What you may not know is that your iPhone can automatically identify fonts for you from photos, thanks to new apps that are harnessing the power of machine learning to analyze photos....

Governments were already discussing how to misuse CSAM scanning technology even before Apple announced its plans, say security researchers. The biggest concern raised when Apple said it would scan iPhones for child sexual abuse materials (CSAM) is that there would be spec-creep, with governments insisting the company scan for other types of images, and there now seems good evidence for this … Background Apple insisted that it had a solid safeguard in place to protect privacy and prevent misuse....

Corning, the company that currently supplies glass for Apple’s iOS devices, yesterday introduced its second generation glass substrate with the commercial launch of Corning Lotus XT Glass.

As such, other console owners have been envious of Nintendo’s output, with very few other kart racing games coming close....

Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger could resolve a major dropped plot thread from Agent Carter Season 2. In the comics, the character of Cloak is traditionally associated with an interdimensional energy known as the Darkforce.

Update: 13 billion euros later, we have an Apple response. CNBC reports that the European Commission investigating Apple’s tax arrangement with Ireland is ruling against the Cupertino company and recommending that Apple pay over $1.1 billion in back taxes. We wrote back in March that Apple was likely to lose its case as the tax arrangement with Ireland was likely to be declared illegal: But while the wheels of EU tax investigations may grind exceedingly slowly, I’d be willing to wager quite large sums of money on the final outcome....

For other forensic courses, please take a look at our boot-camp section, found here. Forensic database specialists have quite a difficult task when it comes to working through corrupted databases, as opposed to standard digital forensics, which deal with fragmented “normal” data as it is found on a conventional hard drive. This is because standard file systems allocate a header and a footer bit to a file, allowing for the reconstruction of the file, in some cases, by using information from the metadata in the file system....

Now, it’s worth noting that Windows 10 automatically creates a restore point for you before a significant event like installing a new driver or before a feature Windows update. And you can certainly create your own restore point any time you want. But if you want to make sure you’re staying on top of things, this will create a new one without having to think about it. This will help make sure you have the freshest restore point that you can go back to in case disaster strikes and you need to recover your system....

It’s really simple, just launch either assistant then say ‘Hey Cortana, open Alexa’. This will then open a world of new opportunities to your preferred assistant. For one, you no longer have to choose between a Cortana speaker or an Alexa device....

[vodpod id=Video.16274864&w=650&h=420&fv=] We are hearing additional little tidbits about the new iPad’s battery and its ability to charge beyond 100 percent. CNBC’s John Fortt reports Apple has stated that charging beyond 100 percent could somehow “harm the longevity of the battery.” This would be extremely odd, so we are skeptical and looking for clarification on the issue. We already observed the new iPad continues charging for an hour beyond its 100 percent and noted you get longer battery-use if you let the iPad stay on those extra 60 minutes....

We learned yesterday that the HomePod project has something of an interesting history. In particular, it appears to have been originally envisaged less as a gadget and more as HiFi. Reading this, I found myself wishing for what HomePod might have been rather than what it actually appears to be … The engineers wanted a product that would past muster with audiophiles.
