Vietnam seeks to ban Telegram in the country by June 2
Reuters
Vietnam's technology ministry has instructed telecommunication service providers to block the messaging app Telegram for not cooperating in combating alleged crimes committed by its users and report on them to the ministry by June 2.
The document said the ministry was acting on behalf of the country's cyber-security department after police reported that 68% of the 9,600 Telegram channels and groups in the country violated the law, citing fraud, drug trafficking and "cases suspected of being related to terrorism" among the illegal activities carried out through the app.

India opens 6GHz spectrum for license-free WiFi use
In order to allow unlicensed use of technologies such as Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7, the Indian government has released draft regulations to delicense the 5925–6425 MHz segment of the 6 GHz spectrum.
Faster, low-latency Wi-Fi 6E is made possible by India's delicensing of the 6 GHz band, which also lowers internet costs, improves connectivity in rural areas, complies with international standards, and generates ₹25,000 crore in economic value. All of these factors promote innovation, competition, and digital inclusion throughout the nation.
Telecom operators are against the plan; arguing that the band should be set aside for 5G in order to comply with IMT-2020 standards, even though tech companies support it.

Mozilla is shutting down Pocket and Fakespot
Pocket will be shutting down on July 8, 2025. After that, Pocket goes into export-only mode, and all data will be deleted forever on October 8, 2025. On May 22, the app and its add-ons were taken down from stores, and new sign-ups are not allowed.
After October 8, the Pocket API will no longer work. Mozilla says that changing web habits are to blame. Annual subscribers get prorated refunds, monthly plans won't renew, and the newsletter, now "Ten Tabs", will continue on weekdays.
Mozilla is also shutting down Fakespot and Firefox's built-in Review Checker tool on June 10, 2025, due to sustainability changes.

For flagships (around $400 / 35k INR and up):
For gaming. I mean, why?:

The Browser Company Might Open Source or sell Arc
The Browser Company is considering the option of either selling or open-sourcing its Arc Browser as it pivots towards a new AI-driven browser called Dia.
Dia is designed to be more user-friendly than Arc, which the company acknowledges was often too complicated and inconsistent for the average user. Since then, Arc has only seen bug fixes and security updates, with no new features.
CEO Josh Miller pointed out a “novelty tax” problem and a lack of cohesion in Arc’s design. While there’s a strong desire among users for Arc to be open-sourced, the company is hesitant due to its dependence on the proprietary Arc Development Kit.

Apple will launch iOS 26, not iOS 19
Apple is planning to change its operating system names to be identified by year, rather than version number. So, the software versions will be iOS 26, macOS 26, iPadOS 26, watchOS 26, tvOS 26 and visionOS 26.
This will bring consistency to Apple's branding and move away from a confusing approach to customers and developers. It will be announced in WWDC on June 9.
Along with this, iOS 26 will be the biggest revamp since iOS 7, updating the style of icons, menus, apps, windows, and system buttons. The design will be loosely based on visionOS. It might add AI-powered battery management tools for iPhones as well, and change how Siri functions.
