Rogers is doubling down on its partnership with Starlink to bring expanded satellite-to-mobile coverage and capabilities across Canada π¨π¦
During its Q3 2026 earnings call, CEO Tony Staffieri confirmed that Rogers is deepening its collaboration with SpaceX
βWeβre proactively deepening our collaboration with Starlink on sat-to-mobile connectivityβ
Rogers intends to lead Canada in satellite-to-mobile connectivity as the partnership expands coverage and capabilities, particularly in remote and underserved areas where traditional cell towers cannot reach

SpaceX has used thrusters to position spacecraft for decades.
Making them work in a vehicle instead of a vacuum took all-new hardware & controls.
Every usable void in the car is packed with Carbon Fiber Overwrapped Pressure Vessels (COPVs)
More compressed gas on board = more flight time

Researchers spent 500 hours and $70,000 and found LG TVs logging plain text transcripts in standby, mapping every device in the house, and feeding it to LG's ad arm
Unplug the internet and it saves the files until you plug back in.
LG says its TVs don't record ambient conversations.
The evidence begs to differ.
216 million of these are sitting in living rooms.
Where are the regulators?

Weβre currently experiencing a significant and highly unusual infrastructure incident at our PhoenixNAP data center, where the facility has suffered a failure of its cooling systems.
To protect our customersβ infrastructure and prevent equipment from overheating or suffering longer-term damage, we made the difficult but necessary decision to take affected services offline while we work with the data center operator to resolve the issue.
The latest information we have is that PhoenixNAP has brought 2 of its 4 chillers back online, and we are seeing temperatures in the data center begin to drop. We anticipate that the third chiller will be back online in approximately 3 hours, at which point we believe we will be able to begin bringing our services back online. PhoenixNAP is also installing additional cooling units as we speak to help accelerate the cooling of the data center.
This is an extraordinary situation, and one we have never experienced before. Iβm deeply sorry for the disruption it is causing our customers.
The impact is broad, currently affecting more than 5,000 servers and impacting Namecheap.com, Shared/VPS/Dedicated Hosting, EasyWP, DNS, Private Email and hosting email, email forwarding, URL redirects, and some hosting operations. Websites and services may be unavailable, slow, or return errors until the infrastructure can safely be brought back online.
For email specifically, delivery may be delayed, but messages are not expected to be lost. Sending servers should retry once connectivity is restored.
Our teams on site are working around the clock alongside PhoenixNAP to restore cooling, safely bring infrastructure back online, and return services to normal as quickly as possible.
We know how much our customers rely on us to keep their businesses, websites, email, and domains online. We take that responsibility incredibly seriously, and we are truly sorry that we are letting you down today.
Our immediate priority is restoring service safely and as quickly as we can. We will continue to provide updates as we make progress.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

π¨ do you understand what just happened to your passwords
cpuid one of the most trusted sites in PC hardware.
hacked. April 10th, 2026. CPU-Z and HWMonitor. both compromised.
> fake CRYPTBASE.dll ships inside the installer
> connects to C2, downloads a C# file
> compiles it silently using YOUR own Windows tools
> injects into memory. never touches disk. AV sees nothing.
> opens Chrome's password vault. dumps everything.
the chain:
cpuid β HWMonitor installer β DLL hijack
β supp0v3[.]com β silent .NET compile
β in-memory injection β Chrome credentials stolen
same group. same C2 domain. hit FileZilla in March 2026.
they got lazy. that's the only reason we caught it.
Mr. Titus Tech is correct. cpuid-dot-com is indeed delivering malware right now.
As I began poking this with I stick I discovered this is not your typical run-of-the-mill malware. This malware is deeply trojanized, distributes from a compromised domain (cpuid-dot-com), performs file masquerading, is multi-staged, operates (almost) entirely in-memory, and uses some interesting methods to evade EDRs and/or AVs such as proxying NTDLL functionality from a .NET assembly.
The C2 domain present in one of the binaries is a clear IoC. This is the same Threat Group who was masquerading FileZilla in early March, 2026. They've been busy.

In June, Secure Boot certificates will start to expire. Don't wait to update.
Secure Boot certificates ensure you can prevent malicious codeβsuch as rootkits or bootβlevel malwareβfrom loading before the operating system starts.
See the playbook to get started: msft.it/6012QKPLY

No one in the car. No safety driver.
Fully autonomous.
