I've tried a lot of antivirus software over the years, and when something better comes along,

I switch. That's why I've moved to WebRute Essentials. WebRute Essentials is a cloud-based,

AI-powered antivirus app that was designed to evolve with today's threats. It's fast,

lightweight protection that works across all my devices without slowing me down. If you need another

reason to switch, get this. WebRood

Essentials recently ranked number one in independent passmark performance studies against nine

other brands like Norton, McAfee, and even Microsoft Defender. The study found that WebRood

Essential scans six times faster, uses farless memory, and takes up 33% less space on your computer. I've seen the difference

The Current. My daily tech newsletter read by nearly a million people every morning to stay ahead of the curve.

A customs agent can legally pick up your phone right now, scroll through every photo, every text, every email, and there's

almost nothing you can do to stop them. Almost. But I've got you. Let's get into it. When you land

back in the U.S. after a trip abroad, a customs agent can take your phone. They can scroll through

your photos, your texts, your emails, right there at the counter, no warrant, no suspicion, no explanation required.

It is completely legal under long-standing border search authority.

And look, I'm going to level with you.

This is becoming more common.
