We were always a wicked

 I would always be wrong to say that we are embracing wickedness out of blue or our surrounding has gone delusion-ed when compared to yesterday. Deceit, deranged, dichotomous, you mention any cringe word from dictionary and you can find it in our connections. 

 


But none of this had a bearing on our perception w.r.t. recreational understanding. There was an unwritten understanding between the two extremities to not to cross each others path. And thus our younger generation were insulated from the parched thoughts to help them design their own future based on principles of universal brotherhood.

As there was consensus being formed amongst adamant fundamentalists on keeping the future away from the self centrist mentality, a personality that believes in dismembering consensus has made a headway to un-groom the holistic approach being infused within the senses of the projected.

 

Does this mean our strides in purported acceptance of mentored future gone awry? The answer doesn't lie in a straight forward  dynamism, but we can be assured that there has been a damage to credible holistic view. It is time to ascertain who were influenced by the polity based on integrity and who just coerced themselves citing crowd mania.

Abhivyakti kho jayo sarkari suvidhayen lo

 "yes gentlemen!! Were you able to unlock the password? You know its the top most priority. We have orders from the highest level and has to be done right now." This would be regular life of the investigative agencies. Locking and unlocking, blocking and unblocking, arresting and releasing. Investigating officials follow one of the puppetry execution of the duty without any room for expressing their personal point of view regarding the subject. They have to remember what their higher ups are interested in and forget what their higher ups are disinterested about.

 Membership mania is real. Wonder why when we are included as part of an organization and subsequent membership requires us to submit our uniqueness replacing it with so called motto of the organization. You may argue that our very own decision of subscribing to the membership is willingness to accept the motto of the organization.

But is it really a choice that we have, in deciding rationality behind subscribing to the motto? We are living in era wherein a simply residential certificate from local Councillor or Ward member is perceived as our concurrence to their party motto. 

 Service is governed by rules of service seekers satisfaction and hence government services are governed by citizen's satisfaction rather than peeking into the citizen profiling and hence varying the degree of service based on the profiled data.

ಒಂದು ಜನಾಂಗ ಒಂದು ಕನಸು

 ಕನಸು ನನಸು ಮಾಡುವುಧು ಒಂದು ಕಲೆ. ಕನಸು ನಮ್ಮ  ಅಂತಾರಾಳಧಾ ಪ್ರತಿಬಿಂಬವಾಗಿಧೆ. ಅವರವರ ಅನುಭವ, ಮನಸ್ಸಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಅಡಿಗಿಟ್ಟಿರುವ ಭವಿಷ್ಯತೀನ ಎಧುರುನೋಟ ಇವೆಲ್ಲಧರ ಒಂದು ಭಾಗವೇ ಕನಸ್ಸು. ಕನಸ್ಸಿಗು ಮನಸಿಗೂ ಒಂದು ಅವಿಭಾಜ್ಯ ಬಂಧನವು ಇರುತ್ತದೇ. 

ಕನಸು ವಿವಿಧ ರೀತಿಯ ಅನುಭವು ನೀಡುತದೇ, ಆ ಅನುಭವು ಸಿಹಿಯಾಗಿಯೂ ಇರಭವುಧು ಕಹಿಯನ್ನು ಉಂಟು ಮಾಡಬಾವುಧು. ಯಾಂತ್ರಿಕ ಜೀವನಧಲ್ಲಿ ನಾವು ಮಾನವರಾಗಿ ಉಳಿಧಿರುವುಧು ಈ ಒಂದು ಕನಸನಿಂಧಗಿಯೇ. ಆಧ್ರೆ ಇಂಧಿನ ಕೃತಕವಾಗಿ ಯೋಚಿಸುವ ನಾಯಕರು ನಿಮ್ಮ  ನಯ್ಸರ್ಗಿಕವಧ ಕನಸನ್ನು ಮೆಟ್ಟಿನಿಂತು ಅಧರ ಭಧಲು ಒಳ ಸಂಚಿನಿಂಧ ಕೂಡಿರುವ ತಮ್ಮ ಕೃತಕ ಆಧಾರಿತ ಕನಸನ್ನು ನಿಮ್ಮಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇರುವ ಧುಶ್ಚಟಕ್ಕೆ ತಮ್ಮನ್ನು ತೊಡಗಿಸಿಕೊಂಡಿಧಾರೆ.

ಪ್ರಕೃತಿ ನೀಡಿರುವ ಕನಸು ಕಾಣುವ ಅಭಿವ್ಯಕ್ತ ಸ್ವಾತಂತ್ರ್ಯವು ಹಲ್ಲೆಗೆ ಒಳ್ಳಪಟ್ಟಿದೇ. ಒಂದು ದೇಶ ಒಂದು ಧಾರ್ಮ, ಒಂದು ದೇಶ ಒಂದು ಪಂಗಡ, ಒಂದು ದೇಶ ಒಂದು ಭಾಷೆ ಅನ್ನುವ ಸಾಲಿನಲ್ಲಿ, ಒಂದು ಜನಾಂಗ ಒಂದು ಕನಸ್ಸು ಅನ್ನುವ ಹಾಧಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ನಮ್ಮ ಸಾರ್ಯತ್ವ ಸಾಗಿಧೆ. ಮೇಲ್ನೋಟಕ್ಕೆ ಇದು ನಮ್ಮ ಒಗ್ಗಟ್ಟನ್ನು ಸಾರಿದರು ನಮ್ಮ ಪ್ರತ್ಯಕಥನ್ನು ಪ್ರೀತುಸುವ ಪ್ರಪಂಚ ನೀತಿಯ ವಿರೋಧವಾಗಿ ರೂಪಿಸುವ ತಂತ್ರಗಾರಿಕೆಯನ್ನು ಸೂಚಿಸುತದೇ.

