00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.080
Twitter is continuing its ill-advised rebranding us ax with a mixed degree of

00:00:05.400 --> 00:00:11.639
success I'm James tribe this is techlinked and the iconic dictionary

00:00:09.179 --> 00:00:17.039
changing tweet has been renamed to the utterly generic post very zuckerbergian

00:00:14.460 --> 00:00:22.140
similarly the once free to use tweet deck is now available as X pro not to be

00:00:20.100 --> 00:00:26.760
confused with x-pro mit's online learning program xpro the Chinese dirt

00:00:24.300 --> 00:00:30.779
bike brand x-pro the crypto token X pro the laptop or xpro the photographic

00:00:29.220 --> 00:00:35.280
technique otherwise known as cross processing while X was initially unable

00:00:33.300 --> 00:00:39.540
to change its name on the Apple App Store due to having fewer than two

00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:44.520
characters Apple has now made an exception inflicting the rebranding on

00:00:42.360 --> 00:00:49.260
iPhone users everywhere last week Elon Musk tried and failed to remove the

00:00:46.800 --> 00:00:54.120
Twitter sign from X headquarters without a permit musk Having learned exactly

00:00:51.660 --> 00:00:58.620
nothing then had workers erect a giant flashing X on the roof directly facing a

00:00:57.120 --> 00:01:03.420
residential building across the street it too has been removed at x-corps

00:01:01.140 --> 00:01:07.920
expense worry not musk fans because X has introduced its hottest new feature

00:01:05.339 --> 00:01:11.939
to date the ability to hide the blue check mark indicating that you actually

00:01:09.659 --> 00:01:16.920
paid for this tomfoolery like The Scarlet Letter it is shame is a feature

00:01:14.460 --> 00:01:21.119
not a bug a recently Declassified report revealed that U.S intelligence agencies

00:01:18.900 --> 00:01:26.159
are purchasing large amounts of sensitive and intimate information that

00:01:23.580 --> 00:01:29.759
could be used to facilitate blackmail if it fell into the wrong hands raising the

00:01:28.259 --> 00:01:35.159
question of whether shadowy government spies should be described as the right

00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:39.240
hands depends how soft are they now new legislation proposed by Congress would

00:01:37.140 --> 00:01:43.079
restrict all government agencies from purchasing data from private vendors

00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:47.400
that would otherwise require a warrant to obtain the government agency most

00:01:45.060 --> 00:01:51.680
displeased with the news is exactly the one you'd expect the fish and wildlife

00:01:49.380 --> 00:01:55.860
service actually it's the NSA representatives of the NSA have

00:01:54.119 --> 00:02:00.119
apparently reached out to lawmakers to express concerns that these legal

00:01:58.140 --> 00:02:03.540
changes could restrict their ability to conduct Mass surveillance on U.S

00:02:01.799 --> 00:02:08.340
citizens without having to convince a judge for first to be fair NSA lawyers

00:02:06.240 --> 00:02:12.780
have reportedly created extensive internal guidelines for the collection

00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:15.660
of commercially available data and I tell you what they are but they're

00:02:14.580 --> 00:02:22.500
classified the cyberspace administration of China

00:02:18.480 --> 00:02:24.660
or CAC has proposed regulations that

00:02:22.500 --> 00:02:31.500
would dramatically curtail internet use among the country's miners 16 to 18 year

00:02:28.200 --> 00:02:34.739
olds get two hours per day one hour if

00:02:31.500 --> 00:02:36.959
you're 8 to 16 and users under eight get

00:02:34.739 --> 00:02:41.280
just eight minutes combine that with forbidding any miners from internet

00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:44.519
usage between the hours of 10 pm and 6 a.m and I'm guessing someone high in the

00:02:43.200 --> 00:02:48.599
Chinese government is tired of being woken up by their toddler's blasting

00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:53.940
baby shark at 3am in the morning I know I am in an official statement the CAC

00:02:51.239 --> 00:02:58.920
said the regulations are to help minors reduce internet addiction and the

00:02:56.640 --> 00:03:02.700
influence of bad information I'm just gonna carefully sidestep over the ladder

00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:06.959
Point like the landmine it is and focus on the addiction part of that statement

00:03:04.440 --> 00:03:11.040
in the past China has also cracked down on online gaming addiction by

00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:15.239
restricting miners to an hour a day on Fridays weekends and public holidays

00:03:12.659 --> 00:03:19.980
kids aren't the only ones upset 10 cent and bite dance are some of the many Tech

