00:00:00.960 --> 00:00:07.839
oh man this day sucks how about some tech news hey oh yeah

00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:11.759
sounds good Intel seems to have inadvertently revealed their upcoming

00:00:09.440 --> 00:00:16.160
9th generation core processors in a micro code update document right after

00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:23.119
the familiar 8th gen gang are the names of a bunch of 9000 series chips from the

00:00:18.720 --> 00:00:24.960
i3 9000 to the i5 9600k however don't

00:00:23.119 --> 00:00:28.560
start squealing in excitement yet because they're listed as still being

00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:32.800
part of the 8th generation family of processors which means these new chips

00:00:31.119 --> 00:00:36.960
are probably going to be refreshes of coffee lake and are probably using the

00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:41.760
same 14 animated process we've seen since sky lake but but they've got a

00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:45.200
nine in front of them so you don't see that every day for

00:00:43.760 --> 00:00:49.120
those of you that are paranoid that your apps are listening in on you well

00:00:48.079 --> 00:00:54.559
they might still be doing that but it's slightly less likely than we all thought

00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:59.280
researchers at northeastern university in boston studied more than 17 000 apps

00:00:57.280 --> 00:01:02.800
on ten different popular Android phones for over a year and they found no

00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:06.320
evidence of an app activating a microphone or sending audio when it

00:01:04.320 --> 00:01:11.119
wasn't supposed to what they did find evidence of however was rogue screen

00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:14.799
recording some apps sent screenshots and video files to third parties without

00:01:12.720 --> 00:01:18.240
user permission google has responded saying they're working with developers

00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:22.560
to ensure users are adequately informed of apps abilities and permissions but

00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:28.400
there's a silver lining in all this we have one new thing to be paranoid about

00:01:24.720 --> 00:01:30.479
nice i'm collecting reasons for paranoia

00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:34.000
it's a hobby oh perfect here's another one speaking of sending unwanted pics

00:01:32.479 --> 00:01:38.079
samsung phones have apparently been sending random photos from users camera

00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:42.320
rolls to their contacts the offending app is samsung's default texting app

00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:45.439
messages which doesn't even show users that the files have been sent victims

00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:49.520
have simply been informed by the contacts who received the photos samsung

00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:55.439
is apparently looking into it but some are speculating this might have something to do with recent updates from

00:01:52.880 --> 00:01:59.360
network carriers enabling rcs messaging which is supposed to make sms texts

00:01:57.520 --> 00:02:02.640
behave more like online messaging apps like whatsapp it would be nice to get to

00:02:01.119 --> 00:02:08.319
the bottom of this but it won't save your mom's eyes after they've been permanently damaged from finally getting

00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:13.040
a text from you opening it and instead of a nice love you mom appreciate you

00:02:11.200 --> 00:02:17.200

watching tv news is coming out that netflix is considering a new ultra

subscription tier that could cost over 20 bucks a month and take some features

00:02:58.640 --> 00:03:06.560
away from the lower tiers stupid tv subscription packages are dead

00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:10.480
long live stupid streaming tv packages much better ubisoft's vice president

00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:14.480
says the company is basically looking to stop making one-off single-player

00:03:12.480 --> 00:03:17.760
story-based experiences and they're going to try and make more games where

00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:21.519
you beat the bad guy but then there's always more bad guys to beat and you

00:03:19.519 --> 00:03:24.800

creed you'll never leave ubisoft would love that thanks guys

00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:32.400
rainway a game streaming service has investigated fortnite hacking tools and

00:03:30.720 --> 00:03:35.360
at least one of them has malware that's currently infecting tens of thousands of

00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:38.879
players it would be sweet justice if it meant

00:03:37.519 --> 00:03:44.080
that they still didn't have the hack to get 100 headshots all the time if you

00:03:41.760 --> 00:03:48.400

00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:04.319
plugins for gmail can read your emails but they're all certified and totally

00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:06.080
