Dropbox didn’t tell anyone about a giant hack for four years

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/82da693f163d0f440a7baa902a47a8bb.jpgWe get it, companies get hacked all the time. And they’re not too eager to share details about data breaches, but they ultimately have to release details about it so that affected users can protect themselves. At least, they should disclose details. But Dropbox failed to do so, hiding for no less than four years the magnitude of a data breach that may have affected up to 68 million accounts.

This video accurately explains why self-driving cars will be so awesome

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/24ef3e40256a9db4ad479bd9c2bf48a5.jpgI am evangelical about the benefits of self-driving cars, so much so that my friends will clear the room the second they hear the word LIDAR. But in my defense, self-driving cars are going to be the biggest technological innovation of this decade. Don't believe me? Just watch this. YouTube star CGP Grey does an excellent job of explaining why humans inherently suck at driving, and why self-driving cars can do it so much better. It's probably all arguments you've heard before, but the concise explanations (and cute graphics) are enough to cure the most Miata-loving sceptics. (more…) Trend…

This time the issue has an especially sinister name: touch disease. This 'disease' has cropped up on an alarming number of devices over the past few weeks, and in response, McCuneWright, a California law firm filed a class action lawsuit against Apple, requesting the company fix the affected devices.

Aside from reports that the iPhone 8 will feature a curved OLED display with an embedded home button, we’ve now heard more rumblings that the device may include an iris-scanning feature as well.

Samsung’s new Gear S3 has one feature that will kill the Apple Watch 2

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/61441f5fd6be27b22098577658ccd60e.jpgWhen it comes to smartwatches, I normally maintain that simpler is better. By that logic, I should hate Samsung's new Gear S3. It's huge, bloated, and crammed with far more tech and radios than anyone should reasonably have attached to their wrists. But thanks to the LTE radio inside and a partnership with AT&T, the Gear S3 has one killer feature that would make me choose it over a Pebble, or whatever Apple releases next.

Hands on: This is the greatest smartphone accessory I’ve ever used

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/43e1fce34cd8fd6f8c7201ecfc3227d3.jpgOnce upon a time, Samsung had an idea. Smartphones had made it so that everyone carried a camera with them everywhere they went, and those camera offered pretty decent quality. There was only so much camera tech that could be stuffed into a slim phone, though. So why not make a smartphone the size of a dedicated camera that packs the quality and features of a point and shoot cam? This was back in 2013 when Samsung was throwing spaghetti at the wall by the bucket, and the result was the Galaxy S4 Zoom. Despite its killer optics and 16-megapixel resolution, the phone wasn’t terribly popular sinc…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/dd9610c7b05bbd10ea2c5069afdb1755.jpgLenovo hasn’t gotten as much credit as it should be getting lately for innovating. The company’s new Moto Z and Moto Z Force are two of the sleekest new smartphones of the year so far, but they also feature what is almost certainly the most innovative new hardware feature we’ve seen on a smartphone this year. Dubbed Moto Mods, the phones support modular attachments that snap on and off to expand the phones’ capabilities in any number of different directions. But smartphones were just the start for Lenovo this year. On Wednesday, the company announced the new Yoga Book, a 2-in-1 hybrid device t…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/599a8fa95f1a79096bcf07be4c0bd0a7.jpgWhen all is said and done, I think that Lenovo’s Moto Z family of smartphones will end up being the most surprising and underrated handsets of 2016. There was some chatter in the rumor mill ahead of the Moto Z and Moto Z Force announcement back in July, but no one really expected the new phones to be quite as exciting as they are. The Z is the slimmest flagship smartphone in the world, the Z Force is shatter-proof, and both phones feature a stunning design along with Lenovo’s smart new Moto Mods system. Lenovo’s new phones aren’t as widely discussed as rival models for a few reasons. One is th…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/9a071169ab654dc6f1cfb209291129cc.jpgTime was, companies big and small were scrambling to launch new social networks. Back when people still talked with a straight face about dislodging Facebook from its spot atop the social food chain, and as a result we got everything from Ello to Google+ that promised us better experiences — better, of course, in comparison to a certain familiar blue app. Never mind how that did or didn’t work out. The mad dash, these days, is for a much narrower prize. From Facebook to Snapchat to much smaller and lesser known entrants, the latest social gold rush is the battle to own user messaging. “Messagi…

Apple's next-generation iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus will finally become a reality next Wednesday when Apple unveils them during its big press conference in California. We'll obviously be covering the event live on September 7th, but most of what's announced won't come as much of a surprise to eager iPhone fans who have had their eyes glued to the rumor mill over these past few months. Apple will unveil two new iPhones that feature minor design changes, more powerful guts and, according to recent rumors, a solution to one of Apple fans' biggest problem…
