A staggering 16 billion logins exposed in epic data breach, including Apple accounts

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-09-15 09:06:56

Security researchers have discovered what they describe as “one of the largest data breaches in history,” comprising a staggering 16 billion logins, which include Apple accounts (formerly known as Apple IDs). The researchers said that the stolen data gives cybercriminals “unprecedented access to personal credentials that can be used for account takeover, identity theft, and highly targeted phishing” … You may recall a report last month that Apple login credentials were among a massive database

I Spent Weeks Using Orb: It's Unlike Any Internet Speed Test I've Ever Used Before

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-09-15 09:00:00

Internet speed tests aren't just for people who obsess over their internet connection. If you're having an inevitable home internet slowdown, my first recommendation is always to start with a speed test. In fact, I’ve tested and used dozens of internet speed tests -- the market is pretty saturated with them. Ideally, the best internet speed test is one that diagnoses your bandwidth blues as easily as possible -- no ads, no extra features you can’t make sense of and no slowing down your Wi-Fi. S

7 Ways to Limit Your Endless Doomscrolling

wired.com David Nield 2025-09-15 09:00:00

If you actually measure the amount of time you spend scrolling through algorithm-led social media feeds each day, it will probably add up to more hours and minutes than you’d guess. Time can quickly slip away while you're checking up on friends, celebrities, the news, and the viral memes of the day. The term doomscrolling has sprung up to describe this behavior, which, let's face it, isn't usually the most edifying or the best for our mood. It's no surprise that the word began to gain traction

One of SpaceX’s Starship launch vehicles exploded on a test stand in Texas late on Wednesday night, as the company prepared for the tenth test flight of the heavy-lift rocket system. SpaceX said “all personnel are safe and accounted for” in a post on X, and claimed there are “no hazards to residents in surrounding communities.” The company did not provide an explanation for the explosion.

How Hourglass Vision Transformers Are Redefining Camouflaged Object Detection

Introduction While camouflage gives wildlife and military vehicles a strategic survival advantage, it poses challenges, both for human and computer vision systems. It is difficult enough to detect objects designed to blend with their environments, but when the objects have blurry edges, the detection process is even more problematic. However, in a paper written for the 2025 IEEE/CVF Winter Conference on Applications of Computer Vision (WACV), Jinpeng He, Biyuan Liu, and Huaixin Chen of the Uni

I’ve spent the last year working on local-first apps, most recently with Muni Town. For me, ‘local-first’ isn’t just a technical architecture — it’s a political and social stance. It’s about shifting control: from remote servers and top-down central authorities deciding how data, workflows, and communities operate, to individuals and communities reclaiming that control and gaining autonomy. Seen this way, privacy and consent aren’t add-ons — they’re foundational, just as critical as sync or data
