In the Philippine capital, 85 pesos (US$1.40) is barely enough to buy a meal for one, let alone a family of five. Yet that modest sum, roughly the price of 1½kg of premium imported rice, is the largest single wage increase ever approved for Metro Manila’s minimum-wage earners. The government called it “historic”. Labour groups called it an insult. The increase, to be rolled out in two stages, was confirmed by the Department of Labour and Employment on Tuesday.

Open original transmissionHad 1gbps + static public IP (To avoid CGNAT) Renewed with 2gbps + Static public IP. Youfibre didn't include my static IP so I lost that and ended up back on a 100. address behind CGNAT, breaking my home lab and routing into my environment from outside. Told YouFibre, support. They added it to my contract. But did nothing to provision it. Just ticked the box to charge me and did nothing else. It's now a week on and their support just does not understand. Despite me asking to escalate it to someone who does. Also, one reply per day at midnight. This has been exhausting. For reference. A week later from then readding the add-on to my package, and back and forth on what the issue is, this is what I've received: Hi, Apologies that was an automated nudge, Kindly check if the DHCP is active. If not try the below : Access router interface Open a browser and type the router’s IP (commonly 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1). Log in with your admin credentials (default often admin/admin or printed on the router). Navigate to LAN settings Look for “LAN Setup” or “Network Settings.” Find the DHCP Server option. Check DHCP status Ensure DHCP Server = Enabled. Verify the IP address range (e.g., 192.168.1.100 – 192.168.1.200). Confirm the gateway and DNS settings are correct. Verify active leases Look for a “DHCP Clients” or “Connected Devices” list. This shows which devices have received IPs. Kind regards Redacted YouFibre Customer Services" I had this exact same fuck on when I first signed up a couple years ago. Only back then they didn't even mention that access to public IPs were a thing. Whereas now this is on their website as an option. submitted by /u/YWNBAW12345 [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionI wanted to present xxterm, a cross-platform terminal emulator and SSH session manager I am developing. It became my daily driver, integrating features I loved from various other apps. Mostly a MobaXterm replacement, but with the following differences: Cross platform - Windows, Linux, Mac OS. Free and open source. Doesn't have the bloat / features I never used. Focus on SSH, SFTP, Port forwarding and local terminals. Support for modern terminal features / OSC, built with tmux users in mind (copy paste from tmux panes work without copying the whole screen line, something I could never achieve in MobaXterm). Per-session tunnels with auto-start. Jump hosts (pick a pre-created SSH session as the jump host). 40 themes to choose from. Similarities: Seamless file transfers via SFTP (left side pane opens with each SSH session). Dead session detection / reconnect. Key based and agent based SSH auth Encryption at rest if you choose to save SSH passwords. Session grouping. I'll listen for feedback, please check it out :) submitted by /u/jrm456 [link] [comments]

Open original transmission"Mozilla shut down the well-loved read-it-later Pocket app last year, and now Meta is launching an app called Pocket with an entirely different, AI-focused pitch," writes The Verge. While it's not available for downloads in most locations, Meta's Pocket will allow people "to generate small, interactive apps and games using AI prompts," writes TechCrunch. They're called "gizmos", and Pocket "also offers a scrollable feed where you can play with gizmos others have made." Some context from The Verge: Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is all in on AI as the new social media, and he's previously described a vision of how users could use AI to make interactive experiences and share them with people. The launch of Pocket appears to be one manifestation of that idea... It follows Meta hiring engineers from a company called Atma Sciences Inc., which made an app called Gizmo, as Business Insider reported in March. On a help center page, Meta also describes a gizmo as a "playable AI-generated experience," and when you post one, Meta says you can choose to let other people remix them. "Based on the app's screenshots in Google Play, there are many similarities to Gizmo's original app, which is still listed," notes TechCrunch. "Pocket is another example of Meta's push to make AI creation tools more mainstream, extending its earlier efforts, which included AI-generated images created via its Meta AI app and AI videos created with its app called Vibes. It has also added AI features across its social platforms... " Given that Meta has not officially announced Pocket's debut, it's likely that Pocket is still in its initial experimentation phase. Its counterpart Gizmo, however, had generated 635,000 lifetime installs across both iOS and Google Play, according to Appfigures, which noted it had a 98% positive sentiment.

Open original transmission"Companies spending heavily on AI are growing headcount faster, even in the entry-level roles that many fear are doomed," writes TechCrunch. That's the conclusion of new report tracking AI spending from Ramp's corporate card/bill pay data as well as Revelio Labs' workforce records from 21,599 U.S. firms: According to the report, "high-intensity adopters" — firms that spend on average $30 per employee per month on AI in the first three months — saw headcount increase 10.2%. Headcount also rose across functions, including engineering, sales, administration, customer service, finance, marketing, and scientist roles. The strongest job growth among high-intensity adopters was in the information sector, which includes software, internet, media, and tech-adjacent firms. Despite these positive signals, the data isn't as rosy as it seems. It skews heavily toward tech-forward, knowledge-work firms — ones that might have VC-backing and are growing fast anyway, making it difficult to say whether AI is contributing to the hiring or just showing up at companies that are expanding anyway. "This paper does not show that AI universally creates jobs," the paper's authors admit, "but it does counter claims that AI will lead to broad job losses." It also counters claims that AI is killing all junior jobs. Recent research from Goldman Sachs found that AI has already erased about 16,000 net jobs per month over the past year, with Gen Z and entry-level workers taking the brunt of the burden. But in tech-forward firms, the report finds that entry-level headcount actually rose by 12%... "For software and technology firms, AI can make core output cheaper or faster to produce: writing code, debugging, building internal tools, producing technical documentation, and supporting product development," the report reads. "Lower production costs in these workflows can raise the return to expanding the whole firm, not just the engineering team." But companies that buy subscriptions and run pilots, yet did not go on to make sustained investments, don't tend to see any gains in headcount, per the report. That sets up the potential for a widening gap between firms that have the resources — like capital, technical staff, founder networks, and management bandwidth — to turn AI adoption into actual business gains and those that are stuck experimenting with subscriptions. In other words, this report suggests that firms that already have the resources are the ones that will see the largest gains. CNBC argues another AI "narrative" was challenged this week: that open source can't make money. "The assumption was that giving your model away for free meant no business. That's breaking too, as open-model companies start posting real revenue and enterprises move from renting AI to running their own." Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Open original transmissionMicrosoft is investing $2.5 billion in a new group "assisting clients with AI implementations," reports CNBC: [Microsoft] said Thursday that 6,000 employees will be embedded with clients, in a practice that's become known as forward deployed engineering [or FDE]... The announcement comes two days after cloud rival Amazon said it was putting $1 billion behind an FDE initiative to support fast-paced AI engagements. Leading AI labs Anthropic and OpenAI both established FDE groups in May, partnering with private equity firms, banks and consulting firms. Alongside its technology peers, Microsoft has sunk tens of billions of dollars into building data centers that run generative AI models. Microsoft has also released a variety of AI services, with mixed results. The Microsoft 365 Copilot AI assistant has yet to gain anything approaching ubiquity in the business world, and the GitHub Copilot coding agent has ceded market share to newer players. Microsoft's stock has slumped 21% this year, by far the worst performance among the mega-cap tech companies. One concern on Wall Street is that AI models that quickly compose code might threaten mature software companies... Microsoft has for years provided support and implementation services to customers. The company generated about $2.1 billion in revenue from enterprise and partner services in the March quarter, up 2.5% from a year earlier. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Long-time Slashdot reader BrendaEM writes: Windows does have a lot of useful app (but smaller than "power apps").

My list would have to contain Gimp Tookit versions of: IrfanView image manager, which I think is unequaled in Linux (though it does work to some extent under Wine). I also miss the full version of 7-Zip, because of its better compression settings, which File-Roller does not provide, though the Linux port p7zip is available (though unnoticed by common distributions). Lastly, I think that Notepad++ would be a good addition to Linux. That last one drew some pushback from long-time Slashdot reader jesco.

I feel like "IT Manager" is doing myself a disservice, considering the range of what is required of myself to do in a day, month or year can vary so massively.

Open original transmissionAmerica's Justice Department and FBI teamed joined Finland's National Bureau of Investigation to arrest a teenager they say is part of one of the world's biggest cybercrime syndicates, reports Tom's Hardware. The "Scattered Spider" syndicate has extorted over $100 million in ransom payments, according to Department of Justice figures: 19-year-old Peter Stokes is a dual U.S.-Estonian citizen who was trying to board a flight to Japan from Helsinki, when law enforcement caught up with him. [T]he main criminal complaint against Stokes stems from a May 2025 attack on a luxury jewelry dealer based in the United States. The attackers apparently called the company's IT helpdesk using Google Voice, posing as employees. They were able to convince the help desk into resetting their credentials, which allowed them to infiltrate three accounts, two of which had admin privileges. From there, the group, allegedly including Stokes, stole important data and held the jeweler at ransom, demanding an $8 million payment in crypto. The company ultimately regained access to their infrastructure and avoided paying the ransom, but the operational disruption still caused a purported $2 million in losses. This served as the spark that led to Stokes' eventual arrest in Helsinki, as the prosecutors slowly followed the paper and digital trail laid by the attackers. Microsoft played a key role in the process by providing GDID [Global Device Identifier] data to the FBI to help them apprehend the alleged criminal...

