If you’re an Android user who is tired of being insulted in a group chat by iPhone users because your presence causes the text bubbles to turn green and downgrades the service from iMessage to SMS, pay attention to this. When Android users chatting via RCS (Rich Communication Service) allow an iPhone user to join the group, the same thing happens and the service is downgraded from RCS to SMS. Character limits return, image and video quality drops, read receipts and typing indicators are disabled.
The only difference between iMessage and RCS is that Android users don’t make a big stink when an iPhone user interrupts an RCS chat session. But it soon won’t matter anyway when the Sunbird Message app launches. Currently in Alpha testing, Sunbird is a universal messaging app that will allow Android users to pass themselves off as iOS users during a group chat. There will be no green bubbles in sight and all iMessage features will be available to Android users with the app installed.
Right now you can join the waitlist by tapping on this link or by directing your browser to www.sunbirdapp.com. The list is pretty long and this writer is number 91257. There are ways to move up the list if you don’t mind referring the app to other Android users. When your number is up, you will receive an email inviting you to join a closed beta.
The good news is that Sunbird Messaging will be free, at least for the foreseeable future. Sunbird writes, “We don’t have any reason to turn on paid subscriptions right now just based on our goals. Right now we have one goal in mind to give iMessage on Android to millions of users. Let’s connect the world first.”
Sunbird will work over Wi-Fi and cellular networks although you could be hit with data usage if Wi-Fi is not available. The platform takes less than a minute to set up and you’ll need less than 5 minutes to add iMessage to your Android phone. Since this will be a global platform, the app will also be available in Samsung’s Galaxy App Store and Huawei’s AppGallery.
It is important to know that a fake Sunbird app was discovered in the Google Play store. It contains adware and might have malicious code. Do not download it. All you can do with the legit Sunbird Messaging app is join the waitlist or by joining Sunbird Messaging’s Discord you can install the Alpha app.
A unified inbox will give app users access to their WhatsApp, FB Messenger (Meta), SMS accounts. Eventually, support will be added allowing users to see their inboxes for Telegram, Discord, RCS, Slack, and more.
Both suspects, Sagar Steven Singh and Nicholas Ceraolo, were reportedly members of a notorious cybercrime group, ViLE.
Two US citizens have been charged with hacking into the US DEA online portal using fake emergency data requests from hijacked government and police email accounts. Their primary objective was to blackmail and extort victims.
According to the press release from the US Department of Justice, the two accused hacked into the US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) online portal, which is connected to sixteen federal government law enforcement databases.
The two suspects are allegedly associated with a criminal organization that specializes in making fake emergency data requests via compromised email accounts of police and government officials to extort their victims.
The Eastern District of New York prosecutors unsealed criminal complaints against the two accused, 19-year-old Sagar Steven Singh from Pawtucket, Rhode Island, and 25-year-old Nicholas Ceraolo from Queens, NY.
The complaint (PDF) revealed that on May 7, 2022, Singh, aka Weep, logged into a US federal government portal using stolen credentials. The agency name was not disclosed in the complaint, but it did mention that the portal offered access to databases maintained by the US agency that tracks narcotics seizures. Additionally, cybersecurity journalist Brian Krebs reported that the targeted agency was the DEA.
Singh and Ceraolo, aka Ominus and Convict, were reportedly members of a notorious cybercrime group, ViLE. This group specializes in obtaining private data about third-party victims and using it to harass, threaten, or extort them. The two were also staff members for Doxbin.
The DEA portal hacking involved Doxbin’s current administrator, KT, who has been referred to in the government’s complaint as CC-1. This individual is listed at the top of ViLE’s official roster, followed by Weep and Ominus.
As per the government, the defendants and other ViLE members used different methods to access their victims’ private information, such as tricking customer service personnel, sending fake legal processes to social media companies to obtain users’ registration details, corrupting company employees, illegally accessing non-public US government databases and email accounts of foreign officials, and searching for private/public online databases.
