Alphabet CEO Pichai can be questioned in privacy lawsuit, judge rules

 Google has previously stated that it makes it clear that Incognito only suspends data to be stored on a user's device and fights charges. Plaintiffs who accuse Google of Alphabet Inc of tracking their illegal internet use while in "Incognito" browsing mode can ask Chief Executive Sundar Photosi for up to two hours, a California state judge ruled. In a lawsuit filed in June 2020, users accused Google of illegally encrypting their privacy through the use of the Internet while Google Chrome browsers were set to "private" mode. Proponents of her case have been working to make the actual transcript of this statement available online. Google spokesman José Castañeda told Reuters the new applications were "baseless and cunning." Although we strongly oppose the allegations in this case, we are cooperating with the countless claims of the plaintiffs ... We will continue to defend ourselves vigorously, ”Castañeda said.Pichasi in 2019 was warned that defining th...

Saphala Ekadashi vrat katha: सफलता की राह खोलता है सफला एकादशी का व्रत, फल प्राप्‍त‍ि के ल‍िए पढ़ें ये कथा

 Saphala Ekadashi vrat katha in hindi: हिंदू धर्म में एकादशी का विशेष महत्व है। पौष मास के कृष्ण पक्ष की एकादशी को सफला एकादशी कहा जाता है। विष्णु पुराण में उल्लेखित एक कथा के अनुसार जिस प्रकार नागों में शेषनाग, पक्षियों में गरुण, ग्रहों में चंद्रमा, यज्ञों में अश्वमेध और देवताओं में भगवान विष्णु सर्वश्रेष्ठ हैं उसी प्रकार सभी व्रतों में एकादशी का व्रत सर्वश्रेष्ठ है। मान्यता है कि यह एकादशी अपने नाम के अनुरूप मनुष्य को सफलता प्रदान करने वाली होती है। इस दिन श्रीहरि भगवान विष्णु की पूजा अर्चना करने से सभी मनोकामनाएं पूर्ण होती हैं और विशेष फल की प्राप्ति होती है। तथा जीवन के सभी सुखों को भोगने के बाद वैकुण्ठ लोक की प्राप्ति होती है। इस बार सफला एकादशी का व्रत 30 दिसंबर 2021 गुरुवार को है। पौराणिक कथाओं के अनुसार यज्ञ और दान करने से उतना पुण्य प्राप्त नहीं होता जितना एकादशी व्रत का पालन करने से होता है। धार्मिक मान्यताओं के अनुसार सफला एकादशी व्रत का श्रवण करने से व्यक्ति को अपने सभी कार्यों में सफलता मिलती है और धन संबंधी समस्याओं का निवारण होता है, बिना व्रत कथा के एकादशी पूजा विध...

Newcastle vs. Manchester United score: Red Devils drop points in lackluster showing

 Manchester United snatched a fine five-point lead over fourth-placed Arsenal in the Premier League, finding it difficult to draw 1-1 in Newcastle on Monday. The Red Devils played very long in the 90 minutes and probably deserved less than the point they got, with the team lacking cohesion and not being on the same page at all. It looks like Man United have slower passes than those that work well as the team has failed to score more goals in the Premier League for the third game in a row. It took Newcastle just seven minutes to lead due to Allan Saint-Maximin's fine play. United came back and equalized in the 71st minute thanks to replacement Edinson Cavani. United goalkeeper David de Gea was forced to retire late, and needed a post to rescue his team from relegation. The visitors had just four shots on goalposts throughout the game despite 70 per cent management, while the Magpies had eight shots and performed very well, looking to do damage to the counter. At Newcastle, picking p...

RBL Bank: Brokers downgrade stock after leadership changes and RBI action

NEW DELHI : RBL Bank NSE shares -4.4.4% reached a 20 per cent regional level on Monday trading after some leadership from lenders caused a sharp drop in the number of brokers. The bank board has accepted the request of MD and CEO Vishwavir Ahuja to continue "medical leave". The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has appointed Yogesh Dayal by the RBI as an additional director to the banking board for two years. Rajeev Ahuja, executive director, has been appointed as interim executive director and CEO. Analysts say the new development is surprising as Ahuja, 62, has six months left in her seat. Although there have been RBI appointments in the past, it was usually in weak banks like YES Bank, Ujjvan Bank and Dhanlaxmi Bank. Neither the RBL nor the regulator has given us a reason so far with the appointment of Dayal, who is also the chief executive officer of the central bank. But analysts are cautious. External brokerage CLSA calls the RBI movement as shocking and adds that the move wi...

PM Modi’s short-notice address cleared air on booster doses

 New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi's decision to address the nation on Saturday night in short notice was prompted by the need to speak out on resolutions to initiate stimulant doses and vaccination of children without unnecessary speculation. Instead of leaving the matter to the authorities and the media, PM Modi outlined the steps to be taken to get the "cautionary dose" (as he chose to call encouraging shots) and set the conclusions in the context of the current Covid situation in the country. Sources said the reference for "monitoring" doses needs to be seen in the context of studies and surveys that highlight the high level of "hybrid insecurity" in the country caused by vaccination and infection from time to time. Infection in such cases may be asymptomatic as sero-type tests were performed that show immunosuppression even in children who did not receive the vaccine. Therefore, boosters can best be considered as “vigilant” doses for those a...