Open original transmissionIf you are trying to test Android Enterprise (EMM / Device Owner provisioning) and cannot find a way to reach the setup stage, you don’t necessarily need a physical device. I spent a long time trying to figure this out and most documentation suggests that only real devices support the full Android Enterprise setup flow, which can be confusing when working with an emulator. However, there is a working method using the Android Studio emulator. When you start a fresh emulator (preferably using a Google APIs or Google Play system image) and scroll up then you will see "Android setup" notification then press that notification, then skip backup after that you will reach the Google sign-in screen. At this point, instead of entering a normal Google account, you can type afw#setup in the email field and press enter. This triggers the Android Enterprise (AFW) provisioning flow inside the emulator. After entering this, the emulator switches into the enterprise setup stage where it can be used for testing EMM enrollment, device owner provisioning, and admin-controlled configurations. This method is useful for developers who are building or testing Android Enterprise solutions without access to physical devices. submitted by /u/murtesa_dev [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionApple will likely "repeat the iPhone X story" by unveiling its foldable iPhone at the same time as the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, but starting foldable iPhone pre-orders at a later date, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. Kuo today said manufacturing challenges have limited early production of the foldable iPhone, which will reportedly be named iPhone Ultra. As a result, he believes the device may launch at some point after the iPhone 18 Pro models. In 2017, Apple unveiled the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X on September 12. iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus pre-orders began just three days later, while iPhone X pre-orders began six weeks later on Friday, October 27. Likewise, Kuo believes the foldable iPhone may not be available to pre-order until the fourth quarter of 2026. Kuo estimated that the foldable iPhone could have a starting price of around $2,299 to $2,499 in the U.S., and he believes that the device "could sell out immediately after pre-orders open, with delivery lead times quickly stretching to 4-6 weeks or longer." Apple's suppliers will ship roughly 7–8 million foldable iPhones in 2026, compared to 20–22 million for the iPhone 18 Pro models combined, he said. If this information proves to be accurate, expect the foldable iPhone to be unveiled in September, but you may not be able to order it until at least October.Related Roundup: iPhone FoldTags: iPhone Ultra, Ming-Chi KuoThis article, "'iPhone Ultra' Likely to 'Repeat the iPhone X Story'" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmission"A story widely accused on social media of being written using AI has gone on to win the overall Commonwealth short story prize," reports the Guardian. In mid-May the story had been selected as a regional winner, but with critics on X and Bluesky "claiming it showed 'obvious markers' of AI use." In the wake of the controversy, the Commonwealth Foundation conducted a review of the regional winners, which it said involved looking at drafts, time-stamped documents and notes. "We are satisfied with the testimonies of our writers and their confirmation that AI was not used in their writing," said foundation director-general Razmi Farook... Judging chair Louise Doughty described Nazir's piece as "an original, poetic and deeply moving story...." In a film released by the Commonwealth Foundation on Tuesday, Nazir... adds that he wrote six or seven drafts of his prize-winning story, and also speaks about his use of speech-to-text software, explaining that he could only see three or four lines of text on his phone screen at any one time, so he would perfect each line before moving on, which is how his story ended up being "highly polished"... Initial social media reactions to the Commonwealth Foundation's announcement of Nazir's win were negative, with one X user writing: "immensely disappointing and disheartening. it feels like they wanted to stick to their guns after the entire GenAI uproar. I might think twice now before submitting my stories here". After Nazir was announced as the regional winner in May, some social media users reported running his story through AI-detection software. "Pangram flags at 100% but also, come on, if you know you know", said Wharton professor Ethan Mollick. However, the reliability of AI-detection software has been called into question. In a statement to the Guardian, Farook said that "rather than surrender our judgment to AI-detection software, we asked our winners to show their working drafts, outlines, the evidence of an artistic journey. That software, it must be said, is not infallible: it returns inconsistent verdicts and, in doing so, corrodes the very trust on which a prize depends." "When the machine's default voice is the metropolitan one, the writer who does not fit the expected mould is the first to fall under suspicion," she added. "The more startling her gift, the more her unfamiliar brilliance unsettles, the more readily she is accused of being a machine. A young writer in Kingston or Kolkata, in Kuala Lumpur or Kigali, must now prove not only her talent but her very humanity." Nazir's story beat 7,806 other stories, the video points out (adding that their prize "demonstrates that in a world increasingly driven by algorithms, the human voice still matters.") The Guardian notes that the winning story "includes multiple 'not x, but y' constructions and lists of three, which some consider to be signs of AI use," and that critics also drew attention to particular lines like "Sun on galvanise is a cruel instrument" and "Marsha lived two bends down." In a new interview with the Times of India Nazir says "Now I'm frightened about publishing new work because the attacks haven't stopped." Q: Which passages attracted the most criticism, and why do you think they were misunderstood? Nazir: People criticised a line where I wrote: 'She had the kind of walking that made benches become men.' That's magical realism. Think Salman Rushdie or Gabriel Garcia Marquez. It's a literary technique. In my story, the character 'Zoongie' believes she is so beautiful that even when no men are around, she imagines the benches becoming men who admire her. It exists only in her imagination. People interpreted it literally. There was another line about light reflecting from a sink. That came directly from my childhood. Our kitchen faced east, and my mother liked to keep everything spotless. We used to polish the sink, and when the morning sun hit it, it glittered brightly. People claimed that the image must have been AI-generated. But it's from my lived experience... I've lived with diabetes for 62 years, which has damaged the nerves in my fingers and feet, and I'm currently undergoing chemotherapy. That's why I began using speech-to-text on my Android phone... I hope this episode leads to a better understanding of the difference between assistive technology and AI-generated writing... Q: Many acclaimed writers like Ursula K Le Guin, Mary Shelley, and JRR Tolkien have also been falsely flagged by AI detectors. Where does this leave writers? Nazir: What these AI detectors are saying is that if a piece of writing is too polished, it must have been written by AI. I refuse to accept that. AI was trained on human writing. Large language models, to me, are tools, much like a word processor. They don't replace the human spirit behind creative writing. Ask an AI to write a prize-winning story on its own and see what it produces. You still need human imagination and judgment to create literature. Nazir added, "What I don't understand is why people continue to question the judges' decision." Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Open original transmission"The internet is filled with fakes," writes Gizmodo. "A court in India is setting out to address the problem by requiring more transparency from domain registrars to make it easier to crack down on fraud. And while the intentions might be good, Reuters is reporting that major American domain registrar GoDaddy is sounding the warning bells that the court's decision could fundamentally reshape the internet well beyond India's borders." GoDaddy argues the move would even make the internet less safe, reports Reuters : [Online fraud] is a key challenge for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government, which last year received 2.4 million complaints of alleged cyber fraud amounting to $2.4 billion. Starting in 2019, lawsuits were brought by dozens of Indian and global firms — Amazon against fake shopping sites trading on its name and McDonald's complaining against bogus sites offering franchises. [More than 20 companies filed a complaint, the article notes, including Microsoft.] In December, an Indian court blocked more than 1,100 such websites. The New Delhi judge however went further, ordering sweeping new measures that tech experts say have rewritten rules of internet governance: Domain sellers should not offer buyers free privacy protection by default, the buyer's details should be released to anyone with a "legitimate interest" within 72 hours, and website addresses that are variations of protected brand names must be prohibited. U.S.-based GoDaddy has challenged the directives before a larger bench of judges at the Delhi High Court, according to a Reuters review of non-public filings. It says the ruling will affect legitimate businesses that have names similar to big brands. Stopping privacy-by-default features, GoDaddy said, will result in public disclosure of name, address, telephone and email of legitimate website owners, exposing them to "foreseeable privacy and security risks" such as stalking and harassment. As domain names operate globally, not locally, the order could force GoDaddy to regulate website addresses across the world, it said. On the court's order imposing a 72-hour deadline on companies to provide registration details to anyone with "legitimate interest", GoDaddy argues it has no wherewithal to assess who has legitimate interest or not. The "commercially destabilising" directives may force domain name companies to "exit India", said one of GoDaddy's appeal documents that ran into 5,121 pages... GoDaddy rivals, Arizona-based Namecheap and Netherlands-based Hosting Concepts, have also challenged the New Delhi ruling, court records show, although Reuters could not ascertain details of their appeals... GoDaddy argues that diluting the privacy feature will run contrary to India's data protection law and the European Union GDPR law which mandates a "privacy by default" approach. Farzaneh Badii, a New York-based researcher on internet governance, criticised the New Delhi ruling, noting that Europe redacted such details because publishing them had been abused by harassment and targeted phishing. "The people exposed will be journalists, activists, small business owners, and private individuals. The brand impersonators will not," she said... While the sweeping December directives were issued by a court, they followed government's submissions, documents showed... The judges will hear the appeals on July 16. GoDaddy manages 80 million domains and serves over 20 million users, the article points out, with annual revenue over $5 billion. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Open original transmissionHello, I have a Windows Server 2022 file server, with multiple volumes, all with Deduplication enabled. These are large volumes on a Dell R740XD2, each volume is about 60TB. I have one 30TB volume (G:) that I was going to use for a new file share, but the volume is no longer required, and I want to instead extend a separate 30TB (F:) volume, to the space this volume currently consumes. Here is my question. The G: drive that is no longer needed has about 10TB of deduplicated data that is already backed up, and located on a different server, I do not need this data. Everything I've read says to never just delete a deduplicated volume, you need to disable de-dupe then un-optimize the data. In this case, I don't need that data, and don't want to un-optomize data that I'm just going to delete anyways. I believe that each volume has it's own de-dupe database and chunk store, but I don't want to mess up anything on those existing volumes either. Sorry for the long question, and I hope it makes sense. Anyone ever face the same issue? Thank you. submitted by /u/Negative_Ad849 [link] [comments]