When the gang obtained a victim’s data, the two accused would post it on an online forum, which the government calls Forum-1, administered by ViLE leader/CC-1.
“Victims are extorted into paying CC-1 to have their information removed from Forum-1. Singh also uses the threat of revealing personal information to extort victims into giving him access to their social media accounts, which Singh then resells,” prosecutors alleged.
Singh’s residence was raided on September 8, 2022, and investigators seized a cellphone and laptop allegedly containing evidence of DEA portal access.
Moreover, the complaint stated that between February and May 2022, Ceraolo used a Bangladeshi police official’s email account to impersonate him as the individual was in contact with the US-based social media platforms.
“In these communications, Ceraolo requested personal information about users of these platforms, under the false pretense that the users were committing crimes or in life-threatening danger,” the government noted.
One of the perks of using web browsers on your desktop is the selection of extensions that you can add to them. They add additional functionality to your browsing. Think of them as the equivalent of downloading apps to your phone. Firefox has been testing browser extensions for its mobile app, and now they’re available for the public.
So, if you’re looking to add and use these add-ons to improve your browsing experience, you can. But, how do you install them? How do you access and use them after you’ve gotten the add-ons? Here’s a handy guide to show you how to.
In case you don’t know what browser extensions are
So, web browsers come with a selection of features that define the whole browsing experience. However, there could always be more that it can do. It’s possible to add additional functionality to your browser that the developer didn’t originally put in it. It’s possible to add more features to the browser through what are called browser extensions.
Browser extensions can be thought of as little programs that you can install onto your browser that perform certain tasks. These extensions are typically developed by third-party developers. A developer can make an extension to do just about anything.
There are all types of extensions that you can add on desktop browsers like Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. These include voice-to-text dictation extensions, spell-check extensions, picture-in-picture extensions, and thousands more. However, for Firefox mobile, there are far fewer.
How to install browser extensions on Firefox Mobile
The first thing you’ll want to do is download the Firefox app or make sure that you’re using the most up-to-date version of it. Open the app and access the three-dot menu on either the top or bottom of the screen. There, in the top section, you’ll see the Add-ons menu item. Tapping on it will open the browser extension sub-menu.
The extensions menu
You’ll see the list of all of the available add-ons that you can install. While there are thousands of add-ons for desktop browsers, there are only 22 at the time of writing this article. The company is currently working on delivering more extensions, so you’ll see the list get longer as time goes on.
Each item will show you the title of the add-on, a short description of it, and its rating between one and five stars. Tap on the item to see additional information on it. You’ll see information like a longer description, the author, the version number it’s on, when it was last updated, and a link to the homepage.
Adding the extensions
If you want to add the browser extension, tap on the “+” button on the right side of the item. When you do that, you’ll see a little popup appear showing you the permissions that the extension needs to function. Review those permissions carefully and decide if you want to give those permissions.
If you’re comfortable, tap on the Add button on the bottom right. After that, the browser will download and install the add-on. When it’s installed, you’ll see another pop-up appear giving you the option to allow the extension while in private mode. After that, you’re good to go.
Managing the add-ons
When you access the three-dot menu again, you’ll see a little arrowhead on the Add-ons button. When you tap on it, you’ll see the list of some of your installed extensions pop up at the bottom of the screen. If you want to add more extensions, tap on the Add-ons Manager button at the bottom.
When you do that, you’ll see the list of all available extensions just as before. Only, the extensions you’ve installed will be pinned to the top.
If you tap on an extension that you’ve already installed, you’ll see a different page pop up. you’ll see the toggle to enable/disable it along with the toggle to allow/disallow it to run in private mode. Under those, you’ll see the Settings, Details, and Permissions buttons.
Lastly, you’ll see the Remove button under all of those options. When you tap it, the browser will remove it immediately. There’s no confirmation screen, so you’ll want to be careful not to press it by accident.
Some recommended add-ons
Read Aloud: A Text to Speech Voice Reader is a handy plug-in to install if you want to have your text read back to you. This is also an extension that you can install on the desktop version of Chrome. It’s a useful tool that will read back any selected text.

Did you know they were making an official movie about Blackberry and that there’s a trailer that was just released? Maybe, maybe not. Either way, the official Blackberry movie trailer is out and it’s worth a watch. Because the trailer is bound to give you a few laughs and at the very least, it’ll get you excited to see the film when it comes out later this year.
The interesting bit, is not that there’s a movie being made about Blackberry at all. But that it’s seemingly going to be a pretty hilarious film. It’s not a full-on comedy mind you. Rather, it’s a drama that appears to have pockets of comedy that guide the viewer from serious moment to serious moment. The film itself is about the rise and fall of Blackberry. It stars Glenn Howerton (It’s Always Sunny in Philidelphia) and Jay Baruchel (Tropic Thunder, This is the End, the How to Train Your Dragon series) as the co-CEOs of Canadian technology company Research In Motion.
It also stars SungWon Cho, an American voice actor well-known for his hilarious comedy skits on YouTube. If you’re looking for a comparison for the film, it gives off some serious ‘Halt and Catch Fire’ vibes. Just with less chaos and backstabbing. Judging by the trailer at least.
The Blackberry movie comes out May 12
With the release of the first official trailer today, fans interested in seeing the film now have a release date to look forward to. The movie will be coming out May 12 in theaters. It’ll also likely hit streaming services eventually.
The trailer can be viewed above if you want a sneak peek at what’s to come. The movie definitely looks like a good way to spend a couple hours. It can however, certainly be more than that. Blackberry was a majorly influential company in the world of smartphones. And the film will do its part to out together the pieces of the story that consumers may have never known.
It also appears to do a good job of making the world of geek and tech culture more entertaining.
Google has introduced, and announced via a blog post, a set of AI-powered writing features in Docs and Gmail to select beta users, allowing Workspace users to leverage the power of creative AI for creativity, connection, and collaboration.
Users will be able to use these features to draft, reply, summarize, and prioritize their Gmail ideas as well as proofread, write, and rewrite in Docs. Although this is where it will start, the plan in the future is to expand to the rest of the Google Workspace applications, such as by generating images, audio, and video in Slides, as well as automatically generating formulas and insights in Sheets.
For now, Google is making these tools available in Gmail and Docs, which will help save time and effort when writing first drafts of a resume, an event invitation, or a professional email. You will only need to enter in the subject you want to write about, and an initial draft will be produced for you right away. This will provide a base that you can then edit and improve upon, which you will also be able to do with the help of the AI partner.
Where things will also get interesting is in Gmail with the introduction of an “I’m feeling lucky” button inside the Gmail application, which can help you re-write that email you’re not so sure about. You can use this tool to apply the appropriate tone of voice if an email needs to sound more formal. Additionally, you can take notes that you have taken on your phone and plug those in to turn them into a more cohesive thought or summary.
In its announcement, Google was clear to mention that “AI is no replacement for the ingenuity, creativity, and smarts of real people,” and thus this technology is not perfect and will have its quirks. Considering this, Google is developing this tool in compliance with Google’s AI Principles, which are intended to keep the user in control by allowing the AI to make recommendations that the user is able to approve, modify, and change. In addition, Workspace admins can rest assured that the corresponding measures will be put into place to allow I.T. professionals to apply the appropriate policies for their organization.
As more people use and provide input on AI-based tools, those tools will improve. Google plans on releasing these new features later this month, beginning with the English-speaking market in the USA with members of its trusted tester program. Once it has gone through its proper paces, Google intends to improve on the experience and eventually make this available for the masses.
A powerful new AI model called GPT-4 has been released recently by OpenAI, which is capable of comprehending images and texts. The company describes this as the next-stage milestone in its effort to scale up deep learning.
