High security is a feature that everyone values on their devices. We do want our photos and messages protected and away from prying eyes. But, what if an unlocked device could help solve a case by extracting information that could be used as proof? Apple prides itself on the high security of its devices but when it comes to an ethical standpoint, they seem to be on dodgy footing. The latest in their we-are-not-going-to-do-this list came when the Cupertino-based company refused to help <keyword id="3658" type="LOCATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="India">India</keyword>’s Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) by unlocking Narada News CEO’s <keyword id="6354606" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="iPhone">iPhone</keyword>. The series of sting operations conducted by <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/what-is/narada-sting-operation-case-everything-you-need-to-know-trinamool-congress-mamata-banerjee-4579097/">Narada</a> News in West Bengal on <keyword id="399454" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="All-India-Trinamool-Congress">All India Trinamool Congress</keyword> (AITC) politicians in 2011, exposed the political party’s ‘corrupt’ practices and has since been under the CBI probe. Conducted by Narada’s CEO Matthew Samuel for <keyword id="550113" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Tehelka">Tehelka</keyword> Magazine, the footage was released just days before the 2016 Assembly Elections in the state. The AITC had claimed that the money that was shown exchanging hands was for ‘donations’ and nothing more. The party went on the win the elections that year, but the investigations went on. According to the latest <a href="https://www.gadgetsnow.com/tech-news/apple-says-no-to-cbi-wont-unlock-narada-ceos-iphone/articleshow/64597506.cms">reports</a>, Apple refused to share the password of Samuel’s iPhone 4s that was used to record the 28-minute long footage of AITC politicians allegedly accepting bribes. The report states that Apple got in touch with the agency through the ministry of external affairs, to inform them that it was against their policy to share ‘personal details’ of a client and that they are not willing to violate that principle. The company did confirm, however, that the footage was shot on the iPhone submitted to the agency by Samuel. Apple’s refusal essentially means that the CBI have no way to match the original footage from Samuel’s phone with the one submitted by him. The AITC had challenged the authenticity of the Narada tapes when the case came up for hearing at the <keyword id="6364869" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="calcutta-high-court">Calcutta High Court</keyword>, stating that it could not be ascertained without the original device. The CBI now have Samuel’s iPhone, but with Apple refusing to share the password, they will possibly have to figure out some other way to access the footage on the phone. This, however, isn’t Apple’s first tussle with security agencies. After a face-off with the FBI over unlocking the <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2016/2/17/11036306/apple-fbi-iphone-encryption-backdoor-tim-cook">San Bernardino shooter</a> Syed Farook’s iPhone and then apparently offering to help unlock the <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2017/11/8/16626452/apple-fbi-texas-shooter-iphone-unlock-encryption-debate">Texas shooter’s</a> phone, the company can’t seem to avoid controversy when it comes to security outfits and how it can and should help fight crime.

Off lately, <keyword id="398704" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Indian-IT-firms">Indian IT firms</keyword> have been facing setbacks because of protectionism in the US market. This has forced the IT majors to look for other options, and China is coming up as a possible choice. China is also keen to invite Indian IT majors to participate in the Big Data sector. Rajendra Pawar, the chairman of NIIT, was recently invited by the Guizhou province in China to become a member of its own advisory committee for development of Big Data business with the help of international collaborations. NIIT has a strong presence in China's IT education scene, having opened its largest big data training facility in Guizhou’s capital city Guiyang. "China has closely observed the phenomenon where Indian IT sector has grown by adding huge value to developed countries. This is why they would like to collaborate with Indian companies in a big way," Pawar told TOI. Chinese companies wish to collaborate with Indian firms to operate in complex areas like analysing large blocks of data so that they can be put to wider use. Other than this, they are also interested in investing in Indian startups. "All companies in our delegation are hopeful of landing business in China. They are ready to invest in local presence, and work with local agencies," said <keyword id="831757" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Gagan-Sabharwal">Gagan Sabharwal</keyword>, Director of industry body <keyword id="6372077" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Nasscom">Nasscom</keyword>.

