Blown to Bits Chapter 3Giuliana Sgrena - correct answer ✔As the car conveying her to safety
approached a checkpoint, it was struck with gunfire from American soldiers.
Report - correct answer ✔The U.S. produced a 42-page report on the
incident, exonerating the U.S. soldiers.The Italians quickly released their own
report, which differed from the U.S. report in crucial details. The redacted
report was posted on a web site the allies used to provide war information to
the media. In an instant, it was visible to any of the world's hundreds of
millions of Internet users.
Usefulness of paper and electronic documents: - correct answer ✔Paper
documents and electronic documents are useful in many of the same ways.
Both can be inspected, copied, and stored.But they are not equally useful for
all purposes. Electronic documents are easier to change, but paper
documents are easier to read in the bathtub.
WYSIWYG "What You See Is What You Get." - correct answer ✔They edit
the electronic document on the screen, and when they print it, it looks just the
same. They are deceived into thinking that what is in the computer is a sort of
miniaturized duplicate of the image on the screen, instead of computer codes
that produce the picture on the screen. In fact, the WYSIWYG metaphor is
imperfect, and therefore risky.
Highlighting in PDF - correct answer ✔The report had been prepared using
software that creates PDF files. Such software often includes a "Highlighter
Tool," meant to mimic the felt markers that leave a pale mark on ordinary
paper, through which the underlying text is visible. Probably someone tried to
turn the Highlighter Tool into a redaction tool by changing its color to black,
unaware that what was visible on the screen was not the same as the
contents of the electronic document.
, John Young - correct answer ✔A man who administers a website devoted to
publishing government-restricted documents, removed the redaction bars and
revealed the names of CIA agents. A controversy ensued about the ethics and
legality of the disclosure, but the names are still available on the Web as of
this writing.
Another Mistake - correct answer ✔The Washington Post made a similar
mistake in 2002, when it published an article about a demand letter left by the
Washington snipers. As posted on the Post's website, certain information was
redacted in a way that was easily reversed by a reader of the online edition of
the paper
The Adobe Acrobat software - correct answer ✔The Adobe Acrobat software
has a security feature, which uses encryption makes it impossible for
documents to be altered by unauthorized persons, while still enabling anyone
to view them.
Encryption: - correct answer ✔The process of converting information or data
into a code, especially to prevent unauthorized access.
PDF (Portable Document Filter): - correct answer ✔A file format that
provides an electronic image of text or text and graphics that looks like a
printed document and can be viewed, printed, and electronically transmitted
Redax: - correct answer ✔Government agencies used this to redact text
from documents created by Adobe Acrobat.
Track Changes: - correct answer ✔If enabled, every change made to the
document is logged as part of the document itself ordinarily not shown. The
document bears its entire creation history: who made each change, when, and
what it was.
