Apple TV’s Cape Fear remake turns it into a paranoid tech thriller

Cape Fear has always been a thriller about paranoia. And in 2026 there are few things less trustworthy than technology. Apple TV’s recent remake of Cape Fear is “inspired” by the 1991 film of the same name (Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg even returned as executive producers on the project), which itself is a remake […]

Amazon’s short story collections are one of the best reasons to own a Kindle

Over the last few years, I’ve gradually shifted away from ebooks. It’s been part of a general return to physical media, an attempt to create a deeper sense of ownership over the art I love and collect. A Kindle is obviously more convenient than a paperback: It’s tiny, holds a huge library, and you can […]

What’s the catch with the Apple Upgrade program?

Apple’s new Upgrade program is here, allowing you to lease select models of iPhones, iPads, Macs, and Watches with a relatively low monthly payment. The company promises you won’t pay more than the full price of the device over the course of the one- to three-year lease, and in some cases, you’ll pay hundreds of […]

The US government just banned Roombas

When the Trump administration announced yesterday that it was banning “advanced robotic devices” from entering the United States, the headlines were all about humanoids.

We’re running out of reasons to ignore AI safety

Earlier this month, OpenAI gave several of its AI models a task: complete a test designed to measure their cybersecurity capabilities. It put the systems in a sandboxed environment without an internet connection and set them off to work. What happened next is almost laughably silly – but also, as Adam Gleave, cofounder and CEO […]

Is it illegal to trick the US government into wiping your phone during a questionably legal search?

A Georgia man was charged with a felony for allegedly wiping his phone while being questioned by Customs and Border Protection. Samuel Tunick had something in common with others who have had their devices searched at airports: He was an activist.

Logitech will pull a Nintendo — only European mice will come with replaceable batteries

In June, Nintendo announced a new version of the Switch 2 that should let you easily replace its battery pack – but only for Europe. Logitech will do much the same. User-replaceable batteries will be the law in Europe in February 2027, but instead of bringing them to the rest of the world, Logitech plans […]

Logitech’s handheld plans are on ice — don’t expect a G Cloud 2 soon

Logitech’s new gaming boss, Robin Piispanen, tells me he likes the idea of gaming handhelds. “It’s such a charming value proposition,” he says, as we sip iced vanilla lattes at my local cafe. But he’s not building one right now. He’s not sure when or if Logitech should try again, after its underwhelming experiment with […]
