Google Tests Automatic Password-to-Passkey Conversion On Android
Google is rolling out a new feature in Android that automatically converts passwords into passkeys during the login process . This feature is currently available in a limited rollout and was spotted in the latest beta version of Google Play Services (25.19.31). Some users have already reported seeing the option, titled Automatically create a passkey to sign in faster, in their device settings. The goal of this feature is to simplify and encourage the use of passkeys by removing the need for manual setup . When enabled, it allows users to log in to compatible websites and apps using biometric authentication (like fingerprint or facial recognition), a device PIN, or a tap on another trusted device. This makes the login process faster, easier, and more secure. Passkeys are cryptographic credentials tied to a specific device . Unlike traditional passwords, they dont rely on memorized combinations or central storage, which significantly reduces the risk of phishing, credential leaks, and password reuse. Companies like Google, Apple, and Microsoft are actively promoting passkeys as a new standard for secure, passwordless authentication. Androids new feature can create Passkeys automatically (Screenshot: Android Authority ) While Chromes built-in Password Manager already supports automatic passkey creation, this is the first time the feature has been integrated into the Android operating system. Its expansion to mobile devices is expected to help accelerate the transition to passkey-based login systems. Currently, the feature only works on platforms that already support passkeys, but adoption across apps and websites is steadily increasing. For users who prefer traditional methods, the option can be disabled in the settings. Google is also working on additional enhancements, including tools for importing and exporting passkeys, which would allow easier migration between password managers or secure sharing between accounts. A wider release date has not yet been confirmed, as the feature is still being gradually rolled out through server-side updates.

Stray dogs mutilate body awaiting autopsy at Madhya Pradesh hospital
BHOPAL: Stray dogs have exposed security at a government hospital in central Madhya Pradeshs Narmadapuram district. The body of a youth kept in a hall instead of the mortuary, for autopsy, was reportedly mutilated by stray dogs at the Narmadapuram district hospital early on Saturday. A youth identified as Nikhil Chourasia was returning from a marriage along with two friends when they met with a road accident, resulting in Nikhils death late on Friday night. His two friends, Ritik and Rohit, are stated to be critical of the hospital. Nikhils body was subsequently sent by the police for autopsy at the Narmadapuram district hospital. But instead of being kept at the mortuary, it was kept in a hall near one of the wards. Early on Saturday morning, the relatives of the deceased youth found that the body, kept in the hall, was mutilated by stray dogs. A viral video related to the shocking incident showed the throat and jaw of the body badly torn by stray dogs, infuriating the Chourasias kin. We had just gone out from the hospital to get drinking water, but on returning, we found that my cousins body was mutilated by stray dogs. When we raised the matter with the on-duty security and other staff, they misbehaved with us, a relative of the deceased youth is seen alleging in the video. In another video, a female relative of the deceased could be seen narrating the shocking incident outside the hospitals casualty room. The body was kept for autopsy. Are it stray dogs that perform post-mortem on the bodies of poor people? While admitting that the shocking development happened with the body kept for autopsy, the civil surgeon of the district hospital, Dr Sudhir Vijayvargiya, said, What happened is very unfortunate. Weve ordered a probe into the entire incident. A show cause notice will be issued to the on-duty security guard, followed by appropriate action. Well also ensure that no such incident happens in the future.

