Overflowing tank cause of new leak at Fukushima
Another day, another radioactive-water spill. The operator of the meltdown-plagued Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant says at least 430 liters (110 gallons) spilled when workers overfilled a storage tank that lacked a gauge that could have warned them of the danger.The amount is tiny compared to the untold thousands of tons of radioactive water that have leaked, much of it into the Pacific Ocean, since a massive earthquake and tsunami wrecked the plant in 2011. But the error is one of many the ope

박근혜 백설공주 풍자 포스터 작가 참여재판서 무죄
박근혜 당시 후보를 백설공주 에 빗댄 풍자포스터 등 여야 대선후보 포스터를 지난해 대선 전에 거리에 붙인 혐의로 기소된 팝아트 작가 이모(45)씨가 국민참여재판에서 무죄 선고를 받았다. 서울중앙지법 형사합의21부(이범균 부장판사)는 국민참여재판에서 배심원 9명 중 8명이 박 후보를 그린 풍자 포스터를 무죄로 보고 1일 공직선거법위반 혐의로 기소된 이씨에 대해 무죄를 선고했다. 또 문 후보와 안 후보를 그린 포스터는 5명이 무죄라고 판단했다.재판부는 “이씨가 그린 포스터 어디에도 특정 후보를 비방하거나 지지하는 명시 적 표현이 담겨 있지 않다”며 이를 공직선거법 위반으로 보기는 어렵다고 판단했다.이어 “박 후보를 그린 포스터가 오히려 호감을 표시하는 것으로 해석될 여지도 있을 만큼 해당 포스터는 중의적 해석이 가능한 예술적 창작물로 보이고, 이씨가 예 전부터 정치인에 대한 풍자 삽화를 그려온 점 등을 고려할 때 선거에 영향을 미칠 의도도 없었다고 보인다”고 설명했다. 이씨는 지난해 6

Korean designer develops ‘surveillance-proof‘ font: report
Mun Sang-hyun, a South Korean graphic designer, has allegedly developed a typeface called ”ZXX“ that aims to block the probing eye of the U.S. government, CNN reported. After releasing the font (www.z-x-x.org), Mun said the font, though eligible for human eyes, could confuse “optical character recognition” or OCR scanners. But the purpose of the typeface is not perfect protection from such surveillance but an alert of the danger of digital data collection, Mun said. Mun worked with the U.S. Nat

“한국디자이너 인터넷감시 방지 폰트 개발”
한국 디자이너가 미국 정부의 인터넷 감시를 따돌릴 수 있다는 알파벳 글자체(폰트)를 선보여 미국에서 화제가 되고 있다. 미국 국가안보국(NSA)의 민간인 디지털 감시체제가 드러나면서 이에 대한 항의 차원에서 폰트를 만들었다는 것이다. 미국 CNN은 지난달 30일(현지시간) 그래픽 디자이너 문상현(26)씨가 기계가 자동 인식할 수 없는 폰트인 ‘ZXX’를 만들어 인터넷에 무상 배포하고 있다고 보도했다. 문씨는 작년 미국의 예술•디자인 대학인 로드아일랜드 스쿨 오브 디자인(RISD)을 졸업하면서 학위 작품으로 이 폰트를 개발했다. ZXX 폰트는 모두 4종으로 기존 알파벳에 위장색 무늬나 작은 점 등을 뿌려 놓은 것이 특징이다. 사람은 이런 폰트를 무리 없이 읽을 수 있지만 첩보 당국이 웹문서 분석 때 쓰는 문자인식기는 글 내용을 파악할 수 없어 무차별 정보수집을 막는다는 것이다. 그러나 보안 전문가들은 ZXX 폰트가 고급 암호체계처럼 효과적인 사생활 보호
