The Baltimore, Maryland-based athletic company Under Armour announced its MyFitnessPal exercise app was involved in a massive information breach, with upwards of 150 million user accounts potentially affected. Of the hacked data, the brand says only usernames, email addresses, and hashed password information was breached, so it appears (at this time) that no financial information was compromised — which could be seen as somewhat of a silver lining considering how prevalent hacks and breaches have become.
An Under Armour-affiliated application since 2015, MyFitnessPal is a diet and exercise program designed to not just track daily activity but also to motivate its users. The app had around 80 million users prior to its acquisition, but Under Armour’s already-established network of brand loyalists and gear supporters allowed it to grow to more than 165 million users.
Under Armour reports that it was alerted to the breach on March 25 — and that it occurred in February. Upon learning of its severity, the brand “quickly took steps to determine the nature and scope of the issue.” This includes notifying law enforcement, working with data firms to assist in the investigation, alerting its user base and asking for password changes, and monitoring any suspicious behavior. The brand said it strongly recommends any MyFitnessPal user to immediately change their password as a precautionary measure, even if they aren’t necessarily involved in the breach.
“Four days after learning of the issue, the company began notifying the MyFitnessPal community via email and through in-app messaging. The notice contains recommendations for MyFitnessPal users regarding account security steps they can take to help protect their information,” said Under Armour in a statement. “The company will be requiring MyFitnessPal users to change their passwords and is urging users to do so immediately.”
The statement goes on to recommend that users be aware of any solicitation for them to provide personal information and to avoid, at all costs, clicking on any links or attachments in suspicious emails. Under Armour also provided additional information about how to change a password and how to better safeguard user information, as well as a list of frequently asked questions surrounding the breach.
Speech-to-text apps have flooded the App Store, making it easier than ever to type on our Macs with just our voice. I have previously covered one such app called TypeWhisper. However, there has been a dearth of good text-to-speech models, and most of the good ones are locked behind a subscription.
Ollama, an open-source app that lets you run local AI models on your computer, wants to change that. It works on macOS, Windows, and Linux, and your prompts are never stored or used for training.
Did you think hitting delete on your AI chatbot conversation actually makes it disappear? Georgia Tech researchers just proved that's not entirely true. They have built a forensic tool called ORISA that can dig deleted conversations from your phone and even rebuild them into a working chatbot session you can keep talking to.
How can ORISA bring deleted AI conversations back?
Touchscreen laptops have been around for years. You can get them in all sizes and shapes. Just not from Apple. For years, the Cupertino giant has treated the idea of a touchscreen MacBook the way I treat a meeting that could have been an email: with open contempt. However, Wednesday looks like the day the company could finally change its mind.
The latest Apple invite puts the “Pro and Tell” showcase in Los Angeles at 10 a.m. PT (1 p.m. ET) on October 28, 2026. Instead of a regular live-streamed keynote, it is an invitation-only, hands-on event for a handful of press and creators (similar to what the company did for the MacBook Neo earlier this year).
