**CUPP** is a free Python 3 tool that creates custom password wordlists from personal details like names, birthdays, pet names, or nicknames, using interactive questions or existing dictionaries. Run it with options like `-i` for profiling or `-l` to download huge wordlists. This helps you in legal penetration tests or investigations by generating targeted lists for efficient brute-force or dictionary attacks, cracking weak passwords faster than generic ones.

🔈Most Common Smart Speaker Usage
People are doing plenty of things with voice commands on their #SmartSpeakers, but shopping isn’t really one of them. Only about a quarter to a third of U.S. smart speaker owners have ever purchased something using voice. Very few do so on a regular basis. An Information article this summer said just 2 percent of #Alexa owners had made a purchase via Alexa in 2018.

🗣The State of Chinese Voice Assistants
China is the second-largest consumer market in the world, hitting $4.3T in consumer expenditure in 2016 alone (for reference, the US ranked first with $12.5T, and Japan third with $2.7T).
The Chinese smart home market will reach nearly $23B in 2018, according to Juniper Research. #SmartSpeakers and #AI voice assistants are becoming an integral part of that.
Now that smart speakers are becoming commonplace, the early entrant, #Amazon, is losing its market share — and not just to its rival #Google, but to newer players emerging in China.
