How to spot ‘cheapfakes’ online, according to 2 misinformation experts

Someone tracking the conflict raging in the Middle East could have seen the following two videos on social media. The first shows a little boy hovering over his father’s dead body, whimpering in Arabic, “Don’t leave me.” The second purports to show a pregnant woman with her abdomen slashed open and claims to document the testimony of a paramedic who handled victims’ bodies after Hamas’s attack in Israel on October 7, 2023.

Even though these videos come from different sides of the I

This exceptional free speed tool will tell you if your ISP is lying

Are you getting the internet speed you’re paying for?

It’s an important question. After all, your internet service provider offered you a plan with a high-sounding download speed number, and you’re probably paying more money every single month to get that instead of the cheaper, slower option.

But are you actually getting the speed you were promised? There’s only one way to find out.

Is the new dating app Cheers the future of dating?

A new dating app called Cheers is designed to allow your friends to set you up on dates with their friends.

Launched last month as a New York City-focused, invite-only platform and focused for now on South Asian people, Cheers is in some ways not unlike other dating apps: It asks users to say where they went to school, if they drink, and so on.

What makes Cheers unique is that you can add your contacts to your profile section. This is where it starts to take the shape of

Amazon’s health business is coming into focus

In November 2021, Neil Lindsay was named to head Amazon’s health business. It wasn’t because of his medical expertise. He didn’t have any. “The reason I’m in this job is because I know how to build things in Amazon,” says Lindsay, who had spent 11 years at the company in marketing roles relating to Prime, devices, and other areas at the time of his appointment.

At Amazon, maybe even more than other tech giants, proven success at understanding the cor

How AI helped Apple sell $46 billion worth of iPhones

Sales of the iPhone totaled $46.22 billion for the July-September period, a 6% increase from the same time last year, according to Apple’s fiscal fourth-quarter report released Thursday. That improvement reversed two consecutive year-over-year declines in the iPhone&#

Marketers in a dying internet: Why the only option is a return to simplicity

There’s a famous saying: “On the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog.” The quote—taken from a New Yorker cartoon published in, if you can believe it, 1993—made a simple point about the anonymity provided by the internet: Shielded by a monitor, you could be anyone.

I had assumed this quote would remain eternally relevant. Not so. In 2024, a person might

She zooms in to show her selection of Honey Chipotle Chicken Crispers, Big Mouth Bites, and Nashville Hot Mozz, accompanied with three sides of ranch. Taking a bite of the mozzarella stick, she says “now that’s what I call a cheese pull,” stretching the stick until it is almost out of shot. “For $16, worth it.”

This Google Maps update is refreshingly not all about AI

If Google is in the middle of reinventing itself around AI, you wouldn’t know it from the latest Google Maps updates.

Yes, there are the obligatory new Gemini AI integrations in the form of review summaries and more granular search queries, and those are what dominate Google’s press release about the news. But for the most part, the update is about meat-and-potatoes improvements to the core mapping and navigation experience, most of which don’t involve generative AI.

How to use Instagram to date when your coworkers are following you

There are certain social media rules we can all agree on: Ghosting a conversation is impolite, and replying “k” to a text is the equivalent of a backhand slap (violent, wrong, and rude).

‘It just feels a bit much’: Boo baskets are the latest Halloween TikTok trend to spark backlash among parents

You’ve picked the perfect pumpkin, nailed your costume, and decked out your porch, but have you put together your “boo basket” yet?

This viral trend—Halloween’s version of Secret Santa—has taken social media by storm over the last few years. At its core, it involves a basket or bucket filled with treats left anonymously on a neighbor’s doorstep, accompanied by a note saying, “You’ve been BOOed!” The recipient then is required to pay it forward by “booing” someone else.

JPMorgan Chase is suing customers over the viral check fraud scam

JPMorgan Chase has begun to file lawsuits against people that exploited the viral “infinite money glitch”—or committed check fraud—this summer. 

In August, posts began circulating on social media showing users how to exploit “the glitch” by depositing into the bank’s ATMs bogus checks for large amounts, and withdrawing some of those available funds before the check bounced. The now-closed loophole quickly went viral, with social media users cashing in on the trend and
