Hackers could have full access (!) to everything on the phones of WhatsApp users.
This was possible through a security issue disclosed by WhatsApp itself last week. All a hacker had to do to control your phone was send you a malicious video or start a video call with you on WhatsApp.
You are probably thinking "Yeah, but if I updated WhatsApp to the latest version, I am safe, right"?
Not really.
A WhatsApp security issue exactly like this one was discovered in 2018, then another in 2019 and yet another one in 2020 (tap each year's link to see the corresponding vulnerability). And yes, in 2017 before that. Prior to 2016, WhatsApp didn't have encryption at all.
Every year, we learn about some issue in WhatsApp that puts everything on their users' devices at risk. Which means it's almost certain that a new security flaw already exists there. Such issues are hardly incidental – they are planted backdoors. If one backdoor is discovered and has to be removed, another one is added (read the post "Why WhatsApp will never be secure" to understand why).
It doesn't matter if you are the richest person on earth – if you have WhatsApp installed on your phone, all your data from every app on your device is accessible, as Jeff Bezos found out in 2020. That's why I deleted WhatsApp from my devices years ago. Having it installed creates a door to get into your phone.
I'm not pushing people to switch to Telegram here. With 700M+ active users and 2M+ daily signups, Telegram doesn't need additional promotion. You can use any messaging app you like, but do stay away from WhatsApp – it has now been a surveillance tool for 13 years.

"As a result of the contract, the United States government and the private sector will be able to:
*Perform cross-market, crypto-financial mapping and analysis
*Provide insight into the use of blockchain-based technologies linked to money laundering, terrorist financing, and sanctions evasion
*Identify where recipients of crypto-currency can exchange it for local fiat currency, or goods and services, globally"
There are a LOT of taxpayer dollars dedicated to make sure you are paying what your respective ruling government deems as "fair." Remember that income tax was only ever "supposed" to be temporary.
There are always methods to get around this, but ideally you should reside in a place that treats you decently (or at least doesn't actively discriminate against you). No laws being broken on your end, living under a government that values you... should be easy enough, right?
If you are not a "US person" (citizen or permanent resident), it is. Simply establish legal residency in a country that suits you and you should be able to keep almost all of your wealth. That's why plenty of well-to-do Euro-Boomers get their "golden visa" in Portugal.
If you are a US person, it becomes a lot trickier. The IRS feel the right to be ennoscriptd to your income, no matter where you reside. With your SSN, you are branded as tax chattel, and must take significant steps to unchain yourselves.

More car hacking!
Earlier this year, we were able to remotely unlock, start, locate, flash, and honk any remotely connected Honda, Nissan, Infiniti, and Acura vehicles, completely unauthorized, knowing only the VIN number of the car.

Following the recent attacks on substations in North Carolina (see video), combatants on the west coast have followed suit. This is likely why many mainstream media outlets outside of the tricounty area refused to acknowledge the Moore County outages.
Leftists on Twitter and Reddit claim the woman responsible for the first attack was associated with the unauthorized protest that took place on January 6. From what I know, the feds have cleared her of any suspicion.
I hope you've taken the time and resources over the last couple years to adapt to potential grid-down scenarios. I have heard that if as little as 10-20 substations across the United States go under, the entire grid is in jeopardy of collapse. It could come to your area too.
US Federal agents are surely panicking to nip this in the bud as soon as they can. But with many types of unprotected infrastructure spread across the country, this will be a difficult task.
This may be a very dark winter.
