Apollo 11 — 50th Anniversary
I was recently reading the July, 2019 issue of “Science Scope,” a magazine written for middle school science teachers, published by the National Science Teachers Association.
In this issue, I read an article entitled “The 50th Anniversary of Apollo 11.” On Sunday July 20, 1969 at 4:17 pm EDT, the “Eagle” spacecraft landed on the lunar surface in an area known as the Sea of Tranquility.

Privacy Grade
Grades are assigned using a privacy model that we built. This privacy model measures the gap between people’s expectations of an app’s behavior and the app’s actual behavior. For example, according to studies we have conducted, most people don’t expect games like Cut the Rope to use location data, but many of them actually do. This kind of surprise is represented in our privacy model as a penalty to an app’s overall privacy grade. In contrast, most people do expect apps like Google Maps to use location data. This lack of surprise is represented in our privacy model as a small or no penalty.
