facebook 
spokesperson:

 

The most important part of apps and services that help you make connections is 
to make it easy to find the people you want to connect with. So, the first
time you sign in on your phone to a messaging or social app, it’s a widely used 
practice to begin by uploading your phone contacts.

 

Maybe it’s time for a massive class-action lawsuit against Facebook for its 
egregious invasions of privacy?

 

It isn’t that people are upset about their contacts being synced to 
Facebook’s platform,
but rather that Facebook appears to be monitoring how people are using their 
Android mobile phones (and possibly other brands and systems), as well as
keeping tabs 
on other personal information
 like employment status and political affiliation. And while users are given 
the option to opt out of syncing their contact information with Facebook,
this does not appear to be the case with call and text logs – at least until 
recently.

 

According to Ars Technica, more recent versions of Facebook’s Messenger app for 
both Android and Facebook Lite devices makes an “explicit” request to users
to access their call and text logs. But in years past, even if users didn’t 
give permission to Messenger to access this data, it appears as though the
app collected it anyway.

 

“If you granted permission to read contacts during Facebook’s installation on 
Android a few versions ago – specifically before Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean)
– that permission also granted Facebook access to call and message logs by 
default,” Gallagher writes. “Apple iOS has never allowed access to call log
data by third-party apps, overt or silently, so this sort of data acquisition 
was never possible,” he adds.

 

Even after going in and purging his contact data from Facebook’s servers, 
Gallagher found that his contacts and calls were still in the archive that he
downloaded the next day. This suggests that anything Facebook users attempt to 
“delete” from their accounts never truly gets deleted.

Hi,

If you are looking for portability then Zebronics Tabbmate or Iball
Mistic should be helpful.

If you are looking for multi device connectivity then Logitech K480 is best.

I don't recommend Rivo as it has significant learning curve and
doesn't seem worth its price tag.

Cheers,
Ajay

Hi,

Consider Rivo's Bluetooth keyboard. Slightly expensive, you also need to oblige 
someone from UK or US to save on shipping, but it's compactness and the design 
is worth the effort.

Happy shopping!

Friends, I am looking for a wired/wireless keyboard that could be used to
operate both pc and mobiles.  Earlier some people had mentioned about
logitec keyboards for the said purpose. Kindly suggest the best keyboards.
