Poland has charged two Turkish nationals arrested in Germany with sabotage, after authorities say the pair set fire to a Starlink communications station with ties to Russian intelligence operations.

The alleged scheme underscores how state-sponsored actors are increasingly targeting Western military installations on allied soil.

And on a quieter note from the developer community, a browser-based tool called Voyager Earth is drawing early attention for rendering animated travel route maps entirely within the browser, no server processing required. It's a small but elegant demonstration of how much computational work modern browsers can now carry without any backend infrastructure at all.

Keep surfing. Tech Beat out.
