Sass Rogando Sasot Chides VP Leni Robredo for Giving Unsolicited Advice to Pres. Duterte

Political analyst and a well-known supporter of Pres. Rody Duterte on social media, Sass Rogando Sasot criticized Vice President Leni Robredo for giving unsolicited advice to Pres. Duterte as the VP wants the President to focus on War on Poverty and not on War on Drugs.

 
During VP Robredo's speech in a forum hosted by the UP School of Economics, she called on Pres. Dutert to help the poor by focusing on the war against poverty and to lead the country in respecting human rights.

VP Robredo stated that the Philippines cannot be saved by "false prophets of change who claim tha they are the people's last hope."

The Vice President added further that "Poverty is the real problem, but we are distracted by political agenda and ambition. Mr. President, we call you to task. In behalf of the Filipino people, whose daily struggles are escalating, we ask you to focus on the war that really matters: the war on poverty. Our people are hungry, jobless and poor,” the Vice President said.

Due to the statement of Vice President Leni Robredo, netizens took to social media to criticize her statements enumerating some of the President's effort to eradicate poverty in the Philippines which the previous Aquino administration failed to solved.

According to Sass Sasot, she agrees with VP Leni Robredo's advice but asks something to the Vice President whether the projects of the Duterte admin are part of the War Against Poverty.

Leni Robredo wants Duterte to focus on War on Poverty. Okay, Leni, does that include:

- free tertiary education for those who can't afford it

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...
