The WIRED Guide to Protecting Yourself From Government Surveillance

wired.com Andy Greenberg 2025-09-22 13:00:00

The Trump administration has ordered Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to carry out sweeping raids, deporting thousands of immigrants, often without due process. It has targeted left-leaning foreign students and entire universities, canceling visas and threatening to withhold federal funding. United States Supreme Court appointments from the previous Trump administration have resulted in decisions that enabled roughly half of US states to severely restrict or ban abortions. And Trump’s

For those times, satellite phones are a true game-changer for anyone beyond the reach of traditional mobile networks or during emergencies or natural disasters.

In recent years, numerous plaintiffs—including publishers of books, newspapers, computer code, and photographs—have sued AI companies for training models using copyrighted material. A key question in all of these lawsuits has been how easily AI models produce verbatim excerpts from the plaintiffs’ copyrighted content. For example, in its December 2023 lawsuit against OpenAI, the New York Times Company produced dozens of examples where GPT-4 exactly reproduced significant passages from Times sto

Stanford Doctors Invent Device That Appears to Be Able to Save Tons of Stroke Patients Before They Die

Image by Andrew Brodhead Researchers have developed a novel device that literally spins away the clots that block blood flow to the brain and cause strokes. As Stanford explains in a blurb, the novel milli-spinner device may be able to save the lives of patients who experience "ischemic stroke" from brain stem clotting. Traditional clot removal, a process known as thrombectomy, generally uses a catheter that either vacuums up the blood blockage or uses a wire mesh to ensnare it — a procedure

Testing kamado grills is an intense experience for a griller. It requires playing with fire (literally) and high temperatures, although in a controlled, responsible way. The most critical element to kamado's performance is heat, specifically temperature control and how well a grill holds to one temperature. To smoke meat low and slow, that magic number is 225℉. Good smokers, kamados or otherwise, will stick to this temp for as long as 12, 15 or 20 hours. This means the temperature gauge is key a
