You Can Now Choose Which Games Use Quick Resume On Xbox

Microsoft is rolling out updates for Xbox consoles and the Xbox PC app as part of the April Xbox update, following a successful testing phase with Xbox Insiders in March. The update includes improved Quick Resume functionality, allowing users to toggle it off for online games that require a stable internet connection. Additionally, users can now pin more groups of games to their home screen, select custom colors for the Xbox interface, and access their play history. The Xbox app for PC has been enhanced to allow any gamepad to control the mouse cursor, pin favorite games, and add installed apps or games to the Xbox library. These updates reflect a strategy initiated by new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma, who has also reduced the price of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate tier.

Windows AI Recall is pushing data destruction upstream

The introduction of Copilot+ PCs has created new complexities in IT asset disposition (ITAD), as these devices may contain a comprehensive, time-stamped archive of user activity, which was not present on corporate laptops two years ago. Microsoft's Recall feature captures user activity screenshots and stores them securely, but recent research by Alexander Hagenah suggests that the safeguards may be ineffective, as his tool can extract sensitive data without breaking encryption. Microsoft defends the security of Recall, stating that observed access patterns align with intended protections. This situation presents challenges for ITAD operators, as pre-collection now constitutes a data-destruction event, requiring devices to be powered down or purged before leaving the client’s environment. Certificates of sanitization must evolve to address the specific destruction of Recall snapshot stores, and conversations with clients should differentiate between managed and unmanaged fleets regarding Recall settings. The presence of Recall shifts some data-destruction responsibilities upstream to clients, complicating traditional ITAD value propositions.

Microsoft open-sources 86-DOS 1.00, the ancestor of Windows

Microsoft has made the source code for 86-DOS 1.00 available on GitHub to celebrate its 45th anniversary. 86-DOS, developed by Tim Paterson, was foundational for MS-DOS and Windows. This release is part of Microsoft's effort to preserve historically significant software. Microsoft previously released the source code for MS-DOS versions 1.25, 2.11, and 4.0. A team of historians and preservationists has gathered and transcribed DOS-era source listings, including the 86-DOS 1.00 kernel and development snapshots of the PC-DOS 1.00 kernel. Microsoft acquired 86-DOS from Seattle Computer Products for approximately ,000 and modified it to deliver PC-DOS 1.0 in August 1981, which became known as MS-DOS for IBM-compatible computers.

Are you still using Sign in with Google? Here’s why you should stop

Relying on a single Google account for access to various services poses significant vulnerabilities, including the risk of account lockout due to forgotten credentials, phishing attacks, or arbitrary bans. This centralized approach can lead to loss of access to critical data and services. Sophisticated phishing techniques, such as Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM) attacks, can compromise account security by mimicking legitimate login screens. Additionally, linking multiple services through a Google account contributes to a comprehensive digital footprint that Google can analyze, raising privacy concerns. To enhance digital security, users are advised to create standalone accounts for various services and utilize password managers like KeePass, Bitwarden, and 1Password to maintain unique credentials.

New Android spyware Morpheus linked to Italian surveillance firm

Morpheus is a new spyware identified by the nonprofit organization Osservatorio Nessuno, which spreads through counterfeit Android applications that appear as legitimate updates. Attackers use SMS messages to direct victims to a fraudulent website mimicking an Internet Service Provider (ISP). The spyware installs a dropper app that deploys a concealed payload, which disguises itself as legitimate system components and manipulates users into granting dangerous permissions, including Accessibility access. Once granted, Morpheus initiates a Permission Workflow that creates a fake update overlay, disabling the touchscreen to prevent user interaction. It ensures persistence by restarting after device reboots and can request device administrator privileges. The spyware exploits overlay windows and Accessibility features to gain control of the device and bypass security measures, including disabling antivirus solutions without requiring root access. Analysis suggests Morpheus has Italian origins, with connections to an Italian firm, IPS Intelligence, known for lawful interception technologies. The spyware is capable of invasive actions such as recording audio and video, linking to WhatsApp, and compromising device security. The report highlights a network of dubious companies and shared contacts linked to the spyware's distribution.

How to turn off Meta AI (Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp)

Meta AI has been integrated into Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger, enhancing user experiences with features like search functionalities, chat interactions, and content generation. Users express a desire to limit their interactions with Meta AI due to concerns about transparency, privacy, and data security. The AI model is trained on diverse data sources, including public posts and user interactions, raising issues regarding data control. On WhatsApp, personal messages and calls are end-to-end encrypted, while Instagram may share past messages with Meta AI for context. Security vulnerabilities have been reported, including incidents of data mishandling. Currently, there is no comprehensive option to disable Meta AI across all platforms, but users can take steps to limit interactions, such as muting AI prompts and adjusting privacy settings. Users in the E.U. and U.K. can object to certain data uses under GDPR by submitting requests through their Meta accounts. To protect privacy, users are advised to opt out of AI training, limit personal data sharing, and use privacy tools like VPNs.

Old School Runescape Leagues’ regional restrictions have only fueled my love for Varlamore

Old School Runescape has introduced a new continent, Varlamore, and a Sailing update for exploration. The limited-time Leagues mode restricts access to certain areas, allowing players to unlock them progressively. The current Leagues iteration, Demonic Pacts, provides powerful Relics and an XP multiplier, enabling rapid progression through endgame content. Varlamore was launched in March 2024 and is the first starting zone designated by Jagex. Players can explore the entire region for the first time in this Leagues season. The author has unlocked five out of eight Relic tiers and is exploring new gameplay strategies, such as mining Blessed Bone Shards and engaging more with the Hunter skill. The Leagues mode has encouraged both newcomers and returning players to experience Gielinor in new ways.

Valve’s new Steam Controller has a major problem for PC games not on Steam

The new Steam Controller lacks native Windows drivers, making it dependent on the Steam application for functionality. This means it cannot be used effectively with games from other platforms like the Epic Games Store or Xbox Game Pass, as it cannot interface with locked files on Windows 11. Gamers wanting to play titles like Forza Horizon 6 via Game Pass must purchase them directly from Steam to use the controller. While Valve could release standard Windows drivers to address this issue, there is skepticism about their willingness to do so. The gaming community previously developed a tool called GlosSI to enable the original Steam Controller to work with non-Steam applications, and a similar solution may emerge for the new model.
