左派還是右派 Facebook已給你貼上標籤
You may think you are discreet about your political views. But Facebook, the world’s largest social media network, has come up with its own determination of your political leanings, based on your activity on the site.
你可能覺得自己在表達政治觀點時非常謹慎。不過，世界上最大的社交媒體網路Facebook已經根據你在該網站上的活動，自行決定了你的政治傾向。
And now, it is easy to find out how Facebook has categorized you — as very liberal or very conservative, or somewhere in between.
現在，很容易找出Facebook對你的歸類——極端自由派、極端保守派，或者介於兩者之間。
Try this ***it works best on your desktop computer***:
試一下吧***在臺式電腦上最方便***：
Go to on your browser. ***You may have to log in to Facebook first.***
在瀏覽器上開啟
That will bring you to a page with your ad preferences. Under the “Interests” header, click the “Lifestyle and Culture” tab.
你會看到一個關於你的廣告偏好的網頁。點選“興趣”***Interests***那一欄的“生活方式和文化”按鈕***Lifestyle and Culture***。
Then look for a box titled “US Politics.” In parentheses, it will describe how Facebook has categorized you, such as liberal, moderate or conservative.
然後尋找一個名叫“美國政治”***US Politics***的方框。括號裡寫著Facebook對你的歸類，比如自由派、溫和派或保守派。
***If the “US Politics” box does not show up, click the “See more” button under the grid of boxes.***
***如果“美國政治”方框沒有出現，那就點選那一堆方框下面的“更多”[See more]按鈕。***
Facebook makes a deduction about your political views based on the pages that you like — or on your political preference, if you stated one, on your profile page. If you like the page for Hillary Clinton, Facebook might categorize you as a liberal.
Facebook根據你喜歡的網頁對你的政治觀點做出推斷——或者是根據你在簡介頁面註明的政治傾向***如果你註明了的話***。如果你喜歡希拉里•克林頓***Hillary Clinton***的主頁，那麼Facebook可能把你歸為自由派。
Even if you do not like any candidates’ pages, if most of the people who like the same pages that you do — such as Ben and Jerry’s ice cream — identify as liberal, then Facebook might classify you as one, too.
就算你不喜歡瀏覽候選人的主頁，如果跟你瀏覽相同網頁***比如Ben and Jerry’s牌冰激凌***的大部分人被認定為自由派，那麼Facebook可能也把你歸入自由派。
Facebook has long been collecting information on its users, but it recently revamped the ad preferences page, making it easier to view.
Facebook長期以來一直在收集使用者資訊，不過它最近改進了廣告偏好網頁，讓它更易於瀏覽。
The information is valuable. Advertisers, including many political campaigns, pay Facebook to show their ads to specific demographic groups. The labels Facebook assigns to its users help campaigns more precisely target a particular audience.
這些資訊很有價值。廣告商，包括很多政治競選機構，花錢讓Facebook把自己的廣告展示給特定的細分群體。Facebook給使用者加的標籤能幫助競選團隊更精準地鎖定某些使用者。
For instance, Donald J. Trump’s presidential campaign has paid for its ads to be shown to those who Facebook has labeled politically moderate.
比如，唐納德•J•特朗普***Donald J. Trump***的總統競選團隊花錢把廣告展示給被Facebook標記為溫和派的使用者。
Campaigns can also use the groupings to show different messages to different supporters. They may want to show an ad to their hard-core supporters, for example, that is unlike an ad targeted at people just tuning in to the election.
競選團隊還可以利用這些分組，把不同的資訊展示給不同的支持者。比如，他們想給鐵桿支持者展示的廣告可能不同於給剛開始關心大選的人的廣告。
It is not clear how aggressively Facebook is gathering political information on users outside the United States. The social network has 1.7 billion active users, including about 204 million in the United States.
尚不清楚Facebook在收集美國之外使用者的政治資訊方面的積極程度。這個社交網路共有17億活躍使用者，其中美國使用者約為2.04億。
Political outlook is just one of the attributes Facebook compiles on its users. Many of the others are directly commercial: whether you like television comedy shows, video games or Nascar.
政治觀點只是Facebook新增的一項使用者資訊。其他很多資訊都直接跟商業有關：你是否喜歡電視喜劇節目、電子遊戲或全國汽車比賽協會***Nascar***的賽事。
To learn more about how political campaigns are targeting voters on social media, The New York Times is collecting Facebook ads from our readers with a project called AdTrack. You can take part by visiting nytimes and searching for “Send us the political ads.”
為了更多地瞭解政治競選團隊如何在社交媒體上鎖定選民，《紐約時報》正在從讀者中收集Facebook的廣告，這個專案名叫AdTrack。你可以通過訪問nytimes，搜尋“給我們發政治廣告”***Send us the political ads***進行參與。

蘋果釋出最新防監控系統補丁
One of the world’s most evasive digital arms dealers is believed to have been takingadvantage of three security vulnerabilities in popular Apple products in its efforts to spy ondissidents and journalists.