In November 2022, ChatGPT was launched and has since been used by millions of people worldwide. The all-new GPT-4 is now available through ChatGPT Plus, while it is the paid GPT subscription option of OpenAI available for $20 per month.
However, currently, there is a cap on the usage amount, and to access the API, the developers need to be registered on a waitlist.
The GPT-4 can also perform a number of tasks at once, with a maximum word count of 25,000. That is eight times more than the ChatGPT can.
Pricing & Implementation
Here below, we have mentioned the pricing tags:-
For 1,000 “prompt” tokens (Raw text), which is about 750 words will cost $0.03.
For 1,000 “completion” tokens (Raw text), which is about 750 words will cost $0.06.
A prompt token is part of a word that has been fed into GPT-4 in order for it to function. While the content that is generated by the GPT-4 is referred to as completion tokens.
In addition, Microsoft recently announced that it is using the GPT-4 version for its Bing Chat chatbot. Since the investment from Microsoft into OpenAI has amounted to $10 billion.
Stripe is another early adopter of GPT-4, which uses it to scan business websites. By doing so, it provides a summary of the results to customer service staff as part of the scanning process.
A new subscription tier for language learning has been developed by Duolingo based on the GPT-4. In order to provide financial analysts with access to information retrieved from company documents, Morgan Stanley is creating a GPT-4-powered system.
It appears that Khan Academy is also working towards automating some sort of tutoring process using GPT-4 that can help students.
A simulated bar exam was given to GPT-4, and it performed particularly well in it, as it managed to achieve scoring around the top 10% of test takers. Interestingly, GPT-3.5, on the other hand, scored in the bottom 10% of the group.
GPT-4 Action
The GPT-4 algorithm is a form of generative artificial intelligence, similar to the ChatGPT algorithm. With the help of algorithms and predictive text, the generating AI constructs the content based on the prompts that are presented by the user.
As you can see in the image below, GPT-4 generates recipes based on images that have been uploaded.
The reasoning skills of GPT-4 are more advanced than those of ChatGPT. In order to find available meeting times, the model can, for instance, search for three schedules with three available times.
In short, the GPT-4 is much smarter and more capable as compared to the GPT-3.5. GPT-4 is capable of receiving and processing textual and visual information, one of its most impressive features.
At the moment, it is not yet possible for OpenAI customers to utilize the image understanding capability of GPT-4. However, currently, OpenAI is testing this technology with only one partner, Be My Eyes.
OpenAI has warned that, just like its predecessors, the GPT-4 is still not entirely reliable. This model needs to be further improved by the entire community by building on top of the model, exploring it, and contributing to it through collective efforts.
There is still a lot of work to be done, and the company affirmed that they are looking forward to working together to improve it.
Over the past few weeks, Android Auto and Google Maps on vehicle infotainment systems haven’t been working together perfectly. Using both platforms while driving hasn’t been as smooth as users expect. The Google Maps integration into the Android Auto platform has been facing serious GPS issues.
These issues are a result of some upgrades to the Google Maps platform. With this upgrade, the integration between the two platforms hasn’t been working perfectly. This has led to difficulties in navigating, as the GPS location feature was directly affected by this upgrade.
Lots of users have been complaining about this issue over the past few weeks. A reliable source has provided a fix to this issue to help Android Auto users rely on their map navigations once again. Here is everything you need to know about this quick fix.
A fix to the Android Auto and Google Maps integration issue
If you use Android Auto and Google Maps on your vehicle, you might notice this navigation issue. It prompts the system to display false routes and incorrect GPS locations. This is quite misleading, especially while navigating an area which you aren’t familiar with.
An actual fix to the cause of this issue is not available at this moment. But there is now a way to work around it to avoid getting wrong directions and GPS locations while driving. The available fix involves your Android device since your car’s infotainment system relies on it to run Android Auto.