TN government sits on fare revision, auto rates go through the roof, hit Rs 80 for a km
CHENNAI: Even as the state has been sitting on the proposal to increase auto rickshaw fares for the past six years, the minimum fare has unofficially surged, reaching Rs 80 in North Chennai, Rs 100-Rs 150 in South and Central Chennai. The situation is the same while booking online as drivers demand Rs 20-Rs 30 extra, and commuters end up paying Rs 100-Rs 120 for just 1.2km. Commuters allege that a large chunk of drivers refuse the trip if they are unwilling to pay more than the fare shown on the app. My bike broke down, so I booked an auto from T Nagar to a location near AGS Cinemas, just 1.2km away. The fare showed Rs 130, but the driver insisted on an additional Rs 20. Paying Rs 150 for such a short distance is simply unreasonable, said S Malini Rithish, a resident of T Nagar. In an effort to reduce public transportation costs, the state has not revised bus fares since 2018 and has introduced the Magalir Vidiyal Payanam scheme, which allows women, trans-persons and persons with disabilities to travel for free on ordinary buses. Similarly, suburban and express train fares have remained unchanged for years. Despite these measures, commuting within the city has become increasingly expensive, especially for those who dont use two-wheelers, including the elderly, patients, and other groups. During a recent citywide visit by TNIE, it was observed that in areas such as Thiruvanmiyur, Adyar, RA Puram and nearby localities, auto drivers demanded Rs 100-Rs 150 for trips under 1.5km. In places like Anna Nagar, Mogappair and Egmore, minimum fares were typically around Rs 100. Meanwhile, in Ambattur, Korattur, Kolathur and Perambur, even short trips ranging from 0.8-1.2km cost about Rs 80. However, the situation is worse in T Nagar, with fares reaching Rs 250-Rs 300 for distances of just 2-3km. After 10 pm, charges for trips to hospitals, railway stations,or bus terminals from T Nagar rises to Rs 400-500. The government has abdicated its responsibility in regulating auto fares. Some drivers compare themselves to doctors or lawyers, arguing that if we can pay them premium fees, we should do the same for autos, said S Velan, a resident of Mylapore. When contacted, officials from the transport department and CUMTA said fare revision proposals and supporting studies have been submitted to the government, and they are awaiting orders. The last official fare revision occurred in 2013, setting a base fare of Rs 25 for the first 1.8 km and Rs 12 for every additional km. However, the fares have never been implemented. Industry sources said, as per the transport departments estimation, around two lakh autorickshaws operate within CMDA limits, covering Chennai, Kancheepuram, Tiruvallur and Chengalpattu districts, and parts of Ranipet district. About 40,000 (20%) of these are operated by hired drivers affiliated with autorickshaw drivers unions. Notably, about 80% of drivers either own their vehicles or do not rely solely on driving for their income. Many of these autos are tied to local unions and operate independently of app-based platforms like Ola and Uber. As a result, they do not adhere to government-mandated or aggregator-set fare structures. Only union-affiliated drivers are demanding a fare revision. The rest simply refuse rides to those unwilling to meet their fare demands. Thats why strikes called by unions often go unnoticed. We were also assured to collect only Rs 50 minimum fare for 1.5 km during the fare revision meetings held at the offices of transport commissioner and CUMTA. But only 20% of the drivers are associated with the union, said a union member. A 19-year-old college student recounted, I tried booking a cab from Tiruvalluvar Nagar in Thiruvanmiyur to the MRTS station just 1.2km away, but couldnt find one through Ola or Uber. I had no option but to take a roadside auto, which charged Rs 150. Officials from the transport department and CUMTA said fare regulation wont work unless drivers who follow the official rates receive enough ride requests. We are also working on a licensing system for aggregators so that fares can be regulated. Both aggregator regulation and fare control will be implemented simultaneously. Orders are expected soon, they added.

Revenge for Suhas Shetty's death: Udupi auto driver narrowly escapes murder attempt
UDUPI: In an attempt of retaliation, a 50-year-old auto-rickshaw driver of Badagabettu in Udupi narrowly escaped a murder attempt near Athrady late on May 1. The man who escaped the murder attempt has been identified as Abubakkar. Udupi SP Dr Arun K said that two men on a motorcycle followed the auto rickshaw driver before trying to attack him with a sword and bottle. He said that the investigation conducted so far suggested the assault was an act of revenge for the murder of Suhas Shetty (30), who was hacked to death in Bajpe, Mangaluru, on May 1. Earlier one Dinesh who was known to Abubakkar, made a rental request. Abubakkar then took his auto rickshaw and moved around 11.15 pm on May 1.

According to the complaint given by Abubakkar, the suspects overtook his auto and attempted to stop him, and abused him.

Heavy rain lashes Bengaluru, uprooted tree claims life of auto driver
BENGALURU: The 17.8 mm rainfall that lashed Bengaluru City on Thursday, not only caused roads to get flooded, resulting in slowing down of traffic, but also led to trees being uprooted, one of which fell on an auto-rickshaw, crushing its driver to death. Mahesh (45), an auto driver residing in Ittamadu, Bengaluru South, lost his life when a huge tree uprooted and fell on his vehicle, around 7.30 pm, in CK Achakattu police limits, locals said. He had received a call and had plugged on his earphone, when the tree fell. Immediately, a few of us rushed in and tried to pull him out of the mangled auto. He opened his eyes momentarily, before shutting them again. Officials of the BBMP and BESCOM managed to have the tree lifted from the auto, and shift Mahesh to hospital in an ambulance, said a resident. However, Mahesh did not make it. The deputy conservator of forests, BBMP, said that till 9 pm, 10 tree-fall complaints were received, with most of them being attended to. Regarding the auto drivers death, he said the victim was originally from Mysuru, and details of his family are being sourced. As per norms, ex-gratia will be given to his kin. The Varunamithra application from the Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre, showed that areas like Hampi Nagar, RR Nagar, Nayandahalli, Vidya Peeta, Kengeri, Herohalli, Horamavu, Pulakeshinagar, and Hemmigepura all recorded over 25 mm rainfall, while in places like Cunningham Road, Fayazabad in Yelachanahalli, Jnanabharathi, Gunjur, and others, traffic proceeded at a snails pace. Gulab Pasha, an activist from Yelachanahalli, said, Our request to BBMP to desilt drains here always falls on deaf ears. Last year also, a similar situation prevailed. Incidently, within 48 hours of new Chief Commissioner Maheshwar Rao taking charge, this has happened, and we hope he takes note of it and tells his officers to fix the said issues.
