Kyare Turner, from Washington, D.C., thrived during his first year studying engineering at Morehouse College in Atlanta. But at the start of his sophomore year this August, he wasn’t sure if he’d be able to stay in school. Why? His family was struggling to come up with the $12,360.46 he owed for tuition. Turner turned to mentor Mark Hecker, executive director of Reach Incorporated, a Washington, D.C.-based program that pairs high school tutors with elementary school students in low-income neighborhoods and where Turner worked as a tutor for three years. On a whim, Hecker launched a GoFundMe campaign, raising $15,883 in contributions from 112 people. “I’m glad the community could come together to help a student who was such a strong tutor for us,” Hecker says.

Yahoo confirmó este jueves que datos "asociados a por lo menos 500 millones de cuentas de usuario" han sido robados en lo que puede ser una de los mayores violaciones de seguridad cibérnetica de la historia.
La compañía afirmó que cree que un "agente patrocinado por el Estado" está detrás de la violación de los datos, es decir, una persona que actúa en nombre del gobierno cometió el robo a finales de 2014.
"La información de cuentas puede incluir nombres, direcciones de correo electrónico, números telefónicos, fechas de nacimiento, contraseñas hash (la gran mayoria con bcrypt) y, en algunos casos, preguntas de seguridad y sus respuestas, ecriptadas y no encriptadas". dijo Yahoo en un comunicado.
