UK court rules Google must face lawsuit over Safari privacy
[ad_1] Google told the Financial Times that it intended to appeal the reversal to the country’s Supreme Court.

A necessary update after a rough start
[ad_1] With iOS 12 last year, Apple’s big theme was stability. It’s not like there were no new features, but the real draw was that older devices might run a little better. This time is, a little different. iOS 13 is heavier on the new additions, perhaps to the detriment of its overall stability. iOS […]
