Apparently actor Justin Long isn’t a Mac anymore.  Long, who appeared in Apple commercials with comedian John Hodgman in the late 2000s (the “I’m a Mac, I’m a PC” guys), is now starring in a series of ads for Intel, flipping the script on the campaign that made PCs look like least hip devices around.  In the new ads, Long …

Popular encrypted social media app Signal has become “unusable” for some in China, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday, suggesting that the app may have been blocked in the world’s most populous country.  Signal users in China reported issues sending or receiving messages on Monday night, according to the Journal. The issues reportedly went away when they used a virtual private …

There have been many apps and services that promise to help you organize the photos and video on your phone, make editing a snap and simplify sharing. GoPro’s updated Quik app is the latest I’ve tried, and it might be the first one I’ll actually continue using. That’s mainly because it’s fairly frictionless to use and sort of rewards you …

The Federal Communications Commission issued its largest fine in history, against Texas-based telemarketers who transmitted approximately 1 billion robocalls to sell fake health insurance policies.

After a low-key launch in the US last year, Samsung put on a comparatively high-profile virtual event this year to announce three new phones in its midrange Galaxy A series.
