What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Brian Krebs ? These terrifying tales sent me looking for a book I had been meaning to read for quite some time. My former Washington Post colleague  Brian Krebs  left the newspaper in 2009 to dedicate  himself  to a blog on cybersecurity: KrebsOnSecurity.com. Out of  his  work and research came âSpam Nation: The Inside Story of Organized Cybercrime â From Global Epidemic to Your Front Door.â
But  Krebs  has made a background believer out of me.
âThe Internet of today is truly a transformative communications and learning tool that radically enriches the lives of billions each day â  Krebs  writes. âYet  never before in the history of the Internet has this medium been more fraught with snares and neâer-do-wells looking to fleece the unwary.
With our spam filters and the constant drilling to not open suspicious emails  weâve been lulled into a false sense of security   Krebs  says.
âThe spam ecosystem is a constantly evolving technological and sociological crime machine that feeds on itself â writes  Krebs . âThus far  the criminals responsible for unleashing this daily glut of digital disease are doing a stupendous job of overwhelming the security industry.â
 Krebs  spends a lot of time introducing the major and minor spam players. Itâs like a Jason Bourne movie but with criminals who donât shoot at folks (well  some do). They instead fire out malicious spam infecting tens of millions of computers and  as a result  rake in millions of dollars.
Waiting for you at the end of the book is a very resourceful chapter on how to protect yourself. Youâll be safer following  Krebs âs three rules for online security:
Even if you donât buy âSpam Nation â make  Krebs âs blog regular reading.  His  reporting will frighten you. It does me. As  he  writes  âthose who endeavor to remain blissfully unaware of their role in becoming part of the solution will almost invariably end up becoming part of the problem.â
Iâm hosting an online discussion about âSpam Nationâ at noon Eastern time on Nov. 2 at washingtonpost.com/discussions.  Krebs  will join me to answer your cybersecurity questions.

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Ablynx ? PARIS/LONDON (Reuters) - French drugmaker Sanofi has agreed to buy  Belgian biotech company Ablynx  for 3.9 billion euros ($4.8 billion)  beating Novo Nordisk and marking its second big deal this month after buying Bioverativ.
The deal is a further sign of accelerating merger and acquisition (M&A) activity in the global biotech sector and comes after  Ablynx  rejected a 2.6 billion euro offer from Denmark’s Novo Nordisk.
Sanofi said on Monday it would pay 45 euros per share in cash for Ablynx  a premium of 21 percent over its closing price on Friday - and more than double the price before Novo went public with its initial bid.
Novo Nordisk conceded defeat  saying it did not intend to make a revised offer for Ablynx  which is developing a prized experimental drug for a rare blood disorder.
Sanofi said  Ablynx  would boost long-term value for  its  shareholders  while the takeover was expected to have a neutral impact on Sanofi’s business earnings per share (EPS) in 2018 and 2019.
Sanofi is already one of  Ablynx ’s big pharma partners  after striking a deal in July 2017 to find new treatments for inflammatory diseases.
By buying the company outright it will now get access to  Ablynx ’s most promising asset  the experimental drug caplacizumab for treating the rare bleeding disorder acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.
Sanofi will be able to use its existing infrastructure and the recently acquired platform from Bioverativ to help to commercialize caplacizumab. It will also benefit from some of the other drugs  Ablynx  is working on  such as an infant anti-viral treatment  that would not have fitted within Novo Nordisk.
Berenberg analysts said  Ablynx  was a good fit but they estimated the deal would generate no more than a 4 percent return on invested capital  assuming caplacizumab sales of around 400 million euros by 2023.
The Danish group has sat out previous rounds of M&A in the drugs sector to focus on its core diabetes business but it now needs to find new products for its struggling smaller biopharmaceutical unit  where Ablynx would have been a good fit.
Morgan Stanley and Lazard advised Sanofi on the deal while JP Morgan advised Ablynx.

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Mamadou Tandja ? Over a span of several months  71-year-old President Mamadou Tandja has imposed rule by decree  cracked down on opponents and the press  and dismantled parliament and the constitutional court  which oppose his plan and together represented the last real checks on his rule.
 On Tuesday  a controversial referendum could remove the last obstacle in Tandja's way -- the constitution -- replacing it with a new one that does away with term-limits and simultaneously gives him greatly boosted powers and an unprecedented three-year extension of his rule.
 "He took the oath of office swearing on the Quran to protect our nation's democratic institutions " opposition leader Mahamadou Issoufou said. "But instead  he is destroying them."
 Opponents say Tandja is clinging to power so his family  clan and entourage can benefit from an influx of wealth from large-scale projects that are under way. Tandja denies it and says he is only obeying the will of his people  who he feels want him to finish projects to develop one of the poorest nations in the world.
 "The people see the future and they are asking their president to continue to serve  so he completes this work " Tandja told The Associated Press in an interview Friday at his residence  a complex of low-rise sand-brown buildings surrounded by palm trees. "But the constitution does not permit me to stay ... that's why the people demand a new one. We need to find a way."
 "It's an existential problem for many African heads of state " said Mahamane Ousmane  who led parliament until Tandja dissolved it in May because lawmakers opposed the referendum. "They can't imagine a normal life outside the palace. They say  'Will I be in exile? Will I be in prison? What will I do?'"
 Ousmane defeated Tandja in a 1993 poll and served as president until he was toppled in a 1996 coup. Today he lives in a modest home on a dirt road in the sleepy capital.
 Tandja  however  told The AP he was "afraid of nothing."
 Any influence foreign donors may have has been undermined by several huge new projects that have buoyed Tandja and are unlikely to grind to a halt. Among them: a US$5 billion (euro3.5 billion) deal with China to build an oil refinery and extract new crude from the desert  a US$1.7 billion (euro1.2 billion) accord with French nuclear giant Areva to build the world's second biggest uranium mine and a hydroelectric dam financed with US$50 million (euro35 million) from the Islamic Development Bank.
 Tandja claims his actions are legal  but opponents say he could only rule by decree if Niger was under threat and parliament was in place to safeguard against abuse. Tandja dissolved the constitutional court -- the only body that could judge such disputes -- after it ruled the referendum illegal. He then replaced it with another court whose members he appointed.
 The proposed new constitution would give him authority to name one third of a new 60-seat senate and the power to jail journalists who are deemed security threats without warning.
 A roadside florist  Hama Alhassane  hasn't seen the draft constitution and doesn't know how it differs from the current one. But "whatever Tandja wants  I will do " the 23-year-old said. "Because he is the state and we must do what the state demands."
 State media only carry pro-referendum messages. A private TV station that broadcast a statement critical of Tandja was temporarily shut down.
 Tandja vowed to respect the outcome  telling The AP: "If they say no  I will go."
