Estonia is one of the most technologically advanced countries in the world. It is best known for its e-residency, e-voting, e-health, and e-school systems, as well as having the highest number of startups per person. But all of this comes at a price. Because the more services and data that are available online, the greater the risks from cyberattacks.

Estonia was the first country to be subjected to a cyber warfare. It happened in 2007, and during the attack, 58 websites went down at the same time. Estonia has learned a lot from this cyberattack and has invested heavily in cybersecurity since then.

In 2018, Estonia established a new cybersecurity division called Cyber Command, whose mission is to conduct cybersecurity-related operations. There is also Küberkaitseliit, whic predates Cyber Command and is made up wholly of volunteers.

Estonia has a number of policies in place to deal with cyberattacks. It has developed intrusion detection and protection systems, collaborated with both public and private institutions, significantly contributed to user awareness, and is involved in extensive international cooperation.

Online censorship and privacy

Online censorship in Estonia I didn't know this, but Estonia has already been blocking gambling websites that have not been approved by EMTA (Maksu- ja Tolliamet) since 2010, with over 1700 domains now on the list Because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Estonia has now begun censoring Russian TV channels and websites. I never expected Estonia to do something like this. I oppose the war and believe it should be ended as soon as possible, but I also despise the idea of censorship. This act of censorship, in my opinion, is unacceptable and may mark the beginning of a period in which filtering content that is not supported by the government is acceptable. We could end up like China, where people have no free will and are only permitted to think what the government wants people to think. Mozilla Firefox and privacy Firefox always advertises itself as being privacy-protective, but this is not the case by default. Firefox makes a lot of background connections by default, which reveal

Ten commandments from Netiquette

Know where you are in cyberspace This, in my opinion, is the biggest problem on the internet. The internet is made up of many different people, not just one. Individuals are unaware that there are various communities with various types of people and hobbies. There are places for smart people to act stupid and places for stupid people to act smart. Every single one of such places has their own unwritten rules and joining them takes time. As the saying goes: "Lurk more - it's never enough"     My experience I usually see people on the internet saying that places I visit are terrible because someone called them stupid or whatever. It's very common to call people out when they make mistakes or have opposing opinions here, but it's an issue for visitors from other places. They are accustomed to downvoting posts with which they disagree, resulting in a hivemind of like-minded people. Comments they agree with are displayed above, while those they disagree with are not se

Hackers and hacker culture

People are divided into two categories. Those who are hackers and those who aren't. What the news media did to hacker culture in the 1980s is sad. The majority of journalists and politicians at the time lacked technological knowledge and misinterpreted the term "hacking." As a result, everyone now believes that hacking means breaking into computers. Previously, hacking meant learning systems inside out. It meant knowing where things were and what they did. Now it means breaking into computers with the purpose of compromising devices. The hackers at the time tried to differentiate from such people by calling them "crackers", but as we can see today, it didn't succeed and they are still being called hackers. I love hacker culture. The culture is driven by passion rather than money. People can do whatever they want with their devices. The only limitation is one's own creativity. They also advocate for free speech and decentralization. Unfortunately, their f
