The "USB killer" is dead: Apple drops FireWire support in macOS 26

techspot.com Alfonso Maruccia 2026-03-03 02:13:00

What just happened? FireWire was Apple's ambitious attempt to establish a novel connectivity technology for its computer ecosystem back in the 90s. Now, Cupertino is unceremoniously removing the standard from its modern operating system capabilities. The recently introduced macOS 26 "Tahoe" will bring a new naming scheme for Apple's operating system ecosystem, novel features, and a highly questionable Vista-like UI redesign. The upcoming release will also mark the end of official support for ou

Iran’s government says it shut down internet to protect against cyberattacks

techcrunch.com Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai 2026-03-03 06:44:19

Earlier this week, virtually everyone in Iran lost access to the internet in what was called a “near-total national internet blackout.” At the time, it was unclear what happened or who was responsible for the shutdown, which has severely limited Iranians’ means to get information about the ongoing war with Israel, as well as their ability to communicate with loved ones inside and outside of the country. Now, Iran’s government has confirmed that it ordered the shutdown to protect against Israel

What Big Tech's Band of Execs Will Do in the Army

wired.com Steven Levy 2026-03-03 16:26:42

When I read a tweet about four noted Silicon Valley executives being inducted into a special detachment of the United States Army Reserve, including Meta CTO Andrew “Boz” Bosworth, I questioned its veracity. It’s very hard to discern truth from satire in 2025, in part because of social media sites owned by Bosworth’s company. But it indeed was true. According to an official press release, they’re in the Army now, specifically Detachment 201: the Executive Innovation Corps. Boz is now lieutenant

Voi CEO says he’s open to acquiring Bolt’s micromobility business

Shared micromobility startup Voi is on the hunt for acquisitions. And on CEO Frederik Hjelm’s wishlist is Bolt, the European mobility super-app best known for ride-hailing. Not that Bolt’s micromobility business is necessarily for sale — despite talk of Voi buying the company’s scooter and bike arm.

You hear two wildly diverging narratives about AI lately. One, emanating mainly from the tech sector, is that AI is not only poised to supersede human intelligence, but is already radically changing the world and workforce.
