TechnologyCriminals are targeting phones and codes to make money, and victims don’t know what to do next. Your phone contains sensitive data and, in the wrong hands, this can cause a lot of problems. Use your phone to open your front door, pay at the store and even start your car.
So what should you do if your phone is stolen and the thief gets your passcode?
Dan Ghazi, founder of DAG Tech, a cyber company that helps businesses protect their information, says there are a few things you can do to protect yourself.
“When your phone is compromised or someone gets access to it, it’s like you have a whole bunch of problems,” Ghazi said. “You have to be careful if someone can see your phone.” When criminals get your passcode, they can change your Apple ID password, disable the Find My iPhone feature and block access for you, Ghazi said.
“They will change facial recognition to their facial recognition. So, they can unlock the phone and, likewise, they can use Apple Pay; they can access your banking applications,” Ghazi said.
Experts say criminals seem to be targeting mostly iPhone users, but owners of Android devices aren’t entirely safe. Ghazi said iPhones are more in demand and have a higher resale value.
But Apple is struggling. Their iOS 17.3 update includes a new feature called stolen device protection, which is designed to protect your information if your phone ends up in the wrong hands.
“Stolen device protection prevents your Apple ID password from being changed for one hour, so you have an option to cancel the request,” Ghazi said.
“And you also can’t change someone’s Apple ID from a place they don’t normally frequent.” You need to make sure that this feature is enabled on your phone. Here’s how to do it: Go to your settings and under “face ID and passcode” set “stolen device protection”.
Ghazi also recommends enabling facial recognition on your devices for biometric protection.
How to keep your devices safe from criminals? What should be done to make the phone even more difficult for criminals to crack?
Do not save passwords in notes. Instead, download a password manager that encrypts the information.
Your screen lock time should be set to the fastest setting so it locks quickly after you put the phone down.
All your financial applications should be configured with multi-factor authentication.
If you meet a stranger and are trying to share your contact information, don’t give them your phone to add the number yourself.
Security experts say this could lead to a trap.They can hang up to make you enter your code – but if they see you enter the number, they can target you later when you least expect it.

SportsThis is no fairy tale, but the story of a great striker, who is back doing what he knows best: scoring heavy goals. Really, really heavy. Sebastien Haller is undoubtedly the national hero of Ivory Coast, capable of winning the Africa Cup of Nations at home, defeating Nigeria in an upset.
The Borussia Dortmund striker had a dream night. All just a few months after I went through the worst nightmare of my life. Haller had just arrived in Germany when he discovered the grim diagnosis: testicular cancer. The striker was forced to stop to fight the most important battle of his life, the one against cancer.
An uphill battle, which saw him undergo two surgeries and face four rounds of chemotherapy before he was finally able to return to the field. After returning to the field, Haller experienced another nightmare, albeit only on a sports level, last season.
In fact, his penalty miss on the final day of the Bundesliga cost Borussia Dortmund the title. A sensational mistake, given that Haller’s previous penalty miss was in 2017. This season, Haller has played just 13 games for Borussia Dortmund between the Bundesliga and the Champions League, without scoring a single goal.
Not the best way to face the Africa Cup of Nations at home, to say the least. Haller was not at his best at the Africa Cup of Nations either, missing the first three group stage matches through injury.
Therefore, his debut came only in the 1/8 finals, but the Borussia Dortmund striker was practically not seen until the semi-finals. So that’s where his decisive goal against Congo came, and the very heavy one in the final, when his classy shot allowed Ivory Coast to overcome Nigeria and win an almost unexpected trophy.
On the other hand, Haller’s career is already full of records. The Ivory Coast striker, for example, was the first player to score in his first six Champions League appearances, as well as the fastest player to reach 10 Champions League goals, in just 6 games.
Furthermore, Haller is one of two players to have scored more than 4 goals on his Champions League debut, along with Marco van Basten. Finally, as of last night, Haller is also the first player to score the winning goal in an African Cup of Nations final for Ivory Coast.

Business TrendingJob interviews can be awkward, especially for provocative questions like ‘what is your biggest weakness’ or ‘what would you do in a stressful situation’.
So one can imagine that in large corporations like Google something like this would be nerve wracking.
But a former employee of the tech giant recently revealed which question candidates got stuck on the most.
The young woman who claims to have worked for companies such as Google, Wix, and Rocket Money as a personnel manager, explains on the TikTok network about the questions that are supposed to separate “alum from sugar”.
User @hrbitch explains the question: “There’s a coffee shop in San Francisco with unlimited supply and demand, meaning it has all the coffee products, service tools, and a long line of customers waiting to buy.”
“The store is about 150 square meters. Tell me how much coffee does this shop sell in a day?”, she says about the tricky question, which according to her is the most unexpected for the interviewed candidates.
Several TikTok users gave their theories on the correct answer and flooded the comments section with ideas.
One of them replied: “Zero – it does not produce anything, because it did not mention employees.”
Another wrote: “It takes 30 seconds to fill the coffee cup, so about 120 coffees per hour, if it stays open for eight hours, that’s about 1000 coffees.”
The ideas were different, but finally the former chief of staff revealed the answer according to her.
She said: “There is no right or wrong answer because the interviewer is only trying to understand your way of thinking, so the details are unspecified, to understand your decision-making skills.”
But Google’s website says the company no longer uses confusing questions in its interviews.
“We just want to assess skills and if they fit the role, we don’t have confusing questions and our interviews are a lot of fun.”

