In einer Welt, in der Smartwatches und Fitness-Tracker immer beliebter werden, wird eine zentrale Frage immer drängender: Wie sicher sind unsere Daten? Die meisten dieser Geräte sind auf proprietäre Apps angewiesen, die häufig persönliche Informationen, wie Gesundheitsdaten, an externe Server übermitteln. Für viele Nutzer, die Wert auf den Schutz ihrer Privatsphäre legen, stellt dies ein ernsthaftes Problem dar. Hier kommt die Gadgetbridge ins Spiel. 👇

Beloved Apple blog TUAW was shut down in 2015, sold to private equity, then sold to a company in Hong Kong. It recently relaunched as an AI content farm using the stolen identities and bylines of its former human staff. A nightmare:

A Beloved Tech Blog Is Now Publishing AI Articles Under the Names of Its Old Human Staff
TUAW, a site that was shut down 10 years ago, was sold to a private equity firm, then to a company in Hong Kong, and has now stolen its old workers' identities and is running their old work through AI summarizers.Jason Koebler (404 Media)
TUAW has now changed its "writers' names" to random other things. "Christina Warren" is now "Mary Brown."
So now it has "just" bastardized the work of these journalists and is polluting the internet, but at least is not stealing their names and poisoning their search results ...... success?

Sometimes you can tell a lot about a person by the domains they register. For no particular reason, I was looking at the domain footprint of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, and found a phone number connected to her over the years that was used to register mtgforamerica[.]us back in 2021. The domain's registration records are hidden behind privacy services from anonymize.com, but their privacy system assigns a unique email to each private registrant, so you can still do a reverse search on that and find out what other domains are registered by the same account.
Domaintools finds 21683@anonymize.com was used to register 156 domains, including supportkylerittenhouse[.]com and repealjuneteenth.com. Here's the full list if anyone's interested: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

Also story takes a spot for the number of times one can misspell Avada Kedavra. Lots of things misspelled lots of times across the fandom, (like Fidelius ) but it's the great AK in this silly fanfic.

It turns out Google Chrome ships a default, hidden extension that allows code on `*.google.com` access to private APIs, including your current CPU usage
You can test it out by pasting the following into your Chrome DevTools console on any Google page:
chrome.runtime.sendMessage(
"nkeimhogjdpnpccoofpliimaahmaaome",
{ method: "cpu.getInfo" },
(response) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(response, null, 2));
},
);

in reply to Jorge Toledo • • •And I want to say I'm loving the state of #GNOME's app ecosystem. Lots of apps, most of them really nice, many of them incredibly polished and well designed. The vision of small applications that do one thing and do it great was never so close.
All my love for the developers of these and many other great applications out there, and also for the GNOME community, for creating the ground for such an ecosystem to grow.
