New Emojis Coming and Reset Your Router!

I'm sure you've heard the warnings by now but the FBI is recommending you restart your home routers because of a malware called VPNFilter. The average home router doesn't have much malware protection so you should probably take the necessary steps to reset your router and everything connected to it!

Alexa Is Listening, Recording, and Sending!

Check out this story where a couple in Oregon was having a private conversation and Alexa recorded and sent the conversation to one of their contacts!  They were not aware until the contact contacted them about what had happened.  The couple contacted Amazon and they verified the series of events.  But what's even more bizarre is the couple wanted to return their Amazon home devices but Amazon has not agreed to return the costs for the devices!

Cybersecurity

So what happened?  Twitter has started cleaning accounts due to fake news scandals and data privacy.  That equates to about 1 million accounts the past quarter (2nd Q of 2018).  Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey says improving the health of the platform is critical for future growth.
