Microsoft Authenticator won't manage your passwords anymore - here's why and what's next

zdnet.com Lance Whitney 2026-03-04 17:40:00

gyro/Getty Images Those of you who use Microsoft Authenticator as a password manager will have to find another option, and soon. That's because an upcoming change will pull the plug on the ability to use the Authenticator app to store and autofill passwords. In a recent support document, Microsoft revealed the timeline for Authenticator's retirement as a password manager. Starting in June, you'll no longer be able to add or import new passwords in the app, though you'll still be able to save p

When you picture a playground, what do you see? Perhaps a space with slides, swings, climbing bars, and merry-go-rounds, with asphalt underneath, or maybe a bouncier, colourful surface that undulates. If it’s a bigger playground, it might have wooden huts on stilts with wood chips underneath – even a zip line, if you’re lucky. Here’s what it won’t have: kids setting fires, sawing wood, cooking food, writing operettas, or constructing 50ft towers. It won’t look like a literal bomb site or junk y

Cloudflare to introduce pay-per-crawl for AI bots

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-04 16:20:27

5 min read A changing landscape of consumption Many publishers, content creators and website owners currently feel like they have a binary choice — either leave the front door wide open for AI to consume everything they create, or create their own walled garden. But what if there was another way? At Cloudflare, we started from a simple principle: we wanted content creators to have control over who accesses their work.
