5G and fiber to the home will trigger the next internet revolution.

Bandwidth availability is driving the way services work. It is only a matter of time to have two ways virtual unlimited bandwidth availability. What will be the impact of this?

In short: more individual freedom!

Exchanging bulk data (primarily multi media) today goes via a service middleman. Facebook, Instagram, Google, .... name them.

The internet will get less server and server-center dominated. People will start use apps that communicate with their home rather than with a "public" platform.

The impact will colossal.

De EU en de crypto war! Overheid zie toch eens de kansen!!

  Naar aanleiding van het uitstekende artikel van Fred Hage in de Computable van  27 november 2020. Overheden worstelen met End-to-end encryptie en ‘lawful interception’. Met andere woorden privacy op internet aan de ene kant en de mogelijkheid criminaliteit te onderzoeken aan de andere kant. Het blijft me verbazen dat overheden blind zijn voor de kansen die dit dilemma biedt! Stel "ik kan bij de NL-overheid mijn encryptie regelen" (met de wetenschap dat ze mee kunnen kijken). Dan doe ik dat toch zolang ik niets te verbergen heb! Dus: Overheid wordt eens wakker en bied zelf encryptie services aan! Ga met de betrokken internet diensten zoals Google, Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft .. etc. om de tafel zitten en ontwikkel encryptiediensten en standaards voor (vertrouwde) burgers waar ze gebruik van kunnen maken. De diensten kunnen dan vertrouwd verkeer van onvertrouwd verkeer onderscheiden. Ze kunnen vertrouwd verkeer direct, eventueel automatisch, onderzoeken. En me...

Salary scale-up percentage under pressure

 In my earning norm model , I have lowered the scale-up to adapt to the crisis. What is the scale-up? The scale-up is the gross salary multiplier from the scale below.

But this figure will come down the coming time because of the economic insecure times we are about to experience. Depending on the economic developments it probably has to be lowered in the coming months. I will follow the developments and adapt the model accordingly. Scale up It is now 1.3 (+30%)

Google fails but Firefox too!

Google clearly gets more and more influenced by typical old style USA marketing people. And with that it loses the quality edge. Youtube and other advertising platforms present you all the time with advertisements not fitting your interests. Cashing with it on de advertiser and annoying you with sounds and images about things you never will buy! Google introduces Chromebooks (a nice and user friendly Linux solution) but then marketing comes in and you need to replace your hardware every 3 to 5 years. They have a super photo storage solution but then marketing comes in and you are in the dark. Chromecast was nice until marketing came in and stopped with chromecast audio. Now we have creepy listeners all over the house. (Or you stop using chromecast as I did). I liked Google but it starts to annoy me more and more. I love their innovative power and their openness toward open-source. But I hate the increasing influence by creepy sales. I'm sad about the poor sense for customer needs b...
