If you find an error when downloading Netflix videos, it could be due to one of these limitations

In November 2016 Netflix finally arrived at one of the most anticipated features by streaming service users: downloading videos to watch offline with seemingly few limitations.

Although originally it seemed that the only limitation was the expiration of 30 days that the downloaded content has, or that you can only download videos on two mobile devices at the same time, the truth is that there are more limitations on what you can read in the same center. Netflix help.

Of the people who dedicate themselves to Open Source, only 3% are women

Today, a large part of the software we use is developed following the Open Source philosophy. From the web, through programs that we use every day, a good part of Linux distributions and almost everything in general has been created through a collaborative effort of developers who contribute with code.

However, and as we have seen in a report published by GitHub, it is a community that has its own problems. For example, it is not inclusive, and only 3% of women participate in Open Source projects as it is collected. This report is the result of a survey conducted by the code repository.

Communications encrypted in the IoT are not enough to protect the privacy of users

According to a study published by researchers at Princeton University that has been echoed by HelpNetSecurity, although many IoT devices for smart homes encrypt their traffic, any “passive observer of the network” (such as an Internet provider) can detect the behavior of the users and other details analyzing the metadata of their traffic rate.

You can now upload photos from the Instagram web version

That Facebook and the applications that it owns (see Instagram or WhatsApp) want to grow and become a reference is something that we have already commented on in other articles. For this, the social network and its associated apps have adopted the strategy of always trying to stay one step ahead of their rivals (in addition to cloning Snapchat to the beast, but that’s another story).

39 Word templates to organize it ALL

Microsoft Word is without a doubt the most famous word processor on the planet. It has more than 30 years of existence, and since the end of the 80s when the first version for Windows came out, the program took off in the skies and amassed millions and millions of users for its ease of use.

Now, many years after those first versions, there is much that has evolved the application along with the rest of Office tools. Word is much more than just a word processor, and the amount of things we can do with it is almost unlimited.

Laptops and applications are used to spy on students, according to an EFF study

There is more and more technology in the classrooms. In the United States, students are receiving laptops for educational purposes, which are connected to cloud services through which they receive the teaching material. The way in which privacy is treated in these services is going through great changes, something that concerns the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF).

Twitter seeks to restore relations with developers

The platform of “microblogging” wants to make a clean slate with the developers after countless maneuvers that have limited and damaged their collaboration.

It will do so by unifying its application programming interface (API) to “make it easier for programmers to develop new applications that can be easily scaled according to their growth,” the San Francisco-based company says in a statement.
