The dark web isn't just for illicit activities. In fact, many legitimate online platforms maintain a ".onion" domain on the dark web for privacy reasons, including media outlets like ProPublica and BBC News, social media sites like Facebook, and privacy-conscious communication platforms like Proton Mail and SecureDrop.  But this also provides perfect cover for criminals and hackers who create clones of legitimate dark web sites to steal sensitive data and cryptocurrency from privacy-conscious users. And given that onion links are long and jumbled , it’s easy for users to accidentally click on the wrong link and end up on a fake website instead of the real one. When the FBI seized 276 onion addresses during 2014's Operation Onymous, they found that 153 of them were phishing sites. Thankfully, Tor Browser already has a cryptography-backed feature that can verify the authenticity of an onion site, by confirming whether it has end-to-end encryption and extended valida...

In April of 2023, the FBI took down an invite-only dark web marketplace called Genesis Market. The seizure was part of “Operation Cookie Monster,” a DOJ collaboration with law enforcement agencies across 17 countries. They discovered 80 million stolen credentials from approximately 1.5 million devices, including session cookies that let scammers log into a user’s account without even entering a password.  Genesis Market may be gone, but bundles of leaked session cookies called “stealer logs” are still harvested and sold in other dark web spaces. In fact, NordVPN researchers counted more than 52.4 billion stolen cookies in infostealer data between June 2025 and 2026. That said, the good news is that stolen session cookies stop working as soon as you revoke active sessions from your account settings. As such, it's important to find out if your session cookies ended up on the dark web, remediate your account if necessary, and avoid such leaks...

Apple announced a slew of products in March, including the MacBook Air with the M5 chip, which ended up increasing in price in June due to the RAM shortage . These MacBooks come in both 13-inch and 15-inch sizes, and if you're interested in either, it's a good time to buy: In the leadup to Black Friday, Amazon is selling both at a $200 discount, and the 1 TB storage versions for $250 off. Those discounts bring the 13-inch MacBook Air to $1,099.99 (down from $1,299) and $1,349.99 (originally $1,499.99) for the 512GB and 1 TB versions , respectively. The 15-inch MacBook Air is down to $1,299 (originally $1,499), and the 1TB version is $1,549.99 (originally $1,799.99). All versions are at their lowest prices since the June price hikes, according to tracking tools . ...

Even Apple's smallest iPhone isn't that small, with a 6.1-inch display. (Compare that to the 5.4-inch iPhone mini it used to sell.) But just because a lot of us like it that way doesn't mean all of us do. Despite what companies like Apple would lead you to believe, there are plenty of people out there who want their smartphones to be smaller. For some, the iPhone mini was perfect, featuring a design that most could use comfortably with one hand. While the sales might not have been steady enough for Apple to continue producing the mini line, anecdotally, I know quite a few people who would happily keep using iPhones this small, if only Apple would make more of them. Perhaps you know people like this too; maybe you're one of them. While the rumor mill does not suggest that Apple plans to make a ...
