OpenSea users' email addresses leaked in data breach
Engadget - 1 Jul 2022 00:55NFT marketplace OpenSea shared today that it's the victim of another data breach -- though this time the target is one of its vendors. An employee of its email delivery vendor, Customer.io, allegedly... downloaded and shared stored email addresses associated with OpenSea accounts and newsletter subscriptions with an unknown third party.

The Verge - 4 Jul 2022 00:14Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Twitter Blue has finally started letting subscribers on Android customize the app's navigation bar. The feature, which was previously available only on iOS,... lets you get rid of the Spaces icon that's smack-dab in the middle of your navigation bar (and of course, remove some of the other tabs if you want, too). With custom navigation, you can reduce the number of displayed tabs to as few as two, or keep all five that appear by default -- handy if you're tired of stretching your finger over the Spaces tab just to get to your DMs and notifications. Twitter first started testing the Spaces tab on iOS last year and rolled out the tab on Android in May, which seemed to only give more inconvenienced users a reason to sign up for the $2.99 /...

Sony didn't say those exact words, but it didn't have to for me to know that it's one of the reasons why it decided to announce two gaming monitors this week. Another reason is because Sony's growing focus on services means that PS Plus will eventually go beyond the console. Getting its games in front of more people instead of locking them down as exclusives has, in the past few years, become a welcome change in strategy.
