FBI Has Been Working with Best Buy’s Geek Squad to Crack Down on Child Porn Found on People's Computers-blogged by @thereal__bee ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ According to reports, the FBI has been working with Best Buy’s Geek Squad computer repairmen for almost a decade. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ The FBI reportedly paid the employees to flag and disclose illegal content that they found on people’s computers, specifically in reference to child pornography. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ According to the Electronic Frontier Foundation’s account, if a Geek Squad employee finds potentially illegal content on a computer during inspection, they are to contact the FBI and notify them. The agents then review the content, if it is illegal, they then seize the device. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ In at least one incident, the FBI reportedly paid a Geek Squad employee $500 for reporting illegal content. They then proceeded to use him as an informant. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ After the prosecution of a California doctor for child abuse imagery found on his computer, the EFF filed a Freedom of Information request to get more knowledge about the extent of the relationship between Geel Squad employers and the FBI. According to reports, the results show that it “circumvents computer owners’ Fourth Amendment rights.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Best Buy insists that they have a moral, and sometimes, legal, obligation to “report these findings to law enforcement,” as they are helping “discover and thwart illegal, abusive behavior,” reports Buzzfeed. However, the retailer assures consumers that they do not actively seek out illegal material and that employees have not received training from law enforcement to “learn how to find it,” reports Fortune.com

    Billboard, Christmas, and Definitely: Jhene Aiko Opens the WAYS
 Foundation In Remembrance of
 Her Late Brother

Jhene Aiko Opens the WAYS Foundation In Remembrance of Her Late Brother - blogged by: @ashleytearra ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There are plenty of things to smile about, and singer-songwriter Jhene Aiko is definitely sure to spark a few smiles with her latest endeavor, the 'WAYS Foundation'. The 29-year-old launched the charity over Christmas weekend, in honor of her late brother, Miyagi, who passed away, after battling cancer, back in 2012. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Through the newly-established organization, Aiko has set out to assist cancer patients and the families of those in need, providing not only financial but emotional comfort and support, as well. She made her first generous donation to Lily Olive Cosby, a five-year-old girl from Eagle Rock, California, who was recently diagnosed with leukemia. Aiko visited Cosby's home with a $15,000 check in hand to cover the little one's medical bills. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When speaking with Billboard, Aiko says, "This Christmas, I decided to gift my family with the 'WAYS Foundation,' something my family and I have had in the works since the passing of my brother," She expresses. "I decided to make a donation on my family's behalf, in which we plan to continue to help people and families affected by cancer." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ According to Billboard, the name of the foundation gains its significance from the phrase "Why aren't you smiling?"-which is something that her brother once tweeted during his battle with the disease.
