The problems with the electric cars and data security

The electric cars are problematic for privacy because every time the customer loads the car, could that device send also many types of information to the unknown part. That data would contain very specific information of driving speed to location, and if that data can be connected to data, what is collected from the mobile devices GPS-systems, the third part would know where the owner of the car is visiting often, and also who is with that owner.


When we are talking about other data, what would be collected by those load points, is if the person would drive over speed, because if the top speed of the vehicle is more than the top allowed speed in the country, would that mean, that the person drives too fast. Also how the person would use the gas pedal, would that tell that if this person is suspected for driving drunken. This same data can be collected from vehicles by using "lambda", what reads the memory of the cars computer, what controls the usage of the motor and gas pedal. In those cases, we must say, that street is not a racetrack, and that's why authorities explain the usage of that information.


But there are some other problems with electric cars, and those things are computer viruses, what could take those cars to control. In those cases, the car would become very dangerous, because if the computer viruses take the control of the vehicle in the wrong place, that could cause the terrible accident. In this case, the entire computer programs of the cars computer would be replaced with malware and that malware would use car's GPS-system to find out the most horrifying place to take the car for increasing the speed.


And that could be very dangerous. Those computer viruses can be very complicated. They can install by using USB-stick or by some other method. Those computer viruses can cause the physical injuries for people if they infect the wrong computer controlled device. If that device is some kind of automobile or train that could cause the terrible situation. If the brakes of the car would not work even the simple computer virus can cause the very bad situation.

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

(Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th

Iron Dome is one of the most effective air defense systems.

The Iron Dome is a missile defense system whose missiles operate with highly sophisticated and effective artificial intelligence. The power of this missile defense base is in selective fire. The system calculates the incoming missile's trajectory. And it shoots only missiles that will hit the inhabited area. The system saves missiles and focuses defense on areas that mean something. The system shares the incoming missiles in, maybe two groups. Another is harmless and another is harmful.  Things like killer drones are also problematic because their trajectories are harder to calculate than ballistic missiles. The thing that makes drones dangerous is that they can make masks for ballistic missiles. And even if those drones are slow, all of them must be shot down.  The thing is that the cooperation between drone swarms and ballistic missiles is the next danger in conflict areas. In the film, you can see how drones make light images of the skies. The killer drones can also carry LED li

The innovative shield that protects OSIRIS-APEX can also protect the new hypersonic aircraft.

"NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft successfully completed its closest solar pass, protected by innovative engineering solutions and showing improvements in onboard instruments.

The mission plan is to research the sun. And especially find things that can warn about solar storms. Solar storms are things that can danger satellites at the Earth orbiter. And the purpose of OSIRIS-APEX is to find the method of how to predict those solar storms. Another thing is that the OSIRIS-APEX tests the systems and materials that protect this probe against heat and plasma impacts.  The same technology. The researchers created for OSIRIS-APEX can used in the materials and structures. That protects satellites against nuclear explosions. That means this kind of system delivers information on how to prot
