This reminds me: I got a Logitech mouse as a gift a while back, and to get it functioning I needed to install a settings app for it for some reason. Today, I find in my Task Manager that they somehow installed an AI assistant platform thing using that settings app. I’m currently in the market for a new mouse lol.

Authority (Who wrote this article? What are their qualifications?)

Accuracy (Is this information accurate? Can you cross-reference with other articles or papers?)

Purpose (What was the author’s purpose in writing this? Were they paid to write this piece?)

(Edit: formatting)

To save you visiting the hellscape that is The Independent: those 3 words were “What the fuck?” Nothing really remarkable.
