[Q]: 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.

[Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Bill Cosby ? Bill Cosby   seen here at an August court appearance  is set for a retrial on sexual assault charges in April  after his first trial last spring ended in a hung jury. (Matt Rourke/AP)
The prosecutor in the  Bill Cosby  case asked a Pennsylvania judge to allow testimony from 19 alleged prior victims of the entertainer  whose retrial on sex assault charges is set to begin April 2.
The request is the first public indication of the shape and parameters of the prosecution case  and it represents a significant expansion of the government’s effort to portray  Cosby  as a serial predator. When  Cosby  was tried in June  prosecutors sought to include testimony from just 13 women who said they had been assaulted by the comic legend.
But it remains to be seen how this latest move by prosecutors will play out: Last year’s effort by prosecutors to introduce so-called “prior bad acts” testimony was largely unsuccessful  as the judge allowed only one of the 13 to appear at  Cosby ’s trial  which ended with a hung jury.
[What’s next for the Bill Cosby sex-assault case?]
In their request Thursday  prosecutors said that  Cosby  “has spent a lifetime entertaining audiences in front of the camera. Off camera  he has followed and  indeed mastered  a more nefarious script — a victimizing sexual script. . . . To satiate his desire  he has engaged  over the course of a lifetime  in a pattern of serial sexual abuse.”

 Cosby  faces felony charges for allegedly drugging and sexually assaulting Andrea Constand  a former Temple University employee  at  his  suburban Philadelphia estate in 2004.  Cosby   now 80  has denied sexually assaulting women.

[Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Michael E. Mann ? Mann said he was gratified by the findings  the second report from Penn State to clear him. An earlier report had exonerated him of related charges that he suppressed or falsified data  destroyed e-mail and misused confidential information.
 The new report did criticize him on a minor point  saying that he had occasionally forwarded to colleagues copies of unpublished manuscripts without the explicit permission of their authors.
 The allegations arose after private e-mail messages between Mann and other scientists were purloined from a computer at the University of East Anglia  in Britain  and posted on the Internet. In one  a British researcher called a data-adjustment procedure Mann used a "trick."
 The e-mail messages led climate-change skeptics to accuse mainstream researchers  including Mann  of deliberately manipulating the findings of climate science in order to strengthen their case that human activity is causing the earth to warm up.
 "I'm aware  and many researchers now are keenly aware  of the depths to which the climate-change disinformation movement is willing to sink  to the point where they're willing to criminally break into a university server and steal people's personal e-mail messages " Mann said in an interview.
 "It's no surprise that it's a whitewash of Mann's misconduct  because it was designed to be a whitewash " said Myron Ebell  director of energy and global warming policy at the Competitive Enterprise Institute  a Washington advocacy group. He accused the panel of failing to interview important witnesses.
 The panel did not try to vet the accuracy of the science published by Mann  including a famous finding that the temperature of the earth had jumped recently  compared with past climate inferred from indicators like tree rings. Instead  it examined his methodology -- his analytical techniques  his willingness to share data with those skeptical of his findings and the like. The panel unanimously found his approach "well within the range of accepted practices."
 Mann remains under investigation by the attorney general of Virginia for research he did at the University of Virginia.
