NEW: Neon, an app that pays you to record your calls so your audio can be used to train AI, and already rose to the top #5 free apps on Apple's App Store, has gone offline after a security lapse.
We found the app exposed users' phone numbers, call recordings, and text transcripts of those calls.

Exclusive: Neon takes down app after exposing users' phone numbers, call recordings, and transcripts
Call recording app Neon was one of the top-ranked iPhone apps, but was pulled offline after a security bug allowed any logged-in user to access the call recordings and transcripts of any other user.

Hi liberals, people can die sooner because Covid accelerates their underlying condition. It happens all the time
Lots of more important battles to fight right now than minimizing this virus
Lots of more important battles to fight right now than minimizing this virus
The “they’re not testing for it anymore so we don’t know how many really are dying of covid” people are explicitly arguing that bodies are showing up in the morgue and the coroner is like “damn that’s crazy, no way to figure this one out” and issuing an incomplete death certificate
It's always a little jarring about how much pushback I get to the extremely well-established fact that COVID deaths have fallen since 2022.
It's true that clinics stopped routine testing and case/hospitalization data sucks but death reporting is the same as it's always been. Vaccines work!

Tesla is being hit with $329m in damages for a crash in which the human driver says he knew Autopilot wasn't self-driving. This is super important, because it shows that Autopilot's design and marketing can induce inattention even when drivers consciously know they are supposed to pay attention.

What if COVID doesn't just make sick, but makes us easier to infect?
Experts say the virus is chipping away at our immune systems. But some aren’t convinced.
I spoke with doctors, scientists, and parents caught in a relentless cycle of illness, and here's what I found:

Is COVID quietly sabotaging our immune systems?
Experts are increasingly coalescing around the view that COVID has weakened our immune systems, leaving us vulnerable to other infections

I can’t shut up about it but for real, why not just show a ten second clip of each actor? Show why they were nominated. Having another actor describe it is a fucking weird choice.
