Typing in your password - it's not as safe as you might think 

With the help of AI, the researchers could effectively create a unique identifier for how you strike each key, and use that to figure out what you're typing. Each key has an ever-so-slightly different sound based on how we type and where the key is pressed. 

In their experiment, they only needed the key to be pressed 25 times to create the link. To build this, they need to know what you initially typed as you typed it - which could be done via Zoom chat messages or filling in a form. Once they have that, they just need to listen to your type and they could gather passwords, private messages... anything that you type. 

How do you get around that? A password manager that automatically copies in the password is a great way! Or having music, key stroke simulators, or white noise. 

 

X has relaunched Tweetdeck as X Pro 

And you guessed it… you now need to pay for it. I'm not surprised. I always thought Twitter should have done this and I think pre-Elon Musk, many social media managers and journalists would have been happy to.
