Hacker posts new thread on a dark web forum, claiming to have stolen millions of records from T-MobileThe records included names, email addresses, phone numbers, and other PIIHowever T-Mobile says the archive has nothing to do with the company or its customersHackers have recently shared a new database they claim contains sensitive customer information stolen from the American telecommunications giant, T-Mobile. However, the company denied any connection to the archive, saying it had nothing to do with it, or its clients.A Cybernews report claims the unnamed cybercriminals leaked a database containing fresh intel (obtained as early as June 1, 2025).The database contained 64 million lines, holding valuable customer information such as full names, dates of birth, tax IDs, postal addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, device IDs, cookie IDs, and IP addresses.Reader offer: Get 60% off RoboForm password managerNew users can take advantage of RoboForm’s exclusive deal and get 60% off the Premium Plan.

These attacks can result in identity theft, wire fraud, and ransomware attacks.Responding to a Cybernews inquiry, T-Mobile said the data had nothing to do with it: “Any reports of a T-Mobile data breach are inaccurate. We have reviewed the sample data provided and can confirm the data does not relate to T-Mobile or our customers," the company's representative told the publication.The Cybernews team analyzed the data, but could not confirm its authenticity. It said that some data, such as phone numbers, appeared in earlier T-Mobile links, but said it was impossible to verify the archive with 100% accuracy. We also don’t know if 64 million lines means 64 million people.“If this data is legitimate, exposing 64M lines of highly sensitive information poses a serious threat of identity theft/fraud, surveillance, and further, better-targeted attacks on customers,” the team said.This is not the first time T-Mobile denied having been breached. Roughly a year ago, an infamous threat actor known as IntelBroker claimed to have broken into T-Mobile and stolen Source code, SQL files, Images, Terraform data, t-mobile.com certifications, and Siloprograms.

Roku has new home page layout to make key sections faster to findVery much a work in progress and likely to change againYou can opt out if you're offered the updateIf your Roku TV home screen appears to have been redesigned overnight, don't worry: it just means you're one of the chosen few who get to see what might be the next evolution of the Roku TV interface.As The Verge reports, Roku is testing a rejigged version of the home page with a small number of Roku users in order to assess whether or not they like it. The firm is "trying some different approaches" to the functionality of the home page, Roku's Preston Smalley explained. "We’re definitely trying to see how much control people want, but that's something we want to hear from customers on."Moving things into the main grid means a simpler sidebar (Image credit: Roku)What's changing in the Roku TV home screenAlthough this is only a test, it does indicate the most likely changes coming to your home page in the not too distant future. The first thing you'll notice is that the home button on your remote takes you straight into the main grid rather than to the sidebar, which is where it takes you in the current version.Live TV and Featured Free have been moved from the sidebar into the main grid to make them more obvious; Roku says that these "compelling and delightful destinations" weren't being used by many people, and they expect more prominent placement to mean more people being compelled and delighted.The Quick Access section is designed to make it easier to see your favorite apps, but for now it's automated: The Verge says that you can't manually remove apps or add different ones.Underneath Quick Access there's "The Best Across Your Streaming Services" which is the new home for the Live TV and Featured Free options as well as Subscriptions and For You, which as you'd expect is where you'll find personalized recommendations.This is very much a work in progress so if you've got it on your Roku TV it may change again during the testing phase – and if you're one of the chosen few it's not compulsory, so you can opt out of the test if you'd rather wait for the final, finished version.You might also likeOur Roku Ultra (2024) review: a souped-up streamer with a fantastic remoteRoku Streaming Stick review: the cheapest Roku streamer if you don’t need 4K Roku Streaming Stick Plus review: a budget 4K streamer that hides behind your TV

