Bulk Delete Books from Manage my Kindle Page

Amazon doesn’t let you delete books from Manage My Kindle in bulk. If you use chrome, you can automate the process of deleting books, so essentially… deleting in bulk. So that woul You can either delete everything from the current page, or you can delete all books with the same title. For example, I used a service to automatcly send me updates from TechCrunch daily. After a while my Manage my kindle page got overloaded with “TechCrunch” To delete them, I changed to the part that says “changetonameofbook” to the name of book I wanted auto deleted.

To excute this command you need chrome (you can on other browsers to but I use chrome). Click Command Option J (On Mac) and Ctrl Shift J (Windows) at the same time and then copy and paste the code below, making sure to change the “changetonameofbook” to the name of book you want to bulk delete.  It will now delete everything named the same as that book on the current page. This is really helpful and can save a LOT of time!

var a=document.getElementsByClassName(‘rowHeaderCollapsed’);
var to_delete = [];
for(var i = 0; i<a.length; i++){
if (a[i].getElementsByClassName(‘headerTitle’)[0].textContent == ‘changetonameofbook’) {
var id = a[i].getElementsByTagName(‘input’)[1].value;
to_delete.push(id);}}for(var i = 0; i<to_delete.length; i++){Fion.deleteItem(‘deleteItem_’+to_delete[i]);}

Also If you wanted to just delete everything on the page use this code instead:

javascript:(function(){ var v = new RegExp(“PersonalDocuments”); if (!v.test(document.URL)) { return false; } {a=document.getElementsByClassName(‘rowBodyCollapsed’);for(var i = 0; i<a.length; i++){Fion.deleteItem(‘deleteItem_’+a[i].getAttribute(‘asin’));};return; }})();

Just paste that one into your address bar! (The part where you type “google.com”)

Hope this helped!

Tor: Fixed DNS Leaking in New Version of Tor

The Security bug that was found a couple of days ago in Tor, has been fixed! I HIGHLY recomend you update imediatly!!! This is a VERY important update.

If you don’t…your privacy might be comprimised!!!

How to: Pay Anonymously Online

Its actually pretty easy if you think about it. You could use BitCoins…but not very many sites accept them. But you could buy a Visa Gift Card. A Visa Gift Card is basically a credit card that is not attached to anyones SSN in any way. You can pick them up at your local Target, Walmart, CVS, etc

In order to stay completely anonymous using them you should buy it with cash. And if you are signing up for something that is recurring (e.g a VPN connection) you should buy a $100 one instead (so you don’t have to keep switching out the card). Also, in order to pay online you have to register them. But they don’t ask for you SSN…so you could put in a fake address and fake name. Also I would register and pay with them using TOR. TOR hides you IP and encrypts your information online. So the company wouldn’t be able to look you up by your IP address.  I am not responsible for you actions…remember that. This is fore education purposes only. So don’t be doing anything illegal (but you wouldn’t get caught…because it is anonymous ;P)

TOR: Security Bug in Current Version of TOR

A security bug was recently found in TOR! When you connect to a websocket service, your firefox will query your local dns server rather than communicating to TOR as it is supposed to do! Here is a copy from the TOR website on how to fix it!

To fix this dns leak/security hole, follow these steps:

1. Type “about:config” (without the quotes) into the Firefox URL bar. Press Enter.
2. Type “websocket” (again, without the quotes) into the search bar that appears below “about:config”.
3. Double-click on “network.websocket.enabled”. That line should now show “false” in the ‘Value’ column.

See Tor bug 5741 for more details. We are currently working on new bundles with a better fix.

Instagram Stores Geolocation Data in EVERY Photo without Users Knowledge

If Instagram asks you if it can use your current location, even only once, it will autmacticly store the locaction of EVERY photo taken, even though it didn’t tell you that it would do that! There is no setting to only use this for certain photos. The location wont be publicly visible (unless you select it to before you publish the photo), but it will be publicly available….

The scary thing is that this is not hard to get. All you have to do is go to ink361.com and sign in with your instagram account. Once you’ve signed in you can view all of your (and people you follow) photos. If you click on a photo it will have a little map at the botom which will tell you where the photo was taken.

Requirements

An Instagram account

Instagram is Allowed to Use Your Location (Check settings)

A Computer to Access ink361.com

Instructions

1. Go to ink361.com and sign in with your instagram account.

2. Once you’ve logged in you need to find a photo you want to geolocate. I am going to find the location of a photo on the popular page. Scroll to the bottom of the photo and you will see a little map. You can click on that map to see where the photo was taken. This does not give you an address or coordinates though, and it is hard to see street names. If you would like to see the coordinates read below.

Finding the Coordinates

1. You will need Chrome (you can do it with other browsers though). Right click on the little map and click “Inspect Element”

2. Now you should see a clump of text highlighted in blue. The coordinates will be after the part:

size:small%7C

It will be directly after the 7C

3. Now that you have the coordinates head over to Google Maps and paste the coordinates to see the address!

 

UPDATE: There is an easier way to find the coordinates. Go to the website http://hashgr.am/ It will give you the option to search for a user or just search instagram. Put in the user you want, click on the photo you want….And volla, the coordinates will be at the bottom of the page with a link to google maps!

Also you don’t have to be an instagram user to do this!!!

View All of the User’s Photos on a Map

1.  If you would like to see all of the user’s photos on a map at once follow the instructions in the pics below

How to turn this Off

If you would like to have Instragm stop geotagging all of you photos just go into your Settings and un-allow instgram to use your location. The downside to this is that if you want to use the actual geolcation feature (the one that lets people see the location of the photo inside the actual app) You would have to re-allow instagram to use your location (and turn it off again when done). That could be a very time consuming process.

This can be scary because if you take a photo at your house, you probably didn’t relize that people now know the address of your house. Say you had a lot of followers, maybe one of them is………a stalker  -_-
