TechNews.tw (科技新報) is a well-established Taiwanese news outlet covering technology, semiconductors, and science. The domain has been active since 2012, and the site openly lists its publisher (TechNews Inc.) with a Taiwan address and contact email. For a news site, that level of transparency is a strong point.
Where the site falls a bit short is on the technical side. It still permits older, vulnerable versions of TLS (the encryption that protects your connection), and it doesn't set the browser safety headers that prevent common attacks like clickjacking. If you're just browsing articles, that's a minor issue. But the site offers a VIP membership section, so if you create an account, you're trusting your password and any personal data you provide. The hidden page elements (31 items flagged) could be normal menu popups, but they also deserve a second look.
Longtime readers will find TechNews reliable for news. For anyone considering a paid membership, it's worth noting that the security setup isn't up to modern standards. There's no evidence of scams or malware, but the site could do more to protect user data.