Two years after the Resident Evil 4 remake, Capcom has finally revealed the ninth mainline installment in its beloved franchise, Resident Evil Requiem, which looks set to take the series back to where it all started.There’s only so much we can dissect from the three-minute reveal trailer Capcom released at Summer Game Fest, especially since most of the tease consists of rapidly flashing images.However, the return to a rundown Raccoon City suggests one thing; there is no way our favorite RPD rookie, Leon S. Kennedy, won't be involved in some capacity, whether that's as a playable character, or one who serves an Ethan Winters to Chris Redfield-style role as a secondary protagonist, or perhaps even the main protagonist.There's a lot to dive into, with very plausible rumors and supposed leaks that corroborate my predictions, but if we're talking about a return to Raccoon City, Leon is the first character that comes to mind. It makes little sense – and would be a huge missed opportunity – if this weren't the case; if you've played Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 4, you'll be aware of the close connection Leon has with the nuked, once zombie-infested city, even if it's a traumatic memory.I'll be very shocked if I and those sharing rumors are wrong, because from my perspective, it seems pretty concrete that it'll happen.Recent leaks and rumors have aligned with the reveal trailerI'm banking on either one of these two being our RPD hero... (Image credit: Capcom)While it's always a good idea to take rumors and leaks with a grain of salt, the ones coming from Dusk Golem on X (who's had a pretty good track record with RE leaks previously) look bang on the money.The claims here are that Leon S. Kennedy is the main protagonist of Resident Evil Requiem, even more so than Grace Ashcroft (the daughter of Resident Evil Outbreak's Alyssa Ashcroft), who features through most of the reveal trailer. Dusk Golem suggests that we’ll see Leon as marketing continues to ramp up until the game's launch – and while I've previously thought claims from Golem were wide of the mark, that's now changed.Before its reveal at the very end of Summer Game Fest, Golem teased the game's title name and the 'suggestion' that it may be the closing reveal after Capcom's prank, which hinted at a reveal on a later date.If that's not enough, a slightly older tweet addressed users' suspicions that a second legacy Resident Evil character would appear alongside Leon – while I still personally think that will be the case, with either Ada or Jill joining the fray, Golem gave yet another hint that we would be seeing a new character, saying: "I mean, why not start a horror story with a fresh face?" instantly suggesting that there's some legitimacy here.A lot of people think Leon not being the only playable character in RE9 means someone familiar, but I never said that. I mean, why not start a horror story with a fresh face?June 3, 2025I'm actually very amused by the Resident Evil 9 teasing, but hey. I think its very likely the show closer, be a pretty fun requiem to the whole thing.June 6, 2025Leon will play the biggest role in Re9uiem. https://t.co/ZZmcjjUhtLJune 7, 2025Again, I'm not saying this is an absolute certainty (as I've said, I'm almost certain), but if I were a betting man, I'd put my money on there being something to these rumors. Since our new protagonist, Grace Ashcroft, is an FBI analyst, it would be hard for me to see her going in solo to what is supposedly Raccoon City in its aftermath of an experimental thermobaric missile, and meeting deadly threats that appear to be ones we've never seen before in the franchise.You could say a character like Ethan Winters was capable of holding his own as he navigates the nightmarish Baker house, although both RE7 and Village ended with Chris stepping in to take care of matters. I expect to see the same trend here with Requiem, especially since we're going back to RE7's director, Koshi Nakanishi.It won't be the end of the world if Leon or the original characters aren't involved (although it would be strange), but I can almost guarantee that if they are, the hype and anticipation from fans will be monumental.You might also like...Resident Evil 9 has been revealed, plus everything else announced at Summer Game Fest 2025 and my live reactions as it happenedAtomic Heart 2 officially announced at Summer Game Fest, along with an Atomic Heart multiplayer spin-off, The CubeResident Evil 3 review

