A winning project from an NPR hackathon called "Open Mind" is a browser extension designed to track a user's browsing history and alert them to political bias. The tool provides a dashboard for users to monitor their "news nutrition" and suggests reputable outlets from the opposing political side. Critics compare the technology to NSA-style tracking and warn of its potential for social engineering.

An AT&T executive discussed a recent hackathon in Las Vegas where a winning team developed mood-sensing technology integrated into cat ears. The device allegedly determines a user's mood to manage phone calls, effectively acting as a "call management platform" or advanced voicemail. The presentation is mocked for using buzzwords like "life spaces" and "mobility" to describe basic telecommunications functions.
