  [Tut] Contact Form with Custom Image Captcha Validation like Google reCaptcha

Contact Form with Custom Image Captcha Validation like Google reCaptcha

Last modified on January 9th, 2020 by Vincy.

A contact form on a website is a medium to the users to contact the site admin or maintainer. It acts as a medium of communication. For many a websites, it is a critical factor in getting a sale.

The Captcha in a form is a mechanism to prevent bots or malicious users from submitting the form. It protects the site from security abuses.

There are components available in the market to render captcha in a form. Google reCAPTCHA is a popular and unbeatable service to make your form captcha-enabled.

  1. Different websites use different types of captcha.
  2. Displaying random alpha-numeric characters.
  3. Requesting to solve puzzles, Google reCAPTCHA-like image captcha.

I created an example code for a contact form in PHP with the reCAPTCHA-like image captcha mechanism.

Contact Form In Php With Captcha

What is inside?


  1. Existing contact form component
  2. About this example
  3. File structure
  4. HTML code to show contact form with image captcha
  5. PHP code to validate image captcha and send contact mail
  6. Contact form captcha image database script
  7. Contact form output with custom image captcha

Ready-made contact form components are existing huge in number around the web. If you want to get one among them, then we need to be sure about the security and robustness of the code.

I have created a secure spam-free contact form script, Iris. I coded this component to easily integrate and configure with your application. If you are looking for a contact form that controls spam without using a captcha, then you will like it.

This also component includes Google reCAPTCHA. You can enable or disable this feature on a need basis. In similar ways, it comes with loads of features that is configurable in minutes.

About this example


This example code has the Name, Email, Subject and Message fields. These are some basic fields that we have seen with other PHP contact form example earlier.

Added to these fields, I have added an image captcha section in this code. This section will show five random images and ask to choose one. The random images are from the database.

I used jQuery script to validate the form field data before posting it to the PHP.

In PHP, it validates the captcha image clicked by the user. Based on the server-side captcha validation, the PHP will respond to the user.

File structure


The PHP contact form with an image captcha example includes less number of files.

The file structure is in the below screenshot. You can see that it has a systematic code with a conventional structure.

Contact Form with Image Captcha File Structure

This code snippet shows the HTML part of the index.php, the landing page.

This contact form contains some basic fields with custom captcha in PHP.

The captcha section shows the SVG image markup from the database. It displays five random images and requests the user to select one.

The HTML form has the specification of a jQuery validation handler. The form-submit event will invoke this handler to process the form validation.

This HTML includes the response containers to display notifications to the user. These notifications acknowledge the user about the captcha validation or other responses.

index.php (contact form HTML)

