In the new lawsuit, Proton says the iPhone maker holds a monopoly in the smartphone, app distribution, and app payment processing markets. It also compares Apple’s fees to tariffs on internet commerce, calling them “artificial and arbitrary.” The suit is looking for changes to the App Store and monetary damages,

You know the drill -- whenever you're outside, especially during the summer, you should wear sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun's UV rays. But what about wearing sunscreen indoors? Can sunlight coming in through windows still negatively affect your skin, making SPF necessary even when you're inside your home? We reached out to a dermatologist for the answer.

There's this thing about USB-C that nobody really talks about. Not the part where we all had to buy new dongles (RIP my dongle drawer, 2010-2023). The other part.

Joe Maring / Android Authority It’s been just about two weeks since Google launched Android 16, and for the most part, it’s an update that came and went without too much fanfare. I’ve been playing around with Android 16 on my Pixel 9a since the update was released, but it wasn’t until a few days ago that I finally enabled Advanced Protection — a new security feature tucked away in the Settings app. Advanced Protection enables a load of robust security features for your phone with the flick of

There's plenty of healthy eating and workout trends that come and go over the years, but one topic seems to come up again and again: Protein.

We’ve had a Denisovan skull since the 1930s—only nobody knew

The paleoanthropologists who studied the Harbin skull in 2021 declared it a new (to us) species, Homo longi. But the Harbin skull still contains enough of its original proteins to tell a different story: A few of them matched specific proteins from Denisovan bones and teeth, as encoded in Denisovan DNA.
