“Our findings support the need for national and international scrutiny of the country Blue Coat implementations we have identified, and a closer look at the global proliferation of dual-use information and communications technology,” the group noted. “We hope Blue Coat will take this as an opportunity to explain their due diligence process to ensure that their devices are not used in ways that violate human rights.”
“我們的發現證明，美國和國際社會有必要審查我們發現的採用步立康系統的國家，還有必要更密切地關注軍民兩用類的信息和通訊技術的全球擴散，”該機構稱。“我們希望，步立康抓住這次機會，解釋公司的盡職調查過程，從而保證他們的設備不被用於違反人權的領域。”
The researchers also noted that the equipment does not directly fall under the dual-use distinction employed by the United States government to control the sale of equipment that has both military and civilian applications, but it can be used for both political and intelligence applications by authoritarian governments.
研究人員也注意到，這種設備並不完全符合美國政府的“兩用”定義，但它可以被威權政府用於政治和情報目的。美國政府施行“兩用”分類來控制既可以軍用、又可以民用的設備的銷售。
“公民實驗室”高級研究員薩拉·麥丘恩(Sarah McKune)說，“敘利亞適用於美國的出口制裁措施。但是，涉及到不適用於美國制裁措施的那些國家，情況就更艱難，這些設備還是會在那些地方對人權產生嚴重影響。”
F.D.A. Warns of Further Risk From Tainted Drugs
By DENISE GRADY and SABRINA TAVERNISE
The drug agency
said Monday that products from a Massachusetts company linked to a
meningitis outbreak may have also caused other types of infections.
Any delay in the clean-up poses problems, as radioactive particles may seep into groundwater and contaminate crops. In a few places where the work has begun, such as Minami-Soma, people are given no guidance on handling hot material. Contaminated water drains into sewers and tainted soil sits piled under tarpaulins. Detection has been spotty. Cattle were tested, but their feed and meat were not. Even when human health is not at risk, mismanaging the clean-up does social and economic damage.
More than 10,000 people remain in shelters, five months after the tsunami that triggered the nuclear crisis. While the government dithers, Ms Tanaka and the amateur Geiger geeks at Safecast.org go where its radiation monitors do not.
The Big Dither
By PAUL KRUGMAN
When it comes to dealing with banks, the Obama administration is dithering. And the result could be an economy that sputters along for a very long time.

The world's banks may be heavily exposed to a Greek default
He couldn’t hold out any longer. On Friday April 23rd the Greek prime minister, George Papandreou, finally went cap-in-hand to his euro-area partners to ask for the €30 billion ($40 billion) promised to him to keep his country afloat. But Germany’s dithering on authorising the loan led to Standard & Poor's, a rating agency, to downgrade Greece’s debt to “junk” status. Portugal and Spain also suffered downgrades. As the likelihood of a Greek default grow stronger, banks are scared about their exposure to its debt. Estimates by The Economist put the total euro-area exposure of foreign banks to Greek sovereign debt at €76 billion, with over 71% held by France and Germany. Estimates for Portugal, which may also be vulnerable to a default, are €32 billion. Little wonder that investors are taking flight.
