A 56-year-old man from Hong Kong has contracted the rat-specific version of hepatitis E, something never observed before in a human patient. Health officials are now scrambling to understand how this could have happened—and the possible implications.

MoviePass has angered former customers by notifying them of a new plan that involves resuming charges and forcing them to opt-out of being a renewed customer. Only “a select test group” is being forced back onto their plan without request, though an email indicates that MoviePass may expand this to cover more people in the future. Those who fail to … Continue reading
Earlier this year Fox announced that Marvel’s Dark Phoenix movie would be delayed where instead of a release in 2018, it had been pushed to February 2019. The other day a trailer for the movie was released which seemed like everything was on track, or so we thought, but unfortunately that is no longer the case.
In a report from Deadline, it appears that Fox has decided to delay the Dark Phoenix movie again. Instead of being released in February, Fox has reportedly pushed the release to the 7th of June, 2019, making it a summer blockbuster release. Why the delay, you ask? Apparently because a summer release is a “better date”, plus it also gives the film a better chance at doing well in China.
It seems that the trailer for the movie managed to clock 44 million views over in China in the first 24 hours, indicating that the Chinese market is pretty excited for its release. It is unfortunate that the movie has been delayed again, and safe to say that the delays are building up a lot of hype which hopefully the movie will be able to deliver.
Dark Phoenix is expected to be the last Marvel movie by Fox following Disney’s acquisition of them, which will also see the return of several Marvel franchises back to Marvel. It was also previously reported that Marvel will be folding the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and Deadpool in the MCU, which presumably could come in the form of a reboot of the franchises.

Artist Ana Juan said she was inspired by Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony: “She speaks for the women who have no voice”
Senators don’t want to call Christine Blasey Ford a liar. So they’re attacking her story another way instead.
We’re at a critical inflection point for the World Wide Web. Everything is changing, disappearing, splintering, expanding, and being remade. It’s time we provide legal protection to what’s left of this moment in history. And one way to do that is to make it a national monument.

Facebook is the biggest social network in the world at the moment, and with millions of accounts on its platform, it does seem like a hacker’s dream come true to be able to mine all of these accounts for all kinds of personal information that could be used for other malicious purposes. Unfortunately for some, that’s exactly what happened.
In an announcement by Facebook, the company has revealed that on the 25th of September, their systems were compromised by hackers who exploited a security flaw, which in turn saw about 50 million or so accounts compromised. According to Facebook, the flaw was in the “View As” feature that lets users see what their profile might look like to another user.
Facebook says that the flaw “allowed them to steal Facebook access tokens which they could then use to take over people’s accounts. Access tokens are the equivalent of digital keys that keep people logged in to Facebook so they don’t need to re-enter their password every time they use the app.”
Users who have been affected by this will see themselves logged out of their Facebook accounts and also services that they might have logged in with using Facebook. Upon logging back in, they will be greeted by the notification in the screenshot above that lets them know what happened.
Facebook concludes, “To protect people’s accounts, we’ve fixed the vulnerability. We have also reset the access tokens of the almost 50 million accounts we know were affected and we’ve also taken the precautionary step of resetting access tokens for another 40 million accounts that have been subject to a View As look-up in the last year. Finally, we’ve temporarily turned off the View As feature while we conduct a thorough security review.”
