BreachForums hacking forum operators reportedly arrested in France

The French police have reportedly arrested five operators of the BreachForum cybercrime forum, a website used by cybercriminals to leak and sell stolen data that exposed the sensitive information of millions.

How to Write Compelling Release Announcements

How to Write Compelling Software Release Announcements A release announcement showcases how the user’s experience is better today than it was yesterday. That sounds obvious, but most release announcements seem to forget that there’s a user at all. So many release announcements just enumerate new features in a way that’s totallly divorced from how real people use the software. The announcement is essentially just a changelog with better writing. For example, here’s a “changelog” style of annou

This Electric Scooter is 57% off the Original Price, Amazon Wants to Clear Its Stock Before Prime Day

Electric scooters are the newest hip means of transportation with a great combination of convenience, speed, and style.

Spectrum also has a great and reasonable pricing to consider, with its 1,000Mbps plan costing just $70 per month. Yet while there is a wide range of i

Apple’s push to take over the dashboard resisted by car makers

Apple is facing resistance from the automotive industry over its CarPlay Ultra software system, which the tech group launched in an attempt to take over a vehicle’s dashboard for the first time.

Google Photos could soon suggest photos you may want to delete (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google Photos may soon offer suggestions to help users clean up storage by deleting unnecessary photos. These suggestions will appear after users delete multiple photos. The feature will likely be optional, and the app could receive a corresponding setting to turn it off. Google Photos already offers a convenient way for users to free up storage space on their devices through the “Manage storage” option. It lists photos and videos with large file siz

Third places and neighborhood entrepreneurship (2024)

Sociologists have shown that “third places” such as neighborhood cafés help people maintain and use their network ties. Do they help local entrepreneurs, for whom networks are important? We examine whether the introduction of Starbucks cafés into U.S. neighborhoods with no coffee shops increased entrepreneurship. When compared to census tracts that were scheduled to receive a Starbucks but did not get one, tracts that received a Starbucks saw an increase in the number of startups of 9.1% to 18%

Mattel’s ‘Jurassic Park’ SDCC Exclusive Is a Goofy Love Letter to Comic Cons

The shot of the T. Rex bringing down the “When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth” banner is one of the most legendary in all of Jurassic Park, a moment that defines the franchise. Now, Mattel is putting a suitably goofy spin on it for an amazing exclusive at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. This morning Mattel revealed the crowning glory of its batch of exclusives for SDCC this year: the Hammond Collection T. Rex Convention Crasher set, which takes the T. Rex’s banner-crashing moment and transposes it

The Final ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Trailer Ups the Stakes Even Further

We’re a month away from the arrival of the next Marvel movie in Fantastic Four: First Steps, and Marvel is reminding us in style with a brand new trailer—one that really wants you to feel the stakes that are riding on this movie, in more ways than one. Prior looks at First Steps leaned into the Silver Age retro-kitsch of its world, and then the arrival of Julia Garner’s Silver Surfer to herald the threat of the dread, Galactus. But now this final big trailer for the film really wants to remind

Extreme Heatwave Makes This Handheld Mini Fan Almost Free, this Amazon Deal Won’t Last but the Heat Will

It turns out that Summer is pretty hot for most of us. While there are those who proclaim to love being cooked alive while out and about, but we reckon they’re lying.

New space startup Lux Aeterna wants to make satellites reusable

Satellites can accomplish incredible tasks like provide internet, or help monitor wildfires. But many of them ultimately meet a fiery death burning up in the Earth’s atmosphere. Others use their last bit of fuel to move to so-called “graveyard” orbits, where they circle the planet in a perpetual deep freeze. A new startup called Lux Aeterna wants to change this. The Denver-based company, which is coming out of stealth today, has designed a reusable satellite called Delphi that it aims to launch

The Debrief: Power and energy

Yet in many ways right now the US seems to be forgetting those lessons. It is moving backward in terms of its clean-­energy strategy, especially when it comes to powering the grid, in ways that will affect the nation for decades to come—even as China and others are surging forward. And that retreat is taking place just as electricity demand and usage are growing again after being flat for nearly two decades. That growth, according to the US Energy Information Administration, is “coming from the

Exclusive: Google Pixel 10’s display could hurt your eyes less — but only if you go Pro

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR The Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL displays could be better for people who are sensitive to PWM dimming. Google is considering an upgrade to 480Hz dimming for the Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL. The regular model, as well as the Fold, may stick to 240Hz.

Instead of the Pro Pixels being larger, slightly

Google’s got some bright ideas for Pixel 10 screen upgrades

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Google’s preparing some screen upgrades for the Pixel 10 family, including a more eye-friendly PWM mode. In addition to that, we’re also expecting brighter panels for the Pixel 10 line’s displays. All Pixel 10 phones should be at least 200 nits brighter than their Pixel 9 equivalents. If we’re to believe the rumors, Google’s less than two months away from announcing its Pixel 10 smartphone lineup. We’ve already pieced together a ton of details about what

Did this Google Pixel 11 leak just kill the Pixel 10?

Ryan Haines / Android Authority If the rumors are true, the Google Pixel 10 is just a few short months away. And between new camera features, a 3nm Tensor G5 chipset, and a host of new AI capabilities, there’s a lot to look forward to. But does any of that matter anymore? Yesterday, a new report shed light on fresh details for 2026’s Pixel 11 series — specifically that Google’s Pixel 11 handsets will feature a TSMC-made Tensor G6 chip with a 2nm fabrication design. Not only would that be a jum

Google's Imagen 4 text-to-image model promises 'significantly improved' boring images

Google has unveiled its latest text-to-image model Imagen 4 with the usual promise of "significantly improved text rendering" over the previous version, Imagen 3.

Both arrive to a paid preview in the Gemini API and for limited free testing in Google AI Studio. Google describes the main Imagen 4 model as "your go-to for most tasks" with a price of $.

ZDNET's key takeaways The AAWireless Two costs $65 and gives you wireless Android Auto support when plugged in. A new built-in button lets you quickly swap between paired devices. The companion app is almost too robust, but that's a good problem to have. $64.99 at Amazon Since I bought my first car three years ago, I've had the worst luck with wireless Android Auto adapters. I initially sprung for the Motorola MA1 because of its popularity and, admittedly, Amazon's algorithmic recommendation,

The best noise-canceling earbuds of 2025: Expert tested and reviewed

When did everything become so noisy? The best noise-canceling earbuds don't just improve your music-listening experience, they also offer up complete silence when you need zero distractions.

Incogni vs. DeleteMe: Which service removes your personal data best?

Maria Diaz/ZDNET Data removal services began to appear around 15 years ago, after data brokers realized that data could become a new, valuable currency -- and one ripe for exploitation, given the lack of laws and little to no consumer data privacy protection written into legislation. Incogni and DeleteMe, founded in 2021 as part of VPN provider Surfshark and in 2010 by Abine Privacy, respectively, are two of the most widely-known data removal services in the US. Both companies offer data remov

Bunker Busters probably failed to penetrate Iranian concrete

On Saturday, June 21, 2025, following a spate of unprecedented aerial attacks that Israel carried out against Iran just days before, the United States joined the war and used bunker-busting bombs to strike three key Iranian nuclear sites and their underground bunkers: the Fordow fuel-enrichment plant, the Natanz nuclear facility, and the Isfahan nuclear technology center. Operation Midnight Hammer, the Pentagon’s codename for the strikes on Iran, marks the first-ever use of the Massive Ordnance
