Coinhive to Discontinue Their Next Week Crypto-Mining ServiceByBill Toulas-February 28, 2019.832 Coinhive announces plans to cease mining in March and hand over all operations by the end of April. Cryptojacking campaigns will take a blow as they will need to change their platform for exploitation. Coinhive is about to shut down its services on their official website according to a blog post. The date the cryptocurrency mining service administrators will pull the plug has been described as March 8, 2019 so Monero miners only have one week left to enjoy the service. User dashboards will be available, and payout activities can continue until 30 April 2019. The main reason for this abrupt ending was given as follows: “Many of you may have expected this will shock some of you. The decision was made. Our service will be discontinued on March 8th 2019. Over the past 18 months, it has been a blast of work on this project but to be completely honest, it is no longer economically viable. “More specifically, Coinhive admins claim that the latest Monero hard fork and the 85 percent depreciation of Xmr cryptocoin within one year have rendered the operations unprofitable. While the announcement is characterized by a had fun while it lasted tone by the Coinhive admins those who have fallen victims of cryptojacking campaigns will probably be relieved by this news. Coinhive offered the technical capacity to add small-scale JavaScript coin miners on Web pages, and it was loved by cryptojacking actors.

Trump Pressure on Apple to unlock iPhones from Terrorist
ByBill Toulas-January 15, 2020.836 The U.S. President does not accept that Apple is unable to unlock old iPhones and asks for backdoor access. Apple says they shared everything they had and is once again illustrating the risks of a backdoor. Last week the Fbi asked Apple to unlock two devices (iPhone 5 and 7 Plus) that belonged to Mohammed Alshamrani, the person responsible for the Pensacola shooting that cost three people’s lives and wounded another eight in December 2019. Apple replied by handing over any data they had in their possession to the request but the shared information did not make the investigators very happy. Apple was unable to provide anything other than iCloud data as everything stored locally on the devices remains beyond anyone’s control other than the user himself or Apple. Attorney General William Barr seems unable to accept that Apple is unable to unlock the two iPhones or that the company is unable to decrypt the local data and said the company has not given them substantial assistance. Apple refutes these allegations and says it responded to all Fbi queries within a few hours. Regardless of what search warrants and what subpoenas are issued, Apple is unable to break iOs security and maintains that there is no “good backdoor guys” in their framework. Thus the country’s law enforcement is asking them to reform this custom to protect the lives of citizens. Us President Donald Trump joined innor should he pay any respects to the right of the people to privacy. Asking to plant a backdoor on iOs would have dire consequences for the privacy of millions of people and would kill Apple’s marketing and the unique benefits advertised for customers. At the Brooklyn Academy of Music Howard Gilman Opera House in New York, Apple holds a press event on Oct. 30. All invitations sent to the media houses are designed differently and in a unique way. Rumors suggest we could see new models for iPads and Macs. Apple has just announced they will hold a press event this October 30th. It will be performed at the New York Academy of Music Howard Gilman Opera House in Brooklyn. The tech giant has even started issuing invites for the event to media houses. Current speculations say that the new models for iPad and Mac will make their grand debut-but nothing is made official. And while we are left with rumors mostly, some of them come from trusted sources. Now it is worth noting that in March, Apple had just updated its iPad line-up. Along with some other features they added support for the Apple Pencil Stylus. These devices were introduced in a 10.5-inch model and a 12.9-inch model. So it looks like the new 11-inch iPad model could replace the 10.5-inch model if it does surface. Besides this, we also have low running news from the BloombergiMac screen. In addition the iMac mini could also be in the queue for a “serious” remake. With all these in mind, however, we are still curious if any new product could or could not come to the surface? Does the business have any new HomePods AirPods or AirPower vaporware to our delight, for example? Only time seems to tell. One last thing worth mentioning is how Apple sent invitations to each media house in different, unique styles. Furthermore each invitation says there’s more in the making. All these might be forecasting that the new devices will boast features and tools aimed at creative workloads. Grip. MoviePass Tries to Revive its Business by Launching New Subscription Plans
ByBill Toulas-December 6 2018 .838 Figure 1 Image from moviepass.com MoviePass launches three new subscription plans MoviePass going through extensive restructure and business plan realignment MoviePassthree new subscription plans to their customers by January. Select All Access and Red Carpet starting at $9.95 $14.95 and $19.95 respectively will all offer their subscribers three showings per month. The disparity between the three rates will be largely due to the limitations caused for the consumer. For example, the “Select” plan only allows a limited pool of options to pick movies and view times. The “All Access” plan removes those constraints so that you can pick every movie showtime. In addition to what comes with the “All Access” package, the “Red Carpet” includes a premium screening (Imax or RealD 3D). Now all those rates are nowhere near what MoviePass delivered last summer when customers charged $10/month for 30 movies a month (1 a day). However the theatrical subscription service has gone through rough times and wasn’t able to establish themselves financially in the market so the troubles affected their operations subscribers started rightfully complaining about a poor level of service experiencing outages and many finding themselves blocked out from movies they wanted to watch. All that said these new plans are the best that can be offered in an effort of MoviePass to stand on its feet financially. The company acknowledges the fact that the previous financial planning decisionsNytimes interview: I don’t believe that today people trust the MoviePass brand. We got to earn that confidence back. And we’re not going to earn it back by spending on ads but by improving the product. “page for more such news. StockX Breach Data Details Posted on ‘ Have I Been Pwned ‘
