In a startling 00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:02.759 revelation, California's health insurance exchange, 00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:06.459 Covered California, has been transmitting sensitive 00:07:06.459 --> 00:07:09.959 personal health data to LinkedIn during a marketing 00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:14.079 campaign. Forensic testing uncovered that trackers 00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:16.819 on the website shared information about visitors' 00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:20.139 health status, including pregnancy and domestic 00:07:20.139 --> 00:07:23.899 abuse indicators. Following public scrutiny, 00:07:24.439 --> 00:07:27.160 Covered California has removed these trackers 00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:31.920 and is reviewing its privacy protocols. Spokesperson 00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:35.040 Kelly Donahue acknowledged the data sharing and 00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:38.120 emphasized efforts to safeguard consumer information. 00:07:39.180 --> 00:07:42.160 Experts have expressed alarm, stating that users 00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:45.240 expect their health information to remain confidential 00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:49.620 and protected from commercial use. In business 00:07:49.620 --> 00:07:54.009 news, Coinbase is set to launch its Bitcoin Yield 00:07:54.009 --> 00:07:57.389 Fund on May 1st, targeting annualized returns 00:07:57.389 --> 00:08:00.750 of 4 -8 % for non -United States institutional 00:08:00.750 --> 00:08:04.990 investors. The fund aims to generate yield through 00:08:04.990 --> 00:08:08.050 basis trading, which capitalizes on the spread 00:08:08.050 --> 00:08:12.850 between Bitcoin futures and spot prices. Notably, 00:08:12.930 --> 00:08:15.730 this strategy carries risks, especially with 00:08:15.730 --> 00:08:19.810 market volatility. Backed by Abu Dhabi -based 00:08:19.810 --> 00:08:23.050 Aspen Digital, the funds approach contrasts with 00:08:23.050 --> 00:08:26.189 the failed yield platform of BlockFi, which relied 00:08:26.189 --> 00:08:30.209 on lending for returns. As interest in this new 00:08:30.209 --> 00:08:32.990 offering rises, investors should remain cautious 00:08:32.990 --> 00:08:36.269 of potential risks associated with crowded trades. 00:08:36.929 --> 00:08:42.669 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is up 1 % to $95 00:08:42.669 --> 00:08:48.769 ,000.

In the 21st century, personal 00:09:51.399 --> 00:09:54.500 data is increasingly vulnerable, with companies 00:09:54.500 --> 00:09:58.039 profiting from our information. Now, lawmakers 00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:00.399 are raising alarms about companies collecting 00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:04.980 data from brain implants. Senators Chuck Schumer, 00:10:05.100 --> 00:10:08.500 Maria Cantwell, and Edward Markey sent a joint 00:10:08.500 --> 00:10:11.240 letter expressing concern over the handling of 00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:14.500 sensitive neural data. generated by brain -computer 00:10:14.500 --> 00:10:18.100 interfaces. They highlight that this data is 00:10:18.100 --> 00:10:21.379 deeply personal and often collected with few 00:10:21.379 --> 00:10:25.159 limits and vague policies. The senators urged 00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:28.100 the Federal Trade Commission to investigate companies 00:10:28.100 --> 00:10:31.860 like Elon Musk's Neuralink, emphasizing the need 00:10:31.860 --> 00:10:34.899 for stricter regulations on data harvesting that 00:10:34.899 --> 00:10:43.440 impacts our privacy and mental health. In a new 00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:46.600 review, Thunderbolts is seen as a potential lifeline 00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:49.139 for the struggling Marvel Cinematic Universe. 00:10:50.019 --> 00:10:53.419 However, many fans may find it lacks the essential 00:10:53.419 --> 00:10:57.120 viewing quality they crave. The film, directed 00:10:57.120 --> 00:11:00.399 by Jake Schreier, presents a humorous take on 00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:03.159 a group of lesser -known characters, including 00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:07.080 Yulina Belova and Ghost, who are forced to confront 00:11:07.080 --> 00:11:10.419 personal traumas while navigating chaotic missions. 00:11:11.500 --> 00:11:15.559 With a hefty budget of almost $200 million, it 00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:18.320 attempts to blend comedy with serious scenes. 00:11:18.980 --> 00:11:22.120 The film's reliance on humor and a mixed ensemble 00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:25.139 may resonate with audiences, but its overall 00:11:25.139 --> 00:11:30.240 execution leaves much to be desired. Well, alrighty 00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:34.299 folks, it's time for the quote of the day. And 00:11:34.299 --> 00:11:37.220 today, our quote comes from the Chinese philosopher, 00:11:37.620 --> 00:11:43.340 Lo Tzu. And he said, Life is a series of natural 00:11:43.340 --> 00:11:48.019 and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them. That 00:11:48.019 --> 00:11:52.559 only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. 00:11:53.440 --> 00:11:56.740 Let things flow naturally forward in whatever 00:11:56.740 --> 00:12:00.960 way they like. And that's a wrap for this morning. 00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:04.600 You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and 00:12:04.600 --> 00:12:08.240 TikTok for some captivating aerial videos with 00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:12.269 local news and the surf reports.
