Tiny 5D Data Storage Disc Can Store 360Tb Of Data And Last For Billion Of Years Techworm

Using nanostructured glass, scientists from the University’s Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) have developed the recording and retrieval processes of five dimensional (5D) digital data by femtosecond laser writing. The researchers used femtosecond laser pulses to write data in the 3D structure of quartz at the nanoscale. The pulses create three layers of nanostructured dots, each just five microns above the other. The changes in the structure can be read by interrogating the sample with another pulse of light and recording its polarisation —the orientation of the waves—after it’s passed through....

Top Websites Secretly Track Web Users Using Audio Fingerprinting Techworm

In other words, the new technique is based on fingerprinting a machine’s audio stack “via the AudioContext API.” Basically, it is gathering the audio signature of the individual machine and using that as an identifier to track a web user and not collecting sound played or recorded on a machine.

A third-party tracker uses the AudioContext API to send low-frequency sounds to a user’s computer and then measures how the computer processes the data, creating a unique fingerprint based on the hardware and software capabilities of the user’s computer....