So, on your Android device, long press on the Google Maps app icon then select the app info option. This is located at the top right-hand side of the pop-up window that will appear on your screen. Pressing the app info button will redirect you to the app’s settings.
You will find a list of settings options, select the “Permission” button, which is the second on the list. This will pull up a list of permissions that you can grant the Google Maps app. Now select the first option on the list which is “Location” this will pull up another window.
In this new window are four options to select from on how you want the Maps app to access your device’s location. To fix the Android Auto and Google Maps navigation issue, you need to check the “Allow all the time” option. This will help Google Maps on the vehicle to make use of your device’s location as you drive.
According to available sources, this navigation issue is a result of Android Auto treating the Google Maps app as a background app. The fix will prevent your car’s Android Auto system from using its built-in antenna, hence making it rely on your device’s real-time location. You can also take the steps mentioned above on the Google Maps app on your car’s navigation system.
After missing an interest payment last month, Bally Sports owner, Diamond Sports Group (DSG) entered into a 30-day grace period. Where it needed to pay its bills, or file for bankruptcy. Well, after using up almost the entire 30-day grace period, DSG has decided to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
DSG has agreed to terms with the majority of creditors, which has allowed them to eliminate over $8 billion in debt. This clears the way for DSG to restructure and attempt to continue to broadcast games as a standalone company.
“Diamond intends to use the proceedings to restructure and strengthen its balance sheet, while continuing to broadcast quality live sports productions to fans across the nation. DSG expects that its Bally Sports regional networks will continue to operate in the ordinary course during the Chapter 11 process,” said the company in a statement.
What does this mean for the upcoming MLB season?
For Baseball fans, this really couldn’t have come at a worse time. With Opening Day about two weeks away. But DSG says that it will continue to broadcast the games of the 42 teams that it has broadcast rights to.
That does not include the handful of teams that Bally Sports dropped the rights to earlier this week. Those included the Arizona Diamondbacks, Cincinnati Reds, Cleveland Guardians, and San Diego Padres. The MLB would broadcast them instead, on MLB.TV in-market.
After the bankruptcy announcement, the MLB did reaffirm that it is able to step in and continue to provide fans access to their teams should Diamond fall short of their agreements. “Despite Diamond’s economic situation, there is every expectation that they will continue televising all games they are committed to during the bankruptcy process,” the MLB said in a prepared statement. Also stating that “Major League Baseball is ready to produce and distribute games to fans in their local markets in the event that Diamond or any other regional sports network is unable to do so as required by their agreement with our clubs.”

Heey, it’s been two years since Spotify announced Spotify HiFi. Not to mention that more than a year has passed since the company indefinitely delayed the release. So, come on, in today’s day and age, where everyone is rushing to do the next big thing, there’s no real hope for Spotify HiFi to make a comeback, right? Well, apparently not! Company co-president Gustav Söderström sat down for an interview with The Verge, where he basically confirmed that Spotify is still working on the best way to provide high quality music to its audiophilic users.
Söderström commented that Spotify had to postpone the release of this high-end tier of music streaming in order to better adapt to the market. He gives very few details from there on out, but HiFi costs and deals with music labels were mentioned as factors too.
Regardless, Spotify is still one of the staple music streaming platforms, so it is doing pretty good even without HiFi songs.
Söderström went on to state that Spotify wants to do something unique with HiFi. By the sound of things, the plan isn’t to just follow the established trend and copy what the competitors are up to, but come up with a unique way to deliver on this upgraded service.That being said, the co-president is confident about Spotify HiFi still being on the table. While no specific end-date has been mentioned, as per Söderström’s own words, it will be a real thing at “some” — undefined, and likely distant — point in time.
Why distant? Well, because Spotify is currently quite busy with redesigning major UI elements or figuring out ways to incorporate AI into its platform. One of the major talking points of the interview is centered around the fact that Spotify is looking to copy some of TikTok’s homework. While HiFi audio is certainly a great selling point, it doesn’t seem to be that important for now.
