Friday Squid Blogging: New Tool for Grabbing Squid and other Fragile Sea Creatures
Interesting video of a robot grabber that’s delicate enough to capture squid (and even jellyfish) in the ocean.
As usual, you can also use this squid post to talk about the security stories in the news that I haven’t covered.

We hear a lot about crypto currency mining malware by using people’s devices processing power without asking them first.
As usual the same principle can be used for good to help scientists fight cancer or find causes to some diseases as done by IBM here

The moral question I have here is would it be acceptable to have this kind of software installed secretly on people devices in a way similar to illegal miners do with their software? Or even what would one do when finding exitance of such a software on their devices- remove or not remove it ?
