Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Verizon is offering $1,000 off any device on a myPlan account — including entry-level plans — without a trade-in, but you must add a new BYOD line and claim the offer in-store. The new line is free for 36 months, but you’ll still pay around $7–$10 a month in taxes and fees. The deal is a great fit for those who need both a device upgrade and a new line that can be used with their old device, but may not make sense if you have no use for an extra line.
Empty grocery store shelves and grounded planes tend to signal a crisis, whether it’s an extreme weather event, public health crisis, or geopolitical emergency. But these scenes of chaos in recent weeks in the United Kingdom, United States, and Canada were caused instead by financially motivated cyberattacks—seemingly perpetrated by a collective of joyriding teens. A notorious cybercriminal group often called Scattered Spider is known for using social engineering techniques to infiltrate target
Last March, Air France hosted a private event at the upscale Ritz Paris hotel in Place Vendôme, in the luxurious heart of the city. The airline had built a full-scale mock-up of its new La Première first-class cabin and treated travel journalists like its most valued customers. The new cabin was classic and elegant, a showcase of the Air France aesthetic. Matteo Rainisio, founder of the Italian frequent-flier website The Flight Club, who was in attendance, called it akin to haute couture. Each
Expensive and erratic, in-flight Wi-Fi has been more of a punchline than a pipeline over the past decade. But 2025 has marked a sea change for the skies: the rollout of fast, and free, connectivity on most of the world’s major airlines. Satellite technology has enabled leaps in speed and bandwidth. SpaceX’s Starlink network of low Earth orbit satellites, for example, can deliver a connection capable of downloading more than 200 megabits per second—twice as fast as most basic home internet plans
Summer is officially here and you might be looking to beat the heat with a trip to a popular beach or dream overseas vacation, but experts warn that online scammers are looking to take advantage of eager travelers. Vacation scams are nothing new. Travel can be expensive and people are looking to grab the best prices they can get, says Seckin Yilgoren, Mastercard's senior vice president for security solutions for North American markets. This is especially true now as many people deal are dealin
In Brief Australian airline giant Qantas said on Wednesday it experienced a data breach that compromised the personal information of at least six million passengers. The airline said a cybercriminal targeted one of its call centers on June 30, and stole customer data from its systems, including names, email addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth and frequent flyer numbers. Qantas is the latest airline hacked in recent weeks following a spate of breaches attributed to Scattered Spider, a col

We continue Margary’s work by researching Roman roads using modern technology such as LiDAR, which uses lasers fired from an aircraft to create an incredibly accurate model of the earth’s surface beneath any vegetation, revealing surviving archaeology otherwise not visible. The example below is a Roman road in Lincolnshire, just east of Grantham, where until recently it was assumed that the A52 followed the course of a Roman road, which it almost certainly doesn’t. Instead, a different road lead
President Donald Trump says he has a buyer for TikTok. In an interview with on Fox News' Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo that aired this past Sunday, Trump said that the deal will probably need Chinese government approval, but he thinks that China's President Xi Jinping "will probably do it." Trump didn't reveal who the buyer is, only that it's a group of "very, very wealthy people," adding that he plans to make an announcement in about two weeks. The comments come about a little

People voted for President Donald Trump, they wore his shoes, his hats, and his watches, and soon they’ll be able to make calls on his phone. Yet there is seemingly always another addition to the ways in which one can experience all that is Trump: which brings us to the latest entry to the commander in chief’s ever-expanding fragrance collection. Victory 47 for Men promises “rich, masculine notes with a refined finish” without actually listing any of the ingredients or its scent profile. Helpfu
An AI-generated “bigfoot baddie,” with acrylic nails and a pink wig, speaks directly to her imaginary audience using an iPhone. “We might have to go on the run,” she says. “I’m wanted for a false report on my baby daddy.” This AI video, generated by Google’s Veo 3, has racked up over a million views on Instagram. It’s just one of many viral posts on Instagram and TikTok viewed by WIRED that depict Black women as primates and perpetuate racist tropes using AI video tools. Google’s Veo 3 was a hi
More than a decade after the acclaimed Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, DK is returning with Donkey Kong Bananza to add some much-needed variety to the Switch 2 lineup. The Switch 2 is the fastest-selling console in Nintendo’s history; days after release, it had already sold more than 3.5 million units across the world. Its initial launch lineup—though filled out with third-party games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Yakuza 0 Director’s Cut—has been light on Nintendo first-party games, relying hea
Types Define Interfaces Types are important. In fact, I'd guess that the expressive type system in rust is the single biggest reason why so many developers love the language. Types allow us to have a contract between parts of the system about our data and how to interact with it. All programming languages have the concept of types, but these exist along several dimensions. Strongly typed vs weakly typed as well as static vs dynamic typing.

