‼️ A Chrome extension called Volume Booster, with roughly 2 million weekly users, activated a commerce-tracking SDK across its entire base without ever prompting for consent.
The trick: a broad all-sites permission was granted in an earlier version and left unused, then a later update switched on the Give Freely affiliate SDK without requesting any new permission, so Chrome shipped it silently.
The SDK registers a persistent device ID, geolocates users by IP, and sends telemetry continuously, while the store's privacy declaration still claims no data collection beyond core functionality.
A broad permission granted early and activated later via a prompt-free update is a detectable supply-chain signal.

‼️🚨 BREAKING: CONFIDENTIAL DOCUMENTS OF APPLE AND TESLA HAVE BEEN LEAKED.
Tata Electronics, which builds about a third of Apple's iPhones in India, has confirmed a cyberattack after the extortion group World Leaks posted what it claims are confidential Apple and Tesla files — more than 204,000 documents totalling 630+ GB.
We reviewed the leak. The files carry Apple's confidential and proprietary footers and Tesla trade-secret markings, and include iPhone circuit board inspection specs, factory data, and employee passport scans. There are tons of e-mails as well, plus files belonging to other Tata Electronics customers.
Tata says operations are unaffected and has received a ransom demand.
