| Even LinkedIn is making a Clubhouse clone Posted: 30 Mar 2021 05:35 PM PDT  It feels like just about every big tech company is working on a Clubhouse-like social audio feature — Twitter's Spaces feature is rolling out now, Facebook is reportedly building one, Spotify is making one, Mark Cuban has one, even Slack is getting in the game. But now, the idea of the shared audio space, which started on Clubhouse largely as an exclusive club for tech venture capitalists and elites, has come full circle. Professional social network LinkedIn is working on an audio networking feature of its own, the company confirmed to TechCrunch. "We're doing some early tests to create a unique audio experience connected to your professional identity," LinkedIn said in a statement to TechCrunch. "And, we're looking at how we can bring... |
| Apple supplier Foxconn warns that component shortages will last until 2022 Posted: 30 Mar 2021 04:56 PM PDT  The ongoing global shortage for electronic components continues, and Foxconn — which handles manufacturing for Apple, among other major tech heavyweights — has announced that it's starting to see the impact of shortages. According to Young Liu, Foxconn's CEO, the company won't be able to fulfill some of its orders due to those shortages, which he expects will last until at least the second quarter of next year, Nikkei reports. "The [supply in the] first two months of this quarter was still ok, as our clients are all very big, but we started to see changes happening this month," Liu reportedly told investors during the company's latest earnings call. The impact of the shortages isn't expected to be large, at least for now: Liu expects... |
| Snapchat’s Spectacles might become true AR glasses this time — and there’s a drone Posted: 30 Mar 2021 04:53 PM PDT  Snap, the company behind Snapchat, is planning to continue its push into hardware devices with a new pair of augmented-reality glasses and a drone, according to a report by The Information. The Spectacles will reportedly include displays so the wearer can see the AR effects without having to use their phone — a feature that was notably missing from the all the Spectacles that came before. One of The Information's sources says that the new Spectacles will be meant for developers and creators, rather than consumers — though you could probably argue that, at $380, the Spectacles 3 are already mostly limited to that market as well. As the article points out, though, the intention is likely to have the developers make lenses and experiences... |
| Gocycle’s folding G4 e-bikes promise more power and less noise Posted: 30 Mar 2021 04:01 PM PDT  Gocycle, the maker of some of the most eye-catching and adaptable electric bikes on the planet, is back with its fourth-generation e-bike. The G4 series brings a new motor, better tires, lighter carbon-fiber components, and more to improve upon what's already one of our favorite e-bikes. But before you get too excited, know that the G4 range starts at a suggested retail price of $3,999. The G4, G4i, and G4i Plus models are all available for preorder now. For the money, Gocycle makes a very premium e-bike that we've found to be equally suited to long commutes and multimodal travel due to its compact quick-fold design with wide high-volume tires. That tradition continues with the G4 models. The new motor is probably my favorite change and... |
| YouTube has removed Steven Crowder from its Partner Program indefinitely Posted: 30 Mar 2021 03:42 PM PDT  Two weeks ago, after YouTube revealed its definition of hate speech was so narrow that it couldn't remove a wildly racist tirade for being wildly racist, we wondered out loud what it would take for YouTube to stop promoting conservative commentator Steven Crowder as an official YouTube Partner and allowing him to profit from those tirades. Today, we have a partial answer: YouTube has officially suspended Steven Crowder's main channel from the YouTube Partner Program indefinitely, which includes removing his ability to run ads. It's also banning him from uploading videos for a full week after his latest infraction: a now-removed video that reportedly challenged the legitimacy of the vote in Nevada. YouTube has a policy against false... |
| YouTube is experimenting with hiding dislikes to protect creators’ well-being Posted: 30 Mar 2021 02:59 PM PDT  YouTube has announced it's experimenting with hiding dislikes to discourage "dislike mobs" from deliberately downvoting videos from creators and channels. The experiment is a different implementation than the solutions the company had previously discussed, but it is similar to other attempts platforms like Instagram have taken to nip targeted attacks in the bud. In the current setup, stats for both likes and dislikes are viewable in a creator's individual YouTube Studio page, but only likes will be displayed publicly on a video. In a support article explaining the test, YouTube says that dislikes can negatively impact a creator's well-being and "may motivate a targeted campaign of dislikes on a creator's video." Basically, the idea is... |
| The FTC is letting Qualcomm off the hook with a tortured statement Posted: 30 Mar 2021 02:35 PM PDT  Four years after accusing Qualcomm of abusing monopoly power to charge phone makers additional licensing fees for its modems — and seven months after seemingly losing that battle in a federal circuit court — the Federal Trade Commission has decided to throw in the towel. It's no longer planning to appeal to the Supreme Court, which means the case is done. If that were all, I probably wouldn't be writing it up for The Verge since things are exactly where we left off in August. But then I saw the FTC's explanation for why it's dropping the case, and... well, just read it:

| Volkswagen of America lied about rebranding to ‘Voltswagen’ Posted: 30 Mar 2021 02:00 PM PDT  Volkswagen of America lied about rebranding to "Voltswagen" in an effort to draw attention to the lone electric vehicle it's currently selling in the United States, Reuters and The Wall Street Journal have reported. It was a marketing stunt done ahead of April Fools' Day. This all started when Volkswagen of America "accidentally" published a draft version of a press release announcing the change on Monday, which was first reported by CNBC. The company had declined to comment on the report, and spokesperson Mark Gillies repeatedly declined to say whether the name change was a marketing stunt. The automaker, which pleaded guilty to deceiving regulators about the true pollution levels of hundreds of thousands of diesel vehicles, then... |
| YouTube denies employee request to remove rap song with anti-Chinese lyrics Posted: 30 Mar 2021 01:42 PM PDT  YouTube is facing employee calls to remove a rap song that allegedly encourages violence against Asians, according to a report from Bloomberg. Rapper YG's "Meet the Flockers" is a detailed description of a burglary — a relatively common trope in rap music — but it opens with a specific reference to Chinese communities: "find a Chinese neighborhood, cause they don't believe in bank accounts." In light of the recent rise in street violence against Asians, a group of YouTube employees argued that message was straightforwardly dangerous, ultimately asking the Trust & Safety team to remove the video. But YouTube ultimately declined to remove the song, citing the platform's exception for "educational, documentary, scientific, and artistic" (or... |
| Apple blocked some searches with the word ‘Asian,’ and now it’s getting fixed Posted: 30 Mar 2021 01:06 PM PDT  Apple's built-in web content filter for iOS and macOS has apparently been blocking any searches containing the word "Asian" for almost a year, and the error is finally getting fixed, according to a new report from Mashable. The issue shows up when you're using a device that has the "Limit Adult Websites" content restriction turned on. But it's not just blocking adult websites; it's blocking almost any searches relating to Asian culture, including "Asian market," "Asian culture," and even "stop Asian hate." The Verge was able to confirm that the above searches were blocked on devices running current versions of Apple's software (iPadOS 14.4.1 and macOS 11.2.3) with the content restrictions turned on. The searches are blocked on both... |
