California ’s Misguided Effort to Stifle COVID Scientific Discourse
Jeffrey A. SingerOn September 12, the California legislature sent to Governor Newsom ’s deskAB-2098, that “would designate the dissemination [by physicians and surgeons] of misinformation or disinformation related to the SARS‐CoV‑2 coronavirus, or ‘COVID-19,’ as unprofessional conduct,” which means they may be sanctioned or lose their license.

Chaos Continues After Ransomware Hits UK ’ s NHS
The following is a guest article by Itay Bochner, Director of Malware Analysis at OPSWAT.

The ransomware attack on Advanced, one of the UK’s biggest software providers for its National Healthcare System, is turning into one of the biggest c...
