This month's Security-only update package for Windows 7 includes an unexpected compatibility/telemetry component that has some skeptical users up in arms. I'm sure there's a perfectly innocent explanation (they really want to watch)

WG21 has a strict schedule by which we ship the standard every three years. We don’t delay it. Because that's how long it takes companies to decide they won't be upgrading to the latest standard?

How the Lunar Laser Retroreflector, still operating 50 years later, ended up going to the moon. Mirror, mirror on the moon; how did you get there: by gull or balloon?
I'm assuming the moon landing deniers either deny it's actually there, or that it was somehow placed without human intervention?

Scientists have unveiled the first photograph ever captured of quantum entanglement, the physical phenomenon in which two or more “entangled” particles are connected via their quantum states, even across vast distances. Spooky!

OK, this a subject of interest to me, but I have to look into this more, because "taking a photograph of it" sounds remarkably like bullsh1t.

Good luck decrypting it: it uses a decades-old standard that was obviously "not good enough".

Just in case you were holding out any hope that Google didn’t let humans listen to voice recordings from Google Home and Google Assistant, stop doing that. Everyone else very angry Google let contractors handle the Assistant recordings

Google very angry for losing the "most evil" title, even if only temporarily.

I'm not sure if, and in what measure, Google is breaking any privacy laws.
What I do know is that the contractor is breaking some contractual agreements and probably also some privacy laws.
I can only assume that his contracting days are over and if it were up to me he'd do some jail time and pay a hefty fine for intentionally sharing confidential and private data.
I'm not even sure what this idiot tried to get out of it because it was apparently already known that humans listen to audio recordings (although it's now more widely known).
If this were a small company it could ruin them, the fact that it's Google should not matter in that regard.
I get that Google is angry, and I would be too.
For once, I'm on Google's side.