<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image">REUTERS/Anindito MukherjeeTarun Tejpal, the 50-year-old founder and editor-in-chief of <keyword id="3658" type="COUNTRY" weightage="60" keywordseo="India">India</keyword>'s leading investigative magazine Tehelka, speaks with the media upon his arrival at the airport on his way to Goa, in New Delhi November 29, 2013. The man at the centre of a sexual assault scandal that has whipped India's media into a frenzy is no average Joe.</div></div></div>NEW <a>DELHI</a> (Reuters) - Police arrested the editor-in-chief of an Indian magazine on Saturday over allegations that he had sexually assaulted a woman colleague, in a case that has turned the focus back on sexual violence after the fatal gang rape of a woman last year.
The journalist told a superior that <a>Tarun Tejpal</a>, 50-year-old founder of the award-winning weekly <a>Tehelka</a>, had assaulted her twice in a hotel elevator during a conference in the resort state of <a>Goa</a> this month.
The investigation into Tejpal, who denies the accusations, has dominated headlines in <a class="cite">India</a> for 10 days as news outlets follow every twist and turn, and follows similar accusations by an intern against a retired <a class="cite">Supreme Court</a> judge.
"He (Tejpal) has formally been arrested and will be produced before a designated court within 24 hours," Dr. <a class="cite">O.P. Mishra</a>, <a class="cite">Goa</a>'s deputy inspector general of police, told Reuters.
Police have studied closed-circuit video footage from the hotel to establish what happened, but there were no cameras in the elevators, a spokeswoman for <a class="cite">Goa</a>'s chief minister said last week.
In a leaked email to the magazine's management, Tejpal said that an "unfortunate incident" had occurred between himself and the journalist, describing it as "a bad lapse of judgment".
The case has triggered a media debate about silence over the harassment of women at their places of work.
It is also seen as a test of a tougher law on crimes against women that was adopted after a 23-year-old woman was gang-raped on a moving bus in <a class="cite">Delhi</a> last year, beaten and then pushed out onto the street along with her male companion.
She died two weeks later amid an outpouring of anger across <a class="cite">India</a>. Four men were sentenced to death while a teenager was sentenced to juvenile custody.
<a class="cite">India</a>'s working women often face sexual harassment from colleagues, managers or employers, yet few report these cases, fearful of losing their jobs or facing persecution simply for speaking out, gender rights activists say.

 "My father still is not accepting me. He strongly believes that I have brought shame to the society and the family. He asked me not to use his last name," Naaz told Business Insider India. ‘I had no idea what rape even meant.’ Naaz was born a transgender to a multicultural family. Her mother is a Muslim while her father is a Hindu. In spite of having a twin brother and another younger brother, and she was always the odd one out. "When I grew up a little,all the relative told my parents to send me to the trans (hijra) community. But they declined it and wanted me to study,” she says. Yet, they did not want Naaz to stay with them either, so they sent her away to an uncle in Mumbai. The hardworking youngster took up a job at a restaurant where she washed utensils and cleaned tables. All was well until a male cousin raped her when she was 11 years old. "The sad part was that I had no idea what rape even meant. I got to know much later. All I remember is that I was brutally injured.” By the time she realised, it was too late to find a legal battle as evidence was lost with time. The government is fighting an uphill battle to reduce abuse against women, but sexual violence against transgenders is all but ignored. One of the grave indiscrepancies is with punishment. While those who abuse women could be jailed for seven years or more, in the case of transgenders it is <a href="https://www.scmp.com/week-asia/society/article/2154077/india-no-country-transgender-women">defined as physical abuse and punishments range from 6 months</a> to two years. Education failed to become the passport to future Naaz had hoped that education will sort her life. At the age of 12, she started working at a dance bar in Mumbai to support her education, when they were still legal. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 <div type="ExtQuote" text="“I had to pretend to be a 16 year old girl to get work,”" auname="Naaz Joshi"></div>



















 She had encountered other trans women who danced at the bar. Despite all these odds, Naaz sponsored her own education and studied fashion designing at the National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT). She later completed her MBA in marketing from IMT Ghaziabad. "Despite working for big labels like Ritu Kumar and Ritu Beri, I found it hard to get a job," she says. She even pursued a diploma to become an air hostess. Even with a stellar resume and being a NIFT topper, she was forced to take up a job at a massage parlour in South Delhi. “As soon as they get to know about my gender, they used to ignore me,” she laments. As many as 89% of <a href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/left-alone-just-2-of-trans-people-stay-with-parents/articleshow/65380226.cms">qualified transgenders in India do not find employment</a> in India. The gender pay gap is worse with transgender women . Naaz underwent a gender reassignment surgery in 2013, and started modeling.

Naaz Joshi at Roshni Nilaya in Mangaluru My life changed when I appeared on the cover of Tehelka Magazine, the title of which read: "How people like Naaz Joshi are turning the way we see men and women”. In 2017, she was floating on cloud nine when she became won Miss Diversity.

 Even when they are hired, transgenders face the problem that most women do, a blaring pay gap. And for transgenders, the pay difference is as deep as 191%. In her chosen field however, women make more money. "If companies pay ₹35,000 to a female model for a ramp walk or shoot, then it is likely that a trans woman with experience will get only ₹12,000," she informs. A fresher usually earns ₹5,000 for a shoot and if you are a woman with experience in the fashion industry it can go up to ₹35,000 but a trans women with years of experience still earns merely ₹12000. While, the pay hike is 600% for a women, the pay is generally only 140% more for a trans women.

 The treatment that she receives isn’t great either. "The companies pay us little, they behave like they are doing us a favour by featuring us," she says. Naaz wishes that people would treat her like any other women. The Miss Diversity also doubles as a social activist to raise awareness about HIV among women and children. She plans to visit villages near Delhi on September 6 to create awareness on <keyword id="6362797" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="section-377">Section 377</keyword> and the importance of a socially inclusive society. Her next endeavour is to push for legal marriages for the LGBTQIA+ community.
