  21-10-2021 21:01 via thenextweb.com

• Edward Snowden: ‘If you weaken encryption, people will die’

  21-10-2021 15:40 via thenextweb.com
  
  Our online privacy faces growing threats. Governments around the world are calling for encryption backdoors that would enable access to personal information. They argue that encryption protects criminals. But it also protects activists, dissidents, persecuted groups, and ordinary citizens. Edward Snowden is among the most prominent beneficiaries. The whistleblower’s first messages to journalists were made with encryption. They resulted in revelations that millions of Americans had been un

• Are recycled EV batteries as good a new ones? Yes! A thousand times yes!

  21-10-2021 15:21 via thenextweb.com
  
  EVs are a green alternative and we love them for that. But they could be even greener if we regularly recycled the valuable metals their batteries contain instead of relentlessly squeezing Mother Earth. The good news is battery recycling has been getting traction, and there are now many companies in North America and Europe building recycling plants, including Li-Cycle, Northvolt, Redwood Materials, and ReLIB, to name a few. But here’s the bad news: there’s still a big fat elephant

  The Research Brief is a short take on interesting academic work. The big idea Even whenkids spend five hours a day on screen – whether computers, television, or text– it doesn’t appear to be harmful. That’s what my colleagues and I at the University of Colorado Boulder discovered after analyzing data taken from nearly 12,000 participants in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study – the largest long-term study of its kind ever in the U.S. The participants i

• We reviewed the iPhone 13 with a series of haikus

  21-10-2021 13:44 via thenextweb.com
  
  Once a year I’m hit with an impossible question: how the hell do you review the new iPhone? Do you write for the tech-heads who obsess over every details? The broader public who may only upgrade their phone every few years? Sceptics? Fans? There’s simply no right way. Making this even trickier is the fact the devices are now incredibly mature. This year’s model (the iPhone 13 in case you didn’t get that from the headline) continues a series of iterative upgrades that str

  21-10-2021 13:28 via thenextweb.com

The Ego4D project provides a huge collection of first-person video and related data, plus a set of challenges for researchers to teach computers to understand the data and gather useful information from it. In September, the social media giant launched a line of “smart glasses” called Ray-Ban Stories, which

• Uhh, Donald Trump is launching a social network called… Truth

  21-10-2021 08:32 via thenextweb.com
  
  In a perfectly aligned joke, rumors emerged about Facebook renaming itself, Donald Trump has launched a new social network named Truth. That’s a bold choice, given how Trump has been accused of making more than his fair share of misleading statements over the years. Trump’s team said the new social network will be a rival “to the liberal media consortium and fight back against ‘Big Tech’ companies of Silicon Valley.” Like we haven’t heard that one befor

• Social media’s ‘queer tax’ is exhausting, unfair, and unavoidable

  21-10-2021 00:55 via thenextweb.com
  
  A colleague recently sought my advice on covering a queer-related tech topic and I’m not ashamed to admit I advised them against it. I’m queer. I made the decision to come out in my professional life after a lot of consideration and long discussions with my family. In the time since, I’ve learned that millions of people who’ve never met me hate me. They despise me for existing. They think I should go away, shut up, and stop being who I am. I offend them.
