Shaky internet? Have someone else upload your files to Google’s Cloud Storage platform

Google is rolling out a solution that will allow users to send their physical media to a third party where it can be uploaded to the cloud, as announced on its Cloud Storage Platform page. Essentially, users could have used Google Cloud Storage to do this on their own all along, but the third party solution allows users with unreliable, slow, or expensive Internet connections to make use of the cloud.

Physical media like hard disk drives (HDDs), tapes, and USB flash drives can be uploaded by third party companies. Presumably, other types of physical storage would also be supported, as there could be people out there with tons of floppy disks or Zip disks as well, but Google doesn’t officially list those.

Users can choose any third party that is able to get the data from their physical media and upload it, though Google does officially list one services on its page; a company called Iron Mountain for those in the USA. For those outside the US, Google simply lists that companies are “Coming Soon.” This means that users in those parts of the world will need to find their own service that can extract and upload the data.

While this feature is fully supported by Google, it also points out that arrangements need to be made between the user and the company doing it. Google is not involved in the process outside of being the company actually hosting the files. It also points out that it “does not provide, support or endorse Offline Media Import / Export services, and does not receive a fee or commission from Offline Media Import / Export services.”

Google charges separately for its Cloud Storage platform based on data stored and bandwidth. Prices vary based on where in the world the bandwidth is from, and the type of storage the users need.

This gorgeous Mac mini hub exacerbates the power button placement problem

M4 Mac mini with Satechi hub on a desk.

Satechi, known for its high-quality tech accessories, is updating its Mac mini hub for the new M4 model. Like previous hubs, it allows Mac mini owners to expand their storage and ports while preserving airflow, wireless signal, and performance. It looks awesome, but this time, the design highlights the problematic nature of the new Mac mini's placement of its power button.

With previous Mac mini models, the power button was at the back, making it easily accessible even when it was in a Satechi hub. The new button placement on the bottom of the PC, however, may prove even more annoying for anyone who wants to buy this accessory.

Proton VPN vs. Mullvad: Which is the best open-source VPN?

Proton VPN Plus and Mullvad websites appear in a split-screen on a PC monitor.

Open-source software is exploding in popularity and even virtual private networks (VPNs) share code for transparency. With over 100 million open-source developers contributing to the community, there’s an improved chance to find bugs and patch vulnerabilities.

Proton VPN and Mullvad are among the best VPNs available, and both are open-source solutions. You can browse the code used in Proton VPN and Mullvad on GitHub to check that there isn’t any secret logging or undisclosed data collection.

Some older D-Link routers are vulnerable to attack

D-Link Omna 180 Cam HD

A few legacy D-Link routers can be vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE) attacks since the company refuses to send any updates to patch them up, claiming they have reached end-of-life, as recently posted on its announcement page.

The vulnerability is a serious issue since it allows hackers to take control from anywhere in the world and use a stack buffer overflow. This attack sends more data than the buffer size can handle, potentially corrupting critical information like the return address. Thus, hackers can take control of your PC. However, the company did not detail how the threat works, possibly not informing the hackers too much about the issue.
