| President Trump says he approves of Oracle’s bid for TikTok ‘in concept’ Posted: 19 Sep 2020 02:55 PM PDT  Photo by Ethan Miller / Getty Images President Trump says he has approved "in concept" Oracle's bid for TikTok, less than a day before a de facto ban he threatened in August was set to go into effect. "I have given the deal my blessing," Trump said to reporters outside the White House Saturday as he departed for a rally in North Carolina. "I approved the deal in concept." On Friday, the Commerce Department issued an order to block transactions with both TikTok parent company ByteDance and WeChat, effective September 20th. The order is set to go into effect on November 12th for TikTok, effectively halting the app's operations. The details of the deal are still in flux, but the new company, called TikTok Global, would be based in the US and take over processing and storage... |
| TikTok files last-minute lawsuit against Trump administration to stave off looming ban Posted: 19 Sep 2020 02:31 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge TikTok and parent company ByteDance filed a lawsuit late Friday against the Trump administration to try to fend off a ban on new downloads of the app set to take effect Sunday, The Wall Street Journal reported. TikTok says in the lawsuit that the Trump administration's decision to ban new downloads of the app, announced Friday, violates free speech protections. The administration, which includes the Commerce Department, "took this extraordinary action of prohibiting a popular communication and information-sharing platform without affording its owners … due process of law, and for political reasons rather than because of any 'unusual and extraordinary threat' to the United States," according to the suit. It's not the first time TikTok... |
| Turing Award winners endorse Biden, say Trump immigration policy will stifle tech research Posted: 19 Sep 2020 01:50 PM PDT  Twenty-four winners of the Turing Award are endorsing former Vice President Joe Biden in the upcoming presidential election, The New York Times reported, explaining they're concerned the Trump administration's immigration policies could be detrimental to both computer research and the technology industry over the long term. "The most brilliant people in the world want to come here and be grad students, but now they are being discouraged from coming here, and many are going elsewhere," David Patterson, a Google distinguished engineer and former professor at the University of California, Berkeley told the Times. Among the names on the endorsement are Vint Cerf, who co-designed TCP/IP protocols and the architecture of the internet; Martin... |
| WeChat and TikTok see US downloads climb ahead of Trump administration ban Posted: 19 Sep 2020 11:33 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Messaging app WeChat had its biggest one-day download numbers in nearly two years on Friday, ahead of a ban on new downloads from the US Commerce Department expected to take effect tomorrow. Preliminary data from analytics platform Sensor Tower showed Chinese-based WeChat had 10,000 installs in the US Friday, a 150 percent increase from Thursday and a 233 percent week-over-week increase. That's the largest number of WeChat installs in the US in one day since October 7th, 2019. Video platform TikTok, also facing a US ban, saw its downloads increase Friday as well, adding 247,000 new installs for a 12 percent increase from Thursday, according to Sensor Tower. TikTok's parent company, Beijing-based ByteDance, has been in talks with US... |
| Sony apologizes for PS5 preorders mess, promises more stock over ‘next few days’ Posted: 19 Sep 2020 10:22 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Sony has apologized for PS5 preorders being a bit of a mess. "Let's be honest: PS5 preorders could have been a lot smoother," says Sony from the official PlayStation Twitter account. "We truly apologize for that." Preorders for the new PS5 console began on Wednesday, a day earlier than Sony had said retailers would take orders. It led to a scramble as Walmart and others started randomly opening up their PS5 preorder slots. Some preorders even disappeared after around a minute. Sony now says it will release more PS5 consoles for preorder "over the next few days," promising that retailers will share more details. It's not clear if these preorders will be delivered on launch day, and Sony is also promising "more PS5s will be available... |
| Epic says Apple ‘cherry picked’ info about Fortnite’s popularity in new filing Posted: 19 Sep 2020 09:53 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge In the ongoing Epic Games vs. Apple saga, Epic says in a new legal filing that Apple made incorrect statements in its own legal filing earlier this week, asserting that Apple "cherry picked" Google search results about the popularity of Epic's Fortnite game. Apple had suggested that Epic started the legal fight over Fortnite in the App Store as a publicity stunt, and that Fortnite had already started to decline in popularity:

| Judge throws out defamation case against Tesla by former employee Posted: 19 Sep 2020 07:57 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge A judge in Nevada has dismissed a defamation case by a former Tesla employee, who claimed the company spread a false rumor about him after he admitted leaking internal company information to a reporter in 2018. Tesla argues in court documents that former employee Martin Tripp violated trade secrets and computer crimes laws when he told a Business Insider reporter that Tesla was wasting a significant amount of raw materials during production of its Model 3. Tesla identified Tripp as the source of the leaked information, which Tripp later confirmed. He was fired, and Tesla filed a lawsuit claiming he had "unlawfully hacked the company's confidential and trade secret information." Tesla CEO Elon Musk emailed Tesla staff telling them an... |
| Why it’s important to look for the limitations in coronavirus studies Posted: 19 Sep 2020 07:00 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro This week, I got to talk about vaccines and vaccine information with Natalie Dean, and The Verge's Nicole Wetsman and Nilay Patel on The Vergecast. It was a great conversation with Dean, who is an assistant professor of biostatistics at the University of Florida and an expert in infectious disease epidemiology who has worked on designing vaccine trials. After the podcast, I got to ask something that had been on my mind: how did she — a person who works with scientific data every day — feel about the flood of early versions of scientific studies being posted online? And how much attention should the general public be paying to them? Before we get to her answer, let's take a quick step back to talk about what these early studies are.... |
| Six people indicted in Amazon Marketplace bribery scheme to help third-party sellers Posted: 19 Sep 2020 06:35 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Six people have been indicted by a grand jury in Washington state on charges they bribed Amazon employees to manipulate third-party seller listings on the e-commerce site, including listings for defective or dangerous products, authorities said. Starting in 2017, the people, including two former Amazon employees, paid more than $100,000 to have listings of products and accounts that Amazon had blocked or suspended from its Marketplace, which allows third-party sellers to promote and sell their products, the Department of Justice said. The former employees also provided internal Amazon information that allowed attacks on other third-party sellers and their accounts, including flooding the sellers' product listings with fake negative... |
| First PS5 photos show just how big Sony’s next-gen console truly is Posted: 19 Sep 2020 04:52 AM PDT  Sony's upcoming PS5 hardware has appeared at Taiwan's National Communications Commission (NCC), providing us with the first close up photos of the next-gen console. The NCC has published a variety of images (PDF), showing the standard PS5 laying horizontally, the included cables, and the removable base that holds the console in both vertical and horizontal positions. The photos also show just how big the PS5 truly is. We learned earlier this week that the PS5 is the biggest game console in modern history, even topping the Xbox One VCR-like shape and Sony's own PS3. Sony released official dimensions during its PS5 event this week, but they don't include the "largest projection" or the optional base measurements. |
