You all are already using ad-blockers and tracking protection, and many don't use Meta's products, but still, just in case. "In a blog post on Tuesday, Meta explains that it already uses your off-platform activity, like the games you play or your purchases on other websites, to serve you ads. But now it’s expanding the scope of the content it personalizes across Facebook and Instagram." https://about.fb.com/news/2026/06/better-personalization-and-changes-to-controls-for-your-activity-from-other-businesses/ Via (paywalled) https://www.theverge.com/tech/946744/meta-website-activity-personalize-feeds (note the article has a broken link to Meta's announcement) #news #technology #TechNews #meta #facebook #instagram #privacy #security #surveillance #SurveillanceCapitalism

AI isn't just hungry for GPUs anymore — it's eating CPUs too. In 2026, server CPU lead times have stretched up to a year, prices are up 20%, and both Intel and AMD are sold out. The culprit? The shift from AI training to real-time agentic AI, which is pushing CPU-to-GPU ratios from 1:8 toward 1:1 in data centers. If you're managing IT assets, this changes your buying AND selling calculus. We break down what's driving the crunch, what's coming next (hint: Nova Lake and Zen 6 are both delayed to 2027), and how to turn the shortage to your advantage. https://www.buysellram.com/blog/why-ai-is-causing-a-global-cpu-shortage-and-what-it-means-for-your-business/ #ServerCPU #CPUShortage #AIInfrastructure #Intel #AMD #ITAD #DataCenter #ITAssetManagement #TechNews #EnterpriseIT #CPUPrices2026 #AgenticAI #technology