Open original transmissionI wasn't sure what would be the best sub to post this question, and I apologize in advance if this is not really the right one. My question: I have a personal e-mail account at a major e-mail provider (Proton/SimpleLogin). In the past when I received scam e-mails from a spoofed address I immediately got an automatic warning message that the e-mail was suspect because its header contained erroneous domain settings. However one most recent scam e-mail triggered no such domain errors warning (though it was still automatically routed to the spam folder). The sender e-mail address' domain name belongs to what from first glance appears to be a real company (one offering tourist boat tours). This raised the question for me: can an e-mail sender address nowadays still be spoofed without detectable domain errors in the headers? Or would it be more likely that these scammers have hacked the IT infrastructure of the company itself and are directly using it to send their scam e-mails? submitted by /u/Aqua_Zebra_7253 [link] [comments]

Open original transmission247,000 miles on an EV battery? So says the owner of a U.K.-based used-car sales company that specializes in Evs, who tells the Wall Street Journal EV batteries keep performing well even after several hundred thousand miles. "They are proving themselves to be exceptionally reliable." After five years on the road, the average EV will still be able to drive up to 95% of its original range, according to Recurrent, a data-science company that provides a battery-monitoring tool for EVs — better than many in the auto industry expected... Potential new car buyers' fear of having to pay for a battery replacement is the number one reason they choose to steer clear of EVs, according to a 2025 survey from industry research firm AutoPacific. When early EVs hit the market, buyers' concerns were well-founded. Roughly one in 12 EVs built from 2011 to 2016 have had to have battery replacements. But new data shows that more modern EVs are doing better so far. Among EVs built from 2022 on, 0.3% have had battery replacements, according to a 2025 study from Recurrent. As battery technology has advanced, EVs have avoided problems like the ones that plagued the original Nissan Leaf when it hit the market in 2010, for example. Those cars lacked the battery-cooling technology that is in newer EVs, and they made headlines for wearing down quickly. Buyer perception hasn't quite caught up, according to Scott Case, co-founder and chief executive of Recurrent... The newest battery-powered EVs have lifespans comparable to internal-combustion-engine vehicles, even when driven more miles, according to Viet Nguyen-Tien, a research officer at the London School of Economics who focuses on Evs. Improvements in car batteries' chemical contents, battery-management systems and thermal regulation have been the difference in making batteries last longer and cost less, Nguyen-Tien said. Battery prices have fallen more than 90% since 2010, according to a BloombergNEF report from late last year. Industry analysts say battery-replacement costs are also improving as more EVs are designed for repairability in the long-haul. An out-of-warranty battery replacement can cost anywhere from $5,000 to $16,000, depending on the manufacturer, according to Recurrent. But many EV manufacturers have shifted to allow smaller components of their battery packs to be repaired, which can allow owners to avoid the full costs of a battery replacement, Case said. EV batteries aren't without their challenges, though. A battery that is frequently fast-charged with high power loses its range, on average, at twice the rate of a battery charged at a lower power, according to telematics company Geotab. Frequently charging a battery to 100%, or letting it rest at 0% for extended periods, can also reduce range long-term. And EVs regularly deliver less range in extreme cold or heat. The article also includes two new projections on EV adoption: "The share of new EVs sold is expected to nearly double to 11% of new-car sales in the U.S. by 2030, according to industry consulting firm AlixPartners." "Globally, EVs already make up 15% of new-car sales and are expected to form nearly a quarter of the global market by 2030, according to AlixPartners." Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Open original transmissionCNN reports: Prehistoric human relatives, nicknamed "hobbits" due to their short stature, may have been scavengers, rather than skilled hunters capable of taking down big game or building cooking fires, according to new research. The study adds to growing evidence that Homo floresiensis, which had a brain only slightly bigger than that of a chimpanzee, wasn't as advanced as scientists previously believed.... The researchers believe that much like how Komodo dragons hunt water buffaloes today, they were using their venomous bite to take down Stegodons — and after the scene was clear, Homo floresiensis swept in to cleave meat from what remained... The new study reinforces a long-held suspicion that Homo floresiensis is not a dwarfed form of Homo erectus but a descendant of a more primitive Homo habilis-like or Australopithecus-like form that arrived on the island more than1 million years ago, said Dr. Chris Stringer, a research leader specializing in human origins and paleoanthropology at London's Natural History Museum.

Open original transmissionAn anonymous reader shared this report from TechCrunch: Two hundred and fifty years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence, a new commercial from Google asks: What if the Founding Fathers had access to Google Workspace? With the tagline "Group project, but make it 1776," the ad depicts a largely unseen Thomas Jefferson mid-draft when he gets a nagging text from Ben Franklin, leading to a very Google-centric collaboration process. Edits are suggested in Google Docs, a meeting gets scheduled in Google Calendar and conducted remotely via Google Meet (with every single attendee apparently turning their camera off?), then the whole thing is finalized with e-signatures; cue the fireworks. Of course, since this is an ad from a tech company in the year 2026, AI has a role to play. The fictionalized founders use Google's "help me visualize" AI tool to try out different animals on the national seal, Gemini takes notes on the meeting, and the founders also ask the chatbot for advice before declining King George III's document access request. TechCrunch call it "very tongue-in-cheek," noting that at one point Samuel Adams even asks, "Can we settle this over beers?" And they argue that "the AI evangelism is relatively discreet when compared to many other recent ads." Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Open original transmissionSubsea cables. Ukrainian power stations. Russian oil refineries. Even airports, water-desalination plants and Amazon data centers. They've all become targets in wartime, notes the Wall Street Journal, and around the world now arguments "are already brewing between companies and governments over new regulations and potential costs." In Germany, powerful associations representing private companies and municipal utilities have pushed back against new standards for physical protection, warning they could spell financial ruin. New Zealand's government has faced resistance from industry groups over a proposal to fine critical-infrastructure companies and their directors for cybersecurity breaches... A sign of how lines are blurring: The North Atlantic Treaty Organization's 32 countries last year agreed that as part of a pact to spend 5% of economic output on defense and security, 1.5% would go to military-adjacent needs including protecting critical infrastructure and networks. Spending targets range from cybersecurity and industrial capacity to railroads, bridges and ports needed for military logistics... "We need a wide concept of defense — defense is no longer just military," said Italian Adm. Giuseppe Cavo Dragone, NATO's top military adviser. Adding to the complexity, companies now need to protect the data networks that serve as gateways to critical infrastructure. Hackers increasingly target not just computer files to steal information but also systems managing vital functions like building access and factory control, remotely causing physical damage or enabling espionage. U.S. authorities in April warned that Iranian hackers were trying to disrupt American drinking-water systems by targeting computer equipment that connects hardware with software. A year earlier, suspected Russian hackers remotely manipulated valves on a Norwegian hydroelectric dam... Another challenge will be parsing jurisdictions and liability for assets that cross international waters or are damaged in combat — such as subsea data cables or energy pipelines. Turf battles between law enforcement and militaries are already complicating efforts... "The private owner can invest in redundancy, monitoring, and repair capacity, but only governments and militaries can really deter, patrol, attribute, or respond to hostile state activity," said Marc Glasser, who worked on cybersecurity and infrastructure security for three decades at the U.S. Department of Transportation and the Department of Homeland Security.... Companies say they need greater clarity from governments on what protections they will provide and subsidies to help them defend privately owned assets that provide a public good. Most governments don't provide incentives for companies to invest more than the minimum legal resilience requirements. The article notes that in May the chief executive of California's Port of Long Beach "launched a cyber-defense operations center to thwart tens of thousands of cyberattacks daily, which jeopardize computer systems and all equipment connected to them." The article also points out that the EU adopted new regulations requiring countries to reduce vulnerabilities, and new laws proposed in the U.K. now "seek to increase penalties for subsea sabotage, updating codes that date to when telegraph cables were first laid in the 19th century."

Yesterday while having a smoke break, the guy that mows the ditches around property came over saying he ran over a laptop and handed it to me. It was a Lenovo Thinkpad P14s, so I knew it wasn’t ours, but it clearly looked like it had been through hell. Not sure how long it was there in the ditch, but it still powered on surprisingly. The asset tags were all but thermal scorched and the screen was demolished, but HDMI was still working so I was able to figure out the company it belonged to and return it.

Open original transmissionSouth Carolina's pine forests "have spent centuries hiding a secret as old as America itself," reports CBS News: In August 1780, British and American soldiers clashed there, leading to a terrible defeat for the Continental army [fighting for the 13 colonies rebelling against England]. Battlefield archaeologists Jim Legg and Steve Smith have been studying the site for decades, but recently, they made a shocking discovery: The sandy soil was home to several sets of remains buried in shallow graves. Metal buttons suggested the men had been Continental soldiers, but there was no other identification... About 2,000 Continental soldiers were killed, wounded or captured, and some men never returned home. Their families could only guess at their fates. But Legg and Smith's discovery, paired with an explosion in DNA technology, is changing what's possible. A set of remains, previously known only as 9B, has been identified as John Pumphrey, a young man from Maryland who enlisted in the Continental Army's 7th Maryland Regiment as young as 13... Pumphrey likely marched more than a thousand miles with the regiment. The unit fought in battles with then-Gen. George Washington in New Jersey and Pennsylvania... The Pumphrey family still exists today. The DNA that helped identify Pumphrey's remains came from three women: Pam Donahue, Karen Pumphrey Etchison, and Nancy Pumphrey White... In late June, members of the extended Pumphrey family came together to hear his story and say his name for the first time in centuries. His remains are interred in South Carolina, where he and the other soldiers were discovered, but the tombstone, once marked "Unknown," will soon have his name carved on it.