<html> <head> <title>Contact Us Form</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="assets/css/contact-form-style.css" /> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="assets/css/phppot-style.css" /> <script src="vendor/jquery/jquery-3.2.1.min.js"></script> </head> <body> <div class="phppot-container"> <h1>PHP contact form with captcha images</h1> <form name="frmContact" id="captcha-cnt-frm" class="phppot-form" frmContact"" method="post" action="" enctype="multipart/form-data" on‌submit="return validateContactForm()"> <div class="phppot-row"> <div class="label"> Name <span id="userName-info" class="validation-message"></span> </div> <input type="text" class="phppot-input" name="userName" id="userName" value="<?php if(!empty($_POST['userName'])&& $type == 'error'){ echo $_POST['userName'];}?>" /> </div> <div class="phppot-row"> <div class="label"> Email <span id="userEmail-info" class="validation-message"></span> </div> <input type="text" class="phppot-input" name="userEmail" id="userEmail" value="<?php if(!empty($_POST['userEmail'])&& $type == 'error'){ echo $_POST['userEmail'];}?>" /> </div> <div class="phppot-row"> <div class="label"> Subject <span id="subject-info" class="validation-message"></span> </div> <input type="text" class="phppot-input" name="subject" id="subject" value="<?php if(!empty($_POST['subject'])&& $type == 'error'){ echo $_POST['subject'];}?>" /> </div> <div class="phppot-row"> <div class="label"> Message <span id="userMessage-info" class="validation-message"></span> </div> <textarea name="content" id="content" class="phppot-input" cols="60" rows="6"><?php if(!empty($_POST['content'])&& $type == 'error'){ echo $_POST['content'];}?></textarea> </div> <?php if (! empty($result)) { ?> <div class="phppot-row"> <div class="captcha-container <?php if(!empty($border)){ echo $border;} ?>"> <p> Select the <span class="text-color"><?php echo $result[0]['name'];?> </span><span id="captcha-info" class="validation-message"></span> </p> <input type="hidden" name="captcha_code" value="<?php echo $result[0]['name'];?>"> <?php shuffle($captchaOutput); if (! empty($captchaOutput)) { foreach ($captchaOutput as $value) { ?> <div class="svg-padding"> <div class="svg"><?php echo $value['captcha_icon'];?> <input type="hidden" class="icons" value="<?php echo $value['name'];?>"> </div> </div> <?php }}?> </div> </div> <?php }?> <div class="phppot-row"> <input type="submit" name="send" class="send-button" value="Send" /> </div> <input type="hidden" name="captcha_chosen" id="captcha-chosen" value=""> </form> <?php if(!empty($message)) { ?> <div id="phppot-message" class="<?php echo $type; ?>"><?php if(isset($message)){ ?> <?php echo $message; }}?> </div> </div> <script src="assets/js/captcha.js"></script> </body> </html> 

jQuery script to validate contact form and highlight captcha selection


This section shows the jQuery script for validation and captcha selection.

The validateContactForm() function is handling the form validation. All the contact form fields are mandatory. This function is making sure about the non-empty state of the form fields.

On selecting one of the lists of captcha images, the script puts the selected value in a form field. Also, it highlights the selected by adding CSS via script.

If the user selects no captcha, then the validation will return false.

assets/js/captcha.js

function validateContactForm() { var valid = true; $("#userName").removeClass("error-field"); $("#userEmail").removeClass("error-field"); $("#subject").removeClass("error-field"); $("#content").removeClass("error-field"); $("#userName-info").html("").hide(); $("#userEmail-info").html("").hide(); $("#subject-info").html("").hide(); $("#content-info").html("").hide(); $(".validation-message").html(""); $(".phppot-input").css('border', '#e0dfdf 1px solid'); $(".captcha-container").css('border', '#e0dfdf 1px solid'); var userName = $("#userName").val(); var userEmail = $("#userEmail").val(); var subject = $("#subject").val(); var content = $("#content").val(); var captcha = $("#captcha-chosen").val(); if (userName.trim() == "") { $("#userName-info").html("required.").css("color", "#ee0000").show(); $("#userName").css('border', '#e66262 1px solid'); $("#userName").addClass("error-field"); valid = false; } if (userEmail.trim() == "") { $("#userEmail-info").html("required.").css("color", "#ee0000").show(); $("#userEmail").css('border', '#e66262 1px solid'); $("#userEmail").addClass("error-field"); valid = false; } if (!userEmail.match(/^([\w-\.]+@([\w-]+\.)+[\w-]{2,4})?$/)) { $("#userEmail-info").html("invalid email address.").css("color", "#ee0000").show(); $("#userEmail").css('border', '#e66262 1px solid'); $("#userEmail").addClass("error-field"); valid = false; } if (subject == "") { $("#subject-info").html("required.").css("color", "#ee0000").show(); $("#subject").css('border', '#e66262 1px solid'); $("#subject").addClass("error-field"); valid = false; } if (content == "") { $("#userMessage-info").html("required.").css("color", "#ee0000").show(); $("#content").css('border', '#e66262 1px solid'); $("#content").addClass("error-field"); valid = false; } if (captcha == "") { $("#captcha-info").html("required."); $(".captcha-container").css('border', '#e66262 1px solid'); valid = false; } if (valid == false) { $('.error-field').first().focus(); valid = false; } return valid; } $(".svg-padding").on('click', function() { $(".svg").removeClass('captcha-selected'); $(this).find(".svg").addClass('captcha-selected'); var icons = $(this).find(".icons").val(); $("#captcha-chosen").val(icons); }); 

CSS created for contact form example


These are the exclusive styles created to present the contact form. Mostly, it contains styles for the captcha section.

