| Justice Department cracks down on Amazon sellers’ DVD price-fixing scheme Posted: 07 Jan 2022 08:44 AM PST  The Justice Department has charged three men with a DVD and Blu-ray price-fixing operation run through the Amazon Marketplace. The men — Morris Sutton, Emmanuel Hourizadeh, and Raymond Nouvahian — pleaded guilty yesterday to violating criminal antitrust laws under the Sherman Act for a scheme that lasted from 2017 to 2019. Sutton, Hourizadeh, and Nouvahian collaborated with each other (as well as other unnamed parties, at least one of which has also pleaded guilty) across several US states to make buyers pay more for movie discs from Amazon's third-party Marketplace storefronts. A set of plea agreements offer a few more details about the plot, which resulted in Sutton selling at least $360,000 worth of DVDs and Blu-rays over the course... |
| Vergecast: CES 2022 favorites, vaporware, and what may actually ship Posted: 07 Jan 2022 07:50 AM PST  Every Friday, The Verge publishes our flagship podcast, The Vergecast, where co-hosts Nilay Patel and Dieter Bohn discuss the week in tech news with the reporters and editors covering the biggest stories. Today, we published the first Vergecast of 2022 — and we're starting off strong with a 90-minute show on nearly everything we saw from the Consumer Electronics Show this week. In what turned out to be a pretty decent CES (without even being there in person), Nilay, Dieter, and Alex Cranz run through all the gadgets, TVs, cars, and computers that point toward the future of consumer technology and some perhaps that were just an art installation or vaporware. There's a whole lot discussed on this week's show, so listen here or in your... |
| Swiss Army drops WhatsApp for homegrown messaging service, citing privacy concerns Posted: 07 Jan 2022 07:29 AM PST  The Swiss army has banned the use of WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, and other foreign encrypted messaging services by army personnel, according to Associated Press reports, and instructed staff to use the Swiss-made Threema app instead. The announcement was made in a letter sent to top army staff in December, citing privacy concerns based on US authorities' ability to access data. The original letter reportedly told army chiefs that "no other messaging service will be authorized," although a spokesperson subsequently seemed to tone down the strength of the decree, describing it to the AP as a "recommendation." The primary concern seems to be the ability of authorities in Washington to access data stored by companies that fall under US... |
| Apple Fitness Plus is adding audio running workouts Posted: 07 Jan 2022 07:27 AM PST  After launching Fitness Plus in December 2020, Apple has continuously added new features, including audio walks with celebrities and new workout programs for pregnant and older users. Today, it's announcing a few more additions, with the standout being audio running experiences dubbed Time to Run. According to Apple's press release, Time to Run can help users "become more consistent and better runners," and each session focuses on a popular running route in a specific location. The sessions will be led by Fitness Plus trainers Emily Fayette, Jamie-Ray Hartshorne, Sam Sanchez, and Scott Carvin — they all also coach the service's treadmill workouts. Apple will also be adding another running coach, Cory Wharton-Malcolm. Each episode will... |
| Where to preorder the colorful new PS5 covers and DualSense controllers Posted: 07 Jan 2022 07:24 AM PST  Ever since the PlayStation 5 was announced, opinions regarding its design and styling have been, well, mixed. Many jokes and memes have been made about the gargantuan size of the PS5, and how its two-tone monochromatic color and stretched-out wings are reminiscent of an oversized router. Jokes aside, once Sony revealed that the white covers are user-removable, there has been a demand for replacements. Enough people instantly wanted to own a blacked-out PS5 that a small cottage industry of third-party suppliers cropped up, selling unlicensed accessories until Sony came out swinging with cease and desist letters. Sony finally came around and announced its own official replacement covers for the disc-based PS5 and the Digital Edition in... |
| The 2021 iPad Mini with 5G support is $20 off today Posted: 07 Jan 2022 06:47 AM PST  If you've been waiting for a deal to drop on Apple's latest iPad Mini, today is your lucky day. Discounts on the LTE- and 5G-ready version of the iPad Mini are rare, but Amazon has the 64GB model (usually $649.99) for $629.98. That is a small discount, but for context, it's actually $1 shy of its best price we've seen yet for this model. The tablet, which released in 2021, is equipped with Apple's A15 Bionic processor, a 12MP rear camera, and USB-C support. It also comes with Apple's Center Stage feature, which allows the front-facing camera to digitally pan and zoom in during video calls. Read our review. We've got another Apple deal for you, but this one may help you achieve your fitness goals, if you have some. While we've been... |
| Posted: 07 Jan 2022 06:00 AM PST  Another year of the Consumer Electronics Show has wrapped up, and it was a strange one: the weeks leading up to it were filled with cancellations due to Omicron, and as a result the show floor was virtually empty. The keynote presentations lacked the usual spectacle; the pomp was overshadowed by the circumstance. Nevertheless, I found myself surprised to realize that CES 2022 was a slightly better than average year for the show. There weren't any industry-shaking products announced and shipping — but that almost never happens at CES, and the expectation that it should was always misguided. Instead, we saw some genuinely good improvements on technology that will actually ship, which isn't always the case at CES. Here are just a few of my... |
| Amazon’s latest Echo Show update adds more live video news providers Posted: 07 Jan 2022 05:01 AM PST  Amazon has announced a couple of small quality of life improvements for different Alexa devices. Its Echo Show lineup of smart displays are getting more live video news content in the US and an easier way to navigate news channels. Meanwhile, mobile Alexa devices are also gaining the ability to share your ETA while you're using their navigation features. The new live video content providers for Echo Show owners in the US are from People TV, ET Live, and Bloomberg TV Plus. Amazon says it has more on the way soon. These new channels, as well as the Echo Show's existing library of live video and on demand audio news channels, can now be accessed via a new provider list that'll be displayed at the bottom of the screen. |

| France fines Google and Facebook for pushing tracking cookies on users with dark patterns Posted: 07 Jan 2022 03:07 AM PST  If you ever feel like websites have turned the simple business of rejecting tracking cookies into a labyrinthine task that involves close-reading of multiple dialog boxes, then France's data protection agency has your back. The watchdog (CNIL) has fined Google €150 million ($170 million) and Facebook €60 million ($68 million) for making it too confusing for users to reject cookies. The companies now have three months to change their ways in France. With Facebook, CNIL notes that in order to refuse cookies, French users first have to click on a button labelled "Accept cookies" (emphasis ours). Such labelling "necessarily generates confusion," says CNIL, leading users to believe they have no choice in the matter. With Google, the problem... |
