Comenzamos analizando los fuertes rumores sobre el esperado iPhone plegable, el tema principal que domina nuestra conversación. Explicamos cómo las informaciones contradictorias sobre posibles retrasos en su fabricación y su anuncio oficial en septiembre pueden ser realmente compatibles. Además, detallamos su hipotético diseño, que apostaría por un formato más ancho y achatado para asemejarse a un iPad Mini al abrirse, y debatimos sobre su elevado precio, cercano a los 2.500 euros, junto con los posibles sacrificios técnicos en el dispositivo, como la ausencia de Face ID o de la tecnología MagSafe.También valoramos las filtraciones sobre el desarrollo de nuevos formatos físicos, como un colgante inteligente para interactuar con la IA o un anillo enfocado en la monitorización deportiva, aunque cuestionamos su viabilidad y necesidad real en un mercado donde los AirPods y el Apple Watch ya acaparan el uso diario.Finalmente, profundizamos en la accidentada y lenta llegada del protocolo de mensajería RCS a los iPhone, y advertimos sobre los grandes obstáculos técnicos que aún debe superar. Analizamos la resistencia histórica de las operadoras de telefonía a invertir en esta infraestructura.

For this week's Tech Takeover, Jess Kelly, Newstalk's Technology Correspondent joins Shane to discuss Instagram's decision to scrap end-to-end encryption with its private message service…

Meta s'apprête à modifier une fonction de sécurité importante sur Instagram. Après un peu plus de trois ans d'existence, le chiffrement de bout en bout des messages privés va disparaître de la plateforme. L'entreprise a annoncé que cette option ne serait plus disponible à partir du 8 mai 2026.Pour comprendre ce changement, il faut rappeler ce qu'est le chiffrement de bout en bout, souvent abrégé en E2EE, pour End-to-End Encryption. Ce système garantit que seuls l'expéditeur et le destinataire peuvent lire un message. Même l'entreprise qui gère le service, en l'occurrence Meta, n'a théoriquement aucun accès au contenu échangé. Cette technologie est déjà bien connue des utilisateurs de WhatsApp, autre application du groupe Meta, où elle est activée automatiquement. Sur Instagram, la situation était différente : le chiffrement existait bien, mais il fallait l'activer manuellement pour chaque conversation. Résultat, selon Meta, très peu d'utilisateurs ont réellement utilisé cette option.Dans un message publié sur ses pages d'assistance, la plateforme confirme donc que les conversations chiffrées ne seront plus prises en charge après le 8 mai 2026. Les utilisateurs seront invités à télécharger leurs messages ou leurs contenus multimédias s'ils souhaitent les conserver avant la disparition de cette fonctionnalité. Meta explique que ceux qui souhaitent continuer à bénéficier d'un chiffrement fort pourront se tourner vers WhatsApp, où cette protection reste active par défaut.Derrière cette décision se trouve aussi un autre enjeu : la modération des contenus. Sans chiffrement de bout en bout, les plateformes peuvent analyser les messages pour détecter certains contenus illégaux. Parmi les priorités évoquées figurent notamment les abus sexuels sur mineurs, un problème régulièrement signalé sur les réseaux sociaux. Depuis plusieurs années, les autorités publiques et les régulateurs demandent aux grandes entreprises technologiques d'intensifier leurs efforts dans ce domaine. Certains estiment en effet que le chiffrement total peut parfois créer des espaces de communication impossibles à surveiller, susceptibles d'être utilisés pour des activités criminelles. Cette décision illustre donc un débat plus large qui traverse le monde du numérique : comment concilier la protection de la vie privée des utilisateurs avec les exigences de sécurité et de lutte contre les contenus illégaux.

Google Maps is getting a new look Google Maps is getting it's biggest update in over a decade with the launch of “Immersive Navigation”. The new view places you in a 3D space with a view of the road features, buildings and terrain around you – almost making it look like a video game. It has smart zooms and transparent buildings to give you a better look at what's coming up on your drive, including potentially tricky merges and turns, and better highlighting of things like traffic lights and pedestrian crossings. It starts in the US, and will roll out to iOS and Android devices, and CarPlay and Android Auto. A surprise reversal from Meta – Instagram chats will no longer be encrypted From May 8th, chats will no longer be encrypted. You'll have until then to download them, or I assume they'll be deleted by Meta. Meta's decision to dismantle the encryption feature comes against the backdrop of increasing concerns surrounding child sexual abuse material (CSAM) online. By eliminating end-to-end encryption, the company will be able to monitor direct messages and calls on Instagram for any content relating to CSAM, grooming, or related harassment. There are lots of open questions and I'm surprised this hasn't been picked up by more outlets. What was behind the move? Are laws such as the EU's Chat Control regulation and the UK's Online Safety Act 2023 pushing them away from E2E encryption? Messenger just got E2E encryption – so what happens to that now? WhatsApp has had it for some time, and is a core feature of the product – will that also go? Could this be to do with how the services are classified under various international laws? Some odd things are happening at Meta. They are bringing Messenger back inside Facebook, effectively killing it as a standalone product and having more like the FB Messages of old.

