Due to the popularity of my previous article on Help Desk Geek entitled 99 ways to make your computer blazingly fast, Ive decided to write another list post with 99 items, but this time on Windows freeware programs that you may have not heard of.

If you search for best freeware programs or top freeware apps, youll get lots of lists, but mostly with programs everyone has already heard of: AVG anti-virus, 7-zip, Firefox, OpenOffice, etc., etc.

Thats all nice and fine, but what about all those little gems programs that work great, but dont get all the headlines? In this article, I will try my best to mention as many small name freeware programs as I can that can help make you more productive! Its a long list, so feel free to bookmark it and refer to it later on.

These are written in no particular order! Again, Im sure there are hundreds of programs that I wont mention, so if you feel Ive really missed a great program, mention the name of the app and what it does in the comments!

Additionally, some of the programs I mention have free versions that have a few restrictions or are limited in some way. I tried not to mention any programs that are just free trials.

Note: Lastly, it should be noted that I have gone through the entire list and run every executable file through VirusTotal (as of Feb 2018) to ensure that the programs do not have malware or spyware.

1. Weve all heard of 7-zip, WinRAR, and WinZip, but what about other great zipping programs like ZIP Archiver orPeaZip?

2. Whats the best Notepad replacement out there? Notepad++ right? We all know that! Here are nine more free text editors for Windows.

3. If you use Windows, then you know and love the Windows registry! CCleaner may be the most popular system maintenance tool out there, but what aboutwell, actually thats the only one I recommend.

4. Ever accidentally delete a file that you really needed? You can try a program called Pandora Recovery to recover lost or deleted files or Recuva, a useful file recovery app. But thats not all! Ever heard of TestDisk?

5. Speaking of file recovery, ever accidentally delete all the pictures off your memory card!? It happens more often than you would think. In those cases, check out my list of 5 photo recovery apps.

12. Enough about passwords, lets talk media players! Weve all heard of VLC media player and Windows Media Player, but what about Kodi and Media Monkey? Both are great media players for Windows. Also, GOM Player is good too.

13. If you have to stare at your screen at night for a long time, its probably a good idea to use a program like f.lux to change the display color to something warmer.

14. If you take a lot of home videos, you probably need to edit and stitch them together right? Dont worry about Adobe Premiere, you can use other free programs like Windows Movie Maker, a product from Microsoft. If not that, you can also check out LightWorks and HitFilm Express, two free professional-grade video editing programs.

15. Speaking of videos, there are many times when you need to convert from one format to another. The best video transcoder out there IMHO is HandBrake.

16. Is there a Windows process that is causing spikes in your CPU or other problems. Use Process Explorer and Process Monitor to help diagnose the issue.

Excerpt from:
99 of the Best Windows Freeware Programs You May Not Know Of

There is an emerging consensus that the new Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code rules are against the idea of free speech. Even the normally reticent Editors Guild has issued a statement, airing its concerns about how these new rules will undermine media freedom in the country.

Equally important though is how the IL guidelines follow a 50 year trend of nation states trying to limit access to cryptography and encryption technology for the general public. The United States tried to limit access to cryptography in the late 90s when the cypherpunks stopped this attempt by fighting for free speech in software. When restrictions were put to not allow cryptographic code to be exported abroad, the cypherpunks printed code on t-shirts to bypass and export crypto to the rest of the world.

The end-to-end encryption protocol that we depend on today is an outcome of a 50 year resistance movement, started by the cypherpunks, to protect the sanctity of whispers from prying ears. One way to think about the Narendra Modi governments IL guidelines is that it is trying to ban whispers completely in the realm of conversations by effectively logging every whisper forever in the form of a permanent record.

The issue hence is not just about free speech in the media, but also about free speech in software. At a fundamental level, there is no difference between writing code and publishing it and writing opinions and publishing books. The new intermediary guidelines mandating traceability should be seen as an attempt to dictate how messaging apps use cryptography. It is a form of free speech restriction applicable on a technical domain.

Also read: Explainer: How the New IT Rules Take Away Our Digital Rights

At the heart of this particular issue is the Signal protocol, which through the expression of opinionated code in the cyber domain, has allowed free speech to flourish in the physical domain, and was developed by a non profit company named Open Whisper Systems with the deep belief that whispers must not be snooped upon.

Fingerprinting at Madras HC

The end-to-end encryption debate first flared up in India because of a public interest litigation (PIL) filed in the Madras High Court by an animal rights activist, Anthony Clement Rubin, who faced persistent cyber bullying.

The debate in the court soon shifted towards whether WhatsApp could track the originator of a viral message an incredibly hot issue at the time without breaking encryption.

Even then, anonymous government officials proposed fingerprinting every message as a solution. Tamil Nadus advocate general even argued that end-to-end encryption is not essential when WhatsApp shot down the fingerprinting proposal as impossible to implement.

With the guidelines now being notified, there is now an executive push to implement the fingerprinting solution, with the false claim that it will not break end-to-end encryption.

