Google is cancelling subnoscription for those who used VPN workarounds for cheaper YouTube Premium
YouTube Premium Subnoscription is priced at different rates in different countries to better accommodate the purchasing power of the local currency and align with consumer expectations.
For example, in the US it costs 14$ per month while in India its 1.5$ per month
Thus, some users have used VPNs to buy YouTube Premium at cheaper rates, but it appears that Google is cracking down on such subnoscriptions and canceling them.
Several YouTube Premium subscribers have had their Premium membership randomly canceled.
However, the common thread between these cancelations is that the users used a VPN workaround to subscribe to Premium at a cheaper rate than what is available for their home market.
Redditors who have contacted customer service mention that their cancelation is because the user “moved” to a different location than the one they signed up from.

Google no longer developing Material Web Components
MWC offered a library of Material 3 components — Button, FAB, Icon button, Checkbox, Chips, Dialog, Divider, Elevation, Focus ring, List, Menu, Progress indicators, Radio, Ripple, Select, Slider, Switch, Tabs, and Text field — that developers could use on websites.
Earlier this month, the team announced (h/t Artem Russakovskii) that MWC has entered maintenance mode and will no longer see updates with all future plans abandoned.
The original team is “investigating ways to continue development of new features and components, including identifying new maintainers.”

Cancelled Google Pixel Fold Prototype
Here's your first look at cancelled Google Pixel Fold, codenamed "Pipit".
(Images quality are quite bad since they were first posted on XDA but were later deleted)
If “pipit” were to be released, it would’ve come a few months after the Pixel 6 series, so obviously, its specs are a generation behind compared to the current Pixel Fold codenamed "Felix"
Pipit Specifications
Resolution: 1080x2100 px
SoC: Google Tensor G1
Modem: Exynos 5123
• 12MP main (IMX 363, OIS) + 12MP UltraWide (IMX 386)
• NO Telephoto camera
• 8MP outer (IMX 355) + 8MP inner front (IMX 355)
Meanwhile, Felix Specs:
• 1080x2092 px resolution
• Google Tensor G2 SoC
• Exynos 5300 Modem
• 48MP main (IMX 787, OIS) + 12MP UltraWide (IMX 386)
• 11MP Telephoto camera (Samsung 3J1)
• 11MP outer (Samsung 3J1) + 8MP inner front (IMX 355)
Interestingly, Google also developed a prototype version of the device with support for stylus input. Unfortunately, the idea was eventually scrapped.

Google Pixel 9 Series battery details leaked along with a new Pixel charger
The NCC regulatory (Taiwanese FCC Edition) filing has leaked, revealing Pixel 9 series battery sizes, charging speeds and a brand-new 45 W Google-branded charging brick (model GW8L7)
Battery Capacity (typical)
Pixel 9 and 9 Pro: 4558mAh
9 Pro XL: 4942mAh
Pixel 9 Pro Fold: 4560mAh (1183mAh + 3377mAh)
The NCC reports also reveal new charging speeds. However, the tests only reveal an approximate charging speed, not an exact value.
For eg, report says Pixel 9 Pro Fold will support 32.67W charging, so It is safe to assume the device will support at least 35W
Additionally, all models of Pixel 9 series is reported to feature an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor this time which is an upgrade from optical fingerprint reader used by previous Pixels. The specific unit used is Qualcomm’s 3D Sonic Gen 2 (QFS4008) — the same exact model as the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra.
