Apple pulls infected Chinese apps from iTunes app store (article)

  • Security researchers Palo Alto Networks discovered that 39 iPhones and iPads were infected with malware. 
  • One of the infected apps was WeChat, the super-popular Chinese mobile messaging app used by 600 million people. 
  • All of the affected apps were developed in China, and they all used a modified version of Apple's software development kit known as Xcode, which had been manipulated by hackers.
  • Downloading items from Apple while in China can be painfully slow. People in China often try to download apps and tools from alternate websites and servers, it can cause bitter consequences; like hackers and malware.

Web 2.0: Multimedia Blog Pre-Posting

     I am taking Biology this year with Mr. Man. I expect to learn more about the anatomy of the human body, chemistry, and about living organisms. I've learned a lot about chemistry so far. I've learned about the Periodic Table, about protons, neutrons, electrons, and about how elements bond. Like most classes, Mr. Man counts tests and projects for the highest percentage of our overall grades.
     I am most excited to learn about the anatomy of the human body. I am excited to learn about the body, about how it works, and the different processes it goes through. The human anatomy is really interesting and I am very excited to learn about it! I know that Mr. Man is going to be a great and inspiring teacher. 
      So far, Mr. Man has been great. He makes sure that everybody understands what he's teaching before he continues. If they don't, he explains and then moves on. He provides many examples that'll help the class understand the topic. He's also hilarious, He makes class full of science and fun. He even has a website. On his website you can find helpful resources, grading policy, and homework (in case you missed it). I am most excited for Biology I can tell it's going to be great! If you want to be introduced to Biology, here's a video for you.