Leaving behind an impression

Our local social system is basically driven by an assumption that we are privileged version of universe and rest of world can wait for us. This assumption or illusion is shared even by a just born baby to elder waiting to die the next second.

 

I am not going to debate whether this shared assumption is right or wrong as there is no use in realizing its pros and cons at the fag end of the evolutionary process. I am just at cross roads as to how it impacts collective conscience. I mean what do we think we are privileged about. Till yesterday I was under the impression that we were privileged to spread the message of humbleness, to use privilege to veto out the arrogance of power and so on.

We can really visualize the future wherein the assumption of being privileged are promulgated to fuel self pride, that is we have started to weaponize the assumption of privileged to pump up the adrenaline rush to feel proud of being privileged instead of pitching it to be a part of the consortium.

 

This gives raise to elementary problem of have we really understand roles and responsibility of being privileged which is not a sudden phenomenon but a result of a hereditary handover to safeguard the interests of the merchants of good.

Journey and milestone

 Its always hard to resist deviations but makes sure your journey never stops or in short you loose your right to decide the path of journey for sake of some probational milestones which doesn't allow you to appropriate the same as a part of your making in progress.

 

 I can dwell deeper and I will find no qualms in exposing the comfort zone however risky form it may take. You are made to involve beyond the boundaries set by the rules of game, and you are rightly passionate enough to engage with much fervour as you were made to believe that journey shall be rewarding without even wondering whether the said milestone is upgrading your fantasy or someone is going to shape what your journey is suppose to be or to even a extent that cut short the journey citing the non-availability of bandwidth.

We are hopeful of better days with a belief that our journey is going to be routed through the days of prosperity that might add new dimensions to the character of journey enabling us to prepare us for the challenges ahead to make sure our zeal for journey isn't confiscated.

 

This abstract idea of journey and milestone is quite localized and are recorded by fellow travelers in a abstract manner wherein you cannot pull up socks on your own without the involvement of fellow beings. An individual who has mastered art of appropriation will not hesitate to replace your milestones with that of his, replace his journey with that of yours tempting you of wider access to the space wherein he himself has been barred to pursue.

Hackers are new age whistleblowers

What Is Whistleblowing?

The practice of revealing information to stop wrongdoing is called whistleblowing. A whistleblower reveals information about negligence, malpractice or illegal activity to a trusted source. It often occurs between a company and an employee, and whistleblowers can report information to their employer or choose to go public.

Can Whistleblowing Be Used for Good?

Whistleblowing poses risks to consumer data, but the company getting called out is usually already taking such risks. Whistleblowers who are careful about revealing information can do good. Multiple government agencies exist specifically to protect this info when this occurs, so a whistleblower can protect people’s privacy by going directly to them. Even if someone is doing this out of spite, companies engaging in illegal or unethical practices deserve to be held accountable.

Whistleblowing in cybersecurity?

The most important role of whistleblowers in cybersecurity is to hold companies accountable to security regulations. Data breach laws are becoming more common, but enforcing them in every instance can be challenging, with over 15 million records leaking in 2022 alone.

Whistleblowers may not be an official part of a company’s cybersecurity posture, but they serve an important purpose in the security industry as a whole.

Ideally, businesses will never have to deal with these cases, but that should come from a place of compliance, not discouraging whistleblowers themselves.

Organizations must take regulatory compliance more seriously as whistleblower protections rise. That trend can push more companies toward a higher security standard, reducing cybercrime’s impact on their business and customers.

Just how safe are whistleblowers under Indian law?

 In India, whistleblowers are protected by the Whistle Blowers Protection Act, 2014. The law provides for the protection of their identity and also has strict norms to prevent their victimization. For instance, an organization cannot initiate proceedings against a whistleblower pending a probe into allegations. The same sections have been adopted in the Companies Act, which applies to listed companies, and are a part of the Securities and Exchange Board of India’s governance norms. All listed and public sector firms need to have a whistleblower policy that outlines procedures and recourses available to complainants.

Unfortunately there are no laws in India to specifically serve whistleblowers in cybersecurity domain I mean digital world.

AI powered karsevak

Karsevaks are people who volunteer their services for free to a religious cause, the term being derived from the Sanskrit words 'kar' (hand) and 'sevak' (servant). Ayodhya-based karsevaks are a group who demanded the Ram temple in Ayodhya for over decades and struggled vehemently to achieve it. 

 

 A necklace on the humanoid changed colour from green to orange, and it shook its head before giving out the answer with informative details as other children curiously listened. This silk saree-draped humanoid is 'Iris', the first AI teacher unveiled in Kerala. A disturbed network connection and the chatter from the children often slowed down Iris as it tried to catch the noises, presuming them to be questions asked to 'her'. And when there were too many noises, Iris took time to process the question. But when the hall was silent and a student asked a question, either from their syllabus or anything under the sun, Iris gave out the answer in no time, with examples and references. 

You might be wondering what is the link between Karsevaks and AI humanoid teacher. I wondered what was stopping the AI humanoid from taking a form of a Karsevak, I mean a AI humanoid karsevak. Isn't it something debating aspect of confluence of scientific world and spiritual world?

 

 

When a simple stone idol can attain the status of god after a 'prana prathistapan', don't you think our ancient scriptures had the ability I mean art of converting a AI humanoid into a karsevak, if not a god by itself.
