Ransomware that "lives off the land" and uses Bitlocker

The gallop towards #enshittification as propounded by @pluralistic continues unabated. This time with Duolingo. I've been using the app for years. In fact almost straight for the past 180 days. Then their recent update removed the clear, well articulated speech & replaced it with what seems to be AI generated, barely comprehensible, low quality speech that effectively makes the app (now shapp/shit app) pretty much unusable.
If you're a Duolingo user or just a lover of language in general & if you've noticed this please file regular reports about the sound quality & add a comment. Become ungovernable.

By me at Forbes, the latest iOS update (16.5) includes fixes for three zero-days impacting most all iPhone and iPad users.
