SimpliSafe’s new $99 smart lock automatically bolts when you arm your alarm

Posted: 20 Aug 2019 05:51 PM PDT

We've called SimpliSafe the best home security system you can install yourself — and while there's a reported vulnerability we now need to test, I'm pretty sure existing owners will want to hear about the company's latest product: the SimpliSafe Smart Lock.

It's coming September 15th for $99, and it's designed to work pretty closely with SimpliSafe's latest alarm system — to the point it can automatically lock the door when you arm your alarm, or even stop it from locking when your door's open if that door has a contact sensor. That way, you don't accidentally smash a beefy deadbolt into your doorframe.

Mind you, some rival alarm systems like Amazon's Ring Alarm and Google's Nest Secure already let you arm and disarm...

YouTube bans robot fighting videos for animal cruelty roughly 10 years too soon

We all knew it would happen someday. Google, which believes in AI so much it rebranded its Google Research division as Google AI, has begun to side with the robots. On Monday, it was reported that Google's YouTube took down videos of robots fighting each other (think: BattleBots), saying they violated policies against showing displays of animal cruelty.

Here's one of the videos that had been determined to show animal cruelty:

This video was posted by Jamison Go, who competed in the last season of BattleBots. Yesterday, he says he received the following takedown notice from YouTube for that video and eight others:

According to the YouTube channel Maker's Muse, Sarah Pohorecky, who also competed in the last season of...

The OnePlus TV is coming in September, but maybe not to you

Posted: 20 Aug 2019 04:23 PM PDT

The OnePlus TV is coming next month, founder Pete Lau revealed today — just one year after the phonemaker first announced it would build a TV set.

While Lau's blog post doesn't confirm any juicy technical details, such as whether they'll run Android TV and range between 43 and 75 inches diagonally — as filings with the Bluetooth SIG revealed earlier this month — he does say the TV will first be available exclusively in India, and it sure sounds like it could take some time to hit other parts of the world.

"We are also working hard to launch OnePlus TV in North America, Europe and China regions as soon as we establish partnerships with most of local and regional content providers," he writes.

Based on previous filings, the OnePlus TV for...

MoviePass, the theater subscription service still inexplicably trying to stay in business, left thousands of customers' credit card numbers and other sensitive pieces of data exposed for anyone to find on an online database, according to a report from TechCrunch. A cybersecurity expert named Mossab Hussain, from a Dubai-based firm named SpiderSilk, discovered the unprotected server and shared sample data sets with TechCrunch to confirm that MoviePass was in fact leaving the data unencrypted and accessible to anyone.

According to TechCrunch, the data includes both MoviePass debit card numbers and the actual personal credit card details of customers, including credit card numbers, expiration dates, billing addresses, and names. TechCrunch...

The Twitter Emoji Mashup Bot is now available as free iMessage stickers

Posted: 20 Aug 2019 02:52 PM PDT

One of Twitter's best accounts, the Emoji Mashup Bot — which smushes together two or three random emojis to generate a hybrid emoji every hour — has just released a free iMessage sticker pack. Although the bot, created by 18-year-old student Louan Bengmah, has created countless combinations since it was created in July, the iMessage sticker pack is limited to a select choice of 29 very good emoji.

Here's one for when you're crying in the club:

One to use when you're blasting Old Town Road in the car on your way to the Area 51 raid:

Sony pulls Spider-Man out of the MCU over profit-sharing dispute with Disney

Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has pulled out of producing future Spider-Man movies, due to disputes between Sony — which still holds the rights to the character — and Marvel's parent company Disney over revenue sharing from films starring the web-slinging hero, according to a report from Deadline.

The news means that Spider-Man's appearances in Disney's Marvel Cinematic Universe films — as well as crossovers from characters like Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man or Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury in future Spider-Man films — could end with Spider-Man: Far From Home, released earlier this summer.

According to Deadline's sources, the issue is money: Disney reportedly asked that future Spider-Man films be 50...

YouTube will reportedly halt targeted ads for videos that appeal to kids

YouTube is "finalizing plans" to end targeted advertising on its main site for uploaded videos that children are likely to watch, according to a new report from Bloomberg. The move could be meant to appease regulators at the Federal Trade Commission who have examined whether YouTube has violated the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) through data collection and a failure to protect young users on the platform.

A study by Pew Research has found that videos featuring children under 13 receive on average three times as many views as other videos.

In July, it was reported that the FTC reached a settlement with Google over the matter, with YouTube's parent company expected to pay a "multimillion-dollar fine." But the exact...

Malfunctioning Tesla solar panels started fires at "no fewer than" seven Walmart stores, resulting in hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage, the retail giant alleges in a new lawsuit filed in New York State Supreme Court Tuesday. The lawsuit was first reported by Bloomberg.

Walmart alleges that "years of gross negligence" and "failure to live up to industry standards by Tesla" sparked the blazes and led at least seven locations to close temporarily over the last seven years. Representatives for Tesla did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Tesla has installed solar panels at more than 240 Walmart locations,...

Warner Bros. has just announced a fourth film in the Matrix series, with original stars Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss set to reprise their iconic roles as Neo and Trinity, respectively. Lana Wachowski is set to write and direct the sequel.

The news comes after rumors earlier this year from John Wick: Chapter 3 director Chad Stahelski that the Wachowski sisters were working on a new installment in the franchise. But rumors about a new Matrix film have been swirling practically since the third installment — The Matrix Revolutions — was released in 2003.

That said, it appears that only Lana Wachowski is returning for the upcoming film, with her sister Lilly (who co-directed and co-wrote the original three films)...

23 Texas towns hit by coordinated ransomware attack

More US towns have been hit by ransomware. Last Friday, 23 small Texas towns were affected by a coordinated ransomware attack that appears to have been pulled off by "one single threat actor," according to the Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR). A Texas DIR spokesperson told The New York Times that the majority of the targets were specific departments in the towns. In a statement to Gizmodo, the Texas DIR declined to specify which towns or departments, saying it did not want to make the "impacted entities" a target for other bad actors.

It's not clear how these towns are dealing with the issue, but it doesn't seem like they're just paying up to make the problem go away. A DIR spokesperson told NPR that he was "not aware" of...
