Medical experts warn that many people continue to think Hepatitis C affects only injection drug users or individuals with obvious medical vulnerabilities. In reality, exposure can happen in ways that feel surprisingly ordinary, through unregulated tattoo studios, improperly sterilised cosmetic procedures, shared grooming tools, unsafe injections, or healthcare exposures that may have happened years...

As reported by The Times, Apple is facing a $32.5 billion class action lawsuit, though the actual suit might be even more notable than the sum. Why is Apple being sued?As The Times reports, the basis for the lawsuit surrounds Apple's collection of biometric data, specifically the data it collected from Illinois citizens. The suit claims Apple violated Illinois law by collecting these users' biometric da...
