Popkov, nicknamed “The Werewolf” by local media, was arrested in 2012 and sentenced to life in prison for murdering 22 women. Between 1992 and 2007 Popkov preyed on 16- to 40-year-olds, claiming he wanted to purge his hometown of Angarsk of drunk and promiscuous women. Prosecutors said he’d decide to kill victims “as soon as they agreed to share a drink with him.” Sources: [TASS](5c0f8f9d31c46064358e274b:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/23193e7a?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDQ1MjcyMDYsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwZjhmOWY3M2FiNGUzNzJjYTAwYTMzIiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHA6XC9cL3Rhc3MuY29tXC9lbWVyZ2VuY2llc1wvMTAzNTIxMCJ9&jwtS=SzA8aKqCb6_R9tnYe08SmxAzKTieOWIXWjlQSLks2z0), [Newsweek](5c0f8f9d31c46064358e274b:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/f5a7a4e7?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDQ1MjcyMDYsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwZjhmOWY3M2FiNGUzNzJjYTAwYTM0IiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cubmV3c3dlZWsuY29tXC9zZXJpYWwta2lsbGVyLWNvcC1rbm93bi13ZXJld29sZi1jb252aWN0ZWQtNTYtbXVyZGVycy13aGlsZS1hbHJlYWR5LXNlcnZpbmctMTI1MTU4OCJ9&jwtS=wUjXFzURYaKy8EwaPyJP2oWA_RCibba9RCo91RH4uaE) [Facebook](5c0f8f9d31c46064358e274b:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/2378be01?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDQ1MjcyMDYsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwZjhmOWY3M2FiNGUzNzJjYTAwYTM1IiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cuZmFjZWJvb2suY29tXC9zaGFyZXJcL3NoYXJlci5waHA_dT1odHRwczpcL1wvd3d3Lm96eS5jb21cL3ByZXNpZGVudGlhbC1kYWlseS1icmllZlwvcGRiLTkxMTg1XC90cnVlLWNyaW1lLTkxMTk4P3V0bV9zb3VyY2U9cGRiJnV0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPTEyMTEyMDE4JnZhcmlhYmxlPWMzNWI1MDkwMjg5YTAzMGQ1ZjcxNzIzZGI4OWRkMjMzIn0&jwtS=BzBXroQCc1Amf3FYNqbseCO-2AIXWc7u9ee-mluT5Zc) [Twitter](5c0f8f9d31c46064358e274b:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/d4717467?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDQ1MjcyMDYsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwZjhmOWY3M2FiNGUzNzJjYTAwYTM2IiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC90d2l0dGVyLmNvbVwvaW50ZW50XC90d2VldD91cmw9aHR0cHM6XC9cL3d3dy5venkuY29tXC9wcmVzaWRlbnRpYWwtZGFpbHktYnJpZWZcL3BkYi05MTE4NVwvdHJ1ZS1jcmltZS05MTE5OD91dG1fc291cmNlPXBkYiZ1dG1fbWVkaXVtPWVtYWlsJnV0bV9jYW1wYWlnbj0xMjExMjAxOCZ2YXJpYWJsZT1jMzViNTA5MDI4OWEwMzBkNWY3MTcyM2RiODlkZDIzMyJ9&jwtS=dizfPyQ3uGL1mqpHAWKwWrN4j2u13WbCa-z52ukl0lQ) [Your Apps Know Where You've Been](5c0f8f9d31c46064358e274b:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/3c7d90c5?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDQ1MjcyMDYsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwZjhmOWY3M2FiNGUzNzJjYTAwYTM3IiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cub3p5LmNvbVwvcHJlc2lkZW50aWFsLWRhaWx5LWJyaWVmXC9wZGItOTExODU_dXRtX3NvdXJjZT1wZGImdXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fY2FtcGFpZ249MTIxMTIwMTgmdmFyaWFibGU9YzM1YjUwOTAyODlhMDMwZDVmNzE3MjNkYjg5ZGQyMzMjYXJ0aWNsZTkxMjA2In0&jwtS=zIRVgQfLPjysqHWe0CiIwERcBjCGBfacL4AyMocC1bc) At least 75 companies receive surprisingly precise location data from [apps](5c0f8f9d31c46064358e274b:ot:5a0a20039b139bcbda2e9bd6:1/0695cc5e?jwtH=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9&jwtP=eyJpYXQiOjE1NDQ1MjcyMDYsImNkIjoiLmNvcmRpYWwuaW8iLCJjZSI6ODY0MDAsInRrIjoib3p5bGl2ZSIsIm10bElEIjoiNWMwZjhmOWY3M2FiNGUzNzJjYTAwYTM4IiwibGlua1VybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC93d3cub3p5LmNvbVwvbmVlZC10by1rbm93XC9oZXMtc2VydmluZy12aWdpbGFudGUtanVzdGljZS10aHJvdWdoLWFuLWFwcFwvOTAwNTkifQ&jwtS=zN_IIHpwyzr5aWzCJxWx9lJRGkQnOjnVN8PAf_8K9JA) — like the Weather Channel and GasBuddy — and don’t keep the information to themselves, a New York Times investigation shows. Location-targeted advertising is a $21 billion industry, reason enough for companies to track more than 200 million American mobile devices per year. While users’ identities aren’t generally revealed, names could be ascertained from the devices’ locations, which are accurate to within a few yards. All that stands between a marketing company and your data is a vague privacy policy.

In the forest the male túngara reeled back his famous call, a downward whine followed by two or more chucks — which are attractive to female túngara, but also to deadly predators. Urban túngara can choke out many more chucks, which female frogs apparently find irresistible.

Performers such as Cameron Esposito and Hannah Gadsby are moving from self-deprecation to self-realization in recent sets that probe injustices they’ve faced. Gadsby’s Netflix hit Nanette explores issues of harassment and homophobia, while Hari Kondabolu’s special Warn Your Relatives discusses racist stereotypes of South Asians.
