Incogni

There’s a lot of information about you out there on the web. From dating app data to health information, things that you likely don’t want others to know about are inevitably floating about online. Many because you’ve “opted in” due to tapping “Agree” after an a lengthy boring legal disclaimer on an app, others from companies gathering publicly available government data and compiling it in one spot. A sane person might be tempted to go about deleting all of this data. They would, however, find that the task is quite difficult. That’s why you should consider using Incogni, which not only does the heavy lifting for you, but is also 50% off right now. A typical monthly rate for the Incogni service is $12.98 per month, but now you can get it at a rate of $6.49 per month if you buy a full year of the service. That’s brings a year of scrubbing your name off the net to $78, from $156, if you tap the button below.

Why you should try Incogni — Limit, Lower, Prevent

As a service, Incogni works on your behalf to limit overall information about you online. Incogni takes a three-pronged approach to increasing your online privacy: Limiting access to your information, lowering identity theft risk, and preventing your data from being sold. Here’s how each prong works.

Limit: Public records sites, arrest records sites, voter records sites and more all have access to your information and anybody that uses their service can access it. These sites have opt-out options. In other words, you can go and ask for them to remove your records and they will. (Incogni actually has guides up for anyone that wants to do this themselves, free of charge, for the 80 or so most notorious sites.) But, there are countless data broker sites — many of whom are private entities — and the time is not on your side. A professional, experienced team that does this day in and day out can opt out for you faster.

Lower: With less of your records online, it becomes harder to steal your identity. As Incogni takes your phone number off online lists, for example, you should expect to get less robo calls over time.

Prevent: One of the worst parts of these consistent invasions of our privacy is that these companies can actually profit off of it. They’re selling your records and your info and you don’t get a dime! By having your records rightfully removed from these sites, you also gain more personal control over your life’s data.

So, to begin your journey with Incogni and get control of your data back for yourself, tap the button below. Remember, at this time you can purchase a year of membership for half the usual price. It’s a savings of $78, bring the price from $156 to $78 for a full year, equivalent to just $6.49 per month. Want more privacy? Be sure to check out the best VPNs for more private browsing.

I found five desk organization gadgets I’d happily recommend for Back-to-School
Because a cluttered desk is not the productivity aesthetic you think it is.
Computer, Electronics, Laptop

I have seen my desk go from a pristine, organized workplace to something out of a horror movie within a week. One day it's just your laptop and a coffee mug, and a month later it's a scrapyard of tangled cables, chargers, books, and the one key that's been missing since move-in day. If your setup has slowly turned into that mess, this list is for you.

I picked five products that fix different pieces of the same problem: not enough charging, not enough storage, and not enough ways actually to keep track of the stuff you need. None of these will magically make you a tidy person, but they'll take away most of your excuses.

The ThinkCentre X is finally heading to the US with up to 256GB RAM, dual RTX 5060 Ti GPUs, and a price tag that rivals a used car.
Lenovo ThinkCentre X workstation with monitor

If the phrase "future-proof desktop" means never worrying about running out of RAM again, Lenovo may have just built the ultimate machine. The company is preparing to launch its new ThinkCentre X workstation desktop in the US after making it available in several international markets. Built for AI workloads, professional content creation, and demanding enterprise applications, the desktop can be configured with up to 256GB of DDR5 memory, Intel's latest Core Ultra 9 processor, and support for dual GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB GPUs.

A metallic Hall effect keyboard and a 59g mouse are Lenovo’s latest upgrades for snazzy gaming setups
The Legion R7 RT75 keyboard and Y7MG mouse bring 8K polling to both sides of your gaming setup
Computer, Computer Hardware, Computer Keyboard

Magnetic gaming keyboards and lightweight mice are hardly unusual anymore, but Lenovo is trying to push both ideas a little further with its latest Legion peripherals. The new lineup includes the Legion R7 RT75 keyboard and Legion Y7MG mouse, and both support an 8,000Hz polling rate for players who want every input delivered to their PC as quickly as possible.

Of course, Lenovo has styled these peripherals to be as bold and eye-catching as possible without getting in the way of practicality. The keyboard has a hefty metallic design with translucent keycaps and RGB lighting. Compared to that, the mouse is more tame and traditional in design, but it also has an RGB strip that appears to belong on an alien spaceship. (via NotebookCheck)