Westend61 / Getty Images I sometimes try to squeeze in work during a long airline flight, and for that I typically need to tap into the in-flight Wi-Fi. How do today's airlines fare at providing good wireless access? A new report from Speedtest app provider Ookla looks at the best and worst of in-flight Wi-Fi. To compile its report, Ookla analyzed the data collected by its Speedtest app during the first quarter of 2025. The results included Wi-Fi performance for individual airlines, as well as
The Research Pipeline is Stalling The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) froze all outgoing funding, including new awards and scheduled payments on active grants. Over 1,000 NSF research projects were abruptly canceled in a few days, resulting in roughly $739 million in halted research funding. The directive, issued with little explanation, has created chaos across the academic research ecosystem, part of a broader trend Nature described as an unprecedented assault. Before we go any furthe
Tech firms face demands to stop illegal content going viral Oliver Griffiths, online safety group director at Ofcom, said its proposed measures seek to build on existing UK online safety rules but keep up with "constantly evolving" risks. These could also include making some larger platforms assess whether they need to proactively detect terrorist material under further online safety measures. The UK regulator published a consultation on Monday seeking views on further protections to keep cit
The US Embassy in Seoul resumed accepting applications for student and exchange visas but requested that applicants make any private social media accounts public, prompting some South Korean students pursuing studies in the US to seek the help of "digital undertakers." On June 20, the US Embassy in Seoul announced that it will resume taking in applications for its F, M and J nonimmigrant visas, saying it will conduct “thorough vetting” of applicants’ presence on social media.

Earlier this month, I wrote about a leaked image of what was rumored to be the Nothing Phone 3. That image showed a design with a translucent back and three center-aligned cameras. But a new set of supposed Nothing Phone 3 images reveal a different design — with one of the wildest camera layouts I’ve ever seen. Renders from Android Headlines show a phone with a translucent back but three cameras in a weirdly separated layout. Instead of a neat triangle like on Pro iPhones or the camera bar on P
Cybersecurity firms are warning that the prolific hacking group known as Scattered Spider is now targeting airlines and the transportation sector. Executives from Google’s cybersecurity unit Mandiant and Palo Alto Networks’ security research division Unit 42 say they have observed cyberattacks targeting the aviation industry resembling Scattered Spider. Scattered Spider is a collective of mostly English-speaking hackers, typically teenagers and young adults, who are financially motivated to st
Rumor mill: Since their launch in early 2022, AMD's X3D CPUs have become the most-sought after CPUs for PC gamers who want top performance, thanks largely to their 3D V-Cache technology, which enables higher frame rates and smoother gameplay. Intel is now reportedly planning to counter AMD's recent dominance in high-end gaming by incorporating similar technology in its upcoming Nova Lake CPUs. According to tipster @Haze2K1, at least two SKUs in the Nova Lake lineup will ship with increased L3 c
Hawaiian Airlines, the tenth-largest commercial airline in the United States, is investigating a cyberattack that has disrupted access to some of its systems.

Some of the managers decided that it would be a good idea to track the progress of each individual engineer in terms of the amount of code that they
Basic Economy fares are ultra-restricted airline tickets that offer a lower base price in exchange for fewer benefits than standard economy class. Introduced by major U.S. carriers in the 2010s, these fares have become a widespread strategy for market segmentation - a textbook example of price discrimination in practice. By design, Basic Economy compels travelers to self-select based on their willingness to pay and tolerate restrictions, thus allowing airlines to maximize revenue from different
