Following several months of testing and configuration, the first suite of images has been released from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), successor to the Hubble Space Telescope.

A leaked trove of confidential files has revealed the inside story of how the tech giant Uber flouted laws, duped police, exploited violence against drivers and secretly lobbied governments during its aggressive global expansion.

The unprecedented leak to the Guardian of more than 124,000 documents – known as the Uber files – lays bare the ethically questionable practices that fuelled the company’s transformation into one of Silicon Valley’s most famous exports.

The leak spans a five-year period when Uber was run by its co-founder Travis Kalanick, who tried to force the cab-hailing service into cities around the world, even if that meant breaching laws and taxi regulations.

A new data extortion group has been breaching companies to steal confidential information, threatening victims to make the files publicly available unless they pay a ransom.

The gang received the name Luna Moth and has been active since at least March in phishing campaigns that delivered remote access tools (RAT) that enable the corporate data theft.

Today is Microsoft’s July 2022 Patch Tuesday, and with it comes fixes for one actively exploited zero-day vulnerability and a total of 84 flaws.

Today we’ll examine what it might imply if that nihilistic and grim view of reality was correct.
