The telecom policeman called French operators to “breaking the bank” – The World

Le Monde | • Updated | Interview

Sébastien Soriano, in the premises of the  ARCEP, in Paris, Wednesday, June 29

What is the state of the sector

the telecom market is? passed through an air hole. But we came out: the profitability of most operators is reasonable and turnover today stabilizes. This is the time to revive investment. Especially since our equipment is not satisfactory. France is ranked poorly at European level: it is the 24 th place in the 4G and the 29 th in the very high speed. There is no reason for us to be late

How do you convince operators to invest more?

to that investments are sustainable, they must allow operators to generate profitability. We are launching a battery of measures to support them. Specifically, we are working on the provision, by the end of the year, mobile coverage maps of the territory in open data. This will allow consumers to compare offers based on network quality and performance, and to see in detail whether inside or outside a building is covered by 4G. What we want back is that traders break the bank. These are often reluctant to invest because it represents large amounts.

However, operators have announced massive investments. Do they not have enough?

Pay attention to the announced figures. They are often complex to read because they mix real investment and more questionable things. For example, renting a network to another operator is sometimes accounted for as an investment or the installation of a new subscriber in a box …

waiting for -you practice them?

in mobile, we would like the operators install 10 000 branches in the next three years, bringing the total number to 75 000. it would save three years on the current schedule of 4G and move from a 25% coverage of the territory and 90%. In the fiber, which already covers 6 million homes, we believe it is possible to cover 7 to 8 million more over the next three years.

In fiber, Orange took the lead. What do you think?

With 75% market share, Orange goes fast. There is a locomotive and we do not want the curb. However, we do not want a monopoly. It must be real competition. Today, there are only 60% of households having access to fiber where there is more than one operator. We want to increase this to over 80% in three years

Read also:. Orange and Free are racing ahead in winning new subscribers

Free, SFR and Bouygues Telecom are calling for a regulatory review of the fiber. What do you say?

In very dense areas, Orange is alone, too alone. Some operators complain of having difficulty accessing the foot of the buildings, and then not be able to connect the apartments. We will launch a consultation to see if the brakes. If we see the end of the year there is a concern, we will look to complete our regulatory arsenal. In moderately dense areas where co-invest alongside operators Orange [leader of the deployment in most areas] , the principles do not need to be revised, even though some sliders , such as the resale price of the fiber, can move. If I have empathy for SFR, which calls for a new division of territory with Orange, I think it also depends on existing contracts.

Operators challenge your draft increase the price of ADSL to accelerate the switch to fiber …

We are considering increasing the price of copper network Orange rents to its competitors, but only where there is already fiber . It is currently only one option. We realize that this would cause significant financial movements for operators. But we want to ensure that the generation of entrepreneurs who took advantage of the opening to competition of telecom will not sleep on its laurels. We need reassurance.

Free, which used the 3G network of Orange while waiting for his, has pledged to end his contract roaming the end of 2020. is it too long?

There were two contracts, the first signed between Free and Orange in 3G, the second between Bouygues Telecom and SFR in 4G. There was a temporary situation. The extinguishing plans we have presented operators are consistent with our objectives. The subject is set

Read also:. Orange and Free will network to share the end of 2020

SFR setting the convergence between media and telecoms to regain subscribers. What do you think?

In my view, this convergence is primarily that of billionaires in part motivated by the need for a stronger public sitting to represent their interests in telecoms. That is why we need a separate regulator. However, if the convergence translates into exclusives, where the user selects a network because it is the only way to watch a football game, it’s dangerous. I am not alarmed by the current situation but I do not want it to become a dominant model. This would create a profound questioning of the industry

Facebook does geolocates users to recommend their friends? – The world

Le Monde | • Updated | By

The exact operation of the recommendation  system of new Facebook friends is not known.

Facebook he uses, or not, geolocation to suggest new friends to its users? Confusion reigned for a few days around this thorny issue: after confirming this information, which triggered a number of negative responses, the company is finally retracted

what was said initially Facebook

it all started with the publication Monday, June 27, an article on the fusion site, which ensures that through “geolocation of smartphone users, the social network may suggest you make friends with someone who has had the same GPS position you” at the same time as you.

According to Fusion, a spokesman for Facebook confirmed that geographically was part of the various factors to suggest a new friend. He said that “only geolocation data are insufficient to indicate that two people could be friends.”

Why this poses he problem?

The publication of this article provoked many negative reactions. “This could explain why some friends asked me how unknown that hitting on them in bars appear in their friends for suggestions” says a journalist specialized Engadget on Twitter. She added that many journalists came to her in panic to see that Facebook recommended their sources as friends.

Because even combined with other factors, this system may represent “a disaster for privacy “, says Fusion. A meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous, for example, and may not remain anonymous for long if the names of people cross, which you only know the faces, appear on Facebook in the suggestions of friends.



the Facebook coaster

on Monday night, the spokesman of Facebook has contacted Fusion, “saying the company had dug the matter further and concluded that the geolocation was not used “ reports the site. Here is the statement that Facebook has made:

“We do not use location data, such as the location of your device, or location information that you add to your profile, to suggest people you may know. “

The company provided the same explanation, in the same terms, the World . Facebook said in Fusion that confusion came from a test performed briefly by the social network, which actually was to suggest friends based on geolocation data. This test lasted only four weeks in 2015 and would have concerned a small part of its users.



What say Terms of use Facebook

the Facebook site briefly discusses the functionality “perhaps you know …” and explained that the social network suggests people “based on your mutual friends, your work or studies, networks you belong to, the contacts you have imported and other factors” , without elaborating on these other factors.

