Launched in July 2023, Yubin Archive's popularity stemmed from its mission to "eliminate educational inequality" by providing copies of educational material to less well-off students in South Korea. Operating via Telegram, Yubin Archive had grown to over 330,000 members when its operator was arrested on Tuesday. The Ministry of Culture and Sport says others involved will be tracked down and given lessons in copyright law. Piracy of movies, TV shows, music, games and similar content, purely for

This excellent Samsung Good Lock feature should come to all Android phones

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority Say what you will about Samsung One UI, but it makes a strong argument for being one of the most feature-rich Android skins on the market. That’s in large part due to the company’s Good Lock suite of apps, which allows you to deeply customize various aspects of your phone. The latest Good Lock app is Display Assistant, which was released at the tail end of 2024. After recently downloading it, I’ve discovered a feature I’d love to see on all of my future Androi

Is Germany on the Brink of Banning Ad Blockers?

news.ycombinator.com .Wp-Block-Co-Authors-Plus-Coauthors.Is-Layout-Flow 2025-11-20 08:20:03

Across the internet, users rely on browsers and extensions to shape how they experience the web: to protect their privacy, improve accessibility, block harmful or intrusive content, and take control over what they see. But a recent ruling from Germany’s Federal Supreme Court risks turning one of these essential tools, the ad blocker, into a copyright liability — and in doing so, threatens the broader principle of user choice online.

Ceretone Core One Pro Hearing Aids Review: A Blunt Instrument

Ceretone, born on Indiegogo, hit the scene last year with impressively tiny hardware that still remains one of the smallest and lightest hearing aids I’ve ever reviewed. At just 0.96 grams each, the Ceretone Core One were so light they threatened to blow away in the wind. With a price of $349 per pair, they had a similarly minimal effect on your bank account. The trouble with the original Ceretone Core One is that they just weren’t very good as hearing aids. They were not tunable, suffered from

A glance at the list of announced films coming from Walt Disney Studios—including Disney’s live-action and animated divisions, plus Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, 20th Century Studios, Searchlight Pictures, and more—will tell you a few things.
