If a hacker takes over your social media, like Facebook, the first step to regain account access is to determine if you still have access to the account. Getty Facebook hacking — the takeover of your account by a criminal — can happen to anybody. The rise of AI scams is also making it easier for hackers to impersonate through AI voice cloning, and other techniques. When hackers get hold of your login details and personal information, they can use it to hijack your account and lock you out. They can then carry out activities including scamming you or your friends, blackmail and fraud or even exploiting passwords you’ve reused elsewhere to access other sites you use and steal your cash. Here’s what to do if you suspect that your Facebook account has been hacked. Did Your Facebook Get Hacked? There are a number of signs that your Facebook has been h

The post Bitcoin Mining Stocks Sink 20% – How Did BTC Price Avoid the Damage? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin mining stocks have fallen roughly 20% as investor enthusiasm for AI and semiconductors cools, according to a July 7 report from 10x Research. Bitcoin (BTC) itself has largely sidestepped the damage. The research firm argues that miners now trade as AI infrastructure companies rather than Bitcoin proxies. Their shares respond to chip supply chains and compute demand instead of crypto market signals. Bitcoin Mining Stocks Now Trade Like Semiconductor Plays According to the report, mining equities have largely decoupled from Bitcoin after a sharp rally and an equally sharp reversal.

The post New EU car rules bring driver-facing cameras, and higher costs appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The European Union (EU) road safety drive just shifted into top gear as regulations in the bloc have evolved to the point where, as of today, July 7, every new car and van registered in the EU must ship with an infrared camera permanently directed at the driver’s face.  A standoff is now brewing as the EU’s explanation that the new update is its solution to drastically bring down road accidents has proven insufficient for critics, who insist that the privacy and extra expense tradeoff is a bad deal for drivers. While that drama plays out, motorists in any of the 27 member states where the new rule applies have to make choices, and none are comfortable.  Option A: Take a vehicle that studies your eyes, blinks, and gaze every time the engine runs. Option B: Hold on to an older car where the new infrared camera rules don’t apply. For drivers on the safety lane, Tesla’s Full Self-Dr
