Google Messages starts testing end-to-end encryption for RCS group texts

  December 2, 2022 8:52 pm No Comments Google  is starting to test end-to-end encryption (E2EE) in Messages for RCS group chats on  Android . Some users who are enrolled in the  Messages open beta program  will gain access in the coming weeks ahead of a broader rollout. The company said  during its I/O 2022 developer conference  that an E2EE beta for group chats would be available by the end of this year. The move comes 18 months after Google Messages started offering  E2EE for one-on-one conversations  to shield chats from prying eyes. It started testing E2EE in Messages in November 2020, so it may be several months before the privacy feature is enabled for all group chats.

‘Diablo IV’ arrives June 6th, 2023

  December 9, 2022 3:53 am No Comments After more than a decade, the  next desktop Diablo game  is close at hand. Blizzard has  confirmed  that  Diablo IV  will be available on June 6th, 2023. That’s not completely surprising when  the public beta  is due early next year, but it’s worth noting if you’ve been looking forward to the click-fest action RPG for years. Diablo IV  promises to be a revival of a franchise that some say went awry with the third game. You can expect the usual round of new classes and some familiar game mechanics (such as  D2 ‘s skill trees), but the open world title now has more tactical depth, more experimentation and, crucially, a narrative that has a proper chance to unfold. The new story centers around fighting the banished Lilith, Daughter of Hatred, as she returns to Sanctuary. All Hell breaks loose 6.6.23. Pre-purchase  #DiabloIV  and get Open Beta Early Access.   https://t.co/iY1v4BhxGx ...
