Who is Cyberleek? What we know about the GTA 6 leaker

On August 18, an entity named "Cyberleek" shared what is believed to be authentic gameplay footage from Grand Theft Auto 6, featuring the protagonist Jason. The footage showcased typical GTA activities and was removed from social media due to copyright claims from Take-Two and Rockstar. Cyberleek's leaks were not from testers but indicated access to a segment of GTA 6. They expressed consumer rights grievances and made three demands: no more digital preorders, no selling DLC already included in base game files, and mandatory offline fallback states for single-player games. Cyberleek is also promoting a cryptocurrency token, $Cyberleek, with a market cap of .1 million, allowing token holders to vote on gameplay clips to release. The timing of the leaks suggests a possible European origin, and investigations link Cyberleek to past posts on a German cybersecurity forum. There are indications that Cyberleek is not affiliated with Rockstar Games, and if identified, they could face significant consequences. Rockstar's official gameplay reveal for GTA 6 is scheduled for August 27.

I spent time with the August Windows 11 Insider builds, and these 8 changes reveal Microsoft’s next phase for the OS

In early August, there were no new Windows 11 builds released for over 15 days in the Windows Insider Program. On August 17, Microsoft released five new preview builds, introducing several features and enhancements. Key updates include a fully customizable context menu, allowing users to tailor options directly from Settings under Personalization, and improvements to the desktop background experience with higher resolution previews and better slideshow transitions. The Camera Roll backup feature now automatically backs up photos and videos to OneDrive. The Magnifier tool received a visual refresh, and the Windows Recovery Environment was upgraded to reuse eligible Wi-Fi profiles automatically. Microsoft also removed the Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line (WMIC) tool and the Drag Tray feature while maintaining access to WMI through PowerShell. File Explorer improvements include a faster launch for the "Home" page and touch scrolling support in the "Recommended" section. Minor visual adjustments were made to the Windows Security app, enhancing its alignment with the Windows 11 design language.

Microsoft is slowly breaking Windows Media Player Legacy to force people over to the new app

Windows Media Player Legacy will soon lose its "Lyrics, captions, and subtitles" feature, with users being directed to the newer version of Windows Media Player for access. In Windows 11 Build 29648, users receive an error message when trying to activate this feature in the Legacy app. The new user interface simplifies the feature toggle but results in the error message, indicating Microsoft's intention to phase out the Legacy app. Microsoft must address feature gaps to compete with VLC Player, which offers functionalities that the new Windows player lacks.
