Happy April Fool's day! 🤡
Be careful with this day though! Exactly a year ago my assistant jokingly suggested that since I became a French citizen, I should add a blank space in my last name and become a “Du Rov”. Laughing out loud, we filled out a form to “frenchify” my name, which after a few additional touches became “Paul du Rove”.
While we soon forgot about that form, the application actually got approved and the passport reissued 🙈
Thinking about that day, I’m grateful that my assistant’s creativity didn’t extend to my Emirati passport. Otherwise you would be reading this post in “Al Dur’s Channel”.

BEWARE ⚠️: Someone is Impersonating as Official Youtube and mailing users with malicious links
Many people have reported receiving phishing emails from a fake YouTube email address that seems officially from Youtube itself because its coming from no-reply@youtube.com address which has been spoofed
The fake email will tell users that Youtube's policies have changed with respect to making money from Youtube. It tells the user to look at the changes in the document that is attached in the email and will contain a link and a password.
DO NOT fall for this scam, as it could compromise both your privacy and security.

Google Lens may get a new icon as Chrome shows off its new look.
In the latest version of Chrome Canary on Android, Google has updated the Lens icon in the Omnibox. The new iteration looks like a combination of the previous icon, which is still used in the individual app shortcut and in Google Camera, and the current icon, which is used in Google Search, Pixel Launcher and stable Chrome.

The video cards in the YouTube on Android feed get rounded corners.
In the last major UI update to YouTube, the full-width video cards were left untouched. But now that will change, as we can see in the new server experiment.
The video cards are now indented on the sides and have rounded corners, which looks more harmonious with the rest of the YouTube interface and appearance on tablets and PCs.
Thanks for the screenshot.