I used a generic CSS template for designing other common form components. You can find this CSS in the downloadable.

assets/css/contact-form-style.css

.svg-padding { display: inline-block; } .svg { cursor: pointer; padding: 5px 5px 5px 5px; border-radius: 3px; margin: 0px 5px 0px 5px; border: 1px solid #FFF; } .text-color { font-weight: bold; } .captcha-container { background: #fff; padding: 15px; border: 1px solid #9a9a9a; width: 270px; border-radius: 3px; padding-top: 0px; } .error-field { border: 1px solid #d96557; } .send-button { cursor: pointer; background: #3cb73c; border: #36a536 1px solid; color: #FFF; font-size: 1em; width: 100px; } .captcha-selected { color: #1cb87b; background-color: #e3e3e3; border: #d7d7d7 1px solid; } .border-error-color { border: 1px solid #e66262; } 

On loading the contact form, the PHP code reads the random captcha images from the database. In PHP, it picks one image from the random results as the captcha code.

The HTML form contains a hidden field to have this code.

When the user selects an image and posts it to the PHP, it will validate the selected captcha.

The user-selected captcha is matched with the pre-loaded code, then the PHP code will return true. Then, it will process the contact email sending script.

index.php (Captcha Validation and Mail sending)

<?php namespace Phppot; require_once ("Model/Contact.php"); $contact = new Contact(); if (! empty($_POST['send'])) { if ($_POST['captcha_code'] == $_POST['captcha_chosen']) { $contact->sendContactMail($_POST); $message = "Hi, we have received your message. Thank you."; $type = "success"; } else { $message = "Invalid captcha. Please select the correct image."; $type = "error"; $border = "border-error-color"; } } $result = $contact->getRecord(); $termId = $result[0]['id']; $captchaResult = $contact->getCaptchaIcons($termId); $randomCaptchaResult = $contact->getRandomCaptchaId($termId); $captchaOutput = array_merge($captchaResult, $randomCaptchaResult); ?> 

In this PHP model class, it has the functions to read random captcha images from the database.

The getRecord() method reads a single random record to load captcha code on the page load.

The sendContactMail() function send the contact mail. I used PHP mail() function for this example. If you want to use SMTP for sending the email, you can see the example in the linked article.

Model/Contact.php

<?php namespace Phppot; use Phppot\DataSource; class Contact { private $ds; function __construct() { require_once __DIR__ . './../lib/DataSource.php'; $this->ds = new DataSource(); } function getRecord() { $query = "SELECT * FROM tbl_term ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1"; $result = $this->ds->select($query); return $result; } function getCaptchaIcons($id) { $query = "SELECT tbl_captcha_images.*, tbl_term.name FROM tbl_captcha_images JOIN tbl_term ON tbl_captcha_images.term_id = tbl_term.id WHERE term_id != " . $id . " ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 4"; $captchaResult = $this->ds->select($query); return $captchaResult; } function getRandomCaptchaId($id) { $query = "SELECT tbl_captcha_images.*, tbl_term.name FROM tbl_captcha_images JOIN tbl_term ON tbl_captcha_images.term_id = tbl_term.id WHERE term_id = " . $id . " ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1"; $captcha = $this->ds->select($query); return $captcha; } function sendContactMail($postValues) { $name = $postValues["userName"]; $email = $postValues["userEmail"]; $subject = $postValues["subject"]; $content = $postValues["content"]; $toEmail = "SITE_ADMIN_EMAIL"; // Put in place the recipient email $mailHeaders = "From: " . $name . "<" . $email . ">\r\n"; mail($toEmail, $subject, $content, $mailHeaders); } } 

