After attacking a major healthcare provider in Australia earlier this year, cybercriminals dumped a large selection of data to the internet this week, including customers’ personal health information. The leak reportedly includes sensitive documents related to some patients’ medical procedures, including pregnancies…

Apple Testing Song Lyrics for Apple Music Web Player
The design of the lyric interface mimics the design of song lyrics available through the Apple Music app on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, with the lyrics scrolling in time to the music on the right side of the screen. The feature is only on the beta web player as of right now, but Apple will likely roll it out to the music.apple.com website in the future after it has been fully tested.
Apple has offered a web-based Apple Music player since 2019, with the website offering the same content available on iOS devices and Macs. The website allows Apple Music subscribers to listen to music on any device as songs play right in the browser.
Anyone can view the web player and listen to snippets of songs, but full access requires an Apple Music subscription tied to an Apple ID. It provides access to all library and playlist content, along with the same recommendations and mixes available in the Apple Music apps for iOS, Mac, and Android.

Tim Berners-Lee Wants Us To ‘Ignore’ Web3, It’s ‘Not the Web at All’
“You have to understand what the terms mean that we’re discussing actually mean, beyond the buzzwords. It’s a real shame in fact that the actual Web3 name was taken by Ethereum folks for the stuff that they’re doing with blockchain. In fact, Web3 is not the web at all,” he said.

Instagram won’t make an iPad app, but its web interface is getting better
![Screenshot of the new Instagram for web design, which features a sidebar navigation scheme.](https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/MbDbM6XThbvmpyAoDmXysxLpY3s=/0x0:1798x1199/1310x873/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/71571868/Screen_Shot_2022_11_01_at_3.28.32_PM.0.png)
Instagram’s CEO has made it clear that an iPad app isn’t a huge priority for the company, but it is at least doing something to make the big-screen experience better. Some people, including a few members of The Verge’s staff, have started noticing a slightly redesigned version of Instagram for the web, which features a navigation sidebar with links to pages like search, explore, messages, and notifications instead of having those as unlabeled buttons at the top.
The design is relatively similar to how Twitter is laid out and definitely seems more at home on a bigger screen — you get more info about what the buttons are and what they do, and the options to access settings, your saved posts, or the ability to switch accounts have been…
This Microsoft Outlook for Web update could stop embarrassing email fails for good
Apple’s new iCloud web interface is much more useful than before
iCloud has been available on the web for a long time, but you might not have rushed to use it given a basic and sometimes clunky interface. You might have a reason to give it another look, though. Apple has introduced a beta iCloud web client that presents far more info at a glance, with a customizable tile layout that reflects your priorities. It’s easier to switch between apps thanks to launchers on the home page and menu bar, and you can quickly start tasks (such as writing email or adding calendar events) thanks to another menu option.
The revamp also improves access to iCloud+ features like custom email domains and Hide My Email. And if you’re panicking at the thought of lost info, a “Data Recovery” tool will help you reclaim bookmarks, calendars, contacts and iCloud Drive files deleted within the last 30 days. Except for iCloud Drive, you can restore from specific moments in time. Some features still need to be controlled through Apple hardware, including Family Sharing, HomeKit Secure Video and Private Relay.
Apple hasn’t said when the new iCloud web interface might leave beta testing. We’ve asked the company for comment and will let you know if we hear back. However, the tech firm pitches this as an upgrade for customers whose only Apple product might be an iPhone — you can more readily access content and manage services through your Windows PC’s browser.
This redesign probably won’t persuade Android users to switch, and the individual web apps haven’t changed much. The beta may encourage you to stick to the Apple ecosystem, though. Combined with web access to services like Music and TV+, it also shows that Apple is eager to court users who can’t (or just don’t want to) run dedicated apps on their platforms of choice.