A PC-to-PC migration feature has been found in a new Windows 10 previewIt’s not enabled in testing, though, and is hidden in the backgroundHowever, Windows Insiders have got it working in a fashion, and we could see it arrive before longMicrosoft is readying a PC-to-PC migration feature for Windows 10 that was previously spotted in testing (with Windows 11, which it should also debut with), and it could be with us soon.Of course, bringing in such a capability fully makes sense because Windows 10 reaches the end of the line for support in October 2025, so Microsoft wants to make it as easy as possible for those on the older OS to switch to a new PC running Windows 11 (assuming they can’t upgrade their current computer to the latter).This functionality is part of the existing Backup app in Windows 10, and it’s called ‘Transfer information to a new PC’ – though I should note it’s not fully in testing yet, and that may well be a placeholder name.Leaker PhantomOfEarth discovered the feature in the latest Windows 10 build in the Release Preview channel (version 19045.6029).Unsurprisingly, Windows Migration is coming to Windows 10 to make it easier to move to 11 as we get closer to EoL.The migration flow in the Backup app is hidden in today's RP CU (19045.6029), can be enabled with feature ID 56242779. pic.twitter.com/23q3F1kl0mJune 12, 2025Windows Latest noticed the above post on X, and enabled the migration feature itself, observing that it doesn’t work yet – which is hardly surprising, as it’s not officially live even in testing right now.However, PhantomOfEarth showed us a couple of screenshots of the interface on X as you can see above, and Windows Latest has been playing around with what is in place for this feature, determining how it works.To move data (and settings) from your current Windows 10 PC to a new Windows 11 device, both computers need to be on the same network. That can mean they’re connected wirelessly, or possibly also via a wired connection (support for the latter isn’t certain yet, but it seems likely enough to me).You then use a code to confirm the link between the two PCs (ensuring you have the right target device), select the data you wish to migrate (it’s not yet clear exactly what options will be available), and the transfer will proceed.Analysis: The potential scrapheap on the horizon(Image credit: Marjan Apostolovic / Shutterstock)Normally, with a feature that’s hidden in a test build like this – one that must be enabled using a Windows configuration utility – I’d expect to have a fair bit of a wait for it to actually arrive. Remember, it must, of course, be live in testing first before it reaches the finished version of Windows 10.However, in this case, it’s worth noting that the Release Preview channel is the final stage of preview builds before release (as the name indicates). Furthermore, when enabled, while the PC-to-PC migration ability warns that it’s still “in user testing” (by which Microsoft means internal testing within the company) and doesn’t work properly, the text adds that the “full version [is] coming soon.”So, we should get this sooner rather than later, which as I already touched on, makes sense. Mainly because Microsoft is absolutely going to want this feature in place for when Windows 10 reaches its End of Life, which is only four months away, in order to help folks migrate to a new Windows 11 PC (if they can’t upgrade to the newer OS, due to their current device failing to meet the hardware requirements).Of course, as you may well have noticed, Microsoft has been engaged in a wider campaign to push the sales of new Windows 11 PCs (especially Copilot+ devices), and that has proved controversial. Accusations have been levelled at the OS maker for letting environmental concerns slide, and a potentially towering mountain of scrapped PCs heading to landfill, unless Windows 10 PC owners can find an alternative to buying a new computer come October 2025.There is one official escape route: paying for an additional year of security updates for Windows 10, though that’s just kicking the can down the line some way. However, of late, there’s been a lot of focus on upgrading to Linux instead, and campaigns to switch away from the Windows ecosystem entirely as a way to keep older hardware alive and kicking.In some ways, it’s going to be interesting to see how this plays out, but the potential environmental impact is not a comforting prospect. My hope is that Microsoft may see fit to provide extended security updates for beyond a year for consumers running Windows 10, without charging a fortune for the privilege – though I’m not all that hopeful of this becoming a reality.You might also like...Windows 11 is getting some big upgrades to tackle dreaded boot failures – and help novices set up their new PCBeen hiding from Windows 11 24H2 due to the fuss about all the bugs?

