arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-12-22 23:18:18

Google is fond of saying its mission is to "organize the world's information," but who gets to decide what information is worthy of organization? A San Francisco tech CEO has spent the past several years attempting to remove unflattering information about himself from Google's search index, and the nonprofit Freedom of the Press Foundation says he's still at it. Most recently, an unknown bad actor used a bug in one of Google's search tools to scrub the offending articles. The saga began in 2023

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2025-12-23 09:00:26

Researchers at the Kwantlen Polytechnic University in British Columbia, Canada, conducted the study, an international survey of adults.

A new, faster-paced game mode is coming to Apex Legends on August 5

engadget.com Unknown 2025-12-23 23:00:48

The next season of Apex Legends kicks off on August 5, and it will see the arrival of a new, permanent game mode. Respawn says it built Wildcard as a faster-paced alternative to the core battle royale mode. For instance, when you take out an enemy, they won't leave behind a death box. Instead, their loot will scatter around them, making it easier for you to spot and pick up an item you need or want. Another big difference here is legend stacking. You and your teammates will all be able to play
