The police service in Scotland has posted a video showing a Cellebrite device in action, accessing text messages, photos, and calendar entries from a smartphone. The same device is used by many US law enforcement agencies… Police Scotland argues that these devices minimize intrusion by allowing officers to quickly determine whether or not a phone contains relevant evidence. If not, it says, the phone can be quickly returned to its owner....
Stalkerware is surprisingly easy to plant on someone’s phone, and trackers follow you online and offline. Tap or click for signs whether you’re being watched or just paranoid. Tracking software is frightening. It’s designed to report exactly where you are and what you’re doing on your phone. Tap or click for signs tracking software on your phone and what you can do about it.

The announcement comes a couple of weeks before the annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES), where the 17G90Q will presumably be on display. LG gave itself a challenge to try to squeeze larger, hotter components into the super-svelte Gram chassis, one that’s even trickier as the 17G90G is built around a massive 17.3-inch display. LG had already refined its sleek design on the Gram 17, which manages in its latest iteration to weigh just under 3 pounds and measure just 0....
Certain elements of a web page you would find in a desktop browser are not always a mobile version, whether this is for easier navigation; or to ensure the page loads properly on the device. A feature of web browsers called the user agent string makes this happen. Web developers use this feature in their web browsers to test how their websites will look and work on different platforms without owning that device....

Apple has quickly shot to third place in the market occupying 9 per cent share, just a few percentage points behind second place manufacturer, Palm, with 16 per cent....

The iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro lineup is set to be revealed in a week and a half, and naturally, we mostly know what to expect: a big focus on camera improvements thanks to the new triple-camera system.

Among the various topics, like the new employee discount program, discussed at a recent all-hands Town Hall session with Apple employees was something seemingly very important to CEO Tim Cook: Charity. Unlike cofounder Steve Jobs who thought his company should focus on maximizing shareholders’ value so they can donate their own wealth, the new boss is adamant that Apple must do more on this front. According to The Verge, the Town Hall meeting saw Cook shed more light on Apple’s charitable contributions that totaled $150 million (versus a cool $97....
After a long wait, Channel 4’s on demand service is finally available for Apple TV. This means the last major UK TV channel is now officially onboard with Apple’s set-top box. Whilst it is great that the app is now available on the App Store, search for ‘All 4’ in the tvOS App Store, the initial release of the All 4 app is relatively barebones.

The more powerful Ace becomes, the more awful things he has to do....
I’ve talked a lot about CCLeaner over the years as it’s one of my favorite security/privacy Freeware packages out there for both MAC and Windows. You can use it to clear privacy data off your PC as well as manage startup programs. The publisher of the software Piriform has other great titles we’ve written about like a freeware file/folder recovery or undelete product Recurva or system inventory tool Speccy. All are worth a look if you ever need to recover a file or get detailed info on your system....
Chris Evans shattered all of our hearts when he posted that now infamous goodbye tweet, following his wrap on Avengers 4. While we don’t know what’s going to happen to Steve Rogers until the film is released, we do know that we’ll miss Evans portraying the popular character. We’re also most definitely going to majorly stock up on tissues beforehand. After all, through 10 years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and 75+ years in comics, Captain America has affected a lot of people: on page, on screen, and in real life....

Live sports on Apple TV has always been a tricky matter as networks typically keep major sporting events on tradition channels, but we’re slowly starting to see more and more major sporting events officially available on Internet streaming services. CBS Sports is making waves in this space especially as it announced this week that it will stream two regular season NFL games, four playoff games, and even Super Bowl 50 on Apple TV, iPad, and other devices this season....
Charlie’s Angels (2019) is rip-roaring fun from start to finish, with energetic action and female empowerment that actually feels empowering. From the opening shot of the new Charlie’s Angels movie - an extended close-up on Kristen Stewart’s face as she reacts to and rebuffs the patronizing statements of a wealthy man off-camera - it’s abundantly clear that this movie made the conscious decision to be from the point of view of the female gaze....
Warning: Minor SPOILERS for Weapon H #6 & #7 He may be a violent hybrid, but the Hulverine is enough of a hero to land Captain America as a partner. Judging by the cover artwork and plot synopses for Marvel’s Weapon H series from Greg Pak, at least. After being created in a lab as the perfect case of scientists asking whether or not they could and not if they should, life hasn’t been easy for the soldier formerly known as Clay....
