Improvements to our Privacy Policy and Privacy Controls

stalingamnaxalite@gmail.com This month, we're updating our Privacy Policy to make it easier for you to understand what information we collect and why we collect it. We've also taken steps to improve our Privacy Checkup and other controls we provide to safeguard your data and protect your privacy. Nothing is changing about your current settings or how your information is processed. Rather, we've improved the way we describe our practices and how we explain the options you have to update, manage, export, and delete your data. We're making these updates as new data protection regulations come into effect in the European Union, and we're taking the opportunity to make improvements for Google users around the world. Making our Privacy Policy easier to understand Simpler structure & clearer language We've improved the navigation and organization of the policy to make it easier to find what you're looking for. We've also explained our practices in more detail and with clearer language. New descriptive videos & illustrations Often a visual description is easier to understand than text alone, so we've added short videos and illustrations throughout the policy. Embedded privacy controls We've made it easier to jump to key settings directly from the policy, helping you make choices about your privacy. The revised policy is available here and will take effect on May 25, 2018. Improving your privacy controls Within the past year, we updated My Activity so that you can better access and manage the data in your Google Account. We also launched a redesigned Dashboard, which allows you to easily see an overview of products you're using and your data associated with them. This month, we've updated our Privacy Checkup with new illustrations and examples to help you make more informed choices about your key privacy controls. And since we understand that your preferences may change over time, the new Privacy Checkup enables you to sign up for regular reminders to check your privacy settings. To learn more about these and other controls to manage your privacy, visit your Google Account. © 2018 Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 This email was sent to stalingamnaxalite@gmail.com to provide an update about your Google Account.

[Naxal Revolution] Coming Soon - A Report On The Americas

A statue of Ernesto Che Guevara Statue at El Alto in La Paz, Bolivia.

 Dear Readers

I was fortunate enough to spend a substantial part of last year in the America's. I managed to visit half a dozen countries present at strategic locations in North, Central and South America.

Despite numerous efforts by state and non-state actors to sabotage my journey, I was able to successfully complete my study tour. I hope to organize my findings and present it in the form of a report in the coming months.

Its been 12 long years since I founded this blog, I hope to also introspect on the years gone by in the coming weeks. Do stay tuned for more updates.

Regards

Abhay N

[Naxalite Maoist India] Paradoxes of War - Coursera

An introduction into the historical, psychological, and sociological analysis of organized conflict.

Enroll Today at : 

https://www.coursera.org/course/warparadoxes

Starts on June 1st , 2014 

About the Course

The Paradox of War teaches us to understand that war is not only a normal part of human existence, but is arguably one of the most important factors in making us who we are. Through this course, I hope that you will come to appreciate that war is both a natural expression of common human emotions and interactions and a constitutive part of how we cohere as groups. 

That is, war is paradoxically an expression of our basest animal nature and the exemplar of our most vaunted and valued civilized virtues. You will learn some basic military history and sociology in this course as a lens for the more important purpose of seeing the broader social themes and issues related to war. 

I want you to both learn about war, but more importantly, use it as way of understanding your everyday social world So, for example, the discussion of war and gender will serve to start you thinking about how expectations of masculinity are created and our discussion of nationalism will make clear how easy “us-them” dichotomies can be established and (ab)used. 

I will suggest some readings for you to complement the class and assign some activities through which you will be able to apply the theoretical insights from the course to your observations of everyday life. 

At the end of the course, you will start to see war everywhere and come to appreciate how much it defines our life.

[Naxalite Maoist India] Red Salutes to the CPI(Maoist)

“ It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”  

- Theodore Roosevelt (26th US President (1901-09), 1858-1919)

[Naxalite Maoist India] Sylvia Plath : The fig tree

Came across this image recently. It does strike a chord. It's been 8 long years since I started this blog. I think it is time to do some introspection. I should have a few blog posts ready in the coming weeks on the journey so far and what lies ahead.
