Business
The 2024 Tesla Model 3 has some of the most advanced navigation, autonomous driving, and safety features currently on the market, meaning it’s full of equipment that can record and track your surroundings—and you. How much data does Tesla collect? Where is it stored? And can you trust them to protect your sensitive information? WIRED decided to investigate. This is Incognito Mode.

Culture
Scammers operate everywhere—job recruitment sites, across social media, on dating apps and in your text messages. Arguably the most hurtful and damaging of these scams is romance scams, where the perpetrator spends weeks or months seducing a victim and earning their trust before conning them out of as much money as they can get. While people are getting better at spotting these scams, scammers are constantly advancing, too. So what's it really like when you fall for one? WIRED Senior Editor, Security & Investigations Andrew Couts goes in depth with a real victim of a romance scam and shows us what warning signs to look out for.
