Apple has been selling Hide My Email to keep your real email address hidden, but it has a vulnerability that does the exact opposite. The worst part is that the company has known about it for a year.  Hide My Email, part of Apple’s paid iCloud+ subscription, lets users generate anonymous email addresses for signing up to a website, so that their personal or work email remains free of promotional emails and spam.  However, the team at 404 Media, along with a security researcher, has now confirmed that the feature has a bug that links those anonymous addresses back to…

Building a permanent base on the Moon sounds like science fiction, but NASA is making it feel a lot more real. The agency just handed $590 million in contracts to three private companies for four uncrewed lunar lander missions launching in late 2028. These missions are part of Phase 1 of NASA’s broader $30 billion Moon Base program, which needs to deliver landers, rovers, and scientific cargo up there before astronauts eventually move in. These efforts are closely tied NASA’s Artemis program, which sent humans on a lunar flyby in April for the first time since the Apollo era. Who…

Sony’s WH-1000XM6 gaming mode is rolling out through firmware version 3.1.5, adding support for Bluetooth LE Audio‘s Gaming Audio Profile, or GMAP. The same update also includes general performance improvements, so WH-1000XM6 owners have a real reason to open the Sony Sound Connect app. It’s a handy upgrade for headphones built more for commutes or office silence than late-night matches. Bluetooth lag can make games feel faintly wrong, especially when a footstep or button press lands a fraction too late. The WH-1000XM6 still looks like a normal pair of premium noise-canceling headphones, thankfully. Sony’s giving it a better shot at…

If you have ever handed your Mac to a friend, family member, or coworker for “just a minute,” you know the mild panic that follows. Sure, your Mac has a lock screen, but once someone is past it, they can open Messages, Photos, Notes, Mail, WhatsApp, and your browser. iPhones had the same issue, but Apple solved it by adding an app lock feature with the iOS 18 update. Sadly, no such feature exists for macOS. That’s where the new FaceGate app for Mac can help you. It’s a free and open-source app that lets you lock apps on your…

Google is planning on making Android 17 even more secure. The company had previously confirmed that Android 17 will now reduce the number of times someone can guess your PIN or password and add longer wait times between failed attempts. Now, thanks to a deeper breakdown from Mishaal Rahman, we have a better idea of how aggressive that change really is. The old system gave attackers too much room Older Android builds allowed far more failed unlock attempts over time. Android 16 could allow up to 10 guesses in the first minute, 20 within six minutes, 50 within 25 minutes,…