However, when active on their smartphone geolocation on Facebook, a message appears indicating that the social network is used to “help people orient themselves, find friends, and more yet “

This message is slightly different in the English version of the application. ” Facebook uses this to help people find places, connect with friends and more »

Screenshots of the Facebook application, in  French and English.

it’s hard to see clearly with these apparently contradictory information. That said, it is not impossible that formulation “find friends” match the functionality, little known, “close friends” .

If the user activates it allows its the friends who also activated to know where he is – whether by him or the other side of the world. This raises others regarding privacy.



What?

The best in doubt, is to check if geotagging is enabled on your Facebook application. Go to More & gt; Settings & gt; Account Settings & gt; Place, or directly in the privacy settings and location of your phone. You can then decide if you want to disable the location to Facebook and functionality “friends near”

Windows 10: Update Anniversary finally scheduled for August 2 [SHIFT] – ZDNet France

Article updated at 14h: Microsoft has confirmed that the launch of Redstone will speak well and truly on Tuesday 2 August. Redmond also states that this update will be dedicated to 350 million today equipped machines. The publisher and communicates on a new figure was 300 million in May. The group aims 1 billion Windows devices by the end of next year.

Small blunder towards Microsoft? On Tuesday, some could see a curious blog post from Microsoft since it contained no text but a title that has reacted: “Microsoft announced the availability of the anniversary update Windows 10 to August 2″ .

Remember that this first major update of the OS, also known as the Redstone code name, is supposed to be thrust on July 29, one year after the official launch of Windows 10. This date appears in the slides of the publisher for the conference WinHEC (Windows Hardware Engineering conference).

the ticket has obviously been removed but for observers, date of August 2 has meaning because it falls on a Tuesday . But Redmond traditionally grows its updates, including its security patches, always a Tuesday

The update Anniversary Update will also be deployed at another major event. The end of free Windows 10. After July 29, Microsoft provides in principle to make this edition of Windows fee ($ 119 for the Home version and 199 for the Pro).

Remember that Redstone should highlight the Continuum function. With this feature inspired by Continuity present in the latest Apple OS X, Microsoft’s ambition is to offer an operating system that suits all terminals.

“With Continuum phones, we believe that any phone can be your PC” explains Joe Belfiore Microsoft. How? Because this feature allows Windows 10 to detect the type of device used and help the OS to configure itself to provide the most suitable interface. The idea is thus to start a task on a screen and continue on another, transparently to the user.

Redstone also introduce the Ubuntu shell commands, allow the extensions support for Edge, will offer a redesigned Start menu, the universal application Skype, Windows Ink for pens and an assistant Cortana more powerful. The Enterprise version should land more security options with Windows 10 Defender Advanced Protection.

Windows Mobile side 10, Redstone should provide support for biometrics fingerprint. For this, use Windows 10 Mobile drivers and existing code already available for Windows PC Hello. This version supports Windows 10 in fact already the fingerprint readers. This new mobile OS on there means the arrival of smartphones such readers

The builders have really two options: integration directly in the terminal, or support this biometric authentication mode via an external device.

As for the update Redstone 2, it would ultimately be programmed to 2017, according to sources interviewed by ZDNet.com.

Google: between lyrics and speed test directly in research – Begeek.fr

The search engine Google a growing tendency over the years to directly display its own results via cards before returning websites contractors searched subject. Weather, film, definition, scholarship or future health (Google’s search engine takes to Doctissimo) … examples abound and it is now the lyrics that are going to land.



A “new” string to the bow of Google

Thanks to a partnership with LyricFind service whose license covers 4,000 pieces of publishers in 100 countries, Google will soon be able to view the lyrics of songs directly in the results of its search engine, but also in its Google Play Music application. A feature that should increasingly drive up the traffic and reduce the specialized sites.

That said, readers with the best memory may remember is that from December 2014 Google already offers partial display words in his engine. A still unavailable functionality at home and it is hoped that this partnership will allow global deployment this time.



Soon a tool to test the connection?

In addition, according to different users, screen capture support, Google is now testing another feature to its search engine, a tool to test the speed of the Internet connection. If he were to be put online, it would be a faster alternative to use the classic speedtest.net or newer Fast.com Netflix.

Update Windows 10 – Microsoft will allow you to say no more easily. Promise? – ZDNet France

Microsoft he confesses his mistake? In early May, the publisher changed its Windows notification message 10. What this popup? It is encouraging to migrate displayed with Windows 7 users and 8.1.

This notification is far from clear. First click on the close box of the window is consent. Furthermore, the option to refuse the upgrade could be considered too inconspicuous.

Finally, Microsoft will fix its notification Windows 10. The new format will be broadcast from from this week. But above all, the representatives of the publisher ensures that the message is now more readable and planning or canceling the simplest update

And proof that the firm has given the critics this time, closing cross of pop-up will no longer trigger development planning up to date.

“Our most important priority for Windows 10 is that everyone likes Windows” officially commented the head of the Windows division, Terry Myerson. A recognition that the methods used so far have proven to be against-productive?

The leader is in any case state of confusion for some customers. The new version of the notification will present “clear options to mount version now, plan or decline the free offer.”

Note that Microsoft will also provide free support for users face difficulties during the update, including support to switch back to the original version of Windows.

of course, Microsoft does not change course and continues to recommend migrating Windows 10, presented “as the most secure version of Windows”, and preferably before the end of free (after July 29).
