NUIT, for Near-Ultrasound Inaudible Trojan, that exploits vulnerabilities in smart device microphones and voice assistants to silently and remotely access smart phones and home devices... millions of other devices, from laptops to speakers, lights, garage door openers and front door locks, could be remotely hijacked, using carefully crafted near-ultrasonic sounds.

yeah, and I wish more ppl would read this... someone native English speaker should make more posts with more exciting titles I guess :)
I was thinking about fonts.
I found this statement recently, on German NGO website promoting referendum in Berlin to become green city in 2030, they take donations and all info put when donating should be staying in Germany I thought, but since they use google fonts, it goes strait to US too. This is part of their privacy policy:
The legal basis for the use of Google Fonts and the data processing described above in this context is in the legitimate interest of the betterplace.org (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). Our legitimate interests lie in the efficient and user-friendly design of our offer. Due to the significantly better availability and speed of page access, we decided against a local integration of the fonts."
So, if this is usual, that all sorts of info are transmitted via fonts,,, and with I found about that shaking/bleeping fonts on reddit, when Windows11 was not even a month out, and probably them didn't know it can be seen with bare eye somewhere... well, if you shake/bleep some info inside some text, that in theory could send message to turn something on too... not sure, just thinking, but interesting.
