This week has been crazy in the world of hacking and online security. From Thailand to London to the US, we’ve seen arrests, spies at work, and big power moves online. Hackers are getting caught. Spies are getting better at their jobs. Even simple things like browser add-ons and smart home gadgets are being used to attack people.

Every day, there’s a new story that shows how quickly things are changing in the fight over the internet.

Governments are cracking down harder on cybercriminals. Big tech companies are rushing to fix their security. Researchers keep finding weak spots in apps and devices we use every day.

I’ll keep sharing simple updates and closer looks at the big stories about cyber threats, privacy, and staying safe online.
