Halo Infinite is about to get its last major update
On November 18th, Operation: Infinite will be released for Halo Infinite players with a battle pass and lots of new customizations, but according to the team, that’s it for this game’s content updates:
With multiple Halo titles in development, we’ll need our whole team’s combined focus to deliver new experiences with the same passion and care that our community has given us. While we remain committed to supporting Halo Infinite on the road ahead, Operation: Infinite is the last major content update currently planned.
Now, the team writes, “we’ve been floored by the response” to Campaign Evolved, which will be released on both PS5 and Xbox next year.

Sony’s AI graphics upscaling for PS5 Pro games is getting a big update tonight
Sony’s upgraded PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) technology is rolling out to several titles on the PS5 Pro, including Cyberpunk 2077, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Silent Hill 2, and more. Digital Foundry got a chance to test some of them and found that the “new upscaler delivers the kind of upgrade we were looking for from PS5 Pro.” Problems with shimmering, flickering, and other visual artifacts have been addressed, and they said it now delivers crisper and more consistent in-game graphics.
This is the first upgrade we’ve seen from AMD and Sony’s combined Project Amethyst work on improving the effect of rendering a game at a lower resolution, then using AI trained on graphics to analyze each frame and upscale it, delivering improved quality on the same hardware without reducing the framerate. The upgraded PSSR is included with the latest PS5 system software update, which will start rolling out “in phases” on March 17th at 1AM ET, and Sony says its improvements will also improve AMD’s next FSR update when that rolls out.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows and Cyberpunk 2077 will also get a patch with the PSSR update in the “coming weeks,” while CrimsonDesert will adopt the tech when the game launches on March 19th, according to Sony. You can also toggle the updated tech on or off for PS5 Pro games not on this list that already support PSSR, though Sony notes that “results may vary by title.”

The email trick that reveals your hidden online accounts
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Most of us have created far more online accounts than we remember. Shopping sites, travel apps, rewards programs, forums and random services all ask for a quick sign-up. At the time, it feels harmless. Years later, those accounts are still sitting online, tied to your email address.
That matters more than you might think. Old accounts increase your digital footprint. They can also expose personal information if a company suffers a data breach. Fortunately, there is a simple way to uncover many of them in just a few minutes. The answer is already sitting in your inbox.

Your email inbox keeps a hidden record of your accounts
Nearly every website sends a confirmation message when you create an account. That means your inbox quietly becomes a timeline of every service you joined.
11 EASY WAYS TO PROTECT YOUR ONLINE PRIVACY IN 2025

Instead of trying to remember dozens of sites, you can search your email and let those messages reveal the accounts for you. In many cases, people discover accounts they forgot about years ago.
- Old shopping stores
- Unused travel sites
- Rewards programs
- Apps you downloaded once
The list can grow quickly once you start looking.
Step 1: Search your inbox for sign-up emails
Start by opening your email account and using the search bar. Try searching these phrases one at a time:
- Welcome
- Verify your email
- Confirm your account
- Create account
- Thanks for signing up
- Account created
These phrases appear in many sign-up emails. As a result, your inbox will often surface dozens of account confirmations. Scroll through the results and pay attention to the companies that appear. You may spot services you have not thought about in years.
Step 2: Scan the sender names
Next, look closely at the companies sending those messages. Many people quickly find accounts from:
- Old shopping sites
- Rewards programs
- Travel accounts
- Apps and services
Make a short list of accounts you no longer use. Even a few minutes of searching can reveal a surprising number. At this point, you have essentially built a cleanup checklist.

Step 3: Log in and delete the accounts
Once you identify a site, visit the official website directly rather than clicking links in old emails. Then look for account settings. Most platforms include an option such as:
- Account Settings
- Delete Account
- Close Account
If you cannot find it, contact the company’s support team and request removal. While it takes a little time, deleting unused accounts reduces the number of places storing your personal information.
Bonus trick: Search for password reset emails
There is another search that often reveals even more accounts. Look for these phrases in your inbox:
- Reset your password
- Password reset request
If those messages appear from a company, it usually means you created an account there at some point. People are often surprised by how many services show up during this search.
Another smart step to shrink your digital footprint
Closing old accounts helps reduce risk. However, your information may still exist in another corner of the internet. Data broker companies collect personal details from apps, websites and public records. They often build profiles that include addresses, phone numbers, browsing habits and more. After removing unused accounts, many people choose to use a data removal service that requests the deletion of those listings. That combination can dramatically reduce the amount of personal information floating around online.

Kurt’s key takeaways
Digital clutter builds quietly over time. Every sign-up adds another account connected to your email address. The good news is that your inbox already holds the map to many of them. A few quick searches can reveal forgotten accounts that have been sitting online for years. Cleaning them up takes some effort, but the payoff is real. Fewer accounts mean fewer places where your personal information can leak or be exposed. So here is something worth thinking about.
If your inbox reveals dozens of forgotten accounts today, how many companies still have your personal information without you even realizing it? Let us know by writing to us at Cyberguy.com.

Aether OS is a computer in a browser built for the AT Protocol
Aether OS puts a full-fledged desktop in your browser that ties directly into the AT Protocol. That means it connects to your Bluesky account and other public records. It offers a pretty full suite of apps, 42 in total, covering text editing, task management, and social media. There’s even a rudimentary tracker for making chiptunes, a DAW, and a video editor.
Of course, part of the appeal is also the cyberpunk good looks that draw obvious inspiration from The Matrix.
Right now, the project is in alpha, and there are a lot of rough edges. Documentation is also basically non-existent. So, if you get stuck trying to use an app, you’re kind of SOL. Oh, and nothing is encrypted or permissioned, so be careful what you store — it’s all publicly visible.
