Google is working on a UI overhaul for Android
Google is overhauling Android’s UI as part of its Material 3 Expressive design. Status bar icons (Wi-Fi, mobile data, aeroplane mode, battery) are updated, and panels have a blurred background instead of solid black. The brightness slider is redesigned, and a split Quick Settings/notifications panel might arrive later.
The blur effect also appears in the app drawer, Recents menu, and PIN screen (along with dynamic-colored dots). The date/weather placement in the lock screen is changed, and a compact notification shelf is added. Volume sliders are thinner with distinct handles, and the media switcher is redesigned as well.
The Settings app now has colourful icons, menu items within cards, and subpage arrows. Pixel Launcher has new icon shapes like “four-sided cookie” and “complex clover.”

Apple’s VP of Finance Alex Roman lied under oath in a court of law. Apple knew this and did not comply with its legal obligation to correct the record. The matter has now been referred to the US Attorney for criminal investigation. Roman could literally be sent to jail for this, with Apple also subject to criminal sanctions.

Microsoft makes all new accounts passwordless by default
Microsoft has announced that all new personal accounts will be "passwordless by default." This replaces traditional passwords with alternatives like passkeys, biometrics, one-time codes, Microsoft Authenticator, etc. to secure accounts against phishing, brute-force attacks, etc.
Once the users are signed in, they will be prompted to enroll passkey. Existing users can delete their password by visiting the account settings.

This simplified experience gets you signed in faster and in our experiments has reduced password use by over 20%

Firefox could be doomed without a Google search deal
Mozilla’s CFO has said that Firefox’s future will be at risk if the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) restricts Google’s search monopoly. Google’s payments for the default search engine on Firefox make up about 85% of Mozilla’s revenue.
Losing this revenue means Mozilla would be forced to make drastic cuts, which could "put Firefox out of business," along with other nonprofit efforts like open-source web tools.

Losing this revenue means Mozilla would be forced to make drastic cuts, which could "put Firefox out of business," along with other nonprofit efforts like open-source web tools.
Without the revenue, Mozilla and other small, independent browsers may be forced to scale back operations and cut support for critical projects like Gecko, the only remaining browser engine competing with Google’s Chromium and Apple’s WebKit.