lib/Datasource.php

<?php namespace Phppot; /** * Generic datasource class for handling DB operations. * Uses MySqli and PreparedStatements. * * @version 2.3 */ class DataSource { // PHP 7.1.0 visibility modifiers are allowed for class constants. // when using above 7.1.0, declare the below constants as private const HOST = 'localhost'; const USERNAME = 'root'; const PASSWORD = ''; const DATABASENAME = 'contact_form_captcha'; private $conn; /** * PHP implicitly takes care of cleanup for default connection types. * So no need to worry about closing the connection. * * Singletons not required in PHP as there is no * concept of shared memory. * Every object lives only for a request. * * Keeping things simple and that works! */ function __construct() { $this->conn = $this->getConnection(); } /** * If connection object is needed use this method and get access to it. * Otherwise, use the below methods for insert / update / etc. * * @return \mysqli */ public function getConnection() { $conn = new \mysqli(self::HOST, self::USERNAME, self::PASSWORD, self::DATABASENAME); if (mysqli_connect_errno()) { trigger_error("Problem with connecting to database."); } $conn->set_charset("utf8"); return $conn; } /** * To get database results * * @param string $query * @param string $paramType * @param array $paramArray * @return array */ public function select($query, $paramType = "", $paramArray = array()) { $stmt = $this->conn->prepare($query); if (! empty($paramType) && ! empty($paramArray)) { $this->bindQueryParams($stmt, $paramType, $paramArray); } $stmt->execute(); $result = $stmt->get_result(); if ($result->num_rows > 0) { while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) { $resultset[] = $row; } } if (! empty($resultset)) { return $resultset; } } } 

This SQL script includes the structure and data of the tables used to display custom captcha. The tbl_captcha_images table contains the SVG markup of the captcha images.

I have used another table tbl_term to hold the captcha term and title. The captcha term is for stating the user what to select. The captcha title is a slug to add it with a title attribute.

  News - HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed Dev Says All The Game’s Updates Will Be Entirely Free
Posted by: xSicKxBot - 01-20-2020, 08:01 PM - Forum: Nintendo Discussion - No Replies

HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed Dev Says All The Game’s Updates Will Be Entirely Free


One genre that’s somewhat underrepresented on the Switch is FPS. More recently, we’ve got games like Overwatch and Alien: Isolation, but the pickings are still considerably slim compared to the number of first-person shooters available on other platforms. Fortunately, by the end of this month, there’ll be at least one more to select from on Nintendo’s hybrid platform and it’s called Hypercharge: Unboxed.

This upcoming release is a bright and colourful FPS that takes place in your typical suburban household and draws inspiration from Toy Story, Small Soldiers and perhaps even certain entries in the Army Men series. You take control of a 5-inch tall soldier as you fight off wave after wave of enemies in bedrooms, bathrooms, gardens and more. Unlike various other shooters, though, you won’t have to pay to unlock any other additional content in the game.

On the official Hypercharge: Unboxed Twitter account, the UK-based indie developer behind the game – Digital Cybercherries – revealed all of the game’s updates would be entirely free and shared a full road map of the plans for the next four months after the game releases.

Hypercharge: Unboxed - Road Map

When you spend your hard-earned cash on a game, you shouldn’t have to splash out even more on updates. Well guess what, you won’t pay for our updates. Here is a breakdown of what we aim to have in-game this year.

As you can see above, these updates will add new characters, modes, maps, enemies, and weapons. There’ll also be quality of life improvements and in March a demo will be made available.

Keep an eye out for our Nintendo Life review of Hypercharge: Unboxed, which goes live later today.

CoroCoro Comic Teases Animal Crossing: New Horizons “Scoop”

Animal Crossing New Horizons

It’s crazy to think just how close we are to the release of Animal Crossing: New Horizons on the Nintendo Switch and still don’t know all that much about the game. We’ve seen a number of screenshots and the Nintendo Treehouse presentation at E3 last year showed off a small portion of the game, but other than that, we haven’t heard much else.

