⚡️City of Dallas disrupted by large cyberattack impacting multiple Services.

The 🇺🇸 City of Dallas, in Texas, experienced a large cyberattack that affected many important computer systems. As a result, it became difficult for the city to function properly. For instance, the computer-assisted dispatch system used by 911 dispatchers was not working, so they had to write down reports and give them to officers manually instead of submitting them electronically. To avoid the attack from spreading, the city had to turn off some of its IT systems.

⚡️Police in 🇧🇷 Brazil searched ex-president Jair Bolsonaro‘s home and seized his cell phone Wednesday in an investigation into allegations of falsifying Covid-19 vaccination records, an allegation the far-right vaccine skeptic denied.

Bolsonaro, who faced widespread criticism for his unorthodox handling of the pandemic, denied wrongdoing in comments to journalists after the operation, accusing the authorities of trying to “fabricate a case” against him.

“I repeat: I have not been vaccinated,” he told reporters clustered in the garage of his home in Brasilia.

“There was no falsification on my part,” said Bolsonaro, 68.

“I’m surprised… by the search and seizure operation in an ex-president’s home, trying to fabricate a case.”
