Danny Boyle Explains How ’28 Years Later’ Got its Creepy Poem

Before 28 Years Later’s release, you probably saw its trailers, which featured a recording of man performing a military chant alongside visuals of the film’s destroyed world and infected. That would be “Boots,” a 1903 poem by Jungle Book creator Rudyard Kipling (and performed by Taylor Holmes in 1915) inspired by the monotony of British soldiers marching hundreds of miles in southern Africa. But it’s not just in the trailers, it’s also in the film when Spike and his dad Jamie leave their isolate

Israel urges citizens to turn off home cameras as Iran hacks surveillance systems

Cutting corners: As tensions between Israel and Iran escalate, Israeli authorities are urging citizens to take an unusual but crucial step: turn off their home security cameras or change their passwords. The warning comes amid growing evidence that Iran is actively attempting to tap into private surveillance devices across Israel to gather intelligence for military operations. In the aftermath of recent Iranian missile strikes on Tel Aviv, concerns about the vulnerability of internet-connected

Fastmail replaced my Gmail and I’m never going back

Nathan Drescher / Android Authority I had the digital equivalent of an epiphany the other day. I opened my inbox and saw…email. Only email. There were no ads, no AI-generated summaries, and no prompts. It was a strange, yet welcome, feeling after years of using Gmail. Checking my inbox no longer felt like an argument with an algorithm. That’s because I switched to Fastmail earlier this year. It all began when I started distancing myself from American big tech platforms, where Google sits high

Trump Mobile promise telehealth and roadside perks, but is it worth the cost?

From businessman to politician, and now to wireless service provider? Coming way out of left field, it seems the Trump Organization is now looking to leverage the Trump name to bring phone service to its fan base. According to the Trump Organization, the company won’t directly operate Trump Mobile and is instead licensing the rights to an unnamed third party. Trump Mobile will offer just one plan, dubbed the 47 Plan, as a not-so-subtle nod to Trump’s current presidential term. The company will

Open Channel: What’d You Think of ’28 Years Later’?

For a long time, fans of 28 Days Later have held out hope for a third movie. To their surprise, Sony suddenly threw those fans a bone with the announcement 28 Years Later was happening, and what’s more, the first film’s creative duo of Danny Boyle and Alex Garland were returning to the zombie saga they began in 2002. With each trailer and peek at the film, Years has looked better and scarier. Reactions may have come surprisingly late—shortly before its release in theaters, weirdly—but despite t

Every Parent Should Know These 3 iPhone and iPad Parental Controls

As a parent of three young kids with limited screen time, the prospect of handing them their very own iPad or iPhone sends me into an anxiety-induced spiral. The prospect of having to micromanage screen time (and the overstimulated meltdowns that follow), plus trying to protect them on social media and against all the other horrors lurking online, is enough to make me want to swear off screens altogether. But I'm also a realist and know I can't fend off screens forever. In fact, their peak devic

5 carriers you should sign up for instead of T-Mobile

Joe Maring / Android Authority If you’re shopping for a new cell phone carrier in the US, there’s a good chance you’re considering T-Mobile. As one of the most well-known cell service providers in the country, it’s likely at the top of your shopping list. But before you pull the trigger on T-Mobile, I’d advise you to first consider the alternatives. Between lackluster new plan offerings and the removal of long-beloved features like taxes and fees bundled into monthly prices, T-Mobile has seen b
