Some of Verizon’s Visible cell network customers say they’ve been hacked

Some customers of Verizon's Visible service are using social media to say that hackers have accessed their accounts, changed their information to lock them out, and in some cases even ordered phones using their payment info (via XDA). If you're not familiar, Visible is a cell service owned and operated by Verizon that pitches itself as a less expensive, "all-digital" network, meaning there aren't any physical stores like you'd get with a traditional carrier. Starting on Monday, customers on both Twitter and Reddit reported en masse that they'd been getting emails from the company about changed passwords and addresses, and that they've had difficulties contacting the company's chat support.

The trans employee resource group at Netflix is planning a company-wide walkout on October 20th to protest statements made by co-CEO Ted Sarandos regarding Dave Chappelle's latest comedy special The Closer.

"Trans Lives Matter. Trans Rights Matter. And as an organization, Netflix has continually failed to show deep care in our mission to Entertain the World by repeatedly releasing content that harms the Trans community and continually failing to create content that represents and uplifts Trans content. We can and must do better!" wrote a leader of the trans ERG in an internal organizing message.

The event comes even as Netflix has reinstated Terra Field and two other employees who were suspended after attending a director-level meeting...

Samsung announces Unpacked 2 event for Wednesday Oct 20th, right after Apple and Google

Posted: 12 Oct 2021 05:00 PM PDT

Samsung has just sent out invitations for an event it is holding online on Wednesday, October 20th at 7AM PT / 10AM ET. It's called "Galaxy Unpacked Part 2," which is possibly an indication that rather than all new Galaxy phones, we may be seeing iterations on existing ones.

With Samsung's announcement, we'll now have an Apple event on Monday (where we are expecting new MacBook Pros), Google's Pixel 6 launch on Tuesday, and now Samsung's apparently smaller event on Wednesday.

In addition to the invite's image, Samsung's newsroom post announcing the event hints at some kind of personalization for Galaxy devices: "Our users are multifaceted and live life in so many colorful, interesting, and unique ways. As such, the technology they use...

After more than a year of teasing and occasional streams, G4 will make its return as a linear TV channel on November 16th. So far, the channel is confirmed to appear on Comcast/Xfinity, Verizon Fios, Cox, and Philo. Since announcing its return last year, G4 has put out some reunion content plus occasional streams on Twitch, where the network will maintain a "multi-year promotional and commercial partnership."

Though the original G4 faded out when it got rebranded as the Esquire Channel about eight years ago, the network's new mantra is that "we never stopped playing." Network president Russell Arons writes in a statement that G4 "can't wait to have our fans join us in our hilarious and fairly preposterous sandbox."

When G4 comes back...

Netflix is adding the original Cowboy Bebop so you can watch it all before the live action adaptation

Netflix is adding the original Cowboy Bebop anime series to its catalog on October 21st, giving you about a month to watch it all ahead of the live-action series' debut on November 19th.

This is great news for me personally. I've been extremely intrigued by what Netflix has shown from the live-action series — which so far has included a series of images and the opening title sequence, which is inspired heavily by the one from the anime — but I haven't seen the original show for myself. Now that the whole show will be on Netflix, I can see it all with a subscription to just one streaming service.

Netflix's hugely popular series Squid Game has become its biggest title ever at launch, the company said Monday.

The company's Netflix Geeked account tweeted Monday that Hwang Dong-Hyuk's survival thriller reached 111 million global accounts in its first 17 days on the service. Additionally, Squid Game is the first Netflix series to surpass 100 million in its first 28 days on the service, a spokesperson told The Verge. Netflix typically uses 28-day windows to measure the performance of a title on its platform.

The spokesperson confirmed to The Verge that the figures it shared are based on the number of accounts that watched the series for at least two minutes, its standard metric for ranking titles (though it has used additional...

On Monday, I wrote about leaked details of an unannounced HTC Vive Flow VR headset that's expected to be announced at an event on Thursday. Just one day later, we now know what it looks like thanks to images shared by prolific leaker Evan Blass, who has been actively posting new photos over the course of the evening. According to a slide in a more recent tweet, the device will cost $499 and start shipping in November.

Here's the first batch:

Overall, the images in Blass' first tweet match many of the details reported by Protocol on Monday, but they give a much better idea of what the final device may look like. (And I'm just going to say it: the leaked promo...

Coinbase is adding a way to showcase NFTs later this year

Coinbase announced Monday that it plans to sell, trade, and mint NFTs in an expansion from the marketplace's cryptocurrency-based roots. Details on how "Coinbase NFT" will do all of that are slim, but the company sees an opportunity. "Just as Coinbase helped millions of people access bitcoin for the first time in an easy and trusted way — we want to do the same for the NFTs," Coinbase vice president of product Sanchan Saxena writes.

The big idea seems to be social engagement. Coinbase wants to "curate your personal feed" of NFTs and display the NFTs you own on your profile so you can make connections with like-minded fans of digital cats, punks, apes, and beyond.

At launch, Coinbase NFT "will support Ethereum based ERC-721 and ERC-1155...

Charter has been telling former customers that it'll forgive their debts and stop reporting them to credit agencies if they resubscribe to the company's Spectrum TV, internet, or voice service, according to a story from the Los Angeles Times. The "one-time courtesy" offer came to light after Steve Schklair, who says he hasn't been a Spectrum customer for years and doesn't owe the company money, shared a letter describing the supposed deal with the LA Times. Charter later confirmed the letter was authentic, saying that it was an offer that was meant to help consumers "reconnect" to Spectrum, as well as get a leg up on their finances.

According to the LA Times, the letter Charter sent Schklair said the company would cancel his (supposed)...

Vudu's freemium streaming app is now supported on Facebook's Oculus Quest 1 and Quest 2 VR devices, with a spokesperson telling The Verge more than a hundred 3D titles are available to buy or rent.

The Fandango-owned streaming service — which was purchased from Walmart last year — supports both free, ad-supported movies and TV, as well as rentals and purchases. In addition to the 100-plus titles available on Vudu in 3D, the service additionally offers more than 200,000 titles to rent or buy to stream on other devices, as well as thousands of ad-supported titles.
