It took years for Android phones to catch up to the iPhone’s Live Photos. Even now, the experience often feels less refined than Apple’s implementation. A key limitation has been the all-or-nothing approach: motion photos on Android typically work as a simple on/off toggle. With the Galaxy S26, Samsung aims to improve that by introducing an Auto mode for motion photos. As the option suggests, the Galaxy S26 will automatically save a motion photo only when it detects movement in the scene. However, there’s a catch (via Samsung Community). The Auto mode primarily applies to landscapes or static scenes with…
In a big win for protesters’ rights, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit overturned a lower court’s dismissal of a challenge to sweeping warrants to search a protester’s devices and digital data and a nonprofit’s social media data. The case, Armendariz v. City of Colorado Springs, arose after a housing protest in 2021, during which Colorado Springs police arrested protesters for obstructing a roadway. After the demonstration, police also obtained warrants to seize and search through the devices and data of Jacqueline Armendariz Unzueta, who they claimed threw a bike at them during the protest. The warrants…

TL;DR The Galaxy Z TriFold and the Galaxy S25 Edge may not have successors. This is largely due to low comparative sales for the Edge, engineering complexity, and limited consumer appeal for the TriFold. Samsung’s single-folding projects are alive and well, with a wider Fold firmly in the works. Last year, we saw the release of two on-trend and innovative handsets from Samsung: the Galaxy S25 Edge and the Galaxy Z TriFold, respectively. If you purchased either or were hoping to buy either of their more refined sequels, you might be waiting a long time.In a recent interview with Bloomberg,…
Ravie LakshmananFeb 26, 2026Malware / Threat Intelligence A previously undocumented threat activity cluster has been attributed to an ongoing malicious campaign targeting education and healthcare sectors in the U.S. since at least December 2025. The campaign is being tracked by Cisco Talos under the moniker UAT-10027. The end goal of the attacks is to deliver a never-before-seen backdoor codenamed Dohdoor. “Dohdoor utilizes the DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) technique for command-and-control (C2) communications and has the ability to download and execute other payload binaries reflectively,” security researchers Alex Karkins and Chetan Raghuprasad said in a technical report shared with The Hacker News. Although…

The Advanced Installer and bzcli were built to meet that need. “Backblaze has always been built on ease of use, but…
