Russian government hackers targeting Signal and WhatsApp users, Dutch spies warn | TechCrunch Dutch intelligence is accusing Russia-backed hackers of running a โ€œlarge-scale globalโ€ hacking campaign against Signal and WhatsApp users.

NEW: Dutch intelligence services are warning of new hacking campaigns against Signal and WhatsApp users, including government and military officials, and journalists worldwide.

The social engineering techniques used are not new, but the fact that the Dutch are warning against them means they work.

Capcom love the RE Engine, but still don't trust it in RE9 for posing their models for the most basic photos, leaving us with eldritch horrors from the bowels of Uncanny Valley.

So Iranโ€™s sole athlete for the Winter Paralympics couldnโ€™t safely make the games that start today, according to UK broadcasters. So no Iranian team present. Would have paraded just before Israel at the opening ceremony taking place at the moment in Verona. Russia and Belarus return.

Brutal numbers for US tech sector jobs released todayโ€”overall, employment decreased by 12k last month and is down 57k over the last year

That's now nearly as bad as the worst of the 2024 tech-cession, and significantly worse than either the 2008 or 2020 recessions
