NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Apple's Mac computers are generally considered more secure than Windows PCs, thanks to the company's tight control over hardware and software.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Home Wi-Fi networks are the backbone of how most people get online, connecting laptops, phones, smart TVs and more. When properly secured, they offer a convenient and private way to browse the internet, stream content and work from home. But "private" doesn't always mean "safe."

Many of us rely on home networks every day without really knowing if they're as secure as they should be.Let's break down what makes a home Wi-Fi network secure, the risks you should know about a...

Eddy Cue deserves a raise.As the executive overseeing Apple’s services division, he’s highly incentivized to protect the tens of billions of dollars a year that Google pays to be the default search engine in Safari. “I’ve lost a lot of sleep thinking about it,” he said from the witness stand during Google’s antitrust trial earlier this year.Luckily for Cue, his court testimony appears to have had a significant impact on Judge Amit Mehta, who ruled this week that Google’s default payments to Apple and others can continue. You can see Cue’s arguments at trial mirrored in Mehta’s ruling: the Apple SVP said it would be “crazy” to punish the iPhone maker by restricting Google’s ability to pay for default status, and that the rise of AI companies was remaking the search market anyway. In an a...

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Rental car drivers are now turning to artificial intelligence to protect themselves from surprise damage fees. Major companies, such as Hertz and Sixt, have begun using automated inspection tools to detect scratches and dents. While these scanners promise efficiency, they have sparked backlash from renters who say they were unfairly billed for minor blemishes.To level the playing field, new consumer-focused apps are stepping in. Proofr, which launched recently, gives renters the ability to generate secure, time-stamped before-and-after photos of their vehicles. The app uses AI to detect even subtle changes, then encrypts and stores the images so they cannot be altered.Sign up for my FREE CyberGuy ReportGet my best tech tips, urgent security...
