Do this to see if you got hacked
I wish that I could wave my magic wand and automatically reinstate all the accounts for anyone who asks me for help because their Facebook account got hacked, their ex knows everywhere they go or they’ve lost access to everything and even money for some reason.

👩⚖️ Hailey Bieber v. haters: You just won’t talk to someone who trolls you on social media. If you’re a Bieber, no way. A viral TikTok video and a YouTube series are calling Hailey Bieber a bully for supposedly liking a mean post about Selena Gomez’s fiancé, Benny Blanco. Now, she’s lawyering up with Lisa Moore, who helped Cardi B win a $4 million defamation case.
Copilot is back: A recent Windows 11 update removed the app from some devices. Microsoft rolled out an emergency update that should reinstall it on your system. Haven’t seen it yet? You can manually install it from the Microsoft Store.
“What’d you say?” If you find yourself asking this more and more, make a change. Today’s tech is so much better than the hearing aids other generations wore. These hearing aids have two tiny processors that analyze the sound around you to make conversations crystal clear. Incredible.
A sound idea: New tech beams sound to a specific spot without speakers or headphones. How? It sends two ultrasonic waves that bend around obstacles, creating a sound bubble only the right person can hear. Imagine walking up to a museum exhibit and getting the narration without wearing headphones or bothering anyone else. Love that!
One of the worst phishing scams: It’s coming for Mac owners, with hackers trying to steal your Apple ID. While you’re browsing in Safari, a fake pop-up appears pretending to be a security alert. What makes it extra sneaky? The page you’re on actually freezes, making it feel like your computer’s locked up. If it happens, don’t click anything. Just restart your browser.
📍 Bait and switch: Google found over 10,000 fake listings on Google Maps and is now suing the scammers behind it. People would search for a service (often an emergency one) and get directed to a phony business. Then the scam service would show up and demand way more money than originally quoted. That’s why you need to verify details, folks.
