🚗 KIA Cars Hacked by License Plate? Yup, That Happened 🐾

So, hackers figured out how to mess with KIA cars using a tool called KIAtool, which basically gave them full control. By converting a license plate into a VIN number through a sneaky API, they could log into the owner's KIA account and do whatever they wanted — unlock, start, or track the car like it’s some kind of real-world video game 🚘🥲

However, hackers reported it to KIA, and the problem’s fixed 🐾

Looks like KIA cars were almost as easy to open as a can of tuna… at least the hackers didn’t figure out how to summon laser pointers! 😸

According to Forbes, on September 27th, Changpeng’s assets (including crypto holdings and Binance shares) were valued at $61 billion. Back in July, that number was $58 billion!

Seems like CZ’s wealth is multiplying faster than kittens! 🐱

🐾 Reddit Cracks Down on Moderator Protests 🚨

Reddit's been sharpening its claws! 🐾 The platform just rolled out a new policy that restricts moderators from freely changing subreddit visibility — like flipping between public, private, or even NSFW modes — without getting admin approval first. This move comes after last year's protests against API pricing changes, where subreddits went "dark" as a form of rebellion.

Now, if mods want to make their subreddit invisible or switch it up, they'll need Reddit's purr-mission first!🐱 Some users aren’t too happy, though. They’re worried that this limits mods' ability to protest and could even lead to a drop in content quality 📉👎

Looks like Reddit's trying to keep the protests from turning into a full-on cat-astrophe! 👀
