| MoviePass is now forcing former users to opt out of new plan or risk being charged Posted: 28 Sep 2018 04:27 PM PDT  The latest attempt from struggling theater subscription service MoviePass to retain its dwindling user base comes in the form of yet another change to its monthly plan. This time, however, the company is automatically enrolling lapsed former subscribers into its service, saying its choosing those users to be part of a "select test group" to try a version of MoviePass similar to its original one-movie-per-day plan. In an email sent to select MoviePass customers who decided not to opt into the company's revised three-movie monthly plan, first unveiled last month, the company says it's decided to enroll those people into a new subscription because "we really hope you begin enjoying your MoviePass subscription." If they don't want to be... |
| This Pulp Fiction-Brett Kavanaugh mashup is a perfect end to a horrible week Posted: 28 Sep 2018 03:57 PM PDT  I don't know about you, but for me, this week was bad. It was really bad! Truly, there's nothing quite like working on the internet, covering internet news, all while the internet insists on reminding you, every single minute of your day, just how enthusiastic the people running your country are about putting sexual abusers in power. Boy, is it bad! Ironically, this miserable fact is also how the best memes are born. The highest-quality memers online today — much like offline traditional comedians — do two things exceptionally well:

| California just became the first state with an Internet of Things cybersecurity law Posted: 28 Sep 2018 03:07 PM PDT  California Governor Jerry Brown has signed a cybersecurity law covering "smart" devices, making California the first state with such a law. The bill, SB-327, was introduced last year and passed the state senate in late August. Starting on January 1st, 2020, any manufacturer of a device that connects "directly or indirectly" to the internet must equip it with "reasonable" security features, designed to prevent unauthorized access, modification, or information disclosure. If it can be accessed outside a local area network with a password, it needs to either come with a unique password for each device, or force users to set their own password the first time they connect. That means no more generic default credentials for a hacker to guess. T... |
| Facebook faces class-action lawsuit over massive new hack Posted: 28 Sep 2018 03:06 PM PDT  Facebook is already facing immense fallout from revelations this morning that a hacker exploited a security flaw in a popular feature of the social network to steal account credentials of as many as 50 million users. The company is now facing a class-action complaint filed on behalf of one California resident, Carla Echavarria, and one Virginia resident, Derick Walker. Both allege that Facebook's lack of proper security has exposed them and additional potential class members to a significantly increased chance of identity theft as a result of the breach. The lawsuit was filed today in US District Court for the Northern District of California. The complaint alleges Facebook is guilty of unlawful business practices, deceit by concealment,... |
| Elon Musk reportedly asks Tesla employees to test full self-driving version of Autopilot Posted: 28 Sep 2018 02:54 PM PDT  The version of Autopilot that Elon Musk has long promised would make Tesla cars capable of driving themselves is reportedly being handed over to a small group of employees for testing, according to an internal email obtained by Bloomberg. In the email, Musk promised there were about 100 spots available in the testing program, and that he would take volunteers on a "first come, first served basis." Willing employees have to agree to sharing "300 to 400 hours of driving feedback with the company's Autopilot team by the end of next year," according to Bloomberg. Musk is apparently offering a sizable kickback, though — workers who sign up won't have to pay for the supposedly fully self-driving version of Autopilot, or for a premium... |
| Facebook reportedly avoids US government wiretap of Messenger voice calls Posted: 28 Sep 2018 02:34 PM PDT  A US District Court judge in California has ruled in favor of Facebook, denying a joint federal and state task force that tried to force the social networking company to wiretap Messenger voice calls by holding the company in contempt of court, according to a report from Reuters. The case first came up last month, when the Department of Justice was reportedly looking to hold Facebook in contempt of court for refusing to comply with a wiretapping request for an ongoing investigation into the MS-13 gang. Because Messenger calls are conducted over a cellular data connection or Wi-Fi, they are not subject to the same wiretap laws as standard phone calls, which law enforcement can gain access to with a proper warrant. |
| Bang & Olufsen made a Brown Bear speaker inspired by a Line Friends character Posted: 28 Sep 2018 01:35 PM PDT  Last month, Line announced it was partnering with DJI to create a Brown Bear-themed drone, and now it's teamed up with Bang & Olufsen for a Brown-Bear themed speaker, as reported by TechCrunch. Line is a chat app that's hugely popular in several Asian regions, with tens of thousands of sticker sets, many of which feature original characters. These characters have become so popular that there's a Line Friends merchandise line sold in 108 countries, and a flagship store for the merch is in New York's Times Square. Brown Bear is a stoic-faced bear that's one of Line Friends' more popular original characters. The speaker is essentially the Beoplay P2 with some cosmetic changes. A Bluetooth speaker,... |
| Red delays Hydrogen One phone again, pledges to give buyers a free aluminum version Posted: 28 Sep 2018 01:33 PM PDT  There are more problems for camera maker Red's first smartphone, the Hydrogen One. Company founder Jim Jannard posted today that the titanium version of the phone is delayed. The aluminum version still appears to be on track for an October release date. Jannard blames supply chain issues for the delay and the fact that the company's outside manufacturers weren't able to create enough devices to cover all the preorders. In the meantime, he writes that all titanium customers will receive an aluminum Hydrogen One at launch. Once the titanium is available, they'll receive it, too, and can keep that first phone. This is nice, granted we have no idea how long it'll take to receive that titanium phone. The device has been delayed multiple... |
| The new Kobo looks a lot like a Kindle Oasis Posted: 28 Sep 2018 01:30 PM PDT  In an extremely random case of product leaking, Kobo's Spanish Twitter account briefly tweeted, then deleted, an image of its upcoming Forma e-reader. The screenshot above shows a rendered image of the device, along with its release date of October 16th. Though it looks a lot like the one-handed design of the Kindle Oasis, there's no word yet on its water resistance. Although the Kobo Aura One came out with a waterproof e-reader way before Amazon in 2016, the more recent Kobo Clara HD curiously isn't waterproof. We also know from a recent FCC filing spotted by The Digital Reader, that the Forma will have Wi-Fi but not Bluetooth — one of the standout features of the Kindle Oasis, which allows for it... |
| Amazon 4-star is a dream store for last-minute gift givers Posted: 28 Sep 2018 11:36 AM PDT  Yesterday Amazon opened up another retail location in New York City. But this one, the company's third in Manhattan, is different than the standard Amazon Books store. It's called Amazon 4-star, and the name gives away the store's premise: Amazon 4-star stocks items that have an average customer review rating of four stars and above. There are also sections for new / trending and top sellers, where featured products don't necessarily have to meet the four-star bar. The store's selection will be changed out and refreshed on a frequent basis — in some cases weekly, according to one employee I spoke to — but there are mainstays (like Amazon's own hardware products) that will obviously be a permanent staple of the store. |
