Google Rolls Out Anti-Stalking Feature for Android
Google has rolled out a new safety feature called "Unknown Tracker Alerts" for Android users. This feature will alert users if they are being tracked by an unknown AirTag or other Bluetooth device. AirTags are small, coin-sized tracking devices that can be attached to items like keys or wallets. They can be used to track the location of those items, but they can also be used to track people without their knowledge.
The Unknown Tracker Alerts feature works by scanning for Bluetooth devices that are not associated with any known app. If an unknown device is detected, the user will be shown a notification that asks if they want to learn more about the device. If the user taps on the notification, they will be able to see the device's name, its last known location, and how long it has been tracking them.
The Unknown Tracker Alerts feature is a great way to protect yourself from being tracked without your knowledge. If you are an Android user, I encourage you to enable this feature today.
Elon Musk Rebrands Twitter as 'X'
Elon Musk has announced that he is rebranding Twitter as "X". Musk made the announcement in a tweet, saying that the new name better reflects the company's future direction.
The name "X" is a reference to the Roman numeral for 10, which Musk has said is a symbol of the company's potential. He has also said that the new name is more "aspirational" than the old name, Twitter.
The rebranding of Twitter is just one of the many changes that Musk has made since taking over the company. He has also fired several top executives, rolled back some of the company's moderation policies, and launched a new subscription service called Twitter Blue.
It remains to be seen how the rebranding of Twitter will affect the company's future. However, it is clear that Musk is determined to make significant changes to the company.
