• Help us Reset The Net today on June 5th

  5 juin 2014, par Piwik Core Team — Community, Meta

  This blog post explains why the Piwik project is joining ResetTheNet online protest and how you can help make a difference against mass surveillance. It also includes an infographic and links to useful resources which may be of interest to you.

  Snowden revelations, a year ago today

  On June 5, 2013 the Guardian newspaper published the first of Edward Snowden’s astounding revelations. It was the first of a continuous stream of stories that pointed out what we’ve suspected for a long time : that the world’s digital communications are being continuously spied upon by nation states with precious little oversight.

  Unfortunately, mass surveillance is affecting the internet heavily. The Internet is a powerful force that can promote democracy, innovation, and creativity, but it’s being subverted as a tool for government spying. That is why Piwik has decided to join Reset The Net.

  June 5, 2014 marks a new year : a year that will not just be about listening to the inside story of mass surveillance, but a new year of fighting back !

  How do I protect myself and others ?

  Reset the Net is asking everyone to help by installing free software tools that are designed to protect your privacy on a computer or a mobile device.

  Reset the Net is also calling on websites and developers to add surveillance resistant features such as HTTPS and forward secrecy.

  Message from Edward Snowden

  Evan from FFTF sent us this message from Edward Snowden and we thought we would share it with you :

  One year ago, we learned that the internet is under surveillance, and our activities are being monitored to create permanent records of our private lives — no matter how innocent or ordinary those lives might be.

  Today, we can begin the work of effectively shutting down the collection of our online communications, even if the US Congress fails to do the same. That’s why I’m asking you to join me on June 5th for Reset the Net, when people and companies all over the world will come together to implement the technological solutions that can put an end to the mass surveillance programs of any government. This is the beginning of a moment where we the people begin to protect our universal human rights with the laws of nature rather than the laws of nations.

  We have the technology, and adopting encryption is the first effective step that everyone can take to end mass surveillance. That’s why I am excited for Reset the Net — it will mark the moment when we turn political expression into practical action, and protect ourselves on a large scale.

  Join us on June 5th, and don’t ask for your privacy. Take it back.

• Is it advisable to use FFMpeg on my local server for video conversion ?

  7 juin 2019, par Yash Desai

  We are starting a video sharing website where users will be able to upload videos in their native formats. However, since video streaming on the web generally is in the FLV format, we need to convert the videos to FLV.

  Also, the site will be hosted on Amazon EC2 and storage using S3.

  Can i run FFMpeg on amazon EC2 ? Is this the best way to go ? Are there other alternatives to video encoding rather than doing conversion on our own server ? I also came across www.transloadit.com which seems to do the same but they are charging a bomb. Are there cheaper and more intelligent alternatives ?

  We are planning to make this website as one of top 10 biggest niche video streaming websites on the internet.
