How Carney's new nature strategy is not all about national parks | CBC News

The new approaches could provide an important boost to conservation in Canada and reduce the burden on Ottawa to do the work alone, but experts say if it’s not done correctly, these other-conserved areas may end up existing on paper but not providing the level of protection necessary for ecosystems to thrive.

LinkedIn Is Illegally Searching Your Computer

Microsoft is running one of the largest corporate espionage operations in modern history. Every time any of LinkedIn’s one billion users visits linkedin.com, hidden code searches their computer for installed software, collects the results, and transmits them to LinkedIn’s servers and to third-party companies including an American-Israeli cybersecurity firm. The user is never asked. Never told. LinkedIn’s privacy policy does not mention it. Because LinkedIn knows each user’s real name, employer, and job title, it is not searching anonymous visitors. It is searching identified people at identified companies. Millions of companies. Every day. All over the world.

Why the #ThirdWay Failed

UPDATE: The title '...Third Way Failed ' was enough to peak my interest. I haven't read the book and I've not seen suggestions in this book for something better. So I do not know if the author proposes #socialism, #democraticSocialism or anything else.
But I did want to find a book which recognises that the Third Way failled.

Why the US Navy won't blast the Iranians and 'open' Strait of Hormuz

The era of carrier-dominated airpower is fading, as cheap, unmanned anti-ship weapons reshape naval warfare, whether US planners are ready for it or not.
