LG Now Says AirPlay 2 and HomeKit Support Are Coming to 2018 TVs After All

LG has renewed its plan to bring AirPlay 2 and HomeKit support to 2018 TV models after backtracking on its promise in late August.

Back in April, following a petition, LG announced that its 2018 UK/SK series and OLED B8-Z8 series televisions would get AirPlay 2 and HomeKit support by October 2020.

However, on August 26th, LG tweeted:

Apple to Launch 6.1-inch iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro Ahead of 5.4-inch and 6.7-inch Models [Report]

Apple will reportedly release its next generation iPhones in two stages with the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 and the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Pro arriving first, according to a DigiTimes report. The company is expected to launch four new models this year including lower end 5.4-inch and 6.1-inch models and higher end 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch models.

The new iPhone lineup may arrive in two stages, with two 6.1-inch models in the first and another two 6.7- and 5.4-inch devices in the second, said the sources, noting that shipments of SLP mainboards for the 6.1-inch models were kicked off in July and those for the 6.7- and 5.4-inch ones began in the second half of August.

The site also notes that SLP (substrate-like PCB) suppliers have been ramping up shipments of boards for the next generation devices since July-August, despite reports that the new iPhones will debut later than normal.

Italian Watchdog Confirms Third Antitrust Inquiry into Apple

Italy's antitrust regulator has today opened another inquiry into Apple for allegedly improper commercial practices with regards to cloud computing services (via Reuters).

The investigation will also look into the practices of Google and Dropbox, in addition to Apple. The L'Autorit Garante della Concorrenza e del Mercato (AGCM) did not release further information or state how long the investigation would take, and Apple has yet to comment on the matter.

"The proceedings relate to alleged improper commercial practices and the possible inclusion of unfair clauses in contract conditions," the AGCM said in a statement.

The investigation is the third by the AGCM into Apple. In July, the AGCM began scrutinizing Apple and Amazon over allegations that the two companies blocked the sale of Apple and Beats devices to resellers in order to stifle competition. Each investigation is separate and managed irrespective of other ongoing investigations.

A previous AGCM probe looked into the company for iPhone battery slowdowns, which the antitrust watchdog said was a form of planned obsolescence. It subsequently demanded a 10 million euro fine from Apple as a sanction.

What Would Happen If All Personal Data Leaked at Once?

Subconsciously, on some level, we’re all waiting for it: the leak that wrecks society and confirms what we all know already, namely that the mass transfer of our inmost secrets/shames to Facebook, Google, et. al. was never not going to end in flames. Who among us will emerge looking halfway human, let alone “good,”…
