OnePlus Gets Banned in Germany Once Again
In August 2022, a Munich court banned Oppo and OnePlus smartphones from being sold in Germany after they failed to reach a licensing deal with Nokia for its 4G and 5G technologies. The 2yr legal battle ended in January 2024, with Oppo signing a global patent licensing agreement with Nokia & OnePlus re-entering the German market.
Now after 9 months, OnePlus is once again banned in Germany over patent dispute with InterDigital, a firm that specializes in research & development for wireless technologies, especially critical 5G patents. It claims that OnePlus has infringed upon its 5G patents & as a result, German authorities have stepped in & banned the sale of OnePlus products in the country
Currently, the only items available on the OnePlus German online store are the OnePlus Pad 2 and the OnePlus Watch 2, devices that don’t have cellular support & thus remain unaffected by the ongoing legal issues.

You probably heard about Epic's latest lawsuit against Google, which alleges they were involved in the decision to make Samsung's Auto Blocker feature be enabled by default in the latest version of One UI. (Auto Blocker, if you aren't aware, is a feature…
Google Denies Allegations in Epic Lawsuit
Recently, Epic Games sued Samsung for bydefault enabling the "auto-blocker" feature, which automatically blocks users from installing apps unless they come from “authorized sources”. Epic claims there’s NO process for any rival store to become “authorized.”
Epic also sued Google alongside alleging that Google was involved in the decision to make Samsung's Auto Blocker feature be enabled by default. However, in an interview, Epic Games CEO admitted that they DO NOT have any proof that Google & Samsung colluded and they're hoping that comes out in the legal discovery process
Google has now publicly not only denied making Samsung create the Auto Blocker feature but also denied making them turn it on by default, which is the core allegation made by Epic in its latest lawsuit.

After seeing Epic Games CEO — Tim Sweeney tweets, it should be the first time we're live witnessing a CEO going insane
Epic Games CEO claims that Find My feature is "super creepy and surveillance and should NOT exist" because when the CEO's Macbook got stolen by a kid from his car, now years after the incident, Apple still shows where the Macbook is currently located.
For this tweet, Tim Sweeney even got Community noted because acc. to him, Find My is actually illegal and finding your own device is tracking and surveillance ??? 😭💀
Now, Tim Sweeney has claimed that Apple's .DS store and Microsoft's System Volume Information are "essentially tracking malware". 😭😭
In reality, .DS store in MacOS stores metadata about how the folder’s contents should be displayed, such as Icon positions, Window size & layout preferences, file's sorting order etc. and Microsoft's System Volume information is used for system restore, indexing service, volume shadow copy etc

BREAKING: Xiaomi Plans To Stop Offering Bootloader Unlocking
Following a fake news last year related to shutting down bootloader unlocking to smartphones launched after May, 2024, now, even famous leakers are claiming that internally, Xiaomi has indeed made plans to shutdown the bootloader unlocking service for global users by the end of 2025.
For China, since the Bootloader unlocking period was over last month, it will again resume after Xiaomi 15 series global launch in 2025. Xiaomi already collects a lot of data to identify which user in China unlocked the bootloader but since that can't be done globally, Xiaomi might ultimately shut down the service for them.
If this happens, the following changes will take place on Earth:
• RIP Xiaomi federations
• People will think 1000 times before buying due to HypeOS
• Some users will finally understand that hardware-quality matters more that on-paper specs and cheap price
• NO Xiaomi buildbots

Breaking: the Judge in the Epic v Google case has just issued his final ruling, which states that Google must open up its Play Store catalog to 3P app stores and distribute those 3P app stores within Google Play.
The judge also ruled that Google can't require Google Play app billing, stop developers from telling users about other ways to pay, stop developers from linking to alternative distribution methods, and more.
These are HUGE changes, the implications of which will be massive to Google's Play Store business.
Highly recommend reading The Verge's coverage for the full breakdown!

Hacked ‘AI Girlfriend’ Data Shows Prompts Describing Child Sexual Abuse
A hacked database from AI companion site Muah.ai exposes peoples' particular kinks and fantasies they've asked their bot to engage in. It also shows many of them are trying to use the platform to generate child abuse material.

The wayback machine has been compromised
Final update and confirmations:
The compromise has been confirmed via BleepinComputer and TroyHunt. 31,000,000 users impacted. There is no confirmed information on how the site was compromised. No Threat Actor(s) have been attributed to the compromise. More information is available on their respective social media platforms. More information will probably become available in the following hours or days.
Unrelated to the defacement and compromise, Sn_darkmeta claims to have been DDoSing Internet Archive. They state they're DDoSing the website because the United States government supports Israel and The Internet Archive belongs (?) to the United States.

🚨🚨🚨SN_BLACKMETA is behind the attack on Internet Archive
The reason why they attacked Internet Archive is because acc to them, the Internet Archive is NOT a non-profit organization as it belongs to the US & they supports Israel. Thus they heavily attacked it for 5hrs continuously making the wayback machine down worldwide.
I can clearly see that the hackers are broke, mentally ill persons & needs a psychiatrist asap because their thinking is :-
" We (the world) are protesting & crying because they disabled a free service".
(Quite funny how hackers didn't know Internet Archive is a great way to preserve things for the future aka archive it.)
They also thinks that whole world is a fool because Gaza & Palestine are in wars with Israel & we are not supporting them or mourning for deaths either by wars".
We have never seen a DDoS group receive such vitrolic hatred. It's heartwarming as people from all across the planet, unite for ... hatred that hackers even disabled the comments now.

Update: the reason this existed was because Discord wanted a native app like Telegram but they cancelled the plans later after realizing official Telegram is shit & broken as well.

Google is preparing to let you run Linux apps on Android, just like Chrome OS
The company is working on a Terminal app that downloads, configures, runs, and interfaces with an instance of Debian in a VM.

Here's a demo of Android's in-development Terminal app for running Linux apps!
The Terminal app currently doesn't automatically download and configure the Linux VM for you, so the developer who sent me this had to use the LinuxInstaller app to download Debian.
(I sped the video up a bit in the middle because it takes some time to boot the VM for the first time.)

FINALLY! Chrome for Android is once again adding support for moving the address bar to the bottom.
This feature is working in the latest Canary build if you toggle the #android-bottom-toolbar flag. You can then change the address bar location in settings.
