This week in tech, the team covers a ground-breaking article about Ubuntu that isn’t what it seems. In Cloud news, Amazon has opened Sidewalk, its slow but far-reaching data network, for free public use. A new privacy-focused browser called Mullvad was released this week based on the Firefox browser. In security news, Microsoft began previewing its Security Copilot, an AI-powered cybersecurity defense tool. Two North Carolina residents were arrested after cutting over 2,000 fiber optic cables, cutting internet access for over 40,000 people.
