It’s been a busy year in cybersecurity, but it’s not over yet. This week, we revealed how hackers figured out how to “jailbreak” digital license plates—which are legally issued in at least a couple of states and are valid across the US—allowing them to change the license plate number to basically anything.

I wish there were more options here. For example, it would be great if the end of one album could result in the start of a similar album, or if I could turn the feature off for albums and on for playlists. Still, it’s nice to have the choice, and I choose to keep this…

Whether a booster is necessary here is often decided on a case-by-case basis—talk to your healthcare provider if you think you may qualify. Those…