In a move that bucks the entire industry trend, TikTok has confirmed it will not implement end-to-end encryption (E2EE) for direct messages on its platform — arguing that E2EE would make users less safe. We break down what’s really going on: the child safety argument, the privacy counterargument, the geopolitical questions surrounding ByteDance, and what it all means for TikTok’s 1 billion+ users.

-Over five days in December 2025, more than 200 simulated "grid events" tested a London data center's ability to adjust its energy use on the fly. In each simulated grid event, the data center successfully adjusted its energy use to the requested level, reducing power draw by up to 40% -Meta has signed an AI licensing deal with News Corp that will allow the Meta AI maker to use content from The Wall Street Journal and other brands in its chatbot responses and for training of its AI models. -TikTok said that implementing the technology would prevent its safety teams or law enforcement from being able to read messages if needed. The ByteDance-owned app framed it as a deliberate decision, made in an effort to keep users, especially younger ones, safe on its platform. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this Bible study with Rev. Roland Anang, we explore a powerful kingdom mystery: truth is spiritually encrypted—and only the Spirit can decode it. Just as end-to-end encryption protects messages from third parties, the Word of God is spirit-to-spirit communication. Without the Holy Spirit, Scripture becomes mere literature, preaching becomes poetry, and church becomes routine. Drawing from scriptures like Zechariah, John, Daniel, Acts, Romans, and Revelation, this message unveils why many hear sermons but are not transformed. The difference is not intelligence, eloquence, or grammar—it is spiritual activation. The Spirit empowers both the preacher to encode truth and the believer to decode it. When revelation comes, change is immediate. When revelation is absent, we remain informed but unchanged. This episode is a call to tune your spiritual antenna, lay aside pride and cultural filters, and receive the engrafted Word with meekness—so you can truly hear what the Spirit is saying.

You would think that for such an important concept as end-to-end encryption there's be some agreement on exactly what it means. Sadly, not so. There's the correct definition, and then there's the marketing definition. One protects you, the other not so much.

In late April 2024, police chiefs from the UK's National Crime Agency and 32 European countries issued a statement expressing their concerns about the use of end-to-end encryption by instant messaging services like WhatsApp. The statement recognised that E2E encryption protects users' personal data, but emphasised that it also prevents authorities from identifying suspicious or illegal activities. And, as we'll get to in just a moment, encryption doesn't always guarantee full privacy for users. What does "end-to-end encryption" actually mean in concrete terms? Does that mean all my data is protected when I send a message then? What's the best way to stay safe and secure then?

In response to the compromise of telecommunication companies by the Chinese hacker group Salt Typhoon, senior officials from the FBI and CISA recommended that American citizens use encrypted messaging apps to minimize the chances of their communications being intercepted. This marks a departure in law enforcement's position on the use of encrypted communications. Susan Landau, Professor of Cyber Security and Policy in Computer Science at Tufts University, and Alan Rozenshtein, Associate Professor of Law at the University of Minnesota Law School and Research Director and Senior Editor at Lawfare, sat down with Lawfare Senior Editor Eugenia Lostri to talk about what the recent FBI recommendation in favor of the use of encrypted messaging apps means for the “Going Dark” debate.

In late April 2024, police chiefs from the UK's National Crime Agency and 32 European countries issued a statement expressing their concerns about the use of end-to-end encryption by instant messaging services like WhatsApp. The statement recognised that E2E encryption protects users' personal data, but emphasised that it also prevents authorities from identifying suspicious or illegal activities. And, as we'll get to in just a moment, encryption doesn't always guarantee full privacy for users. What does "end-to-end encryption" actually mean in concrete terms? Does that mean all my data is protected when I send a message then? What's the best way to stay safe and secure then?

#230: In today's digital age, it's no secret that relying solely on passwords for security is no longer an effective solution. We all understand the risks associated with using just passwords, but the question remains: what other alternatives do we have at our disposal?

While this new feature will enhance data privacy and security for those users who choose to opt in, it may create additional challenges for law enforcement to obtain evidence in criminal investigations.To discuss the implications and potential impact of this new security feature, Lawfare senior editor Stephanie Pell sat down with Riana Pfefferkorn, research scholar at the Stanford Internet Observatory. They discussed the costs and benefits to users who may choose to opt in to this feature, how Apple's choice to offer this feature plays into a broader conflict known as the Crypto Wars, and how this feature relates to another part of Apple's announcement where it indicated that it would not be scanning all iPhones for child sexual abuse material before images were backed up to iCloud.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.
