It’s not making as many headlines as a month ago, but the WannaCry worm is still crawling through the internet.Just this week, automaker Honda (HMC) said the ransomware virus infected computers at one of its plants in Japan, disrupting vehicle production.About 1,000 units were not produced as planned at the Sayama factory near Tokyo when WannaCry attacked ”several older production line computers” on Monday, causing them to shut down, a spokesperson for Honda told CNNTech.Honda said production returned to normal Tuesday and it has taken precautions to prevent future infections. But the events are a stark reminder that the ransomware worm that wreaked havoc around the world last month is still a threat to some computers.

Enligt Resumés uppgifter rör det sig om ett digitalt samarbete där Dagens Nyheters prenumeranter erbjuds förmånliga priser för att uppgradera sin prenumeration till att även inkludera New York Times premiummaterial.Under onsdagskvällen uppmärksammades erbjudandet på sociala medier varpå Dagens Nyheters chefredaktör Peter Wolodarski bekräftade att det rör sig om ett samarbete. Dagens Nyheter vill inte kommentera uppgifterna men enligt Resumés källor rör det sig om en initial testperiod som i framtiden kommer att permanenteras. New York Times-prenumerationerna kommer att erbjudas till de som antingen är redo att betala en högre prenumerationskostnad eller binda upp sig under en längre tid. Det är i dagsläget oklart hur många prenumeranter som erbjuds New York Times-prenumerationen under testperioden.Tidigare rapporter har skvallrat om att New York Times ser över tillväxtmöjligheterna i Norden, ett steg som Axel Springer genom Business Insider Nordic redan tagit. Även Huffington Post har sett över möjligheterna att etablera sig på den nordiska marknaden.I februari 2016 öppnade New York Times även upp en spansk upplaga.