While we still hope to see or hear something from Nintendo before the game’s big release, according to Japanese Nintendo, the March 2020 issue of CoroCoro Comic promises to have a special “scoop” about this upcoming release. This issue will become available in Japan on 15th February, so we guess we’ll find out what the news is then, and whether it’s as exciting as CoroCoro is making it out to be. For now, here’s a scan of the teaser:


Are you looking forward to the release of Animal Crossing: New Horizons on Switch? What would you like to see or hear about the game before its release in March? Leave a comment down below.

  News - First Castlevania Season 3 Image Revealed, Shows Off New Characters
Posted by: xSicKxBot - 01-20-2020, 08:01 PM - Forum: Lounge - No Replies

First Castlevania Season 3 Image Revealed, Shows Off New Characters

Netflix has revealed the first image for the anticipated third season of Castlevania, its original animated series based on the acclaimed video game franchise of the same name. If you're looking for a first look at what to expect from Season 3, look at the header image of the show's Twitter account--or just keep scrolling, we've embedded it below.

The new header image features four characters. Of the four, only one is immediately recognizable--Carmilla, the secondary antagonist of Castlevania Season 2 and a recurring boss from the video game series. The other three are brand-new, never-before-seen characters. The image offers no hint as to the allegiance of the three new characters, though spotlighting them at all implies that they'll feature prominently in some capacity to the storyline of Season 3.

Carmilla is the one on the far right--the remaining three haven't been seen in the Castlevania series as of yet.
Carmilla is the one on the far right--the remaining three haven't been seen in the Castlevania series as of yet.

Not much is yet known about Castlevania Season 3. Netflix confirmed a Season 3 would be made almost immediately after the debut of Season 2, adding that director Sam Deats, writer/executive producer Warren Ellis, and executive producers Adi Shankar, Fred Seibert, and Kevin Kolde would return. Season 3 is scheduled to consist of 10 episodes.

In a description for Season 3, Netflix writes, "Trevor Belmont, last survivor of his house, is no longer alone, and he and his misfit comrades race to find a way to save humanity from extinction at the hands of the grief-maddened Dracula and his sinister vampire war council."

Castlevania is one of Netflix's expanding library of anime exclusives alongside acclaimed hits like Aggretsuko, Devilman Crybaby, and Violet Evergarden.

  News - Xbox One's Elite Series 2 Controller Gets Rare Discount At Amazon
Posted by: xSicKxBot - 01-20-2020, 12:41 PM - Forum: Lounge - No Replies

Xbox One's Elite Series 2 Controller Gets Rare Discount At Amazon

The Xbox One's Elite Series 2 controller is one of my favourite pads and a huge improvement over the first Elite controller. It is quite an expensive piece of gaming tech, though, which makes it a bit of a hard sell for most gamers. However, if you're subscribed to Amazon Prime, you can snag yourself an Xbox Elite Series 2 controller with a $20 discount.

While currently listed at $177.07, you'll see the Prime-exclusive discount at checkout, dropping your price to $159.99. As usual, you'll get free one- or two-day Prime shipping. Because this is Amazon, there's no knowing exactly when this deal will end, so don't wait if you've been holding out for a discount on the Elite Series 2.

The great thing about the Xbox Elite Series 2 controller is that it works with PC as well as Xbox One, and Microsoft has confirmed it will also be compatible with Xbox Series X when that console launches later this year.

Some of the improvements from the first Elite controller include adjustable analog-stick tension, a third trigger stop, and two more customizable control presets, in addition to Bluetooth connectivity and a rechargeable USB-C battery that lasts upwards of 40 hours. The controller's case even comes with a charging dock, giving you the ability to keep your controller covered and safe while it charges.

If you want to take a closer look, check out our Xbox Elite Series 2 controller gallery, which shows the pad up close and goes into detail on its deluge of features.

New Apple iPhone 11 ads show off Slofies on a snowboard

 

Apple premiered two new iPhone 11 ads on Sunday, showing off the Slofie feature in the hands of a pro snowboarder.

