Amazon’s third annual Big Spring Sale might be a great opportunity to pick up a color ebook reader or an RGB-equipped table lamp, but the pickings are slimmer when it comes to noise-canceling headphones. Sure, the Sony WH-1000XM6 are just over $60 off, though I’d argue the Sonos Ace are a better deal, given they’re […] Read more ›

BrianFagioli writes: A new iOS exploit chain called DarkSword shows how attackers can break into certain iPhones, grab sensitive data like messages, credentials, and even crypto wallets, and then disappear without leaving obvious traces. It targets older iOS 18 builds using Safari and WebGPU flaws to escape Apple's sandbox, which is pretty wild on its own, but what really stands out is how fast it works and how financially motivated...