Chord has officially launched the elite Suzi Pre and Suzi Amp Both were shown in prototype only at High End Munich 2024 Chord lists ficw possible configurations – here's the breakdown Love a TechRadar heritage review? Me too! Grab something refreshing and check out our Chord Chordette review from 2010 (what a name) for five minutes.Back to the news at hand now, and although High End Munich 2025 saw UK hi-fi specialist Chord tease something "groundbreaking", it's the company's 2024 two-strong prototype reveal that's finally available to buy now – and that I want to shine a light on.I don't actually know if the pair were named after Suzi Quatro, but that is what I want to believe. Furthermore, anyone who plans on discrediting my assumption has a heart of stone, because she rocks. (Sorry, eds. More of this throughout).Suzi Amp with the Hugo 2 (Image credit: Chord)Suzi Pre and Suzi Amp: specs, pricing, Quatro references…Breakdown? Of course. As you'd expect, the Suzi Pre preamp and Suzi Amp stereo power amplifier can be used in isolation, or in combination as a pre/power amp, but Chord explains that the 30-watt Suzi Amp can also seamlessly integrate with the company's flagship Hugo 2 DAC (although not the minor step-down Qutest model).And there's more. When the Suzi Amp is paired with the aforementioned Hugo 2 DAC and the company's 2go streamer, it transforms into a streaming amplifier complete with Roon Endpoint and DLNA/UPnP connectivity, plus the potential for 2TB maximum onboard solid state storage, using the 2go’s twin MicroSD slots.But let's keep a knockin' with Chord's full Suzi concept guide, including five potential configurations. Yes, I'd kind of hoped for a 48 crash too, but five will do…Suzi Pre: a standalone analog preamp with a phono stage and headphone outputSuzi Amp: a standalone stereo power ampSuzi Pre/Suzi Amp: a compact pre/power amplifier with phono stage and headphone outSuzi Amp with a Hugo 2: a DAC/amplifier (add USB-C/B inputs with the Multiplexer accessory)Suzi Amp with a Hugo 2 and 2go: a streaming DAC/amp with up to 2 TB microSD storageShould you buy both? Well, your mama won't like me (and neither will your bank balance) but there's plenty to love – they make me smile, at any rate.The Suzi Pre boasts a premium built-in MM/MC phono stage (for connectivity with the best turntables, irrespective of your deck's cartridge) with selectable gain and impedance, accessible via top-panel controls or the bundled remote control. It features both 3.5mm and 6.35mm headphone outputs, three RCA inputs, one RCA output, and a 12V DC output. A central polychromatic control sphere takes care of volume and input selection.The Suzi Amp power amplifier incorporates Chord Electronics' proprietary ULTIMA amplifier topology, boasting 30 watts of stereo power in a remarkably compact design (so it's hardly too big for your home). It features 4mm banana loudspeaker outputs, RCA inputs and a removable solid aluminum cover block exposing connections for the direct integration of the Suzi Pre or Hugo 2.Chord tells me that front-panel polychromatic buttons control power and the AV bypass feature, and that casework venting should regulate the temperature. A 12 V DC output is also there, for compatibility with other Chord Electronics devices. A headphone pass-through (3.5mm and 6.35mm) is also active when the Suzi Amp is connected to the Suzi Pre or Hugo 2.Suzi Pre and Suzi Amp, in black (also available in silver finish) (Image credit: Chord )If you're considering the Hugo 2 and Suzi Amp combination (good shout – me too), Chord Electronics is keen to emphasize that it also offers a separate USB multiplexer expansion accessory. This connects to the Hugo 2’s dual micro USB inputs and adds USB-B data inputs plus USB-C data and charging.The Suzi Amp is even supplied with a charging bridge accessory for use with the Hugo 2 DAC. Said charging bridge provides juicing power to the Hugo 2 when the Suzi Amp is switched off, keeping the Hugo 2 fully charged for portable use and offering a convenient 5 V USB-C power output for devices.Let's head down the devil gate drive of pricing, shall we? Suzi Pre comes with a list price of £1,995 (so around $2,700 or AU$4,150, as a rough guide). The Suzi Amp is the Daytona demon of the duo though – the wild one, if you will – in that it is priced at £3,400 (or around $4,600 or AU$7,000, before duties). That USB Multiplexer? It's a snip at £300.All are available now. My advice?
