Microsoft Probing Whether Israel Used Its Cloud to Build Palestinian Surveillance System

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2026-02-05 12:45:18

For the past two years, Microsoft has been dogged by accusations—both within and outside the company—that its technology is aiding the Israeli war effort. Microsoft’s own employees have protested the firm’s contracts with Israel, and protesters have disrupted the company’s various talks and conferences. Even the company’s 50th anniversary was ruined by shouts from one of its own employees, who reportedly yelled “Shame on you” while calling the company’s head of AI a “war profiteer” who was “usin

The Galaxy S25's biggest flex that I noticed while testing is it shares many of the same attributes as its pricier counterparts, the S25 Plus and S25 Ultra – but it does so for several hundred dollars less. You'll find features like the AI Select tool, Audio Eraser and deeper Gemini integration across all of Samsung's S25 devices, as well as a custom Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and 12GB RAM – making the smaller phone of the bunch still seem pretty mighty.

How a mysterious particle could explain the Universe’s missing antimatter

Everything we see around us, from the ground beneath our feet to the most remote galaxies, is made of matter. For scientists, that has long posed a problem: According to physicists’ best current theories, matter and its counterpart, antimatter, ought to have been created in equal amounts at the time of the Big Bang. But antimatter is vanishingly rare in the universe. So what happened? Physicists don’t know the answer to that question yet, but many think the solution must involve some subtle dif

Apple Finally Destroyed Steve Jobs’ Vision of the iPad. Good

After the hearing, two conclusions were inescapable. First, the disaster should have been prevented by existing safety rules.
