The Philippine cable company in question is known as Orient Cable. According to the country’s local new agency, the station had aired a badly pirated version of Avengers: Endgame, just a day after the film hit cinemas in the country. Forgetting the fact that what Orient Cable did was just plain unfair to people who had yet to see the movie, it should come as no surprise that the act itself was highly illegal....

Frequent app reverse engineer Jane Manchun Wong shared on the same platform a couple of days prior a tweet to that effect. The way to tell if a brand has paid for a hashtag to be clickable is if also comes with an icon next to the hashtag. This is usually temporary, as a way to promote something, and we’ve seen this frequently, especially around the time of big announcements and launches....

In the announcement post, Ubisoft says that it will be using what it had learned from this game in future products. Though short of another original battle royale title, it remains to be seen where else can the parts that made Hyper Scape unique be used. — Hyper Scape (@HyperScapeGame) January 27, 2022 For the unfamiliar, Hyper Scape was Ubisoft’s attempt to cash in on the free-to-play battle royale fad....

The credentials were not made available outside of Facebook according to the company, but sources close to Krebs on Security said that these credentials might be searchable by over 20,000 employees of the company. For context, Facebook employed 35,587 people by the end of 2018. According to Facebook, the problem was discovered in January through a routine security review. The company normally masks passwords using techniques that make them unreadable but according to a source who talked to Krebs on Security, this issue may have existed since 2012....

The DOS’ bounty comes as a response to a recent ransomware attack by REvil, this time involving an agricultural products provider named JBS Foods, whose business expands across both the US and Australia. Prior to this, the ransomware group also attacked the digital infrastructure of the Florida-based IT company, Kaseya, back in July this year, demanding a ransom of US$70 million (~RM290 million) in Bitcoin. In addition to the bounty, the US Department of Justice (DOJ) also arrested two men – a Ukranian by the name of Yaroslav Vasinskyi and a Russian called Yevgeniy Plyanin – accused of having roles within the REvil group....

Even though Valve has since removed the page, details that are contained within it have made their way into the internet.

The Y52t sports a 6.51-inch LCD flat display with a standard refresh rate of 60Hz, though the peak brightness level has not been listed by the company. Running on OriginOS Ocean based on Android 12, the phone has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and face recognition support, but unfortunately lacks any rating for water and dust resistance.

Apple’s supposed gambit to champion child safety also brought in criticism from WhatsApp head Will Carthcart. In a thread posted on Twitter, Cathcart argues that the new feature is basically a “surveillance system that could very easily be used to scan private content for anything [Apple] or a government decides it wants to control.” He also expressed concerns on the possibility that the approach could be exploited by authorities, especially by governments such as China’s – which has been often said to control and censor content published by its citizens....

The new QR code functionality allows users to quickly add new contacts by scanning a provided code, rather than having to key in their phone number. As a security measure, WhatsApp also added the ability for users to revoke their QR code to avoid it from being misused for whatever reasons. Video calls on the platform can now fit in a maximum number of eight participants per session. As demonstrated in the beta prior to this, initiating it involves making the call from an existing group that has eight members or less....

“In Los Angeles, the toll rate is going by the hour which requires well-developed artificial intelligence,” he said. According to the minister, the system is able to control traffic by raising the toll in peak hours and giving discounts in off-peak hours. “Such practice shifts traffic volume from congested hours to off-peak hours and less congestion could result in more discounts.” “We can look into the framework for a possible flexible toll rate if we have the ITS integration, which can offer a dynamic range, promotes safer roads, and minimises environmental impact,” the minister said....

It looks like the both devices will be made available in the local market without much changes. For the Xiaomi 11T, we’re still looking at a phone with a 6.67-inch AMOLED display and 120Hz refresh rate, running the MediaTek Dimensity 1200-Ultra chipset and powered by a 5000mAh battery with support for 67W charging. As for the Xiaomi 11T Pro, it runs the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset instead, and its battery supports even faster charging at 120W....

Xiaomi stated that among the challenging aspect of this project is to craft the hyper-curved glass panel which has an angle of 88-degrees and requires a long list of complex procedures to make it a reality. The company also claimed that it finally managed to come out with the final product after thousands of attempts. Since all sides of the concept phone are covered by glass, the functions that were traditionally performed by physical buttons have been taken over by touch gestures....

Based on that information, it seems that the phone will be officially announced alongside the global debut of Redmi Note 9 series.

However, we have previously noted in our previous report that the only difference between Redmi Note 10 Pro and Redmi Note 10 Pro Max is the 108MP main camera. In Malaysia as well as other global markets, the Pro and Pro Max have been consolidated into a single Pro variant that still carries the 108MP camera.

Starting with the Sony Inzone H3, the entry level model of the series, this is listed on Sony Malaysia as being priced at RM439. Oddly enough, there’s a buy button that you can hit, if you feel so inclined. It also notes that the fabric covering the earpads are of the nylon variety. Then there’s the Sony Inzone H7. You could consider it the mid-range option of the series, but the price jump from the H3 model is pretty substantial....