Open original transmissionAs America began celebrating its 250th birthday Saturday, 842,000 homes reported power outages, notes ABC News. Figures from tracking site PowerOutage showed states in America's Northeast and Midwest were impacted by severe weather and extreme heat. That number, which will fluctuate throughout the day as crews work to restore power, is for households, meaning that the number of people impacted by these outages is likely to be much larger... Millions of Americans, however, will be contending with a heatwave that is blanketing much of the country, including in Philadelphia where the Salute to Independence Semiquincentennial Parade that had been set for Friday was canceled due to the dangerous heat wave, according to Philadelphia ABC station WPVI. Elsewhere, America's Independence Day Parade, which was scheduled for 10:30 a.m. on July 4 in downtown Washington, D.C. was canceled by organizers late Friday evening due to the extreme heat in the District of Columbia... Amtrak announced it will be canceling a number of trains due to heat-related conditions. The outages seemed to last throughout the day, with 790,103 household outages still in effect by 4:30 p.m. EST. Ironically, the power outages hit several American states that were among the country's original 13 freedom-declaring colonies, including New Jersey (143,072 outages), Pennsylvania (40,944 outages), and Virginia (27,392 outages). CNBC adds that America's largest power grid operator said Friday "it was under a federal alert to cut electricity consumption across its territory as it battled generator outages, massive overloading on its transmission lines and a surge in air conditioning use from prolonged sweltering heat." PJM said it told utilities to reduce electricity to customers who are under contract to reduce consumption during emergencies. PJM serves 67 million people in the Mid-Atlantic, South and Washington, D.C., area. Spot wholesale electricity prices in northern Virginia, home to the largest collection of data centers in the world, have surged beyond $2,000 per megawatt hour this week. That compares to about $40 per MWh when PJM is not in distress. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Open original transmissionMicrosoft is apparently shifting its profits to countries with low taxes — and out of countries where they have many more employees and significant sales. Back in 2005 Former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer even said that a low corporate tax rate "is part of the overall advantage of doing business in Ireland," remembers long-time Slashdot reader theodp. (Ballmer added "It would be disingenuous to say otherwise.") But in 2026 the EU now requires a country-by-country compliance report, and the New York Times notes that Microsoft "was most likely the first major U.S. technology company to make a so-called country by country report of its finances to comply..." Like other big companies, Microsoft uses transactions between subsidiaries to shift profits around to reduce its tax bill. The report revealed a consistent pattern: high returns in low-tax jurisdictions and slim margins in higher-tax ones. The report showed the sometimes absurd results. Microsoft said it had generated almost 40 percent of its pretax income in tax-friendly Ireland, where it employed about 3 percent of its global work force. In higher-tax Germany, the largest economy in Europe, Microsoft earned barely half of 1 percent of its global profits, it said. Excluding Ireland, the company said, it generated less than 2 percent of its worldwide pretax earnings in Europe... [In Luxembourg Microsoft said it had $283 million in pretax income with only 34 employees.] [America's] Internal Revenue Service is challenging profit-shifting transactions used by Microsoft, and is seeking back taxes of nearly $29 billion4. The company has said it disagrees with the I.R.S. and said in a securities filing that it "will vigorously contest" the proposed tax bills. This week a Microsoft blog post offered their own "context," arguing that tax is "one important measure of contribution, but it is not the only one. "Our investments, partnerships, infrastructure, and long-term presence in countries around the world also reflect a commitment to helping strengthen the economies and communities where we operate, today and for the future."

Open original transmissionAt the end of 2025, the FSF launched LibrePhone project, which is working to "better understand and reverse-engineer the nonfree blobs used by a great majority of (if not all) system on a chip designs available today." The FSF's summer newsletter shares this update: We started with researching the proprietary files in Android phones supported by the Lineage project, an Android-based volunteer-led mobile phone operating system with much free software already in it. Our current, primary focus is on the radio blobs that control WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC, and cellular communications. The software freedom issues with mobile computing have been around for a long time, with the most challenging issue being the baseband/modem firmware that relies heavily on proprietary software. This creates a technical and legal maze that is nearly impossible to break free from, but that doesn't mean we should ever stop working to create free systems. It certainly doesn't mean we shouldn't liberate the software that we know can be free software. Now, half a year into this project, lead developer Rob Savoye has extracted firmware from over 200 Lineage install packages, processed 85GB of files, and imported the results of these analyses into a PostgreSQL database for cross-device comparison... [M]uch of the software and blobs we need to work through are shared across multiple devices; this means even greater strides for mobile phone freedom... As insurmountable as it may seem at times, every blob we manage to free up will be progress. The FSF has proven time and time again that it can bring the free software philosophy to life, not just by advocating for it, but by making it so. The bulletin also describes how waves of botnets from "aggressive LLM scrapers, vulnerability scanners, poorly optimized CI/CD servers" inspired the FSF to create a new free-as-in-freedom automated monitoring tool: In our efforts to combat the botnets, we optimized several detection rules to ban abusive behavior. We found the upper limit of fail2ban and replaced it with reaction, an efficient alternative with our configuration that uses ipset. We also split several monolithic machines into many separate machines so that when a web service is overwhelmed the other functions of the service do not go down with it... We found quite a few ways to respond to and prevent botnet attacks, but still faced a significant related challenge: communicating when a website or service is down... Uptime Kuma is a human-readable, automated monitoring addition to our systems... You can check out our recently-launched self-hosted Uptime Kuma instance at https://status.fsf.org/. When you see the page, you will also likely say, "Wow! The FSF and GNU sure do run a ton of services!" and you would be right... If you maintain websites and services, and are looking for a simple way to communicate publicly with your users, consider using Uptime Kuma or another free software solution instead of choosing a proprietary monitoring solution." There's also an article on the state of free-as-in-freedom videogame console emulators. Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Open original transmissionThe lower-end iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e will be equipped with 9GB of RAM, up from 8GB in the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17e, according to supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. In a social media post, Kuo said the 1GB increase in RAM will ensure that Apple Intelligence features continue to run smoothly on the pair of devices. The higher-end iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and foldable "iPhone Ultra" will each have the same 12GB of RAM as the iPhone 17 Pro models, added Kuo. Apple is expected to release the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and the iPhone Ultra in September this year, while the iPhone 18, iPhone 18e, and a second-generation iPhone Air will reportedly be released around March 2027. Even with an increased 9GB of RAM, two new Apple Intelligence features coming with iOS 27 will not be available on the iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e, including the ability to customize the expressiveness and pace of Siri's voice and a "major boost in accuracy" for speech-to-text dictation. This is because the latest advanced on-device Apple Intelligence model powering those two features requires a minimum of 12GB of RAM. Here are the confirmed RAM amounts for the iPhone 17 series:iPhone 17e: 8GB iPhone 17: 8GB iPhone 17 Pro: 12GB iPhone 17 Pro Max: 12GBThe rumored RAM amounts for the iPhone 18 series and iPhone Ultra:iPhone 18e: 9GB iPhone 18: 9GB iPhone 18 Pro: 12GB iPhone 18 Pro Max: 12GB iPhone Ultra: 12GBThe second-generation iPhone Air will presumably have 12GB of RAM, too. RAM and NAND storage chips are currently expensive due to a supply shortage, resulting in Apple raising prices on more than a dozen products last month. For now, iPhones avoided price increases, but analysts have estimated that the iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e could cost $100 to $200 more than the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17e.Related Roundups: iOS 27, iPadOS 27, iPhone 18Related Forum: iPhoneThis article, "iPhone 18 With 9GB RAM Still Won't Support Two New iOS 27 Features" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionOn this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we discuss the latest leaks and rumors surrounding the iPhone 18 Pro. Subscribe to The MacRumors Show YouTube channel for more videos Tata Electronics, one of Apple's manufacturing partners in India, was hit by a ransomware attack that resulted in more than 200,000 internal files being posted online, including component lists, supplier data, and images of iPhone 18 Pro test units. The material was obtained illegally, and MacRumors has not seen the stolen files directly. Among the leak's more surprising details is that the C2 modem may be limited to international models, succeeding the C1 and C1X modems already used in the iPhone Air, iPhone 17e, and M5 iPad Pro. A bill of materials for the U.S. variant instead lists Qualcomm components, including the SDX80M and other parts associated with mmWave 5G, a feature Apple's C-series modems still lack. U.S. carriers have spent years building out mmWave networks, making it a harder feature to drop from the Pro lineup than it was from the iPad Pro or a rumored cellular MacBook. The leak also lined up with existing rumors of a more uniform rear finish than the iPhone 17 Pro's two-tone design and camera lenses that protrude further from the plateau. Separately, a leaked SIM tray offered another look at the rumored Dark Cherry color option, expected to join Light Blue, Dark Gray, and Silver as this year's lineup, with no black model. On the camera side, the rumored variable aperture main camera is this year's headline upgrade, though it's unclear how much of a real-world difference it will make compared to genuinely transformative jumps in past generations, like the 8x telephoto lens introduced on the iPhone 17 Pro or the and 48-megapixel sensor from the iPhone 14 Pro. Pricing looms over rumors about the device. Apple has now raised prices across much of its lineup, citing a global memory chip shortage driven largely by AI data center demand. The Apple TV and HomePod price hikes drew particular criticism, since both products are several years old with no accompanying hardware changes. Estimates for the iPhone 18 Pro itself point to a starting price as high as $1,399, up from $1,099 for the iPhone 17 Pro, an increase weighed against a modest RAM and battery bump, a smaller Dynamic Island, and a more capable N2 chip. A rumored 5G-via-satellite feature will likely offer limited access to specific services like Siri or Maps rather than full Safari browsing. Micron's chief business officer suggested that Apple's own aggressive supplier negotiating tactics may have contributed to the memory shortage now driving prices up industry-wide.

