  Samsung Chromebook Plus V2 (LTE) coming soon -- a great Microsoft Surface alternative

  Publié: octobre 12, 2018, 7:46pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Windows 10 has been a dumpster fire lately, but thankfully, Microsoft's OS stranglehold on the consumer PC business is dramatically diminishing. These days, many consumers would be better served by purchasing a MacBook or Chromebook rather than a laptop running the less-secure Windows.

  As trust in Google wanes, interest in privacy-focused search engine DuckDuckGo soars

  Publié: octobre 12, 2018, 3:00pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Google has long been eyed with suspicion, and incidents such as covering up potential data leaks does nothing to help.

One beneficiary of this shunning of Google is DuckDuckGo. The privacy-focused search engine has enjoyed a 50 percent surge in usage over the last year, and it can now boast a new record of 30 million daily searches.