00:03:17.940 --> 00:03:24.540
firms whose stocks have dropped since the announcement won't someone think of

00:03:21.959 --> 00:03:27.480
the billion dollar corporations quick someone do a tick tock about it now it's

00:03:26.340 --> 00:03:32.220

Wicked smart the quick bits have been inside you all along

so you better cough and back up before I start the Heimlich maneuver

00:04:05.519 --> 00:04:11.340
it's crotch to buns Apple has announced it will now be requiring developers

00:04:09.780 --> 00:04:17.519
submitting their apps to the Apple Store to justify their use of certain apis in

00:04:15.299 --> 00:04:21.660
an attempt to quash certain forms of user tracking the concern here is that

00:04:19.739 --> 00:04:26.280
some developers might be misusing these tools as a loophole to get away with

00:04:23.880 --> 00:04:30.240
fingerprinting users as in attempting to create unique identifiers for users or

00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:33.360
their devices without permission it's like getting fingerprinted in real life

00:04:31.620 --> 00:04:38.340
except it lacks the rare opportunity to feel a police officer hold your hand but

00:04:35.520 --> 00:04:43.080
gently oh officer Brian the way he rolled it across the pad let's share a

00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:48.479
donut later a new Android malware called Cherry Bloss can steal user credentials

00:04:45.479 --> 00:04:50.460
using optical character recognition and

00:04:48.479 --> 00:04:55.380
is inside at least four apps available to download from sites promoting get

00:04:52.919 --> 00:04:59.580
rich quick schemes if a user infected with cherry Bloss opens a legitimate

00:04:57.300 --> 00:05:03.780
cryptocurrency service the malware overlay a window that mimics the app

00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:07.199
snap a photo when you enter your credentials and then use Optical Care

00:05:05.460 --> 00:05:11.520
character recognition to recognize the displayed text and give it to the

00:05:09.419 --> 00:05:16.139
attacker if you feel misled by those get rich quick schemes they weren't lying to

00:05:13.440 --> 00:05:20.460
you they just never specified who was getting rich today twitch announced that

00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:25.440
it will be expanding its ban on gambling live streams to two additional online

00:05:22.500 --> 00:05:29.580
casinos and prohibiting promotion of Cs go skin gambling sites claiming that

00:05:27.660 --> 00:05:34.080
gambling viewership has dropped by around 75 percent since it implemented

00:05:31.860 --> 00:05:38.400
its new policy last October this coincides with a survey from YouTuber

00:05:35.820 --> 00:05:43.440
Hong kongya or something that suggests over 70 percent of Cs go skin gamblers

00:05:40.860 --> 00:05:47.639
start before they're the age of 18. he also created a new steam account and

00:05:45.300 --> 00:05:53.880
accessed unregistered casinos without ever passing an age gate under the

00:05:49.979 --> 00:05:55.080
username I'm 14 BTW maybe they knew he

00:05:53.880 --> 00:06:00.060
was lying after losing contact with the Voyager 2

00:05:57.419 --> 00:06:05.340
last month NASA finally reconnected with the probe this Tuesday the silence

00:06:02.100 --> 00:06:07.440
started when a wrong command tilted the

00:06:05.340 --> 00:06:11.460
Voyager 2's antenna away from Earth preventing it from receiving additional

00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:14.940
instructions or sending any data back or maybe NASA said something hurtful and

00:06:13.020 --> 00:06:18.900
Voyager 2 just needed some time for itself but what more does it need we've

00:06:16.740 --> 00:06:22.560
already given it space 12.3 billion miles of it we're trying to make this

00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:27.660
work here semiconductor manufacturer Infineon will soon offer biodegradable

00:06:25.440 --> 00:06:31.919
circuit boards that dissolve in hot water making them not just recyclable

00:06:29.280 --> 00:06:36.720
but compostable too but worry not your computer is not likely to decompose on a

00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:40.680
humid summer day in Delhi the solu Board needs to be immersed in near boiling

00:06:38.699 --> 00:06:43.919
water for half an hour before it starts to delaminate face it if you're

00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:47.039
regularly steeping your motherboard like a forgotten tea bag

00:06:45.539 --> 00:06:52.680
your warranty is pretty much toast anyways it's got to be in there for at least 60 minutes to get the full flavor

00:06:50.819 --> 00:06:56.460
Steve and tea and toast sounds like a perfect snack for when you come back on

00:06:54.120 --> 00:06:59.419
Friday for more Tech news just don't spill it on anything
