Tech Weekly: Google Earthquake Alerts, Apple AI Rules, and WhatsApp Scams

Google is expanding its earthquake alert system to more than 200 countries, providing Android users with critical seconds of warning before tremors occur.

In the mobile ecosystem, Apple is tightening App Store regulations to target applications that use AI to generate non-consensual intimate imagery. Developers violating these rules face app removal and potential account termination.

Security concerns have also risen following the discovery of a fraudulent WhatsApp application on Google Play. The malicious app has surpassed 500,000 downloads and has appeared within sponsored search results. This follows a previous incident involving a fake Chrome browser imitation that reached 100,000 downloads.
