Faro Airport records 'greatest pressure' in biometric data collection

Correio da Manhã13 September 2026 at 07:31

Since September, Portuguese airports have been implementing mandatory biometric data collection. Faro Airport is experiencing the greatest pressure in this data collection. This situation occurs in the context of the implementation of this new mandatory system at airports in Portugal.

Why this matters

Readers in the Algarve region are directly affected by this increased pressure on biometric collection, which may result in longer wait times at security and immigration controls. This measure is part of a broader technological update at Portuguese airports, following European security regulations.

AI Leaders Admit to Slowing Down More Advanced Models

Leaders of the largest artificial intelligence companies admit the need to slow down the development of the most advanced models given the growing security risks. Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, proposed external evaluations with access similar to that of internal teams, a measure supported by Sam Altman and Elon Musk, clarifying that the proposal does not imply suspending model training, but creating time to test and protect the technology. Demis Hassabis, from Google DeepMind, considered the guidance correct, although he argues that the details still need to be defined. Any eventual coordination faces competitive and geopolitical obstacles, given that American companies compete for customers and market share among themselves and with Chinese groups, and it remains uncertain whether competition authorities would accept a coordinated slowdown.

Clucky is an app for people who need to "rise with the chickens" and has challenges to get them out of bed

The Clucky app was created for people who have difficulty waking up in the morning, offering an alternative to traditional alarm clocks that are often turned off and lead to going back to sleep. The app works through challenges and missions that the user needs to complete before being able to silence the morning alarm, thus encouraging a more active and conscious wake-up routine.

How Does Wi-Fi Go Through Walls? And Why Do Some Walls Destroy It?

Wi-Fi doesn't go through walls without consequences: the signal loses energy, is absorbed, reflected and deflected by the materials it encounters. Materials like concrete, brick, metal and even water absorb or block most of the signal, while plaster, wood and glass let it pass with less loss. The signal frequency also influences things: higher frequencies (like 5 GHz) offer more speed but attenuate more quickly through obstacles, while lower frequencies (2.4 GHz) penetrate better but with less bandwidth.
