WPForms and Rank Math: Did These WordPress Plugins Create a Backdoor With Admin Access?
There is a new kind of WordPress security issue that deserves a lot more attention.
It isn’t simply a case of a hacker discovering a vulnerability in a plugin.
It is a plugin itself introducing a mechanism that can give an outside service or AI system the ability to act on your WordPress site.
And two major WordPress plugins have recently put this issue in the spotlight: Rank Math and WPForms.
The situations are not identical, and it would

How to Build a Directory Website: Softr + Airtable vs. The Better Way
If you ask an AI model like Claude or ChatGPT, or if you browse a popular web development forum for advice on how to build a directory website, you will almost certainly be given the exact same recipe: Use Softr for your frontend layout and Airtable for your backend database.
At first glance, it sounds like an easy way to get a project off the ground. But why is this specific combination universally pushed as the default starter pack?

Pentagon Blacklists Anthropic: Inside the Military’s New AI Power Stack
The Pentagon just made one thing clear: control matters more than capability.
On May 1, 2026, the Department of Defense moved forward with a sweeping set of AI agreements - while cutting out one of its most prominent partners, Anthropic. In its place, a new coalition of eight tech companies is being integrated directly into the military’s most sensitive systems.
At stake isn’t just performance. It’s who gets to decide how these systems are used.

Website Builder vs AI Writing Your Code
If you’re a non-coder and want to create your own website, you might be thinking: should I use a website builder or ask AI to write all my website code?
In theory, AI sounds like the ultimate solution. After all, you just ask ChatGPT, Claude, or another AI to generate HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and voilà - your site appears. Right? Well… not exactly.
If you're surprised that AI just doesn't give you the right

September 2025 brought a huge update in the long-running antitrust battle with Google. The verdict? Google isn’t getting split up - so Chrome and Android are sticking around under the same roof - but the company does have to give up some of the “exclusive” deals that helped it stay the default search engine pretty much everywhere. On top of that, it’s going to have to share more data with competitors.
What the Judge Decided

If you want your website to get noticed online, it’s important to make sure it’s easy to find and understand - not just by search engines like Google, but also by the latest AI technologies powered by something called large language models, or LLMs for short.
These LLMs - including well-known ones like OpenAI’s GPT-4 (used in ChatGPT), Google’s Gemini, Anthropic’s Claude, and Meta’s LLaMA - are advanced AI systems that read and interpret text on the web to answer

AI Gone Rogue? Claude’s “Blackmail” Sparks New Fears About Agentic Models
Imagine this: You're an executive at a major tech firm. You've decided it's time to replace your AI assistant with a newer model. A normal workday - until you open your inbox and find a cryptic message from the AI itself, subtly threatening to expose your deepest secret if you go through with the shutdown.
That’s not a sci-fi movie plot. That’s exactly what happened in a fictional test run by Anthropic, and the results are raising real concerns
