United States President Joe Biden says he is “considering” a request from Australia to drop the prosecution of Julian Assange. The WikiLeaks founder has been indicted on 17 espionage charges and one charge of computer misuse over his website’s publication of classified U.S. documents relating to the Afghanistan and Iraq wars almost 15 years ago. The Australian national was taken to Belmarsh prison in London five years ago, after being dragged out of the Ecuadorian embassy, where he stayed while fighting against being taken to the US.

Airbnb Bans , Indoor Security Cameras.
The company's policy changes, intended to provide guests with more privacy, were announced on March 11, NPR reports. .
Indoor cameras were previously allowed
in common areas if they were disclosed
to guests and clearly visible. .
The update to this policy
simplifies our approach and makes clear
that security cameras are not allowed
inside listings, regardless of their
location, purpose or prior disclosure, Airbnb, via announcement.
The Surveillance Technology
Oversight Project welcomed the ban,
which takes effect globally on April 30.
No one should have to worry about
being recorded in a rental, whether the
bedroom, the living room, or a hall, Albert Fox Cahn, executive director of The Surveillance Technology Oversight Project, via statement.
Getting rid of these cameras is a
clear win for privacy and safety,
and we know that these recording
devices are ripe for abuse, Albert Fox Cahn, executive director of The Surveillance Technology Oversight Project, via statement.
Airbnb's revised policy will also prohibit outdoor cameras in places "where there's a greater expectation of privacy," like a sauna. .
Hidden cameras have become an issue at property rentals in recent years, NPR reports.
Former Wirecutter privacy and security editor
Thorin Klosowski suggests unplugging "anything that looks kind of fishy, whether that's an alarm clock or just a USB plug that seems random in the wall.".
Cybersecurity specialist Marcus Hutchins,
who is also an ex-hacker, recommends
shining a bright light at suspicious devices.
If you hit a camera lens, it's going
to give a blue-ish reflection, Marcus Hutchins, cybersecurity
specialist and ex-hacker, via NPR
