The video game industry is lobbying against Stop Killing Games
California is considering a new law called AB 1921, also known as the Protect Our Games Act.
If passed, the bill would apply to paid digital games sold after January 1, 2027.
It requires that if a company shuts down the online services needed to play the game normally, it must give players 60 days' notice and either release a patch so the game can still be played or offer buyers a full refund.
The bill does not require companies to keep servers running forever. It simply prevents them from making a game unplayable without warning or a solution for those who already paid for it.
The Entertainment Software Association, the main group representing video game companies in the United States, is lobbying against the bill.
Their arguments are basically the usual ones:
>games are licensed, not owned
>online services are complicated
>third-party licenses expire
>security risks exist
>this could be hard or expensive to enforce
Supporters of the bill, including the Stop Killing Games campaign, say this is basic customer protection because when you buy a game, it should not suddenly stop working with no remedy.
The bill gives companies clear options and applies only to future games. A hearing is scheduled for this Thursday in the California Assembly Appropriations Committee.
If you are part of an organization in the United States, especially in California, you can submit a letter of support to the committee. This is an important step for better rights for players who buy digital games.
Google Chrome is quietly downloading a roughly 4 GB AI model to many users’ computers without clear upfront consent.
The file, called weights.bin, is part of Google’s Gemini Nano on-device language model and lands in the browser’s user data folder under OptGuideOnDeviceModel.
It powers built-in AI tools such as “Help me write,” smarter tab suggestions, on-device scam detection, and page summarization. The download triggers automatically for devices meeting minimum hardware requirements, and Chrome often replaces the files if deleted.
While the model processes data locally, installation happens in the background with minimal notification.
The scale is noteworthy. Hundreds of millions or billions of installations add up to thousands of tonnes of carbon emissions globally from data transfer, even though each is a one-time event.
To prevent or remove it, go to chrome://flags, disable the entries for the optimization guide on-device model and Prompt API, restart the browser, and manually delete the folder.
Google Chrome silently installs a 4 GB AI model on your device.
> No consent dialog. No opt-out UI. Re-installs itself if the user removes it manually.
That is the true definition of malware.

A Spanish judge has ordered Cloudflare to block access from its CDN network to several websites that offer pirated football streams.
It is the same court handling a complaint filed by LaLiga and Telefónica against Cloudflare and its CEO, Matthew Prince.
The two companies accuse Prince of crimes against:
-intellectual property
-obstruction of justice
-threats
-coercion
Cloudflare CEO always publicly criticized IP blocking measures in Spain and warned that such blocks could risk lives if they ever hit critical services.
Prince was due to appear in court on April 7 but did not travel to Spain.
The judge has now sent a formal request to U.S. authorities about the case but no one knows if Cloudflare will comply.
The company uses a security feature called Encrypted Client Hello (ECH), and hides domain names during connections, making it impossible for Spanish internet providers to block just the illegal sites without also affecting thousands of legitimate websites that share the same infrastructure.
Only Cloudflare can carry out a clean block at the domain level.
Your smart TV is taking screenshots of your screen every 15 seconds.
Not a guess. Not a theory.
A peer-reviewed study by researchers at UC Davis, UCL, and UC3M tested it.
Samsung TVs: every minute.
LG TVs: every 15 seconds.
Even when you're just using it as a monitor.
Here's how to turn it off for every brand:
