Recently, the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) filed legal complaints against Google. The complaints accuse Google of deceptive trade practices for breaking its own policies after it handed a user’s data to US authorities without notifying them. The tech giant claims that there are certain exceptions where it will not notify the user first. Now the EFF has shared its own response to Google’s statement. The situation stems from a subpoena submitted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The federal agency requested the user data of Amandla Thomas-Johnson, a foreign PhD student who is said to have attended a pro-Palestine protest…

Ravie LakshmananApr 16, 2026Botnet / Cryptomining Cybersecurity researchers have warned of an active malicious campaign that’s targeting the workforce in the Czech Republic with a previously undocumented botnet dubbed PowMix since at least December 2025. “PowMix employs randomized command-and-control (C2) beaconing intervals, rather than persistent connection to the C2 server, to evade the network signature detections,” Cisco Talos researcher Chetan Raghuprasad said in a report published today. “PowMix embeds the encrypted heartbeat data along with unique identifiers of the victim machine into the C2 URL paths, mimicking legitimate REST API URLs. PowMix has the capability to remotely update the new C2 domain to the botnet…
A phone’s push notifications can contain a significant amount of information about you, your communications, and what you do throughout the day. They’re important enough to government investigations that Apple and Google now both require a judge’s order to hand details about push notifications over to law enforcement, and even with that requirement Apple shares data on hundreds of users. More recently, we also learned from a 404 Media report that law enforcement forensic extraction tools can unearth the text from deleted notifications, including those from secure messaging tools, like Signal. The good news is that you can mitigate some of…
If you’ve ever started a new workout routine with the best intentions only to find yourself skipping sessions by week two, you’re not alone. I’m the type to get trapped in the same cycle of burnout, where I go hard for a couple of weeks, feel exhausted, feel guilty, and repeat. For me, what finally broke that cycle wasn’t a new gym membership or a fancy fitness app, but a simple scheduling hack: the “3-3-3 rule.” I’d seen this rule applied it to general productivity, and all the same principles can apply to your fitness habits, too. Here’s how you…
AI is emerging as a critical tool and a growing threat as CIOs struggle to balance innovation with risk, according to a new report.
An Ahrefs analysis of 1.4 million ChatGPT prompts found that pages from a dedicated Reddit source were rarely cited in ChatGPT responses, even though they were often retrieved. Ahrefs highlights this pattern in a new report. What The Report Looked At Ahrefs examined 1.4 million ChatGPT 5.2 prompts, tracking which pages were retrieved and later cited in the final response. About half of the retrieved pages were cited overall. The citation rate varied by source, with pages from general web searches cited most frequently. In contrast, pages from a Reddit source, described by Ahrefs, were cited only 1.93% of the…
Hackers are exploiting a critical vulnerability in Marimo reactive Python notebook to deploy a new variant of NKAbuse malware hosted on Hugging Face Spaces. Attacks leveraging the remote code execution flaw (CVE-2026-39987) started last week for credential theft, less than 10 hours after technical details were disclosed publicly, according to data from cloud-security company Sysdig. Sysdig researchers continued to monitor activity related to the security issue identified additional attacks, including a campaign that started on April 12 that abuses the Hugging Face Spaces platform for showcasing AI applications. Hugging Face serves as an AI development and machine learning-focused platform, acting as a…