Open original transmissionThe Apple Watch Series 12 could ship with a new health sensor built directly into one of its bands, according to a sketchy rumor from a known leaker. The leaker known as "Kosutami" says the sensor will be injection-molded into a silicone band, and only a silicone band, apparently because Apple has not yet solved how to embed similar hardware in bands made from other materials. No detail was given on what the sensor is actually meant to measure. [Censo-Wat]ch Series 12 gonna have a sensor on band, injection molded(to the silicon band, they hasn't yet figured out how to putting a sensor on band with other materials now.).— Kosutami (@Kosutami_Ito) July 3, 2026 This is not the first time band-based sensing has been floated for Apple Watch, and the idea has reappeared repeatedly over the years, mainly as a result of Apple's patent filings. Back in 2017, a patent for modular band links that could each house a different function emerged, including blood pressure monitors and sweat sensors, followed later that year by a self-adjusting band patent that Apple said could also improve the accuracy of onboard biometric sensors by ensuring a snugger fit. In 2019, a batch of smart band patents covered skin-texture authentication and other embedded functionality, and in 2021 a dedicated hydration sensor patent proposed the use of electrodes against the skin to measure electrolyte concentration in sweat. None of that patent activity has led to a shipping product so far, and Apple routinely files patents for concepts that never reach customers. Kosutami's credibility as a source is mixed. While Apple has clearly researched adding sensors to Apple Watch bands extensively, the rumor is new, uncorroborated, and should be taken with a heavy pinch of salt for now. The Apple Watch Series 12 is likely to be a minor upgrade featuring a new chip and little else is known about the device. It's expected to launch this fall alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and Apple's first foldable iPhone, continuing to use the same design introduced with the Series 10.Related Roundup: Apple Watch 11Tag: KosutamiBuyer's Guide: Apple Watch (Caution)This article, "Sketchy Rumor Claims Apple Watch Series 12 Could Introduce Sensor in Band" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionThe second iOS 27 developer beta seemingly hints at a new Apple product, according to code uncovered by app designer and developer Sam Henri Gold. The code mentions a product codenamed B790 that can relay "two images from cameras on either side of [a] user's head." Gold speculated that the code could be referring to Apple's rumored smart glasses, but a more likely possibility is AirPods with cameras, which are reportedly further along in development compared to the glasses. AirPods Pro 3 were codenamed B788, while the smart glasses are reportedly codenamed N50. Apple is rumored to be working on both "AirPods Ultra" and smart glasses with cameras, and Visual Intelligence is expected to be a core feature of these products. While wearing the camera-equipped AirPods or glasses, you would be able to look at something such as a house plant and have Siri provide you with information about it. Visual Intelligence is already available on the iPhone 15 Pro and newer. On iOS 27, the feature is accessible through the Camera app via a new "Siri" mode. The code appears to instruct Visual Intelligence on how to function on the mystery device. It says the feature works with landmarks, text, and known objects, with the Eiffel Tower in Paris and a coffee mug cited as two examples. /System/Library/AssetsV2/com_apple_MobileAsset_UAF_IF_PlannerOverrides/purpose_auto/9aaa6a204118137235983cc3f1eecae8a125c550.asset/AssetData/PCC/system_prompt_metadata/system_prompt.json seems to hint at some smart glasses codenamed B790 pic.twitter.com/IEmbfleth4— sam henri gold (@samhenrigold) July 3, 2026 The code does not reveal much else, but it serves as yet another indication that Apple is actively developing more camera-equipped wearables.

Open original transmissionApple will release iOS 27 in September, and despite the company's focus this year on refining its flagship operating system and nixing bugs, there are still many additional features on the way, not least of which is Apple's new context-aware Siri, re-tooled for the generative AI era. This year's major iPhone software update isn't all about AI, though, as the following feature list testifies. iOS 27 remains in developer beta, while a public beta is expected to arrive this month. Extend Your Photos and Lock Screen Wallpaper A new wallpaper extension feature in iOS 27 uses Apple Intelligence to automatically expand a photo beyond its original boundaries so it fills the entire Lock Screen more naturally. If a photo is cropped too tightly, doesn't match your iPhone's aspect ratio, or it leaves empty space when positioned on the Lock Screen, iOS 27 can generate additional image content around the edges with the "Extend" option. It will analyze the existing image and create matching background details that blend with the original photo, so there's no need for aggressive cropping. The Extend option can also be found in the Photos app. Organize Your Safari Tabs Safari uses Apple Intelligence to automatically organize your open tabs into related topics, making them easier to browse and manage. For example, if you're shopping for a new refrigerator while planning a vacation, Safari groups tabs for each activity into separate topic-based collections. You can enable this feature by opening Tab View, tapping the three-line icon in the top-right corner, and turning on Automatically Create Topics. Use Natural Language for Reminder and Calendar Entries In the Reminders app, you can now create reminders using natural language, and Apple Intelligence will automatically fill in details such as the date, time, and location. For example, if you type "Pick up Dad at 6 p.m. tonight" or "Send the photos to Eric tomorrow at 3 p.m.," Reminders extracts the relevant information and adds it to the reminder automatically. The Calendar app also supports natural language input, identifying people, dates, and locations as you type. You can then tap the suggested information to quickly add it to your event. Inline Reply to Messages From Android Users In the Messages app, you can now long press on a specific message from an Android user (a green chat bubble) and get an option to reply to it. That contrasts with iOS 26, where inline replies are limited to blue bubbles sent over Apple's iMessage platform. Upgrade Your Wallet Passes Apple has expanded the redesigned pass experience in the Wallet app with iOS 27, bringing the enhanced design introduced for airline boarding passes in iOS 26 to additional pass types. Membership, gift, loyalty, and rewards cards can now use a new Poster Generic layout with a background image, a logo, customizable header and footer fields, main information, and an optional barcode. Passes can also include up to two quick actions at the bottom, such as getting directions to a venue or checking a rewards points balance. Describe Your Next Shortcut Apple Intelligence makes creating shortcuts much more accessible by letting you build them with natural language. Tapping New Shortcut in the Shortcuts app opens a Describe a Shortcut interface, where you simply explain what you want the shortcut to do. You can describe a single action or a more complex automation, and Apple Intelligence selects the appropriate actions and assembles the shortcut automatically. For example, you could create a shortcut that sets tomorrow's alarm based on your first Calendar event, enables Sleep Focus, and dims the bedroom lights each evening, or one that displays your first meeting, the weather, and today's reminders every morning. Like existing shortcuts, these automations can be triggered by factors such as the time of day, your location, app activity, system events like taking a screenshot, incoming notifications, and more. Get a Better Flyover of Your City Apple is enhancing the Flyover feature in Maps with iOS 27, using Apple Intelligence models to improve aerial imagery with greater texture and sharper detail. Trees, buildings, and other landmarks appear more realistic, with more accurate geometry and improved lighting effects. According to Apple, the update makes select cities around the world look more lifelike, from the shape of individual trees to the way light reflects off glass skyscrapers. Flyover already offers detailed 3D views of landmarks, roads, parks, and buildings in more than 350 cities, so iOS 27 is essentially using AI to further improve the quality of those visualizations. Ask Siri What Your Camera Sees The iOS 27 Camera app has a new "Siri" mode that is available in addition to the video, photo, and other camera modes. The new mode uses Visual Intelligence to identify objects in the frame and provide information about them. It can be used to identify plants, animals, food, and more. If it's food you want info on, for example, it can tell you what it is, and how many calories are in it. Other examples Siri mode can be used for include capturing a photo of an event flyer and adding a date to the Calendar app, text translation, splitting a bill, and more. Make Your Lock Screen Clock More Compact A new compact clock mode is available as a new Lock Screen layout option in iOS 27. Found in the top-right corner of the Font & Color panel, the option moves the time from its traditional large, centered position to a much smaller format alongside the date and widgets at the top of the screen. It's a nice option to have if you like a cleaner Lock Screen look that shows off your wallpaper more fully, and it's the complete opposite effect introduced in iOS 26 that stretches the clock down the screen. Generate Photo-realistic Images with Image Playground Apple's Image Playground has been a bit of an embarrassment up until now, being limited to cutesy re-renderings of actual photos and sketched illustrations. But the app gets a major update in iOS 27. Powered by a new generative model that runs on Private Cloud Compute, it can produce high-quality images in virtually any style, including photo-realistic output for the first time. All generated images automatically carry a hidden SynthID watermark to identify them as AI-generated. The app now also supports photo-based editing in addition to creation. Tweak Liquid Glass Opacity If Apple's Liquid Glass UI embrace in iOS 26 wasn't your thing, there's a way to tone it down. In iOS 27, Apple added a full Liquid Glass slider under Settings ➝ Appearance ➝ Liquid Glass. It changes the translucency of Liquid Glass elements, and you can choose a clear version of Liquid Glass that allows some of the background to show through, select a more opaque, tinted version that improves the legibility of text, or choose something in between. Create a Slideshow from Any Album In iOS 27, you can create a slideshow from any album, collection, or selection of photos in the Photos app, rather than being limited to Memories. Open an album or select multiple photos, tap the menu button in the top-right corner, and choose Start Slideshow. Slideshows can be customized with different transition styles, slide durations, and background music, and then saved as a video or shared directly to social media.Related Roundups: iOS 27, iPadOS 27This article, "12 New Things Your iPhone Can Do in iOS 27" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionFör åtta år sedan ansåg EU-kommissionen att Google missbrukat sin dominerande ställning när företaget krävde att Chrome skulle vara förinstallerad på alla mobiltelefoner som kör Android. Efter ett antal överklaganden står det nu klart att Google inte har något annat val än att betala böterna på 4,125 miljarder euro, vilket motsvarar 45,54 miljarder svenska kronor. – Denna dom tar inte hänsyn till vår betydande investering för att säkerställa att Android förblir öppet, interoperabelt och fritt. I vilket fall som helst anpassade vi våra avtal för att följa det ursprungliga beslutet från 2018 och vi fortsätter att fokusera på fortsatt innovation och öppenhet för våra användare, partners och utvecklare, säger en talesperson för Google i ett uttalande som citeras av Bleeping Computer.

