Then tell that to the European Union. Out of the 23 services labeled as “gatekeepers” by the EU, 22 are American, plus TikTok, which is Chinese. The closest thing to a European company on that list is Booking.com, which was founded in the Netherlands but was acquired by an American company...

OAuth tokens work like keys that let different systems talk to each other, firewalls don’t really matter if the attacker already has the key. So yes, compromising one token can effectively give access to the integrated system. There are niche security startups like Astrix Security that focus...

A lot of people didn't like GPT-5, but personally I think it's a good model. The issues are: It doesn't kiss up to users like 4o does, which isn't a problem for me, but it is for a lot of people More "dry" and direct responses The model itself improved compared to 4o in that it has fewer...

Even though Google really is evil, I thought this article was terribly written. I clicked on it hoping to understand why Google is settling for $500 million with shareholders, and all I got was more of an opinion piece than anything actually informative about the case.

Speak for yourself. I’m studying computer engineering, and honestly, ChatGPT has been a lifesaver. A lot of times I just can’t figure out how a piece of code works, or I’m stuck on a math problem and have no clue how to approach the calculation. Before this, I had to dig through sites like...

Microsoft's decision to release Indiana Jones on PS5 day one is a real gut punch for Xbox sales. By making their games available on all platforms, Microsoft is undermining their own sales. Where is the exclusivity that used to draw Xbox fans? This strategy might expand their reach, but in the...

Initially, it was Palm, then Bard, followed by Gemini, and now Ultra. I'm a bit lost on distinguishing the product's name from the LLM powering it. It's an avoidable name maze, similar to the other Google products. They struggle with settling on a name and sticking with it, portraying a lack of...

I have no problem with Microsoft Edge being the default on Windows, but from the moment I change my default to any other Browser, Microsoft should respect my choice, these bugs with changing the default have happened so many times that they only a good fine can stop these guys. A lot of people...

I found this article biased, in the video description itself Google warns that latency has been reduced and Gemini outputs have been shortened for brevity. They didn't try to deceive anyone in this video, they even warned in advance that it was edited.

I had already noticed that Amazon increases prices when users are searching for something, and it was quite a coincidence to come across this article just a few days after I discovered this firsthand. Recently, I was in the market for a pair of headphones. I conducted a Google search and found a...

You dont need a Facebook Account to use Meta Quest, and it's been like this for almost a year

too bad Steam deck isnt even available here in Australia :(((

This already happens in the European Union, when you Buy a Android phone in the EU, there is a a screen choise to you to select your Browser and Search engine, and guess what? Google Search have 98% of the search engine market in the EU, and 60% of the browser market...

The truth is that ars technica readers don't like Google, if the cases went ahead everyone here in the comments would be commenting on how much Google is a monopoly, but since the cases didn't go ahead and the DOJ accumulates an unprecedented sequence of defeats again, the comments are mostly...

I believe the commission has a very weak case here, a messaging app is an essential part of a productivity suite, it's not Microsoft's fault if the entire Slack business model is just a Microsoft feature, I don't think the Microsoft has to separate Teams from office, or charge separately for...

If we go for revenue alone, Sony is the biggest gaming company in the world, after being overtaken by Tencent between 2019-2021, they are back on top in 2022. Biggest gaming companies in 2022: Playstation (26.9 Billion) Tencent (23.8 Billion) Microsoft (15.56 Billion) Nintendo (12 Billion)...

I totally disagree with the author of the article that the decline in ChatGPT use has to do with "censorship", the most sensible explanation for me, from my own experience and from the people I know, is that we are on vacation, and we don't need to use it anymore chatgpt so often, mostly to do...

Instead of trying to be a platform for everything, like Tiktok, Games, and Facebook, I believe Youtube should prioritize and enhance the experience of watching long videos. There are numerous quality of life features that could be implemented to make the viewing experience even better. If...

I have more sympathy for Sony's way of doing business than Microsoft's, although Sony also has big business outside the gaming world, it's nothing compared to the massive Microsoft business (Windows, Azure, Office, etc... ). This means that they cant buy big studios, and are very selective in...

Poorly written article in my opinion, the author did not specify the reasons why the European Union is investigating Google, All very vague: "They are a big company that collect information from their customers, and use this information to create ADS to sell to advertisers" It's all very vague...
