Give me the highlights: Don’t let a YouTube video hold you hostage, only for you to find out it wasn’t worth your time. I like Perplexity AI for this task. All you need to do is copy the video URL, paste the link into Gemini, and use the prompt “Summarize this video” to have it skim the details for you.

Stories like this make my blood boil. Some creep was caught taking pics up a woman’s skirt at a Target store. Let’s give a big cheer to the woman who called him out and filmed it.
I’m giving away a $799 iPhone 15. Try my free daily newsletter for your shot to win. My newsletter has over 209,000 positive reviews with a 4.88 out of 5 star rating!
LinkedIn is the world’s largest professional network, with nearly a billion members worldwide. While this offers job seekers and recruiters many opportunities, it also makes the site a prime target for cybercriminals.
Apple win: The FDA just named the Apple Watch an official “medical device development tool” for its atrial fibrillation tracker. This means Apple Watches will soon collect data in clinical studies. It’s the first digital health device to achieve that status. Super cool.
The company says it wants to fight “tipping fatigue” by “tipping you back.” Pretty good, albeit a little cheesy. You have till mid-September to take advantage of this offer.
VPN trouble: Microsoft’s April security update is causing some VPN connections to fail on Windows 11 (versions 23H2, 22H2 and 21H2) and Windows 10 (versions 22H2 and 21H2). No patch date announced yet, so beware: Your IP address and location could be exposed. I’ll let you know when they fix this.
Cybercriminals and spies targeting routers: Hackers’ new side hustle is charging Chinese and Russian spies and scammers for access to old routers so they can launch denial-of-service (DoS) attacks or send scammy spam emails. If your device is more than three years old, it’s time to upgrade.
Small-biz boost: Amazon is giving over $250,000 in grants to small businesses that earn less than $1 million per year. Plus, it’s rolling out a new Small Business Success Studio — think free tutorials on loan applications and website optimization. Applications close May 24.

I’m too techy for the catwalk: Models are ditching IRL runways for “AI fashion.” Upload some old photos to the platform and get paid for your likeness in AI-generated fashion campaigns. Hmm. Should I upload some pics from the ‘90s?
Disturbing trend: Teenagers are using AI “nudification” apps to create deepfaked nudes of their classmates, no consent needed. Just upload a photo of someone’s face, and boom — a naked pic appears. You can get prison time for this kind of stuff. Parents, talk to your kids.
I’d hang up: New to the Google Phone app: Audio emojis. During a call, you can select from six sound effects, including clapping, laughing and farting, which play for you and the other person. On the bright side, there’s a cooldown period, so no endless loop of fart sounds.