Slow motion Selfies, or Slofies, are one of Apple’s newest features on the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro. Capable of capturing slow motion video at 1080p and 120fps, the iPhone can help you get a bit more creative with your selfies.

The first spot is called “Whiteout” and shows a professional snowboarder crashing through a snow drift using the front facing camera’s slow-mode feature.


The second video “Backflip” is the same snowboarder performing a backflip in slow motion.


Apple coined the term “Slofie” and has since used it in all of its marketing. While you might not find yourself on a snowboard or at the other end of a hairdryer, Slofies are a fun, if not silly, capability of the new iPhones.

If you want to try your hand at making Slofies, check out AppleInsider’s iPhone 11 Price Guide to find the best deal.

  Microsoft - Satya Nadella shares his thoughts on achieving more for the world
Posted by: xSicKxBot - 01-20-2020, 01:03 AM - Forum: Windows - No Replies

Satya Nadella shares his thoughts on achieving more for the world

The beginning of a new year and a new decade is a time to reflect, set intentions and move forward with bold ambition.

Leaders everywhere are in the midst of a global conversation about the future of democracy and capitalism — a future interconnected and enmeshed within the context of digital transformation. What does it mean to be a global company contributing to each nation’s local interests? How can our products and tools help solve the most important challenges through the use of digital technologies?

For us, it’s an opportunity to reflect on our company’s purpose and mission: to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more.

Our mission is enduring. It drives who we are and everything we do, emphasizing our passion to empower both the people and the lasting institutions they build.

As we consider the opportunities and the pressing challenges facing the world today — as we work to empower the 7 billion people on the planet — we must recommit to this sense of purpose and mission and redefine what “achieving more” means for the world. Oxford professor Colin Mayer’s definition of the purpose of a corporation is helpful. Mayer writes that the purpose of business is, “producing profitable solutions to problems of people and planet.”

Looking forward, we believe empowerment to achieve more has four interconnected components:

  1. Power broad economic growth through tech intensity
  2. Ensure that this economic growth is inclusive
  3. Build trust in technology and its use
  4. Commit to a sustainable future

1.    Power broad economic growth through tech intensity

In the next decade, broad economic growth will happen if digital technology and software can be applied to empower every person and every organization in every industry, every community and every country.

We live in a world of ubiquitous computing. Consider that there will be 50 billion connected devices by 2030, more than double the number today, and that by 2025, the size of the global datasphere will reach 175 zettabytes, up from 40 zettabytes today. As a platform company, we’re building each layer of the tech stack for this new era. We are building the world’s computer to span the intelligent cloud and the edge; we are creating rich AI supercomputing; and we are making computing more ambient with multi-sense, multi-device experiences.

As people’s lives — including the places we go and the things we interact with — become digitized, they create new opportunities and new breakthroughs: from precision medicine to precision agriculture, from personalized e-commerce to personalized education, from connected manufacturing floors to connected homes. AI is the most transformative technology of our time. And we are focused not only on pushing the frontiers of this technology and building the next generation of data and AI workloads, but also creating new immersive experiences that transcend any single device and help us regain a sense of balance and control in our lives. We think deeply about how to ensure people can determine what is public and what is private and are able to use our technology in order to regain a balance between consuming content and creating it. This increasingly digitized and connected world will create new economic value from the data we generate — more accurate predictions, more personalized services and deeper insights. And it will ensure the digital economy’s growing hunger for data can offer everyone an opportunity to contribute productively and benefit economically.

At Microsoft, we call this dynamic tech intensity: adopting best-in-class digital tools and platforms for the purpose of building new, proprietary products and services. Companies, communities and countries can build their own technology products and services only if they have a skilled workforce to do so. Our own LinkedIn data shows that 60 percent of job openings for developers are outside the tech sector. By mapping every member, company, job and skill, LinkedIn is helping connect workers to economic opportunity in new ways. This broad-based availability of digital skills, jobs and the resulting economy that we look forward to in the coming decade will stand in stark contrast to the economic concentration seen in only a few regions like the West Coast of the United States and the East Coast of China. Every country can achieve independence in this increasingly interdependent world.

