The “security-focused” title update includes changes aimed at improving the security of sessions and messaging, as well as addressing the ability for third-party hackers to modify your game and ban you from playing.

GTA Online hacks and “extreme exploits” spark warnings to stop playing
Running into GTA Online hacks often feels like a common occurrence for PC players of the Rockstar multiplayer game. Things appear to be especially bad right now, though, as players are warning of “extreme exploits” that are apparently severe enough for the creator of one of the most popular anti-cheat solutions to suggest players stop playing the game altogether until it’s resolved.

Pokemon Scarlet And Violet Shiny Hunters Unearth Two Useful New Exploits
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet‘s first week of release has been plagued with bugs, glitches and performance issues–some frustrating, some fun, and others proving useful to creative players. Two new exploits have been discovered that maximize a player’s chance of encountering shiny Pokemon–one that allows you to duplicate a shiny spawn, another that increases the chances of a shiny spawning.
The first, as picked up by Video Games Chronicle, was discovered by YouTuber Austin John Plays, and allows players to capture the same shiny Pokemon multiple times when performed correctly. To work, it has to be in an area near an open town, or another area that doesn’t require a loading screen to enter.
If players find and catch a shiny, or another Pokemon they want to duplicate, in an area matching this description, they can then walk towards the town, and at the point where the town’s name comes up on screen, save and restart the game. When they load back in, the Pokemon they caught will still be in storage, but the wild version of it will have loaded back in the area where it was first encountered, able to be caught again.
