Between what we hear the news, the internet, and quite possibly millions of different articles, it’s not exactly easy to know whether our private information can still be considered “private,” and it bothers some more than it does others, and with good reason.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/cb238f6d1df293fa69c5ccf8ac3a2fe1.jpgFacing significant backlash from consumers who faced a $250 dongle bill in order to upgrade to the courageous new MacBook Pro, Apple has cut the price of USB-C adapters across the board. The most necessary adapter, the USB-C to regular USB, has gone from $19 to $9. Even though it's only a drop in the bucket when you're spending upwards of $1,800 on a laptop, the price cut is at least an admission that the future is hard, and courage is expensive.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/ce4c2049c60dc5e9c9651a48a1a0b0d0.jpg Look at the image at the top of this post. The iPhone's display is completely lit on both sides of the image there, and the photos are not doctored in any way. Why does the iPhone screen look completely black on the right side? Because it has a SUPERSHIELDZ Privacy Anti-Spy Screen Protector Shield For Apple iPhone 6/6s/7 installed, which only lets you see the screen if you're staring directly at it. This means anyone sitting next to you or even behind you won't be able to see whatever you're looking at on the screen. (more…) Trending right now: 10 hidden iPhone gestures you probabl…