Open original transmissionDevelopment of Apple's rumored camera-equipped AirPods Pro has been halted, according to the leaker and prototype collector known as "Kosutami." In a blunt post on X referencing a June post about the product "case" being "concluded," the leaker appeared to be correcting it to say that the project has been "suspended." No other details were provided. The claim comes as quite a surprise, given that Bloomberg reported in May that the camera-equipped AirPods Pro were nearing completion and had reached an "advanced" testing stage, suggesting early mass production could be imminent. That said, the same report also noted that Apple could also opt to wait to launch the AirPods if it was not satisfied with the quality of the Visual Intelligence features in development for Siri. The AirPods Pro's built-in cameras are said to feed visual information about the wearer's surroundings to Siri. The cameras would not be for taking photos or videos, but used solely for AI purposes. "Kosutami" claimed in February that the infrared cameras will allow for the AirPods Pro to be "connected with Apple Intelligence," and other reliable sources have since corroborated that claim. The new AirPods have been in development for around four years. Apple reportedly wanted to start selling the camera-equipped AirPods Pro in the first half of 2026, but the product's launch was held back because the smarter, AI version of Siri was still being developed – it exists in the current iOS 27 beta, but it won't be widely available until the release of iOS 27 in September. Bloomberg said Apple was expecting strong demand for the new AirPods Pro and had operations teams working to secure components for a launch in challenging circumstances, owing to the industry-wide shortage of memory chips and other silicon. It's not clear whether this is the reason behind Kosutami's claim that the project has been suspended. Kosutami is best known as a collector of prototype Apple hardware, but they have occasionally shared accurate information about Apple's future product plans. For example, around 10 months before the iPhone 16 Pro launched, they correctly revealed that it would feature a metal-enclosed battery. They also provided an early look at an Apple Watch band made from Apple's controversial FineWoven material. However, Kosutami incorrectly claimed that AirPods Pro 3 were imminent in August 2024.Related Roundup: AirPods Pro 3Tag: KosutamiBuyer's Guide: AirPods Pro (Neutral)Related Forum: AirPodsThis article, "Camera-Equipped AirPods Pro Development 'Suspended,' Leaker Claims" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionEarlier this year, three YouTube channels sued Apple, alleging that the company violated the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) by unlawfully accessing and scraping millions of copyrighted YouTube videos to train its AI models. In a class action lawsuit filed with the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California in April, the owners of the YouTube channels h3h3Productions, MrShortGame Golf, and Golfholics alleged that Apple "deliberately circumvented" YouTube's protections against video scraping and "profited substantially" by doing so. Apple's actions were "not only unlawful, but an unconscionable attack on the community of content creators whose content is used to fuel the multi-trillion-dollar generative AI industry without any compensation," the complaint alleged. h3h3Productions is a well-known YouTube channel created by Ethan Klein and Hila Klein, and they later created the H3 Podcast. Their channels have millions of followers, while MrShortGame Golf and Golfholics have hundreds of thousands of followers. The channels filed equivalent lawsuits against Meta, Nvidia, ByteDance, and Snap. Apple Responds Apple responded to the lawsuit this week, according to a court document viewed by MacRumors. In short, Apple said the plaintiffs made the videos publicly available on YouTube and that it was permitted to access the videos under the DMCA. Apple said YouTube's Terms of Service likewise permitted the company to access the videos. "Plaintiffs allege that they posted audiovisual works to YouTube, and that any member of the public can see them there," reads Apple's response. "No password. No payment. No lock. No key. Allegedly, YouTube employs technological measures to prevent unauthorized downloading. But because YouTube provides public access to the videos, the alleged technological measures do not control access to the works, as § 1201(a) requires." Apple said the plaintiffs have ultimately failed to state a claim, and it requested that the court dismiss the lawsuit as a result.Tags: Apple Lawsuits, YouTubeThis article, "Apple Responds to Lawsuit Filed by Three YouTube Channels" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionJon Prosser today responded to Apple's lawsuit over iOS 26 leaks, with the YouTuber placing much of the blame on his acquaintance Michael Ramacciotti. As a refresher, Apple sued Prosser and Ramacciotti in July 2025 over alleged theft of the company's trade secrets. Apple alleged that the duo coordinated to break into former Apple software engineer Ethan Lipnik's development iPhone, in order to access and profit off details about "iOS 19," which ended up being called iOS 26. Last year, Prosser leaked several details about "iOS 19" in videos shared on his YouTube channel Front Page Tech, several months before Apple announced the update at WWDC 2025. Later, an anonymous tipster informed Apple that the information was allegedly sourced from Lipnik's iPhone, which prompted the company to investigate. Apple ultimately fired Lipnik and sued Prosser and Ramacciotti. In a court document obtained by MacRumors, Prosser admitted to and denied many of Apple's claims, with some of the key ones summarized below:Prosser denied that he planned or participated in any conspiracy or coordinated scheme with Ramacciotti for the purpose of injuring Apple. Prosser admitted that he participated in a FaceTime video call with Ramacciotti, wherein Prosser was shown certain "iOS 19" features and apps running on the development iPhone. Prosser denied that any of the information he viewed contained trade secrets. Prosser denied knowing that the development iPhone belonged to Lipnik. Prosser denied that he is in possession of any further confidential Apple information.Prosser placed much of the blame on Ramacciotti. In the response, Prosser's attorney said that Ramacciotti's act of displaying the iOS 19 features on the FaceTime call was not induced by Prosser and, as such, Ramacciotti is "completely responsible" for the disclosure of Apple's alleged trade secrets, if any. Prosser's attorney said Ramacciotti is responsible for all harm caused to Prosser. Unfortunately, the attorney made several typos throughout the document, including writing that Prosser has "not knowledge" if iOS 19 was "unreleased." Another typo made was "Prosser Michael Ramacciotti" in the paragraph below:Prosser denies that he planned or participated in any conspiracy or coordinated scheme with Prosser Michael Ramacciotti ("Ramacciotti") for the purpose of injuring Apple. Any payments by Prosser were after the fact of the alleged theft by the former Apple employee, Michael Ramacciotti.The case is before the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. Prosser has requested a jury trial on all issues so triable by a jury.Related Roundups: iOS 26, iPadOS 26Tags: Jon Prosser, Apple LawsuitsRelated Forum: iOS 26This article, "YouTuber Jon Prosser Responds to Apple's Lawsuit Over iOS 26 Leaks" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionAfter last week's craziness around Apple's major price hikes, things returned to a bit more of a normal flow this week, with the rumor mill offering up tidbits about the long-rumored touchscreen MacBook, the iPhone 18 lineup, and more. This week also saw minor updates for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS that included a surprising number of security fixes, while a cyberattack at an Apple manufacturing partner has the company concerned about leaked confidential information, so read on below for all the details! Top Stories Apple's OLED 'MacBook Ultra' Will Stick With M5 Pro and M5 Max Chips Last week, Bloomberg reported that Apple will be accelerating development of its M7 family of chips to deliver greater AI-focused capabilities sooner, but it also means Apple will not be releasing M6 Pro and M6 Max chips. That revelation left open the question of which chips Apple is planning on using in its highly anticipated touchscreen "MacBook Ultra" rumored for release late this year or early next year, and Bloomberg now says Apple will be using M5 Pro and M5 Max chips for that product. The news is likely to disappoint some who have been waiting for the new high-end MacBook, considering the M5 Pro and M5 Max have been used in the current MacBook Pro models since March, so the chips could be approaching a year old by the time the MacBook Ultra debuts. For more details on what we're expecting to see in the MacBook Ultra, be sure to check out our guide and recent video overview. As for the base MacBook Pro currently powered by the regular M5 chip, Bloomberg says there is an M6 model coming late this year, with a redesigned M7 model matching the upcoming MacBook Ultra to follow relatively soon after in the first half of 2027. 2027 iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e to Get 9GB RAM and A20 Chip The lower-end iPhone 18 models set to launch in spring 2027 will feature 9GB DRAM, up from 8GB, according to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. By lower-end iPhones, Kuo is likely referencing the iPhone 18 and the iPhone 18e, both of which are rumored to be coming around March or April of 2027. The report is a bit of a surprise given previous rumors have indicated that at least the iPhone 18 would include 12GB of RAM, and a couple of iOS 27 features unveiled at WWDC last month are only available on iPhone and iPad devices with at least 12GB of RAM. Apple 'Concerned' Over iPhone 18 Pro Data Leak From Supplier Tata In late June, it was revealed that Apple manufacturing partner Tata had been the target of a cyberattack that resulted in confidential documents from Apple and other companies being leaked on the dark web. Apple is unsurprisingly "concerned" about the leak from its Indian manufacturing partner, as the files include detailed information about parts and suppliers for the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. Some details from the files have been circulating, including a few images and videos, though it appears Apple may be trying to crack down on distribution of the confidential content. iPhone 18 Pro is Just a Few Months Away With These 10 New Features Even aside from the Tata leak, a lot of information is already known about the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, which are expected to debut in September, so be sure to check out our overview. Among the most recent leaks are an alleged SIM tray in a dark cherry color that has been rumored for the device, and an alleged diagram of the device's logic board showing a new layout for the A20 Pro chip with the RAM sitting next to the main processor rather than on top of it. Potential buyers should also be prepared for the possibility of a price shock, considering Apple's recent price increases across its iPad and Mac lineups. One market intelligence firm believes Apple could raise prices by up to $200 compared to the current iPhone 17 Pro lineup. Apple Releases iOS 26.5.2 With Security Fixes Apple this week released 26.5.2 updates for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS Tahoe, delivering fixes for more than 25 security vulnerabilities. Apple says that it used the releases to deliver the included security fixes sooner than originally planned, as the company seeks to speed up fixes in an age where AI has made it easier and faster to exploit disclosed vulnerabilities. Apple Acquires Award-Winning App 'Play' In February, Apple notified the European Commission that it would be acquiring certain assets from and have the right to hire certain employees from Rabbit 3 Times, the company behind the award-winning app design tool Play. The notification was published on the European Commission's website this week, following a four-month waiting period. Play was a Mac and iPhone app that allowed designers to prototype iPhone app interfaces using Apple's SwiftUI frameworks, and then send them to Xcode. In 2025, the app won an Apple Design Award for innovation, but it is no longer available in the App Store and it is unclear what Apple's plans are for the intellectual property associated with it.