LifeStyle Technology USAAn elderly couple claims to have seen an unidentified flying object last week while photographing birds in a tree near San Pedro de Colalao, on the northern side of the country.
“I said to my husband, ‘Look, there’s a black bird flying here,'” Rina Juárez told Jam Press.”Then my husband said: ‘It’s not a bird, it’s a flying saucer.’
Juárez was able to snap photos of the oval-shaped object as it headed toward some mountains.
“I noticed it was at the same height as the power cables, but then I watched it go higher and higher,” she recalls.
She showed the photos to her grandchildren, who were “amazed” by the images and her account of the vacation.
“I had to see this in my life,” Juárez added. “You had to see it to believe it.”

SportsChina has announced that it will cancel hosting two friendlies that were scheduled for Argentina’s national team.
This decision came after protests over the absence and behavior of Messi, who did not take the field in Hong Kong with Inter Miami, provoking the anger of the local government which is effectively controlled by the Chinese.
As well as the fact that just 3 days later, Messi played in Inter Miami’s challenge against Vissel Kobe in Tokyo.
Argentina’s national team had announced a tour of the Asian country from March 18 to 26, during which they would face Nigeria in Hangzhou and Ivory Coast in Beijing. But the controversy surrounding the world champion, who until a few days ago was very popular in China, has intensified in recent days.
Spectators in Hong Kong who had paid up to 570 euros for a ticket to see Messi on the field, expressed their indignation for Messi’s absence but also for his behavior, as he did not address the public to apologize.
Meanwhile, the Chinese Football Federation published a statement announcing that the Asian country will not host Argentina’s scheduled friendlies for March.
“Many football fans have recently been looking for information about Lionel Messi’s match in Beijing. “After the verifications made by our services, Beijing does not currently plan to organize a match in which Lionel Messi would participate,” reads the statement of the Chinese Federation.
The cancellation of the tour in China is a blow to the Argentine Federation, which considers the Asian colossus a strategic market and where it has numerous sponsorship or cooperation contracts with local companies.
Meanwhile, the Chinese daily “Global Times”, known for its nationalist positioning, in an editorial published this week implied that the behavior of Inter Miami and Messi in Hong Kong were politically motivated.
Hong Kong authorities have been regularly targeted by the United States and the United Kingdom since the semi-autonomous territory adopted a national security law that helps silence political opposition.

Technology USAGoogle announced the renaming of Bard to Gemini. Sissie Hsiao, vice president and general manager, Gemini experiences (formerly Bard) and Google Assistant said: “Since we launched Bard last year, people around the world have been using it to engage with Artificial Intelligence in a completely new way. re – to prepare for job interviews, develop new business ideas or, as we announced last week, creating compelling images.
Our mission with Bard from the beginning has been to provide direct access to our AI models, and Gemini represents our most capable family of models. To highlight this fact, Bard will now be known as Gemini.
With the Pro 1.0 model it is possible to chat with Gemini in more than 40 languages and in more than 230 countries and geographies. Now, we’re introducing two new experiences – Gemini Advanced and a mobile app (not yet available in Europe) – that will help users easily collaborate with Google’s best AI.”
As announced, with the Ultra 1.0 model, Gemini Advanced is much more adept at highly complex tasks such as programming, deductive reasoning, following expert guidance, and collaborating on creative projects. Gemini Advanced not only allows users to have longer and more detailed conversations, but also better understands the broader context through previous questions. For example:
● Gemini Advanced can become citizens’ personal tutor – creating step-by-step tutorials, sample quizzes or discussion circles to suit your learning style.
● It can help with more advanced coding scenarios, acting as a brainstormer and helping you evaluate different coding approaches.
● Can help digital creators move from concept to execution by creating fresh content, analyzing the latest trends and devising improved ways to grow their audience.
“This first version of Gemini Advanced reflects our latest progress in AI reasoning and will continue to improve. As we add new exclusive features, Gemini Advanced users will have access to enhanced polymorphic capabilities, more interactive coding features, deeper data analysis capabilities, and more. Gemini Advanced is available today in more than 150 countries and geographies, in English, and we will expand it to more languages over time.