To understand why the fingerprinting solution breaks end-to-end encryption, we need to understand the concept of forward secrecy.

The Signal Protocol uses Double Ratchet algorithm, a cryptographic scheme which ensures that encryption keys change frequently for every chat session. The key rotation process thus ensures that all messages are never encrypted with the same cryptographic key. This allows forward secrecy, where even if your current encryption key is stolen by an attacker, your previous messages are still secure, as they dont use the same encryption key.

Forward secrecy is quite useful against nation state adversaries like China, who can intercept all your messages by breaking into the telecom infrastructure and can afford to store them for a very long time till it can crack the encryption keys or obtain it forcefully from your phone, by use of physical force. Weakening encryption affects everyone and especially when your adversaries have more advanced cyber operations.

Forward secrecy becomes more achievable, when past messages are automatically deleted after some time, so that no one can access them even when your phone is lost or forcefully taken. Disappearing messages hence have become a standard feature in both the Signal messenger and in WhatsApp, just like how secrets whispered in another persons ear, die out in the wind. This applies even when you send messages in a group, and message copies are deleted from every other device, thus enhancing your privacy and also allow you to speak your mind freely without any inhibitions and within a group of your own choosing.

Unlike Twitter and Facebook, which create a public sphere for sharing viewpoints and for influencing people, messaging platforms are primarily used by individuals and groups for personal communication. It is a given that some of these groups and conversations will be criminal in nature and this segment of users would be no different than a set of like-minded people who would talk about crime after congregating inside a closed room. Law enforcement handled such activities by either infiltrating such groups or by accumulating evidence and prosecuting them for crimes committed, but did not demand all property owners of closed rooms to record everything told within its confines, so that they can identify the speaker of every word.

By ordering the messaging applications to change their encryption methodology to find the first originator of a particular message, the government is forcing them to store hash values of every message and its user. This hashing of every message would effectively mean seeing the content of the messages once requested by law enforcement

For end-to-end encryption to provide privacy by default, platforms are required to store as minimal data as possible. Signal does not store any metadata about users, except their data of joining and last date of accessing the platform and encrypts everything else, which only users can decrypt. WhatsApp however stores metadata, which it hands over to law enforcement when demanded, along with IP addresses and other device identifiers. How useful can this metadata be for law enforcement? Well, it was enough to help prosecute an ISIS recruiter in the US.

Also read: What Regulatory Changes Are on the Anvil for Social Media Platforms, Digital Media?

The specific feature that converts whispers uttered in a closed room into a broadcasting mechanism that can fuel a misinformation and fake news binge which is what the government should really be worried about is the forward message functionality. In the past, WhatsApp has tried to add friction to this, by specifically slowing the spread of messages through the introduction of forwarding limits, while still not going the full hog by allowing people to choose whether a message should be private within the group by default. It did so because there exist many unauthorised spinoffs of its client app, that simply use copy-paste of the message text and deploy the download-store-post sequence that work around these limits.

In the recent arrest of Disha Ravi, the Delhi court observed that freedom of speech and expression includes the right to seek a global audience. There are no geographical barriers to communication. Rather than enacting rules that attempt to ban whispers forever, an attempt that is doomed to fail, there should be more discussion and debate on how messaging forwarding can be tamed.

Intermediary Liability and Why Free Speech in Software Matters - The Wire

"Looks like my connection is breaking up, gotta go!" you can now say with the help of Zoom Escaper.

Tired of the endless parade of Zoom meetings, and the anxiety they can cause? EnterZoom Escaper, a tool that allows you to sabotage your own audio call with the urgent sounds of a barking dog, crying baby, construction noise or wind, giving you the perfect excuse to drop off a call.

Zoom Escaper is a piece of free software created by artist and educator Sam Lavigne. It works through another piece of software called VB-Audio, which operates under a donation system.

We don't necessarily recommend downloading free software that doesn't come from an app store, so please make sure to fully vet the software before you do so. Nor do we necessarily recommend misdirecting your coworkers (although at least one CNET producer has tried it), but we do get how exhausting Zoom can be.

3. Download and install VB-Cable. Then refresh the Zoom Escaper website.

4. Hit the Start button. You'll see eight different audio effects you can try out: echo, upset baby, wind, construction, bad connection, dogs, man weeping and urination (why you'd want the latter two I'm not quite sure). You can change the volume and some other features like feedback on some of the options.

6. Open Zoom, and go to Settings > Audio. Set your Microphone to VB-Cable. Under Suppress background noise, select Low. Under Music and professional audio, select Show in-meeting option..., and make sure all of the boxes under that are unchecked.

7. Start or join a Zoom call. Go back to the Zoom Escaper site, and check the box or boxes for the audio effects you want to add.

8. When you've successfully escaped your meeting (or are done playing around with this), hit the Stop button on the Zoom Escaper site. Go back to your Zoom Audio settings and switch your microphone back to the one you typically use.

Remember: When you apply an audio effect to your call, you won't be able to hear it applied to your own voice, so be careful.