Open original transmissionApple previously announced that the first iOS 27 public beta would be released in July, meaning that it should be available at some point this month. Below, we have outlined how to get ready for the iOS 27 public beta, which will likely follow the third or fourth iOS 27 developer beta. Release Date History The first public betas of iOS 16 through iOS 26 came out between July 11 and July 24. iOS 26 Public Beta: Thursday, July 24, 2025 iOS 18 Public Beta: Monday, July 15, 2024 iOS 17 Public Beta: Wednesday, July 12, 2023 iOS 16 Public Beta: Monday, July 11, 2022 Get Ready Once it is available, anyone will be able to install the iOS 27 public beta on a compatible iPhone for free by following the steps outlined below. Sign up at beta.apple.com for free. Open your iPhone's Settings app and tap General → Software Update → Beta Updates. Select the iOS 27 Public Beta option (restart your iPhone if you don't see it) and follow the on-screen steps.If you are impatient, anyone can install the iOS 27 developer beta for free right now. Warning: While the first public beta is usually more stable than the first developer beta, iOS betas often have bugs and performance issues. You may not be able to use some apps that you rely on, and issues can extend to CarPlay. Backing up your iPhone before installing beta software is highly recommended, and relying on a secondary iPhone altogether is always a good idea if possible. iOS 27 is compatible with the iPhone 11 and newer, but Apple Intelligence features like Siri AI are limited to the iPhone 15 Pro and newer. Keep in mind that the revamped version of Siri has a waitlist. To join the waitlist, open the Settings app on iOS 27 and tap on Siri and you will find it there. In some cases, it can take a few weeks to receive access to Siri AI and the Siri app. Beyond the new Siri, iOS 27 features Liquid Glass design enhancements, performance improvements, expanded child safety features, and more.Related Roundups: iOS 27, iPadOS 27This article, "iOS 27 Public Beta Available This Month, Here's How to Get Your iPhone Ready Now" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionStolen data from Apple manufacturing partner Tata Electronics appears to reveal that the iPhone 18 Pro will use different modem chips depending on the market it is sold in, with U.S. models retaining Qualcomm hardware while international models will feature Apple's in-house C2 modem. The finding emerged from a wide-ranging cyberattack on Tata, which alongside Foxconn assembles the iPhone. More than 630GB of confidential data was stolen by a ransomware group calling itself "World Leaks" and has been circulating online. The material was obtained illegally and MacRumors has not seen the stolen files directly. AppleInsider conducted an analysis of the stolen files and said it could confirm the authenticity of several key documents. Among the information that has attracted particular is a bill of materials apparently related to the U.S. variant of the iPhone 18 Pro, which lists multiple Qualcomm components rather than Apple's C2 modem, codenamed Ganymede. The Qualcomm parts referenced include the SDX80M, SDR875, QDM8771, QDM8720, PMK75, PMX75, and QET7100A, components associated with mmWave 5G support. International iPhone 18 Pro models, by contrast, are said to use the "C2," which would succeed the C1 and C1X modems currently found in the iPhone Air, iPhone 17e, and M5 iPad Pro. The implication, as AppleInsider notes, is that the C2 still lacks mmWave capability, and that Apple is once again relying on Qualcomm to fill that gap for American carriers. mmWave is the ultra-high-frequency band of 5G offered primarily by Verizon, delivering very fast download speeds over short distances. Apple's C1 and C1X modems are widely regarded as more power efficient than their Qualcomm counterparts, meaning U.S. iPhone 18 Pro buyers may see somewhat worse battery life than those purchasing the same device elsewhere. Daring Fireball's John Gruber offered analysis of the practical tradeoffs involved. While 5G outpaced LTE in his tests, Gruber argued the difference has no meaningful impact on how the phone actually feels to use: Having a phone that can pull 320 Mbps down over cellular is like having a car that can go 320 MPH — an interesting technical feat, but of no practical value to me whatsoever. I never feel like I'm waiting for anything to load because I'm on LTE. LTE is fast enough, and regular 5G is more than fast enough. 5G mmWave is simply a waste of battery life as far as I'm concerned. On why Apple would not simply deploy the C2 everywhere rather than retaining Qualcomm for the U.S. market, Gruber pointed the finger squarely at carrier economics: Faster-than-you-practically-need download speeds are a carrier bragging point. Longer battery life and plenty-fast-enough download speeds are an Apple bragging point. Verizon — and to a lesser extent, AT&T — spent a fortune building out mmWave networks. They don't want to sell flagship phones that don't support them. Apple's flagship iPhones have supported those networks since 2020. If Zivkovic's analysis of this stolen data from Tata is correct, and Apple is going to use Qualcomm's modems only in iPhone 18 Pro models sold in the U.S., I think the reason why is Verizon and AT&T bragging points, not any practical user benefit. And the result may be that U.S. iPhone 18 Pro models get somewhat worse battery life than those in the rest of the world. The C2 modem has been a rumored feature of the iPhone 18 Pro for years as part of Apple's broader effort to reduce its reliance on Qualcomm. A split deployment, with the C2 handling most of the world while Qualcomm covers the U.S., would represent a significant step in that direction even if it falls short of a complete transition. The iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max are expected to launch in the fall alongside the first foldable iPhone.Related Roundup: iPhone 18 ProThis article, "iPhone 18 Pro Could Use Qualcomm Modem in the US and C2 Elsewhere" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums

