Bappi Lahiri sends legal notice to makers of ‘Toonpur ka Super Hero’

Posted: 19 Dec 2010 11:45 PM PST

Bollywood music composer Bappi Lahiri sent a legal notice to the producers of 'Toonpur Ka Super Hero'. The Singer and composer sent the notice on 17 December for spoofing him in the animated film.

A source said, "Bappi stated in the notice that he checked the website (of the film) after his daughter's friend informed him of a character 'Guppy' based on him in the film. He took the step to send a legal notice on realising that the character of 'Guppy' mimics him completely."

In the film 'Guppy' is a singer who is fond of singing, but unfortunately his singing often troubles the group. The 'Devtoons' in the movie do not like his singing and are fed up of him.

Bappi is adamant and has demanded to change the character. The makers of the Ajay Devgan and Kajol starrer film, have called for an emergency meeting to talk about the issue. Sources have said that, the producers have great respect for Bappida and will have a talk with him about the matter.

In the encounter with police, many activists including Naidu's son Lokesh and MLC YVB Rajendra Prasad were also injured. Naidu had been booked under section 309 of Indian Penal Code, which accuses him of 'attempt to commit suicide'. While the other party leaders, have been booked under section 353 of IPC (preventing a public servant from discharging his duties).

Microsoft to limit search data retention to 6 months

Posted: 19 Dec 2010 07:59 PM PST

As part of an evaluation of Microsoft's Internet search privacy practices, Microsoft announced an important change in their data retention policy.Microsoft will delete the entire IPs associated with search queries at six months rather than at eighteen months. This change will be incorporated into the existing privacy practices, which already provide strong protections for Bing users.

This change is the result of a number of factors including a continuing evaluation of our business needs, the current competitive landscape and our ongoing dialogue with privacy advocates, consumer groups, and regulators – including the Article 29 Working Party, the group of 27 European national data protection regulators charged with providing advice to the European Commission and other EU institutions on data protection.

Under our current policy, as soon as Microsoft receives a Bing search query, steps are taken to de-identify the data by separating it from account information that could identify the person who performed the search. Then, at 18 months, we take the additional step of deleting the IP address, the de-identified cookie ID and any other cross-session IDs associated with the query.

The core components of this policy will not change. Our new policy will change the date at which we delete the IP address associated with search queries to six months. We will implement the new policy over the next 12 to 18 months.

There are many good reasons to retain and review search data. Studying trends in search queries enables us to improve the quality of our results, protect against fraud and maintain a secure and viable business. But consumer privacy can and must be preserved. For our part, Microsoft continues to examine our practices to ensure we strike the right balance and achieving both goals.
