The MLs have been shown to be extraordinarily good at statistically guessing your words. The words covered are probably comprehensive.
A speculation, https://www.phoronix.com/news/HDMI-2.1-OSS-Rejected, about HDCP, i.e. not exposing technical details as to prevent video copying, was offered.

Town-square when they lure you in, they own everything when they sell you ass off.
Yeah, the app data are separated and inaccessible, unless specified by the developer. Accessibility service is a separate permission, and should almost never be asked or granted, where as file/photo accesses are more common.
I agree with you. The article give a good warning about downloading applications in general, but hand-wave how they escalated from “file/photo” access to capturing your data. The recent Anatsa malware’s details seem to imply accessibility service. This is a Thread Fabric article about Anatsa malware: https://www.threatfabric.com/blogs/anatsa-trojan-returns-targeting-europe-and-expanding-its-reach
From the project’s page:
The wearable system captures peripheral neural signals when internal speech articulators are volitionally and neurologically activated, during a user’s internal articulation of words.
It doesn’t capture the central signal, but peripheral, most likely from the nerves running around your face and your neck used to produce speech.
No dirty thoughts! No dirty thoughts!
No, it appears to be an external headset, although it was noted that people wearing it looked like they had head injuries, but they are working on improving it so that it is less visible.

The article claims that the default assistant for a new phone is Gemini, but it seems people who responded here haven’t seen it. I already have the option to switch to Gemini, which I haven’t.
Lovely, that’s a trick I haven’t tried on Andorid.
Google assistant “app”: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.googleassistant&hl=en&gl=US
I think once it’s rolled out in your region, the assistant will pester you to switch to Gemini.
There is no Gemini app of any kind for me either.
It looks like you can switch the assistant to the old one, and then turn that one off.
But just like Microsoft, Google is going to use this technology everywhere. If in the future (or now, if it is already available to you), you use features to describe images, summarize data, create texts, you probably will be using some form of Gemini.
Considered it done. ;-)
The CVE-2023-52160, which applies to Android/linux/ChromeOS devices connecting to WPA2/WPA3 Enterprise, allows an attacker to fool the user to connect to a malicious SSID and intercept the traffic. So unencrypted traffic can be compromised. So, their listing of sensitive data, BEC, and password theft sound scary but probably affects very few services that don’t encrypt the data.
Yeah, check out this link: https://www.top10vpn.com/research/wifi-vulnerabilities/ , it says any Linux device running Intel’s iNet Wireless Daemon in an AP mode.
AI is most likely here to stay, so if you have it do “good” things effectively, then’s it’s a good boi. If it is ineffective or you have it do “bad” things, then it’s a bad boy.
