Aadhaar cards may soon get a MAJOR redesign in India
UIDAI is reportedly planning a new Aadhaar format that will show only:
• Photo
• Secure QR Code
No visible personal details like address, DOB, or Aadhaar number on the front.
This means:
🔐 Better privacy protection
📱 Instant verification via QR scan
🛡️ Reduced misuse & data exposure
If implemented, this could be the biggest privacy-focused upgrade to Aadhaar since launch.

Sony has patented a new asset streaming system that aims to reduce the size of PS5 and PS6 games to combat rising SSD prices, potentially shrinking initial downloads from 100GB+ to around 100MB.
High-detail assets would stream from Sony servers on demand while core game logic runs locally on the console, lowering SSD storage needs.
It remains only a patent and is not confirmed for release.

WhatsApp for Android is testing a major UI change 👀
In the latest beta version 2.26.6.9, the Status section is being moved directly to the top of the Chats home screen — right under the search bar (Ask Meta AI or Search), instead of staying inside the Updates tab.
From the screenshot:
This is a major UX change in WhatsApp’s navigation strategy and could reduce reliance on the Updates tab entirely, If this rolls out, the Updates tab may become more Channel-focused..
Spotted in recent beta builds. Rollout expected gradually.
