  Android 8.1 Oreo coming to OnePlus 5T and OnePlus 5

  Publié: mars 12, 2018, 8:37pm CET par Mihăiță Bamburic

  It's become quite clear that the idea of having major updates available in a timely fashion remains a distant dream for many Android users. Lots of smartphones remain a version or two behind the latest big release of the popular operating system, even though the hardware is more than capable of handling it. Trouble is it's not (just) obscure companies that are failing users, but major players too. Take Samsung and the Galaxy S8 for instance. The Oreo roll-out only just started, but it's based on Android 8.0 -- not 8.1, as you would expect. Fortunately, there are some exceptions,… [Continue Reading]

  Flaws could turn smart cameras into data-stealing spy tools

  Publié: mars 12, 2018, 4:47pm CET par Ian Barker

  Security vulnerabilities in some popular smart cameras, used as baby monitors and for security surveillance, could lead to them being exploited by hackers. Research from Kaspersky Lab has found multiple issues with cameras, manufactured by Korean company Hanwha Techwin, that could allow attackers to obtain remote access to video and audio feeds from the cameras, remotely disable the devices and execute arbitrary malicious code on them. The flaws would also allow attackers to steal personal information such as users' social network accounts and information which is used to send users notifications. Hackers could also remotely 'brick' vulnerable cameras. It's important to… [Continue Reading]

  Intel-sponsored study finds that smart cities save time

  Publié: mars 12, 2018, 4:23pm CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  A study sponsored by Intel has come to the rather unsurprising conclusion that smart cities save people time. The company says that major cities that have embraced the Internet of Things (IoT) can save each of their citizens up to 125 hours per year. Being able to claw back more than five days over the course of a year seems too good to be true, but the study from Intel and Juniper Research appears to bear out the claim. The research looked at smart cities around the world, ranking them accordingly in the areas of mobility, health care, public safety… [Continue Reading]

  Tim Berners-Lee: social media is too powerful and the web needs regulation to avoid weaponization

  Publié: mars 12, 2018, 11:33am CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Today marks the 29th anniversary of the world wide web, and as has become traditional, its inventor has penned a letter for the occasion. In it, Sir Tim Berners-Lee calls for regulation of the web to prevent it from being "weaponized". His letter suggests that "the web is under threat," and highlights a number of problems that exist, including the digital divide, privacy, fake news and the dominance of social media. He suggests that a regulatory framework could be needed to prevent a handful of companies from "weapon[zing] the web at scale." Berners-Lee is concerned about the fact that a… [Continue Reading]
