Recently, several developers complained about how Apple threatened to remove their apps from the App Store because they hadn't been updated in a "significant amount of time." Now, the company has responded — by issuing a press release effectively saying that nobody was downloading the apps anyways.

The notice, released on Friday evening, reads in part:

As part of the App Store Improvements process, developers of apps that have not been updated within the last three years and fail to meet a minimal download threshold — meaning the app has not been downloaded at all or extremely few times during a rolling 12 month period — receive an email notifying them that their app has been identified for possible removal from the App Store.

We've...

Sony has updated its PlayStation Plus FAQ page (tucked away at the bottom here) and is clamping down further on loopholes that gave users early discounts on its upcoming PlayStation Plus Premium service. It's also pausing the activation of PlayStation Plus and Now vouchers for current subscribers until after its new service rolls out in June, and there's even an official conversion chart showing the value of those vouchers for its upcoming three services; PlayStation Plus Essentials, Extra, and Premium.

After Sony announced its plan to restructure PlayStation Plus into a new three-tiered service to further compete with Microsoft's and Nintendo's services, things were slightly vague about how the conversion to the new tiers will work....

Marvel’s Fantastic Four movie just lost its director

Marvel Studios

Director Jon Watts' involvement in Marvel's wildly successful Spider-Man movies from the past few years made Kevin Feige's 2019 announcement that Watts would be helming the studio's upcoming Fantastic Four movie make more than a bit of sense. It seems now, though, that the plans for Marvel's First Family returning to the big screen have hit a snag.

Deadline reports that Jon Watts has amicably walked away from the upcoming Fantastic Four movie out of a very understandable desire to take a well-deserved break from making superhero movies. In a public statement, Kevin Feige expressed that working with Watts on the past three Spider-Man films was a joy and that the studio would very much like to collaborate with him in the future.

This is the end of the first week after Twitter accepted Elon Musk's $44 billion buyout offer, and one of the strangest tech transactions ever just keeps adding new twists. A detailed report from The Wall Street Journal has peeled back a few layers on the process that began with Musk accumulating Twitter stock back in January and what that might mean when he eventually closes the deal and becomes its owner. Taken with additional information from The Verge contributing editor Casey Newton in Platformer and a new report from Reuters, the picture starts to become clearer.

Reuters is adding more details to earlier reports from Bloomberg and The Washington Post about the ideas Musk pitched to bankers who will loan him some of the money he...

After initially debuting in 2020 as a somewhat timely lampooning of the United States Space Force, Netflix's Space Force workplace sitcom is being canceled. Deadline reports that Netflix has decided to scuttle the Jeff Daniels and Steve Carell-created series, likely in response to Space Force netting somewhat less-than-stellar ratings over the course of its short run. Space Force's second season debuted this past February and followed as its characters struggled to weather a change in presidential administrations. Though Space Force's cancellation may be a sore spot, from Netflix's perspective, it's likely yet another cost-saving measure the streamer ultimately felt was necessary to take as it continues to figure out its long-term...

Microsoft is adding a free built-in virtual private network (VPN) service to its Edge browser in a bid to improve security and privacy, a Microsoft support page revealed.

Called "Edge Secure Network," Microsoft is currently testing the Cloudflare-powered VPN service and says it will roll it out to the public as a part of a security upgrade.

When turned on, Edge Secure Network should encrypt users' web traffic so internet service providers can't collect browsing information you'd rather keep private, like, say, health-related searches or just plain bizarre queries.

The new feature will also let users hide their location by making it possible for them to browse the web using a virtual IP address. That also means users could access...

Intel CEO now says the chip shortage will ‘drift’ into 2024

Six months after predicting the global chip shortage would last until at least 2023, Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger is now suggesting it might be 2024 before we're fully out of the woods.

"[W]e believe the overall semiconductor shortage will now drift into 2024, from our earlier estimates in 2023, just because the shortages have now hit equipment and some of those factory ramps will be more challenged," he told CNBC on Friday.

But while that sounds a little doom-y and gloom-y, you should know that the "chip shortage" is an involved, evolving situation that doesn't affect every kind of chip at every time. Some industries and some kinds of parts have been worse hit than others as things go on. In fact, Intel's own chips are doing fairly well....
