OFW Thankful to Pres. Duterte for Immediate Response on Housing Problem Which is Under VP Robredo

Some Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) sent a letter to popular social media personality Sass Rogando Sasot, the one who helped them in making their concern go viral and reached the Office of the President.



According to Sasot on her Facebook Page, the problems of the OFW was supposed to be responded by the agency under the leadership of Vice President Leni Robredo but instead of the expected helped from Robredo, the respond came from the Office of the President.

Vice President Leni Robredo is the chairperson of the Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Council (HUDCC) but instead of replying to the e-mail sent by Sasot, the Office of the President responded immediately together with the DTI as they endorsed the letter sent by the OFW to HLURB.

Sasot also noted on her post that the concerned OFW who sent the letter will be receiving his refund from the company they complain despite the fact that VP Robredo did not do anything on their problem.

Here's the Complete Statement of Sass Rogando Sasot:

MARAMING SALAMAT SA INYO!
THE POWER OF SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN
GOOD JOB DTI AND OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT!
AND HOUSING CHAIR VP ROBREDO, ANYARE?

Last August, may mga kumausap sa aking mga OFWs tungkol sa problema nila with ProFriends na isang real estate developer. Simple lang ang gusto nila: ang ma-post ko sa Page na ito ang kanilang reklamo. Noong una ang sabi ko sa kanila na lumapit sila kay VP Robredo. Nagawa na pala nila. So I posted their concern sa aking wall para kahit papaano umusad. Napakabigat ng nangyari sa kanila.
Today, nag-email sa akin ang isa sa kanila. At ito ang kanyang sinabi:

NILO (he requested to keep his name confidential):

R. Tiglao Exposed LTO Records Showing Aquino Never Bought or Sold a Porsche

Veteran columnist Rigoberto Tiglao exposed the Land Transportation Office (LTO) records of former President Benigno Aquino III showing that he never bought or sold an expensive Porsche car. The LTO records proved that the former President did not sold his Porsche 911 Carrera car which he claimed he bought for P5 million. The controversial Porsche car of the former President made headlines just months into his presidency but he explained that he bought the luxury car with the proceeds he got when he sold his BMW. Because of the furor from such display of opulence, Pres. Aquino claimed to have sold it six months later for exactly the same price. According to Tiglao during that time he asked through his column the LTO to release the car's deed of sale and registration to prove that it was not a gift from a Chinese-Filipino tycoon as rumored by some individuals critical to the President. The only possible way to discover whether the Porsche luxury was indeed sold was through ...

You can pay at a restaurant by smiling at a camera

© Provided by Engadget As easy as it is to make purchases in the era of tap-to-pay services , it's about to get easier still. Alipay (which handles purchases for Chinese shopping giant Alibaba) has launched what it says is the first payment system that uses facial recognition to complete the sale. If you visit one of KFC's KPRO restaurants in Hangzhou, China, you can pay for your panini or salad by smiling at a camera-equipped kiosk -- you need to verify the purchase on your phone, but you don't have to punch in digits or bring your phone up to an NFC reader. The system (Smile to Pay) is purportedly resistant to spoofing with photos and other tricks. It relies on both depth-sensing cameras and a "likeness detection algorithm" to make sure it's really you. Reportedly, the technology is good enough that it can accurately identify people even when they're disguising themselves through makeup or wigs. You shouldn't have to worry about someone buying ...

Tesla cloud account hacked to mine cryptocurrency

© Provided by The Hill An unidentified outside hacker infiltrated Tesla's Amazon cloud account and used its systems to quietly mine for cryptocurrencies, a cybersecurity firm announced Tuesday. The hack also potentially exposed the electric car company's data. Researchers for RedLock found that Tesla's credentials on an IT administrative console were not password protected. They made the discovery while trying to track down which organizations had left their Amazon Web Services (AWS) credentials openly exposed on the internet last month. The hackers quietly hijacked the console and began running scripts to generate virtual currency like bitcoin, the latest in a series of "cryptojacking" attacks. The researchers also found the hackers used "sophisticated evasion measures" to go undetected. A spokesperson for Tesla said the company learned about the breach in a company-sanctioned bug bounty program that pays outside hackers to discover vulnerabilitie...
