G20 leaders will discuss raising taxes for big tech firms next week
[ad_1] The finance ministers are scheduled to meet in Washington, where they’ll review proposals by the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) — the group tasked with overhauling tax rules that date back to the 1920s.

Google is reportedly testing a 5G version of the Pixel 4
[ad_1] Whether or not you’ll hear about a 5G variant at Google’s October 15th event is another matter.

Android 10 phones may have to hide third-party navigation gestures
[ad_1] Companies that want to keep Android Pie’s navigation gestures can do so for updates on existing devices, but it appears that new devices won’t have that fallback.

Russian hackers modify Chrome and Firefox to track secure web traffic
[ad_1] Just why the intruders would need to do that isn’t entirely clear. If you’ve infected a system with a remote control trojan, you don’t need to patch the browser to spy on traffic. ZDNet suggested it might be a failsafe that let intruders spy on traffic for people who remove the trojan, but aren’t […]
Google’s Pixel 4 may invoke Assistant when you raise the phone
[ad_1] It’s not clear if this will be enabled by default, or how Google might prevent accidental Assistant use outside of requiring specific timing (will it inadvertently react to an ongoing conversation, for example?).
