(United States Fourth Circuit) - Vacated the lower court's denial of habeas relief in a death penalty case where the defendant alleged juror bias. The defendant, who was convicted in Virginia state court of murdering a law enforcement officer, claimed that a juror had failed to disclose that his brother was a law enforcement officer. Agreeing that there was a potential issue of bias, the Fourth Circuit concluded that Supreme Court precedent required a hearing in these circumstances, and therefore vacated in relevant part and remanded with instructions for the trial court to hold an evidentiary hearing on the juror bias question.

Необычные социальные условия во время пандемии COVID-19 побуждают искать новые способы интеллектуального общения. И у нас есть хрестоматийный пример подобного поиска — это «Декамерон» Боккаччо. Как многие помнят, события «Декамерона» происходят во время чумы 1348 года. Чтобы ненадолго отвлечься от печальных мыслей, семь девушек и трое юношей уходят из Флоренции, охваченной эпидемией, собираются вместе в загородном имении и в течение десяти дней рассказывают друг другу истории…

As there have been countless cases of Zoombombing in the recent weeks, the security in the video conferencing platform Zoom has been doubted by its users. In response to this, Zoom finally announced on Thursday that they will be implementing and offering end-to-end encryption.

With the acquisition of Keybase, a New York-based startup specializing in encrypted messaging and cloud services, Zoom will finally be able to make good on its claims of offering end-to-end encryption.

“We are excited to integrate Keybase’s team into the Zoom family to help us build end-to-end encryption that can reach current Zoom scalability,” CEO Eric Yuan said in a Zoom blog post on Thursday.

Unfortunately, not all Zoom users will benefit from the company’s new move, as the end-to-end encryption feature will only be available to users who have paid plans (which start at $14.99/month, by the way) on the video conferencing platform.

If a meeting’s host has enabled this feature, participants will be barred from joining by phone and cloud-based recording will be disabled. In Thursday’s blog post, Yuan emphasized that the feature will not store the encryption key on Zoom’s servers, so the company will not be able to see any part of the call.

What are your thoughts about this one?
