Pres. Rody Duterte Reveals Reasons Why He Don't Want to Reveal the Third Narco List

The very first President of the Philippines from Mindanao, President Rodrigo Duterte revealed the main reasons why he don't want to reveal to the public the controversial third "narco list" in his possession right now. According to the President, the list of personalities involved in illegal drug trades "will just make Filipinos cry."



Pres. Rody Duterte upon his arrival at the Davao City International Airport from his successful three-day visit to Japan which yields the Philippines around $19 billion dollar in investments and loans, he noted that latest list practically comprises the drug industry in the country.

On his statement in front of the local, national and international press in Davao City, the 71-year-old President was quoted as saying "I do not want to make this public (the narco list) because it will just make the Filipino cry," the President said.

The 16th President of the Philippines added further that "Sinong? Tingnan ninyo mabuti ha. That's why I want to talk to Congress. I want to talk to the judiciary, Supreme Court. I want to talk to the military, the service commanders. Hindi ko kaya ito."

"Ang taga Human Rights mag-commit ng suicide kung tapusin ko itong lahat," the President added.

President Duterte became the first President of the Republic of the Philippines who bravely disclosed publicly the alleged list of drug lords, politicians and police personnel who were involved in the illegal drug trades in the country which include at least five police generals.

The President also noted that he was "dumbfounded" that he still ended up with a thick list of so called narco politicians and personalities even after thorough investigations and ordering concerned government agencies to re-validate the information.

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...