SportsThe semi-final match of the Africa Cup between DR Congo and Ivory Coast, has presented a special episode before the ball rolled on the field of play.
The DR Congo footballers have decided to hold a unique protest in front of the cameras, in a message of awareness about what is happening in their country.
The players, instead of singing their country’s anthem, put a gun-like hand to their head and covered their mouths with the other.
They had decided this as a way of raising public awareness of what is happening in the African country, which is facing a humanitarian crisis after the massacres of the M23 rebel group.
The Tutsi ethnic group is at war with the government and is responsible for many massacres in different areas of the country, including women and children.
Most recently, he attacked the city of Sake, displacing an estimated 1 million people from the countryside and surrounding areas in an unprecedented crisis.
Yesterday players for DR Congo national team staged a silent protest ahead of their AFCON game with Ivory Coast.

Therefore, the players thought that by appearing on the continent’s most important football stage in this way, they would show the world what their country was currently suffering, in an armed conflict that has lasted for many years.

TravelLow-cost airlines have tried in every way to reduce hand luggage in recent months. Thus, it is not uncommon for them to ask passengers to hand over their luggage, even if it is brought into the cabin. The only downside is that your suitcase travels at the back of the plane and you’re not entirely sure you’ll find it when you get to your destination.
After all, it is quite possible for a suitcase to arrive late – even a few days late – or to be lost indefinitely. Therefore, a very good advice is that the checked baggage should never contain items that we need immediately, such as wallets (with documents or money) or house keys.
According to a recent survey by , a company specializing in the management of air passenger complaints, Madrid’s Adolfo Suarez-Barajas airport is the airport that receives the most complaints about lost luggage in Europe.
In 2023, 26.5% of all complaints were registered there. The second airport with the highest number of lost luggage complaints last year is also in Spain and is Barcelona’s El Prat, where 13.2% of complaints handled by Reclamio were recorded.
In third place is Lisbon’s Humerto Delgado airport with 5.8% of complaints, followed by Paris’s Orly Airport with 2.7% of complaints. Finally, the top five is rounded off by Palma de Mallorca airport, with 2.4% of lost luggage complaints registered there.

TechnologyApple has already banned the sale of its latest smartwatch models, launched in September, after the ruling found it guilty of infringing another company’s patent.
If one visits the company’s website, they will see that in the advertisement for the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2, it is written that the specific models are “not available at this time”.
Of course, the ban only applies to Apple’s online or physical stores in the US. Third-party retailers will continue to sell these two models while supplies last.
How did we get to this point?
The ban on the sale of the new smartwatch comes after the US Trade Commission ruled that Apple copied Masimo’s patented technology.
Both retired watches have a feature that monitors the wearer’s blood oxygen levels. After December 24, Apple will not be able to import the Apple Watch from abroad.
How much will the recall cost Apple?
Halting sales of the two latest models could cost Apple between $300 million and $400 million in revenue. Apple says it is currently working on a software update that will fix the problem, according to Bloomberg. At the same time, he has stated that he will try to overturn the initial decision.
For his part, Masismo told Business Insider that the decision “proves that even the most powerful company in the world must abide by the law”. Masimo’s complaint was filed in 2020 and a decision was issued in October 2023. All this time, Apple regularly used the technology in question in its models.
Is Biden Apple’s Only Hope?
“This is not a random breach,” Joe Kiani, CEO and founder of Masimo, told Bloomberg. “This is a deliberate theft of our intellectual property,” he added. Kiani also claimed that Apple contacted and eventually hired 25 of its engineers.
Masimo’s CEO emphasized that he is open to reaching an agreement with Apple. If that doesn’t happen, Apple’s only hope is for President Biden to veto it, which now seems extremely unlikely.

Technology USAThe foldable smartphone market is growing more and more and it is a fact that many companies are turning to it to increase profitability. Apple has already presented its plans for the first foldable iPhone.
The goal of the iPhone is not only to enter this market, but also to replace the iPad mini category with the foldable iPhone. The technical characteristics of this new product have not been established yet, Apple is doing tests with different parameters, such as size, weight, screen diagonal, processor, etc.
In all of the above, we must also consider the scenario of iPads with OLED screens coming in the next period and show that the American company is already universally moving towards this technology. An OLED iPad Pro is expected to be introduced soon, while given the development of the foldable iPhone with an OLED screen, we won’t see an iPad mini with such features.
According to what emerges from the report, Apple is already working with Samsung Display and LG Display for the first samples of foldable screens, and will soon begin testing in larger sizes. As in many similar cases in the past, Apple will first proceed with Samsung Display and then also start a related collaboration with LG Display.
Apple may unveil its first foldable device in 2026 or 2027, with a 7-8 inch display. Uncertainty surrounds whether it will be a foldable iPhone or iPad.https://t.co/C8Mrg6TKbI
— Hindustan Times Tech (@HTTech) February 3, 2024
For 2028, the information so far speaks of an even bigger model in the foldable category that will probably be a new iPad or a new Mac. The coming months will be decisive in this matter.
