Your WhatsApp messages can easily be spied on, and Facebook made sure to keep it that way


In a lot of people’s minds, Facebook is this huge cyber villain that gathers data on everyone and keeps tabs, not unlike Orwell’s Big Brother. And after coming across some information in The Guardian, we can’t really blame them.


Facebook repeatedly claimed that no one can spy on WhatsApp messages, not even its own staff.

Bryan Cranston, Giovanni Ribisi talk about Amazon's 'Sneaky Pete'

'The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild' is out on March 3


The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will be out on March 3, the same day as Nintendo’s new Switch console. It had been widely speculated, but Nintendo made it official: Zelda is a Switch launch title.


The new trailer, which premiered at the tail end of Nintendo’s Jan. 12 Switch reveal, offers one of the most extensive looks at the upcoming game yet. It’s all very big and epic, and seems to play up comparisons the game has drawn to Bethesda open world RPGs like Skyrim.

The Weeknd's video for 'Party Monster' is a frantic, psychedelic trip


Fast cars, bright lights, crosses, women and panthers—is it even a video by The Weeknd if it doesn’t have these elements at least once?


The Toronto crooner may have an effective formula on his hands, but in the vid for “Party Monster,” The Weeknd and director BRTHR manage to take things to another party level. It’s a psychedelic trip with vibrant colors and frantic shots—and with the latest information about his love life, some lyrics (ahem, that Selena line) take on a whole new meaning.
