Surprise: The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip’s ultra-thin folding ‘glass’ scratches like plastic (by @napilopez) https://t.co/EUJX4352JO

@9to5Google @NexusBen Spend more money to make it less convenient to use my phone, with a bonus of a screen crease? Tough decision.

@arstechnica @RonAmadeo So, not really essential.

@Recode Less competition and higher rates! Yay!

@AvisInnovation @chriselliotts @Forbes Is “innovation” a euphemism for exploiting customers for even more unexpected fees?

@sonic Imagine doing this with cable! Cable companies are so embarrassed by their upload speeds, they’re buried in fine print.

For example, @Xfinity claims to be the “fastest,” yet uploads for their 1,000 Mbps service? Just 35 Mbps! And it’s hidden in the network management fine print.

@futureshift @PCMag Perhaps turning off the annoying auto playing of previews can help with that.

[Geek𝘚𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘵 @GeekSlant]

@GetSpectrum @SHO_Homeland Never get service that buries non-teaser rates in fine print.

Never get internet service where the uploads are absurdly slower than downloads.

Never support a company that fights net neutrality.

Never support a company that fights to make competition illegal.

@briantong It’s called Unpacked, so maybe they’re just going to show an unboxing?

@futureshift Correction: Apple was fined for not disclosing updates would slow down people’s iPhones.

[Geek𝘚𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘵 @GeekSlant]

@9to5mac @benlovejoy Apple fined for not disclosing that iOS updates 10.2.1 and 11.2 were “likely to slow down the operation of their device.”

No matter how many copyright infringement suits you file, you have to be able to prove each one. Copyright troll Strike 3 Holdings ordered to pay $47,777 when it couldn't. https://t.co/HJwW3epQ3i