Open original transmissionThreat actors are integrating AI into their exploit chains, accelerating reconnaissance, automating vulnerability discovery, and scaling social engineering in ways that compress the timeline between initial access and impact. The barrier to sophisticated offensive operations is dropping fast.Rapid7's Red Team is doing the same. Over the past year we formalized our approach into a structured multi-agent system that follows our penetration testing methodology end-to-end from scoping an engagement to validating findings to generating reports. We built it as a production system, not a proof of concept, and the process of designing and operating it taught us as much about defending against AI-enhanced attacks as it did about conducting them.The system also proved its value as part of Anthropic's Project Glasswing initiative. Glasswing is a program that gives leading security companies early access to frontier cyber models before they reach wider availability, enabling security research that stays ahead of malicious adoption. We infused our red team architecture with Claude Mythos, applying it across penetration testing, vulnerability research, and red team operations. The combination of our formalized multi-agent architecture with a frontier-class model produced exceptional results in vulnerability analysis and exploit chain development. This validated both the architecture's design and the importance of getting these capabilities into defenders' hands first.This post covers the architecture, the key design decisions, and what we learned along the way.Why Rapid7's Red Team built a multi-agent systemPenetration testing is labor-intensive by nature as a significant portion of any engagement is spent on structured, repeatable work like enumerating attack surfaces, tracing data flows through source code, checking security headers, documenting findings in a consistent format. The actual judgement — deciding what to test next, assessing exploitability, understanding business impact — remains deeply human.The opportunity was straightforward: offload the mechanical work to AI agents while maintaining human insight at decision points where it matters most. Those decision points are where engagements succeed or fail: scoping what's in and out of bounds, choosing which attack paths to pursue based on business context, assessing whether a vulnerability is genuinely exploitable in a given environment, deciding when a finding is significant enough to escalate, and interpreting results in ways that translate to actionable risks. None of that is mechanical, it requires experience, judgement, and context that models routinely get wrong. And as an internal security team, we don't just report vulnerabilities, we're accountable for coverage. If something ships with an exploitable flaw we missed, that's on us. The bar for confidence is high, and that's why humans stay in the loop at every point that matters.We also had a secondary motivation. Building a system that follows a structured offensive methodology gives us direct architectural insight into how AI agents behave in adversarial contexts including the capabilities, the limitations, and the failure modes. That understanding now informs how we assess and secure Rapid7's own AI-powered products.The architecture: Orchestration, not autonomyThe system isn't a single monolithic agent but a team of specialist agents coordinated by an orchestrator that mirrors how human red teams operate. The orchestrator doesn't test anything. It assesses the current state of the engagement, determines what needs to happen next, routes work to the appropriate specialist, and processes the results. Specialist agents handle enumeration, code review, dynamic testing, and reporting.Each with defined inputs, outputs, and constraints.The architectural choice to use supervisor-style orchestration rather than a monolithic agent separates routing decisions from execution. This makes the system more predictable, auditable, and controllable,properties that matter when the agent is operating in sensitive environments.The key design decision that made this work was methodological, not technical. We reverse-engineered the agent's architecture directly from our team's daily task lists. The to-do items our testers tracked during real engagements became the specification: which tasks repeat, in what sequence, where decisions branch, and what triggers a return to an earlier phase. The methodology we'd built over years of engagements became the orchestration logic.Scope decomposition: Giving every target full attentionOne of the earliest lessons we learned was that throwing an entire engagement scope at an AI agent produces shallow, scattered results. LLMs have finite context windows and finite attention. A complex application with dozens of endpoints, multiple authentication flows, and layered business logic overwhelms a single-pass analysis and important details get lost in the noise.The solution was deliberate scope decomposition. Before the agent begins any technical work, the engagement scope is broken into discrete, manageable chunks. The scope includes individual components, feature areas, or functional boundaries. Each chunk flows through the full architecture independently: enumeration, code review, dynamic testing, and reporting. The orchestrator tracks which chunks are complete, which are in progress, and which are queued.This achieves two things. First, it ensures depth over breadth as each component receives the agent's full analytical attention rather than competing for context space with everything else. Second, it creates natural parallelization opportunities and clear progress tracking. A tester can see exactly which areas have been thoroughly assessed and which remain.The principal maps directly to how experienced pentesters already work by breaking the target into logical units, going deep on each one, then synthesizing across them. Making the principal explicit and enforceable in the orchestration logic was the design contribution.Feedback loops: Why linear pipelines failReal penetration tests don't follow a straight line. Code review reveals new endpoints that need enumeration. Dynamic testing uncovers an attack surface that wasn't visible from source alone. Validated findings sometimes expose entirely new subsystems.The agent handles this natively. The orchestrator maintains a routing table with progression gates — criteria that must be met before advancing — and feedback triggers that route the engagement backward when new actionable data emerges. This creates a directed graph with re-entry points, not a waterfall.Guardrails: Maintaining safety in a malicious contextBuilding an AI agent that can hack is relatively straightforward but building one that operates safely within defined boundaries is a challenge. So it was an area where we invested significant design effort.The system uses a tiered safety model:Scope enforcement — every action is validated against the engagement's authorized scope before execution. Out-of-scope discoveries are reported but never probed.Action classification — before execution, every proposed dynamic test is categorized as non-destructive, destructive, or ambiguous. Destructive and ambiguous actions require human approval.Human-in-the-loop by default — in our current deployment, a tester reviews and approves every dynamic test. The agent proposes; the human decides.The system is designed with a path toward semi-automated operation where low-risk, read-only actions execute autonomously while state-modifying operations still require human approval. The decision about where to sit on that spectrum is context-dependent. Internal labs can tolerate more autonomy while client engagements demand more oversight.Token efficiency: Making AI practicalAI agents are expensive to run at scale. Every enumeration step, every code block analyzed, every HTTP request reasoned about will consume tokens. It is a practical concern that shaped several design decisions. The approach was to identify mechanical tasks that don't require LLM reasoning and replace them with deterministic scripts and MCP servers. DNS lookups, header checks, input field probing, and certificate enumeration produce structured data that the agent consumes, but the data collection itself doesn't need intelligence. This reduced token consumption dramatically for enumeration-heavy phases while letting the AI focus its reasoning budget on analysis, correlation, and judgement.Not every step in an AI workflow needs AI. Knowing where to draw that line was the difference between a demo and a production system for us.Securing AI from the inside outThere's a dimension to this work that goes beyond offensive operations. Rapid7 builds AI-powered products. As the internal security team, we're responsible for securing those systems and building a complex multi-agent architecture gave us direct insight into where the weak points live.Designing the orchestrated system taught us exactly how prompt injection can propagate between agents, where trust boundaries blur when one agent's output becomes another's input, how guardrails can be bypassed through indirect manipulation, and what happens when scope enforcement relies on instruction-following rather than programmatic controls.We now test Rapid7's AI features with the same architectural intuition we developed building this system. We know where to look because we've built the same patterns and felt where they flex. When we assess an AI system's safety, we're thinking like the orchestrator — looking for the routing decision that can be subverted, the progression gate that can be skipped, the feedback loop that can be poisoned.Building offensive AI made us materially better at defending the AI we ship to customers.What we learned operating the multi-agent systemA few observations from our team:Methodology is the differentiatorThe LLMs are commodities. The orchestration patterns are emerging in open literature. What makes an AI agent effective at penetration testing is the methodology it follows and that's built from years of institutional knowledge. Formalizing our methodology into explicit, machine-executable logic was the most valuable part of the project.Building AI builds intuition for securing AIThe architectural understanding we developed — trust boundaries, prompt propagation, scope enforcement failures — translates directly into more effective security assessments of production AI systems. This was an unexpected but significant return on the investment.The automation spectrum is context dependentFull autonomy isn't a goal; it's one end of a spectrum. The right level of automation depends on the context.Internal labs, client engagements, and product integrations each have different risk profiles. Designing for the spectrum rather than a fixed endpoint kept the system flexible.What's next for Rapid7 Red Teaming in the age of AIWe're continuing to develop the system, refining the methodology mapping, expanding specialist capabilities, and exploring where purpose-built models could replace general-purpose LLM calls for specific tasks (such as severity classification, report writing, payload selection). We're also using what we learn from operating this system to inform how Rapid7 detects and responds to AI-enhanced offensive activity in the wild. You can learn more about Vector Command, Rapid7's continuous red-teaming solution, here.

Enligt Microsoft kan tekniken minska behovet av kontextdata med upp till 98 procent utan att försämra träffsäkerheten. Det hela uppmärksammades först av vår syskonpublikation InfoWorld. Memora fungerar genom att varje minne delas upp i en kort sammanfattande beskrivning och ett mer detaljerat innehåll. Systemet använder också så kallade “cue anchors” – kontextbaserade etiketter – för att hitta relaterad information utan att behöva söka igenom hela konversationshistoriken. Memora är än så länge ett forskningsprojekt, men Microsoft har publicerat källkoden på Github så att utvecklare kan testa och bygga vidare på tekniken.

Open original transmissionOpera browser has announced a new security feature called Paste Protect that aims to stop clipboard-based cyberattacks before their malicious commands can be accidentally executed. Opera says it's the first major browser to offer native protection against ClickFix attacks – a growing form of social engineering that tricks users into copying and pasting malicious commands into a computer's terminal. The new feature is built into Opera's desktop browsers and enabled by default. ClickFix attacks typically masquerade as routine troubleshooting prompts, such as fake CAPTCHA verification or video playback fixes. Once pasted and executed, the commands can install malware, steal passwords, or give attackers remote access to a device. Opera describes the browsing risk as follows: A ClickFix-style attack usually starts with something small and ordinary: a video that won't play, or a CAPTCHA that won't quite verify you're human. A pop-up offers a fix, telling you to copy a short command and paste it into your computer's terminal. It looks like routine troubleshooting. In reality, that command can install malware, steal saved passwords, or hand an attacker remote access to your machine, all carried out by the user's own hands, on their own device.Opera features an existing clipboard hijack protection feature that prevents external applications from silently replacing copied content such as cryptocurrency wallet addresses. Paste Protect combines this with a new injection protection system that monitors clipboard activity for suspicious commands copied from websites and blocks potentially malicious content before it reaches the clipboard. Users can see the first 120 characters of the blocked content, and developers working with trusted sources can override the block or mark specific sites as safe. Opera cited research from cybersecurity firm Huntress that said ClickFix accounted for more than 53 percent of malware-loading cyberattacks last year, indicating the rapid growth of the technique. Apple itself introduced a related safeguard for the Mac with the release of macOS Tahoe 26.4 earlier this year. Following the update, the operating system explicitly warns the user before they paste potentially dangerous commands into the Terminal app. Opera browser is available now as a free update and can be downloaded from the company's website.Tag: Opera BrowserThis article, "Opera Browser Gains Protection Against Malicious Clipboard Commands" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
