367: Temu App is Spyware?! (Plus, More Nintendo Lawsuits!)
Description
Gamers rejoice: we've got news on Xbox, Nintendo, and Apple retro game emulators on this week's Technado!
In some of our biggest stories this week, there's a new Google Chrome 0-day, Temu's getting sued, and millions of OpenSSH servers may be vulnerable to an attack. We also cover PortSwigger's very first outside investment, a biometric MFA token that doubles as a ring, and Grasshopper: a group of hackers...or pentesters...or hackers pretending to be pentesters.
In other news, an Australian man was caught red-handed harvesting credentials while on a flight (yes, DURING the flight), Kadokawa Group got hit with a ransomeware attack, and Sophie and Daniel have some strong opinions on AI-generated commentator Al Michaels.