2.    Ensure that this economic growth is inclusive

Broad economic growth fails if it is not inclusive. Every country, industry and citizen can prosper by leveraging their comparative advantage and by embracing tech intensity. Platform companies like ours have at their core a business model designed to drive comparative advantage and inclusive growth.

Within every region we operate, I seek out and celebrate the local jobs created by our ecosystem. This local digital ecosystem, in turn, makes it possible for their own region’s small businesses to become more productive, multinationals to become more competitive, the public sector to become more efficient, and health and educational systems to produce greater outcomes.

Inclusive growth requires that we equip everyone with the skills and technology required for the jobs of tomorrow, and to drive renewed productivity growth.

For example, there are more than 800 million people today who need to learn new skills for their jobs. Two-thirds of students today will apply for jobs that do not yet exist. Not only does this skills gap impact prospects for individuals, it has a systemic effect on the ability of companies, industries and communities to realize the full potential of this digital transformation. That is why Microsoft is investing in next-generation education and skills training — creating pathways to 21st century jobs.

Also consider that more than 500 million apps will be created in the next four years to drive transformation and productivity for every organization. To accelerate this, we have to create a new category of developers. We call them citizen developers — equipping domain experts in every sector with tools that are low-code or no-code to create solutions that solve their unique business needs.

Furthermore, there are 2 billion firstline workers in the world. They compose the majority of the global workforce in industries such as hospitality, manufacturing, retail and healthcare. Yet, 77 percent say they don’t have the technology needed to be productive. By equipping them with powerful technologies, such as mixed reality and a platform for collaboration, we are helping these workers acquire new skills and drive productivity for their organizations.

However, we must also enable everyone to participate and thrive in this growing economy.

There are more than 1 billion people around the world living with a disability, and as we celebrate the contributions of people with disabilities in the workplace, we must also build tools and products that reflect the diverse experiences of our customers and employees. It’s why we are prioritizing accessibility in our products and services, building diverse teams and seeking input from the accessibility community in the development process.

Access to high-speed internet is fundamental in an increasingly digital and connected world, and something many living in urban areas take for granted. We are working to bridge this divide, with Microsoft’s Airband Initiative, a five-year commitment to bring broadband access to 3 million people in unserved rural communities in the United States by July 2022.

Finally, we also must ensure that we support the success of our own communities, including the many people who work with Microsoft as vendors. We know that the health, well-being and diversity of our own employees contributes to Microsoft’s success, which is why we offer industry-leading benefits. We also know that we rely on the contributions from people working at our suppliers who are also critical to our success. That’s why we require our U.S. suppliers to provide a minimum of 12 weeks paid parental leave as well as paid vacation and sick leave for their employees. And in 2019 we announced a commitment to fund community-based affordable housing in the Puget Sound.

3.     Build trust in technology and its use

At its core, every platform company must earn and sustain the trust of its customers and partners. Without trust, none of this progress is possible. There are three pillars to our approach: privacy, cybersecurity and responsible AI. Across each, our commitment goes beyond words to real actions, providing tools and frameworks for our customers and working collaboratively with the public sector to drive policy change.

The first pillar is privacy. We believe privacy is a fundamental human right. Our approach to privacy and data protection is grounded in our belief that customers own their own data and ensuring any product or service we provide is built with privacy by design from the ground up. Our privacy principles include a commitment to transparency in our privacy practices, offer meaningful privacy choices, and responsibly manage the data we store and process. It’s why we were early supporters of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and why we were the first company to expand GDPR’s core rights to all our customers around the world. To date, more than 26 million people have used these tools and it’s why we will continue to advocate for new privacy laws to ensure customers enjoy the transparency and control they deserve.

