Specifically, the exploit, dubbed KrШШk allowed hackers to tinker with the encryption of data communicated between a device and the router, causing it to change from a random string of characters to all zeroes and effectively rending the encryption useless.

But failing to look beyond these narratives obscures the moments of hope and humanity at COP26. Political showboating and logistical difficulties have stolen much of the limelight at the summit so far. There are plenty of them to be found, if you peek past the chaos.

"We are committed to aligning Canada's zero-emission vehicles sales targets with those of the most ambitious North American jurisdictions," Canadian Environment Minister Jonathan Wilkinson said as part of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's announcement.

Those packets could contain anything from an email to an IP address and more.  This decrypts witless 'packets' which are essentially shipments of data from a device to a router that are broken up into smaller parts and then reassembled at their destination.

Our friendly neighbor to the North, aka Canada, has announced its intention to ban the sale of new internal-combustion-powered passenger cars and light trucks by 2035, with the goal of reaching net-zero emissions by 2050, according to a Reuters report Tuesday.

Schwab also urged FIFA's Bahraini senior vice-president Sheikh Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa to "use the power of his office" to win Alaraibi's release, warning that failure to do so would be "a fundamental breach of hi

I had no problems using public transport to reach the venue from Edinburgh, some 50 miles (80 kilometers) away, and waited only around 10 minutes in a fast-moving queue to quickly pass through the airport-style security to access the summit.  In contrast, my own experience has been remarkably chaos free.

The conference comes at a critical point in the fight to reverse the climate crisis. A report earlier from the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, or IPCC, this year described the climate situation as a "code red for humanity." Wildfires, hurricanes and other forces of nature have ravaged countries around the world, a consequence of warming temperatures. 

You must pay for any treatment upfront but can then claim back the cost - typically 50 per cent, 75 per cent or sometimes up to 100 per cent - depending on the treatment and level of cover you have, up to your maximum annual limit.

The plan, which the Trudeau administration proposed, would see Canada joining the state of California and countries like the United Kingdom (though the UK's plan is even more ambitious, giving itself five fewer years to meet its goal) in shifting toward electric vehicles.

The schemes, sometimes known as NHS top-up plans, are a form of low cost insurance policy to help meet the cost of a range of non-urgent healthcare procedures and appointments - not just at the dentist but also at the optician and for osteopathy, physiotherapy, chiropody and a visit to a chiropractor.

I found it touching to observe the tenderness of the ritual, which showed a respect for the dignity of all people coming to Glasgow -- not just the dignitaries. On Sunday, the COP26 coalition -- a collection of civil society groups organizing for climate justice -- held its own opening event on the sidelines of the summit. It was followed by a ceremony in which Scottish children washed the feet of visiting Indigenous elders to rid them of the dust of their journey.

World leaders failed to agree on an end date to their use of coal and to get all countries to commit to net zero by 2050, which didn't make for an optimistic start to the UN climate summit in the eyes of many onlookers. The same is true of the political negotiations. Whether the G-20 talks that took place in Rome last week went well or whether they didn't depends on who you ask.

Schwab also revealed that the numerous organisations that operate under the WPA's umbrella, including global footballers' union FIFPro and cricketers' equivalent FICA, had been contacted often by athletes worried about their prospects if they catch the virus.

Hakeem Alaraibi, 25, who played for the gulf state's national youth team, fled his homeland and was granted asylum in Australia where he plays semi-professionally for the second-tier team Pascoe Vale FC in

'This results in scenarios where client devices that are unaffected (either patched or using different Wi-Fi chips not vulnerable to Kr00k) can be connected to an access point (often times beyond an individual's control) that is vulnerable,' researchers wrote in a research paper.

He was detained entering Thailand for a vacation and held "with a substantial number of other detainees... in very trying conditions", Brendan Schwab, executive director of the World Players' Association (WPA), told AFP
