Following the Cambridge Analytica scandal, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) moved to fine Facebook $5 billion for violating the terms of a consent decree. The settlement represents the largest fine the FTC has ever levied against a company.

剑桥分析公司(Cambridge Analytica)丑闻曝光后，联邦贸易委员会(FTC)因违反同意令的条款，向Facebook罚款50亿美元。 和解协议是联邦贸易委员会对公司征收的最高罚款。

In early 2018, reports that Cambridge Analytica had detailed information about millions of Facebook users began to spread. The company (through third parties) created an app called “This is Your Digital Life” that claimed to be a personality quiz. Everyone who took the quiz shared information about themselves to Cambridge Analytica. But, they also shared data about every one of their friends to the company as well.

在2018年初，有报道称Cambridge Analytica拥有有关数百万Facebook用户的详细信息，并开始传播。 该公司(通过第三方)创建了一个名为“这就是您的数字生活”的应用，该应用声称是个性测验。 参加测验的每个人都将自己的信息分享给Cambridge Analytica。 但是，他们也向公司共享了有关每个朋友的数据。

Even if you never took the quiz, your data could have shared to Cambridge Analytica. Eventually, Facebook admitted that over 87 million users had their data shared, whether or not they took the quiz.

即使您从未参加测验，您的数据也可能已共享给Cambridge Analytica。 最终，Facebook承认，无论是否参加测验，都有超过8700万用户共享了他们的数据。

At the time, Facebook was under an FTC consent decree in which the company promised not to make deceptive promises concerning user’s data security, and to get explicit permission before overriding a user’s permission settings, among other commitments.

当时，Facebook处于FTC 同意令之下，该公司承诺不对用户的数据安全做出欺骗性承诺，并承诺在覆盖用户的许可设置之前获得明确的许可，以及其他承诺。

This latest settlement charges that Facebook violated the decree. While $5 billion is the largest fine the FTC has ever issued, Facebook will likely survive with relative ease. The company had already set aside $3 billion in anticipation of the fine and made three times that in revenue in its last fiscal quarter. [Ars Technica]

最新的和解指控Facebook违反了该法令。 尽管50亿美元是FTC曾经发布的最大一笔罚款，但Facebook可能会相对轻松地生存下去。 该公司已经预计将罚款30亿美元，是上一财季收入的三倍。 [ Ars Technica ]

• Watch a deleted storyboard scene from Tim Burton’s Batman: Usually, a deleted scene in storyboard format wouldn’t be something worth watching. But in this deleted scene, not only did Tim Burton introduce the caped crusader’s sidekick, Robin, Kevin Conroy and Mark Hammill provide the voices of Batman and Joker. Those two arguably gave us the best animated versions of Batman and Joker to this date. [Gizmodo]

A new treatment may help some bats survive white noise syndrome.

一种新的治疗方法可能会帮助一些蝙蝠幸免于白噪声综合症。

If you have been on a cave tour with bats recently, you might have been surprised by the trip you took after the tour was over—a walk through a disinfectant mat. In some cases, you may have stepped through the Lysol solution before the trip as well.

如果您最近与蝙蝠一起去洞穴旅游，您可能会对游览结束后的旅行感到惊讶，那就是穿过消毒垫。 在某些情况下，您可能还需要在旅行前逐步完成Lysol解决方案。

Unfortunately, a fungal disease dubbed White Nose syndrome has been spreading rapidly to bats in the United States cave systems. As the name suggests, it shows up on the nose and looks like white foam. The disease is often fatal and has decimated bat populations, including wiping out 90% of the brown bat population.

不幸的是，在美国的洞穴系统中，一种被称为“白鼻子综合症”的真菌疾病已Swift传播到蝙蝠。 顾名思义，它出现在鼻子上，看起来像白色泡沫。 这种疾病通常是致命的，蝙蝠数量减少，包括消灭了90％的棕色蝙蝠。

The disinfectant mat you walked through became one of many steps to try and stop the spread of the disease. The fear is if you step into a cave where the fungal infection has already spread, it will stick to your footwear and lay dormant until your next cave trip elsewhere. When you step into that cave, you may be the unwitting carrier to a new population.

您走过的消毒垫已成为阻止疾病传播的众多步骤之一。 担心的是，如果您走进真菌感染已经扩散的洞穴，它会粘在鞋上并处于Hibernate状态，直到您下次在其他地方进行洞穴之旅为止。 当您走进那个山洞时，您可能是新人群的不知情的携带者。

Unfortunately, it isn’t just our shoes the fungal spores stick to. Our coats, cameras, and other everyday camping items we take with us are also viable carriers. So the disease has continued to spread despite precautions.

不幸的是，真菌孢子附着的不仅仅是我们的鞋子。 我们带走的外套，相机和其他日常露营用品也是可行的携带者。 因此尽管采取了预防措施，该疾病仍在继续蔓延。

Now scientists discovered that spraying affected bats on the nose with a “good” bacteria may fight off White Nose syndrome. In a few studies when tracking sprayed bats versus untreated bats, the former had a 50% survival rate over the winter after infection. The untreated bats did not fare nearly as well, often only having one survivor.

现在，科学家们发现，用“好”细菌在鼻子上喷洒蝙蝠可以抵抗白鼻子综合症。 在一些追踪喷雾蝙蝠与未处理蝙蝠的研究中，前者在感染后的整个冬季存活率为50％。 未经处理的蝙蝠表现不佳，通常只有一个幸存者。

A 50% survivor rate still isn’t enough on its own, but it is an improvement. And hopefully combined with other treatments, we can prevent a total population die-out, at least long enough for bats to develop immunity on their own. [ScienceNews]

仅凭50％的存活率还不够，但这是一种进步。 并希望与其他治疗方法相结合，我们可以防止整个种群死亡，至少足够长的时间让蝙蝠自行发展免疫力。 [ ScienceNews ]