The second pillar is cybersecurity — a central challenge in the digital age. Cybercrime affecting businesses, governments and individuals costs more than $1 trillion a year, up from $600 billion in 2018. We analyze more than 6.5 trillion signals each day, and process 630 billion authentications and scan 470 billion emails for malware and phishing each month. This massive signal generates insight that fuels security innovation across our platforms. However, technology is not enough to combat these increasing threats. It also requires partnerships for a heterogenous world — both with governments and industries. We called on the world to borrow a page from history in the form of a Digital Geneva Convention, with a goal of updating international law to protect people from cyberattacks. But as a technology industry, we must work together to create a safer internet. More than 100 global technology and security companies have signed the Cybersecurity Tech Accord, committing to advance online security and resiliency around the world.

Third, we build AI responsibly, taking a principled approach and asking difficult questions, like not what computers can do, but what computers should do? Fairness, reliability and safety, privacy and security, inclusiveness, transparency and accountability are the ethical principles that guide our work and are translated into the software development tools for our developer community.

4.        Commit to a sustainable future

The scientific consensus is clear. The world today is confronted with an urgent carbon crisis. If we don’t curb emissions, and if temperatures continue to climb, science tells us that the results will be devastating.

To address the damaging effects of climate change, each of us must take action — including businesses. No one company can solve this macro challenge alone, but as a global technology company, we have a particular responsibility to do our part.

We are using technology and data to solve global environmental problems and accelerate progress toward a more sustainable future, focusing on the challenges of water, waste ecosystems and carbon in the atmosphere.

It starts with addressing the carbon footprint of our own technology and company. Since 2012, we’ve been carbon neutral across our own operations, imposing an internal carbon tax to drive behavior change. Datacenters that power the cloud are large consumers of electricity. We’ve also significantly expanded our use of renewable energy.

But we know we need to do more and move faster. This week we announced a commitment that by 2030, Microsoft will be carbon negative across our direct emissions and our supply chain. And we will go beyond that: By 2050, we will remove from the environment all of the carbon we’ve emitted directly or by electrical consumption since our company’s founding in 1975.

Solving this problem will also require new technology, and last week we also announced a new $1 billion Climate Innovation Fund to accelerate the development of carbon reduction and removal technologies.

We know that our most important contribution will come not from our own actions, but from empowering our customers around the world. Digital technology will play a critical role in tackling these issues, and we will work to develop and deploy technology that helps our customers reduce their own carbon footprint.

***

As corporations, our purpose and actions must be aligned to help solve the world’s problems, not create new ones. If the previous decade taught us anything, it is that technology built without the considerations outlined above can do far more harm than good.

This is the decade for urgent action. It is time to take bold steps forward to address our most pressing challenges. We know no one company can solve these socioeconomic challenges alone, but together we can make the 2020s the period when we drive broad, inclusive economic growth through technology, built on a foundation of trust and commitment to sustainability. We look forward to collaborating with our customers and partners on this journey. Because each of us must commit to do more, in order for us all to achieve more.

  News - Guardians for Australia
Posted by: xSicKxBot - 01-20-2020, 01:03 AM - Forum: Lounge - No Replies

Guardians for Australia

The bush fires currently ravaging Australia have been devastating. Many people have lost their homes, firefighters are risking their lives daily, and an estimated hundreds of millions of wild animals have fallen victim to the fires. We have created the Guardians for Australia fundraising campaign to support both Australia’s firefighting efforts and the country’s animal rescue and conservation efforts.

Beginning now, the Guardians for Australia fundraising campaign is live on the Bungie Store and Bungie Store EU. As we mentioned last week, we have developed a limited time T-shirt, with an additional in-game emblem code to show support for those in need.

Star Light, Star Bright Emblem

The T-shirt, which comes with an exclusive Destiny 2 “Star Light, Star Bright” emblem redemption code with purchase, will be available for pre-order on the Bungie Store and Bungie Store EU between Thursday, January 16 and Tuesday, February 18 at 9 a.m. Pacific, ending with the weekly reset and the end of Crimson Days.
Half of all profits generated by these T-shirt sales will be donated to NSW Rural Fire Service. The second half will be donated to WIRES, Australia’s largest wildlife rescue organization.
