The night of December 10, 2025, is a study in contrasts. While a new Netwrix report reveals a terrifying 32% spike in identity-based AI attacks, causing a global rethink of cybersecurity strategies, gamers are celebrating a flood of December releases like Marvel’s Cosmic Invasion. Simultaneously, the mobile market has crashed prices, with the Pixel 10 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 seeing historic discounts to push AI adoption. But the hottest topic tonight? Leaked internal documents suggesting Microsoft is killing the "Start Menu" in Windows 12.
