Google has been doing a lot of great things with Android over the past couple of years, so we’re excited to see what’s next with Android 17. And while we still have some months to go before we get an official release, with an expected arrival date sometime this summer, Google has already started the rollout of its latest Android 17 update with Beta 1, which arrived just a couple of weeks ago. Despite a small hiccup, Beta 1 came and went, and we’re now seeing Beta 2 arrive for supported Pixel phones. As you can imagine, there are plenty…
Google API keys for services like Maps embedded in accessible client-side code could be used to authenticate to the Gemini AI assistant and access private data. Researchers found nearly 3,000 such keys while scanning internet pages from organizations in various sectors, and even from Google. The problem occurred when Google introduced its Gemini assistant, and developers started enabling the LLM API in projects. Before this, Google Cloud API keys were not considered sensitive data and could be exposed online without risk. Developers can use API keys to extend functionality in a project, such as loading Maps on a website to share a…

Apple announced on Thursday that the iPhone and iPad have been approved by NATO to handle classified information and have been added to the military alliance’s Information Assurance Product Catalogue (NIAPC). The tech giant said its phones and tablets are the first consumer devices to receive this level of approval, specifically the ‘NATO RESTRICTED’ level. The NIAPC is NATO’s official registry of vetted cybersecurity products that alliance members and its military/civil entities can use to meet critical operational security demands. NIAPC enforces rigorous entry rules for listed security items: products typically must originate from NATO countries, carry approved certifications, obtain…
We may earn a commission from links on this page. If you track your runs (and bike rides, and all your other exercise) with a Garmin device, you’ve probably already found its gear tracking features. This is how I realized I’d put over 1,000 miles on my favorite Nikes. Until recently, the usefulness stopped there. But in a new (free) update, Garmin has introduced a ton of new gear tracking features, including one I’ve been hoping for ever since I bought my first pair of trail shoes. Now, gear tracking isn’t just for shoes. If you ride a bike, you…
Most people do not wake up one day and decide they are done with a product category. They leave when the workflow starts to feel like work. Think about something mundane. Planning a trip, picking a new doctor, comparing two insurance options, deciding which grill to buy, figuring out what to do in a new city for one afternoon. You used to “search.” That meant typing, scanning, opening tabs, cross-checking, coming back, refining the query, repeating the loop until you felt confident enough to decide. That loop is not a preference; it is labor. Search worked because it was the…
As a gamer, I always built my computers with one goal in mind: a smooth gaming experience. Two decades ago, that meant something entirely different than it does now, and for the most part, many of us were happy to run the latest games at 1024×768, if not less. These days, with ever-growing hardware demands and games that aren’t optimized too well, we’re dealing with a whole host of different issues. At a time when 60 fps is no longer enough for many, and 30 fps isn’t possible in many games without upscaling and frame generation, it feels like getting…
