A GitHub issue filed against postmanlabs/postman-app-support \(\14370\) alleges that Postman silently installs AI plugins and transmits API request data to its own servers, including the resolved values of templated variables such as \\{\{some\secret\}\}\ used in query parameters. Commenters in the associated Hacker News thread \(roughly 993 points and 329 comments\) report that blocking traffic to the logging endpoint breaks the application, and that the tool does not meet HIPAA requirements. The claims come from the issue and community discussion and were not independently verified in the supplied material, and Postman has not responded in the available evidence. Some developers say they have already moved to the Git-friendly alternative Bruno as a result.

Apple says it will begin checking iCloud content shared through “anyone with the link” links for harmful material starting with iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and visionOS 27.3. Content shared only with specified people is not covered, according to the report. If content is judged harmful, Apple reserves the right to move, refuse, modify, or delete it, and may restrict or disable accounts that upload harmful material and refer cases to law enforcement when necessary.

In a YouTube video, researcher Colsto demonstrates an OSINT technique that extracts nearly imperceptible aircraft background noise from a video&\x27;s soundtrack, derives the planes&\x27; Doppler curves, and cross-references them against ADS-B flight data. By combining speed, distance, and the gaps between different overflights, the method can narrow a recording to a specific location, according to Simon Willison&\x27;s link post, which calls it a "genius piece of OSINT." The post is brief and points to the video rather than independently verifying the result, so the exact-location claim rests on the demonstration itself.
