Things I have recently spotted that may be of interest to others*
Computing:
A Conversation writer tells us that a new spyware threat can be installed on your phone or computer without your knowledge, or in spite of you not doing dumb things like opening an attachment you don't recognize.
Finances:
NPR reports on those swipe fees that you probably didn't know you were paying when you use a credit card. "Robin Hood in reverse."
Science: The Tasmanian Tiger has been extinct for nearly a century, but scientists have been able to copy some of its RNA (I'm not sure how much), according to a Gizmodo report.
Gizmodo (and other outlets) report that Carbon has been found on Europa, a moon of Saturn.