據信，一家屬於全球滲透性最強之列的數字武器交易商，一直在利用熱銷的蘋果***Apple***產品中的三個安全漏洞，來監視異見人士和新聞工作者。
Investigators discovered that a company called the NSO Group, an Israeli outfit that sellssoftware that invisibly tracks a target’s mobile phone, was responsible for the intrusions.
調查人員發現，這個名為NSO集團***NSO Group***的以色列公司對多起入侵事件負有責任。
The NSO Group’s software can read text messages and emails and track calls and contacts. Itcan even record sounds, collect passwords and trace the whereabouts of the phone user.
該公司銷售的軟體能夠在無形中追蹤目標的行動電話、讀取簡訊和電子郵件、追蹤通話和聯絡人資訊，甚至還能記錄聲音、收集密碼並追蹤手機使用者的下落。
In response, Apple on Thursday released a patched version of its mobile software, iOS 9.3.5.Users can get the patch through a normal software update.
作為迴應，蘋果週四釋出了經過修復的移動軟體版本iOS 9.3.5。使用者可通過正常的軟體升級獲取補丁。
Apple fixed the holes 10 days after a tip from two researchers, Bill Marczak and John ScottRailton, at Citizen Lab at the University of Toronto’s Munk School of Global Affairs, andLookout, a San Francisco mobile security company.
在收到來自多倫多大學***University of Toronto***蒙克全球事務學院***Munk School of Global Affairs***“公民實驗室”***Citizen Lab***的研?a href='//' target='_blank'>咳嗽北榷?bull;馬爾切克***Bill Marczak***和約翰•斯科特•雷爾頓***John Scott Railton***，以及舊金山移動安全公司Lookout的提醒十天後，蘋果修復了相關漏洞。
“We advise all of our customers to always download the latest version of iOS to protectthemselves against potential security exploits,” said Fred Sainz, a company spokesman.
“我們建議全體顧客堅持下載最新版本的iOS，以保護自己遠離潛在的安全漏洞，”蘋果公司的發言人弗雷德•賽恩斯***Fred Sainz***說。
In interviews and manuals, the NSO Group’s executives have long boasted that their spywareworked like a “ghost,” tracking the moves and keystrokes of its targets, without leaving atrace. But until this month, it was not clear how exactly the group was monitoring its targets,or who exactly it was monitoring.
在採訪和產品使用手冊中，NSO集團的高管長期誇耀道，他們的間諜軟體工作時就像“幽靈”一樣，在追蹤目標的動作和按鍵時，不會留下一絲痕跡。但在本月之前，外界並不知道該集團究竟是如何監視目標的，也不知道它到底在監視誰。
A clearer picture began to emerge on Aug. 10, when Ahmed Mansoor, a prominent humanrights activist in the United Arab Emirates, who has been tracked by surveillance softwareseveral times, began receiving suspicious text messages. The messages purported to containinformation about the torture of U.A.E. citizens.
8月10日，當多次被監視軟體跟蹤的阿拉伯聯合大公國著名人權活動人士艾哈邁德•曼蘇爾***Ahmed Mansoor***開始收到可疑簡訊時，更清晰的畫面開始浮現。那些簡訊宣稱包含有關阿聯酋公民被刑訊逼供的資訊。
Mr. Mansoor passed the messages to researchers at the Citizen Lab, who confirmed they werean attempt to track him through his iPhone.
曼蘇爾把簡訊轉給了“公民實驗室”的研究人員。後者證實，有人企圖通過他的手機跟蹤他。
This latest effort was far more sophisticated than what was found aimed at his devices before.The researchers found it was connecting to 200 servers, several of them registered to the NSOGroup. Strewn throughout the spyware code were references to Pegasus, the name of an NSOGroup spyware product.
最新這次行動，遠比以前發現的針對曼蘇爾的裝置所採取的行動更復雜。研究人員發現，它和200臺伺服器相連，其中幾臺登記在NSO集團的名下。間諜軟體程式碼中多次提到Pegasus，這是NSO集團一款監視軟體產品的名字。
Citizen Lab brought in Lookout to help examine the code. Together, they discovered that thespyware relied on three previously unknown iOS vulnerabilities — called “zero days” becauseApple didn’t know about them and had zero days to patch them.
“公民實驗室”請Lookout來協助研究這些程式碼。他們在合作中發現，這款間諜軟體依賴之前不為人知的三個iOS安全漏洞。它們被叫做“零日”***zero days***，因為蘋果不知道它們，沒花哪怕一天時間去修復它們。
