The cyber attacks on Israel continue

Several government sites have collapsed one after another in a widespread cyber attack.

The sites returned to normal operation after about two hours.

The National Cyber ​​Authority and the National Cyber ​​System said: "In the last few hours, a denial of service attack on a communications provider has been identified, as a result of which access to a number of sites, including government sites, has been denied for a short time.

80 million users are disconnected

After officially announcing this over the weekend - Russia yesterday blocked access to Instagram to 80 million users in its territory.

As you may recall, the regulator responsible for media oversight and censorship has restricted access to Instagram in response to a meta-decision to allow calls for violence against Putin and the Russian military.

At the same time, Russia's attorney general's office said over the weekend that it would henceforth define Meta as "an extremist organization and that the company's activities would be banned in the country."

And now try to imagine your life without social networks.

For the environment?

This is how Apple makes billions at our expense

Apple very much wants us to believe that the reason it took out the charger and headphones is in a commitment to preserving the environment, and not because it lowers the cost of manufacturing the devices.

But not everyone believes in the technology giant and claims that the main reason is actually a desire to maximize profits.

According to a Daily Mail publication, Apple has so far saved about £ 5 billion (about $ 6.5 billion) thanks to the removal of the charger and headphones from the packaging.

However, as is well known, the prices of the iPhones remained the same - while the chargers were sold separately at a cost of $ 19.

Russia's next threat - in space

Fighting between Russia and the West reaches space: Dmitry Rogozin, head of the Russian space agency, warned over the weekend that economic sanctions imposed on Russia could damage Russian space vehicles used for the ongoing maintenance of the International Space Station

- he said, as a result Around the Earth, may be affected, causing a 500-ton structure to "fall into the sea or land."

And pay attention to this detail that Rogazin bothered to emphasize - a possible fall of the space station will not actually be in the territory of Russia.
