The simple answer for me is no. Anyone is welcome to correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that Google is moving to enhance security for users who are at a higher risk of targeted attacks, such as journalists, activists, and public figures. They are implementing this under the guise of security.

Additionally, they appear to be seeking to protect the ecosystem against open-source developers and outside developers who choose not to use Chrome, the Play Store, or other Google-based offerings, effectively reinforcing the operating system to maintain control over the Google monopoly.

Google's reference to Apple is an admission of their plans in my opinion although I believe there is more to this which I won't go into.

Once APP is activated, many non-Google applications are blocked from accessing Google services, which can hinder the use of alternative apps that users might prefer. My question is: wouldn't the focus on monitoring and restricting access to accounts lead to concerns about surveillance and the extent to which Google monitors user behavior to enforce these protections?

It sounds like a slippery slope to me.

Nice haul! We also grow a similar variety but because we are organic we constantly battle squash vine borers, the tunneling messes in a big way with the fruits vascular system, leading to wilting, yellowing, and eventual fruit rot so we often have to harvest prematurely. Do you grow organically?

The DHS has promised travel assistance and a $1,000 "exit bonus" to migrants without legal permission to be in the US who voluntarily leave the country.

So it's 500,000 citizens of four countries to leave, does this mean that taxpayers need to pony up $500,000,000?

Law enforcement’s ability to track and profile political protestors has become increasingly multifaceted and technology driven. In this edition of Incognito Mode WIRED Senior Editor, Security & Investigations Andrew Couts and WIRED Senior Writer Lily Hay Newman discuss the technologies used by law enforcement that put citizens' privacy at risk—and how to avoid them.

 

As Mr. Musk entered President Trump’s orbit, his private life grew increasingly tumultuous and his drug use was more intense than previously known.

Hundreds of international students in the US are getting an email from the US Department of State (DOS) asking them to self-deport owing to campus activism. Immigration attorneys’ contacted by TOI affirmed this development and added a few Indian students may also be at the receiving end of such emails – for something as innocuous as sharing a social media post.

It is not just international students who physically participated in campus activism but also those who shared or liked ‘anti-national’ posts that are the target of these emails, said an immigration attorney.

This crackdown is based on social-media reviews being conducted by DOS (which includes Consulate officials). Thus, even new student applications be it for an F (academic study visa), M (vocational study visa) or J (exchange visa) will also come under such social media scrutiny.

Applicants will be denied the opportunity to study in the US.
