Getty Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald responded to a question on whether new guard Beau Stephens will play on the left or right side. The Seattle Seahawks spent the first two days of the 2026 NFL Draft addressing the remaining holes on their Super Bowl roster. But then early on Day 3, the Seahawks added an offensive lineman. Seattle will return all five offensive line starters from its Super Bowl lineup. So, it’s not clear fifth-round guard Beau Stephens will have an opportunity to compete for a starting job as a rookie. The Seahawks, though, traded up to ensure landing Stephens. After the 2026 NFL Draft, head coach Mike Macdonald made it clear to reporters the guard could have a chance to play on either side of the line to begin this career. “We’ll figure all that out later,” Macdonald told the media when asked about Stephens’s position. The Seahawks selected Stephens at No. 148 overall in the fifth round Saturday. The team sent a 2027 fourth-round pick to the Cleveland Browns to move up the board to land him. “It was too big of a gap and too much talent there,” said Seahawks general manager John Schneider on

WhatsApp has quietly become part of your daily infrastructure. It is where you handle family chats, school groups, side gigs, and friends abroad, and you never have to ask what it costs because the answer has always been “nothing.” Now Meta is experimenting with changing that. The company is testing a new paid tier called WhatsApp Plus, an optional subscription that layers extra customization and organization tools on top of the regular app. On the surface, it sounds harmless. In reality, it is Meta probing a deeper question: how many of WhatsApp’s billions of users would actually pay for features on a service they have always treated as free? Meta confirmed that it is “testing a new, optional subscription called WhatsApp Plus, designed for users who want more ways to organize and personalize their experience,” a spokesperson said. The test is already live for a subset of users who see in‑app prompts to upgrade to WhatsApp Plus for extra tools, Social Media Today reported. That is the part that matters for your wallet. The real story is not whether these first perks are worth a few dollars, but whether this is the moment WhatsApp starts to shift from “free, period”

ⓘ Freepik.com Morpheus Android spyware uses fake update apps and telecom provider cooperation to hijack WhatsApp accounts. Morpheus Android spyware, linked to Italian firm IPS, tricks targets into installing a fake update app by cutting off their mobile data first, then hijacks their WhatsApp account using biometric spoofing. A newly exposed spyware operation is using fake Android update apps to plant surveillance software on targets' devices, with the infection chain requiring active cooperation from the victim's own mobile network provider.  The spyware, named Morpheus by researchers, was uncovered by Italian digital rights organization Osservatorio Nessuno in a report published April 24 and first reported by TechCrunch. How the infection works Morpheus is classified as low-cost spyware because it relies on social engineering rather than the zero-click exploits used by more advanced tools like NSO Group's Pegasus or Paragon Solutions. The attack requires the target to install the malicious app themselves, but the method used to get them there is deliberate and documented. The target's mobile data is first deliberately blocked by their telecom provider, working in coordination with the authorities deploying the spyware. With their data cut off, the target receives an SMS instructing them to install an app to