The cybersecurity analysts at CloudSEK recently asserted that monthly YouTube videos containing links to stealer malware, such as Vidar, RedLine, and Raccoon, have increased by 200-300% since November 2022.
These videos are supposed to be tutorials; however, it has been reported that they are instructions on getting pirated versions of licensed software, such as:-
Adobe Photoshop
Premiere Pro
Autodesk 3ds Max
AutoCAD
This software can only be acquired by paying, but threat actors claim to provide the proper instructional guide to obtain them for free in these videos.
According to the report shared by CloudSEK to cybersecuritynews.com, hackers are using YouTube video links to spread malware. A common technique used by cyber criminals is to post a video that appears to be legitimate but contains a malicious link in the description or within the video itself.
Information Stealer Ecosystem
Infostealer is specifically designed to steal sensitive information from the target computer. For example, it can steal passwords, credit card numbers, bank account numbers, and other sensitive information from the target system.
The intruder installs the info stealer system onto the computer. Once it is activated, it steals information from the computer and uploads it to the attacker’s command and control (C&C) server.
Here below, we have mentioned all data that are being targeted by the attackers from the victim’s system:
Passwords
Cookies
Extension data
Auto-fills
Credit card details
Debit card details
Crypto wallet data
Crypto wallet credentials
Telegram data
Telegram credentials
.txt files
Excel sheets
PowerPoint presentations
IP address
Malware path (Redline and Vidar only)
Timezone
Location
System specifications
Distributing malware via Youtube
Youtube is a popular platform for attackers to reach millions of users easily. It is still difficult for threat actors to maintain long-term active accounts on the platform due to the platform’s regulations and the review process.
It is common for the video to be removed and the account to be banned as soon as there appear to be a few users affected by the video.
In order to circumvent the platform’s algorithm and review process, threat actors are always looking for new ways to get around the algorithm.
Taking Over Popular & Less Popular Accounts
As a means of reaching a large audience in a short period of time, threat actors target popular accounts that have 100K or more subscribers.
In such a case, YouTubers should inform Youtube of the account thief, and they should be able to access their accounts within a few hours after they report them. But there is a possibility that hundreds of users could have fallen victim to this scam within a few hours.
In contrast, the average user, who does not upload videos on a regular basis on YouTube, may not even realize that their account has been taken over for a significant time as they do not upload videos regularly.
Threat actors target these accounts despite the fact that their reach is limited, as videos uploaded to them remain available for extended periods of time.
Automated & Frequent Video Uploads
Security researchers have thoroughly investigated the frequency of uploading videos containing malicious links for crack software to Youtube. They have found that 5-10 such videos are posted every hour.
Regularly adding videos to the site helps to make up for the videos that are deleted or taken down. In addition, they ensure that the malicious videos will be accessible at any given time if a user searches for a tutorial on how to download cracked software.
Using Region-Specific Tags, Obfuscated Links, Fake Comments, and AI-Generated Videos
In order to deceive the YouTube algorithm, threat actors add a wealth of tags to the video that will make sure it appears as a top result and will deceive the YouTube algorithm into recommending the video to the user.
As a way of making their video look like a legitimate one, the threat actors also use fake comments and Region-Specific Tags.
Video featuring humans, especially those with certain facial features, undeniably gives viewers a sense of familiarity and trustworthiness. That’s why the threat actors use AI-Generated videos as well as obfuscated links.
Recommendations
As a result of the vast increase in threats to organizations, it is imperative to keep them protected. There has been a consensus among security experts that organizations need to adopt the following things:-
Robust threat monitoring practice to be more secure.
Make sure to closely monitor the changing Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures used by the threat actors.
Awareness campaigns must be conducted.
Ensure that users are equipped with the knowledge to identify potential threats in advance.
Make sure to use complex passwords and not use any user passwords.
