| The DNC tells Democrats not to buy Huawei or ZTE devices ever Posted: 03 Aug 2018 03:41 PM PDT  The Democratic National Committee is warning Democrats not to use Huawei or ZTE devices, after the committee learned that one of its associated organizations was thinking of purchasing ZTE phones for members. "It's very important that party and campaign workers not use ZTE or Huawei devices, even if the price is low or free," DNC chief security officer Bob Lord wrote in an internal memo, as reported by CNN. Lord said people shouldn't be using devices from either Chinese company for work or personal use. The words echo what federal officials have already said about Huawei and ZTE posing possible security threats to the US. In February, CIA, NSA, and FBI chiefs testified in front of a Senate committee that the two companies were beholden... |
| Google reportedly in talks to bring its Cloud service to China Posted: 03 Aug 2018 02:17 PM PDT  Earlier this week, reports emerged that Google was working on tailoring its search and news apps for China in order to comply with the country's censorship laws. Now, it appears the tech giant is also taking steps to bring its cloud business to the country. According to an unnamed source who spoke to Bloomberg, Google is looking to partner with major Chinese cloud and server providers to deliver services such as Google Drive and Google Docs to the country. The goal, they say, is to run these services through China-based data centers and servers, similar to the way Apple runs its iCloud operations inside the country. Candidates for the partnership were narrowed to three firms this past March — those companies include Tencent and Inspur... |
| DOJ and FCC request Supreme Court vacate 2016 net neutrality ruling Posted: 03 Aug 2018 02:16 PM PDT  The Department of Justice and the Federal Communications Commission today requested that the Supreme Court vacate an appeals court decision upholding net neutrality in 2016. If the court decides to grant the motion, the previous decision to support the rules would be removed, clearing the path for re-litigation in the future when it comes to classifying broadband. In December, the FCC voted to undo the 2015 Open Internet Order which established net neutrality rules by forbidding broadband providers from throttling users' internet speed and blocking legal online content. Months before the Commission voted to roll back the rules last year, telecommunications companies like AT&T were already working the Supreme Court in order to remove the... |
| Larger iPhone X Plus seemingly confirmed by leak in iOS 12 beta Posted: 03 Aug 2018 01:48 PM PDT  It's long been rumored that Apple will release a larger "iPhone X Plus" model this fall, but we may have just gotten our best confirmation yet of the new device: a leaked icon found in Apple's own firmware that seems to shows off the new phone. The image was discovered by notable Apple firmware reverse-engineer Guilherme Rambo, along with another leaked icon for the bezel-less iPad that first leaked through the latest iOS 12 beta earlier this week. Rambo notes that the icons are all early and unfinished, so don't necessarily take them as a definite indication of what the new devices will look like. Additionally, Rambo commented in a later tweet that the iPad icon in question is rendered as a square to be easily adjustable for both... |
| Facebook has started internal testing of its dating app Posted: 03 Aug 2018 01:40 PM PDT  Two months after announcing the product at its F8 developer conference, Facebook is testing its dating product internally with employees. Independent app researcher Jane Manchun Wong, who regularly uncovers new Facebook features by scouring the source code, found evidence of the product Friday and posted it on Twitter. The company confirmed to The Verge that the product is in testing within the Facebook app but declined to comment further. "This product is for US Facebook employees who have opted-in to dogfooding Facebook's new dating product," a screenshot reads, using slang for employees testing out their own software. "The purpose for this dogfooding is to test the end-to-end product experience for bugs and confusing UI. This is not... |
| New York Stock Exchange owner is launching a bitcoin exchange Posted: 03 Aug 2018 01:29 PM PDT  The Intercontinental Exchange, the operator behind the New York Stock Exchange, has announced that it is creating a new company called Bakkt that will hold and manage people's cryptocurrency. The platform will be powered by Microsoft cloud tech and plans to begin with trading and converting bitcoin to US dollars and other fiat (government-backed) currencies as "bitcoin is today the most liquid digital currency." Bakkt represents a significant marker for cryptocurrency. The NYSE and its operator are trusted financial institutions, while cryptocurrency, though it has seen some successes, has been marred by hoaxes and even reports of price manipulation. These problems have been so rampant that in May, the SEC launched a fake initial coin... |
| Scientists put a nuclear waste container through a demanding trip to see if the fuel would break Posted: 03 Aug 2018 12:59 PM PDT  Researchers sent a nuclear waste container on a 14,500-mile odyssey by truck, barge, cargo ship, and train in an effort to understand how well radioactive fuel would stand up to travel. That's important to find out because one day, the goal is to store all the radioactive fuel that's used up and spit out by nuclear power plants in the US at a central, underground repository. There's still a political struggle over where that repository will be, so right now, spent nuclear fuel doesn't move much around the US. It mostly sits in storage at nuclear power plants or sometimes travels between power plants owned by the same company, according to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), the government agency that oversees the nuclear industry. ... |
| Drake’s In My Feelings music video thanks the internet for blowing the song up Posted: 03 Aug 2018 12:06 PM PDT  Before social media, the music industry would take an album, pick some singles, and promote what they thought the hits should be. Those vetted songs would then likely be what you'd hear on radio stations and at the club. In 2018, it doesn't work like that at all: the song of the summer is collectively decided by the fans, meaning that, nowadays, any unassuming tune can take over the airwaves if the internet likes it enough. The current and indisputable domination of Drake's "In My Feelings" was not a planned thing. If it wasn't for an Instagram video where Shiggy, a comedian, danced along to the opening lyrics, nobody would be running around constantly asking, "Keke, do you love me?" That footage created a music sensation that is so big,... |
| FX picked up Annihilation director Alex Garland’s next project for a series Posted: 03 Aug 2018 11:58 AM PDT  Alex Garland, known for high-concept science fiction films Ex Machina and this year's Annihilation, has a new project: Devs, an eight-episode limited series about a computer engineer who begins investigating the company she works for after she suspects that they're responsible for the death of her boyfriend. The series will star Sonoya Mizuno (Ex Machina's silent android Kyoko) as Lily Chan, a software engineer at a "cutting-edge tech company" called Amaya, while Nick Offerman will play Amaya's CEO, who is obsessed with his company's secretive development division. Jin Ha, Zach Grenier, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Cailee Spaeny, and Alison Pill will also star in the show. When he spoke with The Verge earlier this year, Garland noted... |
| A strange phone number creeped into Indian contact lists, and no one knew why Posted: 03 Aug 2018 11:49 AM PDT  Smartphone users in India were demanding answers after people on Twitter posted screenshots of their phones' contact lists with a strange number included in it. Users claimed that they didn't add the contact to their devices, and for much of Friday, no one company or person could explain how it got there in the first place. The contact, 1-800-300-1947, is an old toll-free number for the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), and it's been showing up in contacts lists originating from Android devices. The same number has showed up on iPhones as well, but only if its owner imported those contacts from an Android device before. |
