The best free VPNs of 2025: Secure, safe, and fast VPNs

My top pick for free VPNs available in 2025 is Proton VPN, which, despite its limits, will suit many users who do not want to subscribe. Why we like it: The free version of Proton VPN offers many useful features that are paid for through other services and VPN subscribers. This is important when it comes to free VPN services, as it provides a measure of security and data protection that some shady services do not. After all, if your information is being sold in return for a VPN connection, this

26 of the Best TV Shows on Disney Plus

Disney Plus has become a force to be reckoned with in the streaming TV realm. Like Netflix before it, the Disney-owned content platform has become a utility within my household.

High-resolution imaging method details nerves across a mouse’s body

The cranial nerves (blue) and blood vessels (red) in the head of a mouse are revealed by a high-resolution imaging technique. Credit: M.-Y.

Here’s why you can’t rate that system app in the Google Play Store

Damien Wilde / Android Authority TL;DR Earlier this year, Google started working to implement minimalistic app listings for system services in the Play Store. These listings do not include a review section nor allow users to rate the apps. Users are now starting to see this new format for system services roll out widely. Should all app listings be created the same? At first glance, it might make sense to expect all app listings in the Play Store to have the same stuff: description, screensho

We Are Having a Very Hard Time Believing the "Shape" of Tesla's New Robotaxi Geofence Is a Coincidence

Tesla has expanded the area where its Robotaxis can operate in Austin, and it's difficult — nay, impossible — to ignore its resemblance to something unmistakably vulgar. As folks immediately pointed out online, the crudely-shaped geofence is, essentially, a bathroom graffiti-level dick drawing — and given his puerile sense of humor, there's a non-zero chance that Tesla CEO Elon Musk made it that way on purpose. Indeed, after someone posted a video showing the phallic geofence on X, the shitpos

Mark Zuckerberg Interview Derailed After His Audio Doesn’t Work

Here's Everything You Need to Know About Satellite Connectivity in Phones

The words "satellite phone" probably conjure up an image of a clunky mobile monstrosity straight out of a spy thriller. These bulky and utilitarian traditional satellite phones are typically required in remote locations where cellular networks are unavailable.

This entry-level robot vacuum left some of my expensive ones in the dust

ZDNET's key takeaways At $199, the Tapo RV20 Max is an affordable option that works surprisingly well. The RV20 Max robot vacuum features strong 5,300Pa suction, great navigation skills that don't use the bump-and-run system, and plenty of customization options for the price.
