androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-14 06:00:36

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR YouTube Music tracks listening history across devices, but so far hasn’t offered a way to resume playback directly. With YouTube Music version 8.26.51, we’re now seeing the app sync playback progress across devices.

zdnet.com Charlie Osborne 2026-01-14 05:40:16

VPNs route traffic through their server network, assigning users new IP locations and preventing tracking, targeted advertising, and data theft. VPNs are not a silver bullet for security, but the best VPN services will protect your privacy without

wired.com Ryan Whitwam 2026-01-14 09:30:00

The problem is the game ROMs on these devices, which are not entirely legal. Italian YouTuber Once Were Nerd is learning how seriously some rights holders are taking game piracy after agents from the country's Guardia di Finanza showed up to confiscate his consoles. He now says the investigation could lead to criminal charges and the end of his channel

This ‘G’ Tri-Fold Phone Bends in Ways That Make Me Uncomfortable

Darwinian evolution is speedrunning foldable phone development. “Z”-style folds from companies like the Huawei Mate XT collapse in a zig-zag pattern, exposing one side of the screen to the elements. The new alternate universe tri-fold could be Tecno’s Phantom Ultimate G Fold concept phone that literally wraps around itself like a big “G.” This actually may be the better way to do tri-folds, but Samsung would need to think long and hard about device integrity if it’s using this same design for it

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