How the Mueller report indicts social networks
In many ways, our cultural reckoning over social networks and the internet in general began at the end of 2016. Russia had waged information warfare against the United States during our presidential election, and Donald Trump won a surprising victory over Hillary Clinton. Much of that warfare took place on our social platforms, and while we will never be able to quantify their precise effect on the outcome, a forensic analysis of the election by one of our foremost political scientists concluded that Russia very likely delivered a victory to Trump.
Partisan rancor has prevented a serious investigation of Russian interference from taking place at the Congressional level. And so the world has waited for the next-best thing: the arrival of...

Uber’s self-driving unit gets $1 billion investment from SoftBank and Japan’s auto industry
Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi announced this evening a $1 billion investment from Japanese conglomerate SoftBank’s Vision Fund, car maker Toyota, and automative component supplier Denso. The news confirms an article from The Wall Street Journal published earlier this week reporting that Uber was close to securing funding for its autonomous division, called Uber Advanced Technologies Group, or UberATG.
Khosrowshahi announced the investment with a tweet, which included a photo of the chief executive alongside executives from SoftBank, Toyota, and Denso. According to the accompanying press release, the capital injection values Uber’s self-driving unit at $7.25 billion, ahead of the company’s official initial public offering likely later this...

Instagram has considered hiding the like count on people’s photos
Instagram has considered hiding the like count on photos, so audiences can’t see how many people have liked an individual post. An unreleased feature that would publicly hide like counts was spotted today by code hunter Jane Wong, who says the test states that Instagram wants “your followers to focus on what you share, not how many likes your posts get.” Only the person who posted a photo will be able to see the number of likes it’s received.
Instagram says that it has not tested the feature. In a statement to The Verge, an Instagram spokesperson said: “We’re not testing this at the moment, but exploring ways to reduce pressure on Instagram is something we’re always thinking about.”
Details of the test come just days after the I...

This $2,799 emulator is the fanciest retro game console around
Retro games keep resurfacing in all types of emulators, but Swedish artist and craftsman Love Hultén has created one that goes the extra mile if you really want a full, nostalgia-fueled experience. His newest design, called Yesterday Vision, is a handmade midcentury-inspired monitor enclosure that can play games from classic systems.
The Yesterday Vision contains a 19-inch 4:3 monitor that’s designed to have the curvature distortion of an old CRT monitor. It also has full-range loudspeakers and a built-in Raspberry Pi computer that emulates gaming systems like the SNES, NES, Genesis, NeoGeo, MAME, Atari 2600, N64, and PSX. You can also play modern games or connect your laptop to Yesterday Vision via an HDMI input on the back. It can also...

Amazon admits defeat against Chinese e-commerce rivals like Alibaba and JD.com
Amazon is shutting down its Chinese domestic e-commerce business, it told sellers on Thursday. By July 18th, Amazon.cn will no longer be open to third-party sellers, meaning it won’t compete with the massive e-commerce giants of China, including Alibaba and JD.com. Amazon still plans to let Chinese customers shop at international versions of the site, including the company’s American, British, German, and Japanese marketplaces. Amazon says it’s reevaluating its fulfillment strategy in the country to meet those needs.
Amazon tells The Verge in a statement, “Over the past few years, we have been evolving our China online retail business to increasingly emphasize cross-border sales, and in return we’ve seen very strong response from...

Why Juul and Republican lawmakers want to raise the minimum vaping age
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is pushing a new bill that would block all tobacco and vape purchases for Americans under 21 years old, according to an announcement today that was reported by Bloomberg.
In a statement today, McConnell presented the bill as a response to widespread public health risks posed by teen vaping. “For some time, I’ve been hearing from the parents who are seeing an unprecedented spike in vaping among their teenage children,” McConnell said. “In addition, we all know people who started smoking at a young age and who struggled to quit as adults. Unfortunately it’s reaching epidemic levels around the country.” McConnell says he will look to the 11 states that already have Tobacco 21 laws on the books for...

Digital publishing site Wattpad is partnering with Sony to adapt stories for Hollywood
Wattpad, the online story-sharing community for up-and-coming and established writers, has signed a “first-look” deal with Sony Pictures Television to develop new projects based on its vast catalog of uploaded stories, Wattpad announced yesterday.
With this new partnership, Wattpad will essentially give Sony a heads-up when it comes to projects that might make for a good TV series. According to Wattpad, the two companies will “work together to identify and develop popular narratives from the half a billion story uploads that have been shared on Wattpad,” and Sony will have access to data from Wattpad’s machine learning efforts that help it churn through the site’s uploads, identifying what stories have potential in other media formats.

Facebook stored millions of Instagram passwords in plain text
Facebook says it stored millions of Instagram users’ passwords in plain text, leaving them exposed to people with access to certain internal systems. The security lapse was first reported last month, but at the time, Facebook said it only happened to “tens of thousands of Instagram users,” whereas the number is now being revised up to “millions.” The issue also affected “hundreds of millions of Facebook Lite users” and “tens of millions of other Facebook users.”
Passwords are supposed to be stored in an encrypted format that allows websites to confirm what you’re entering without directly reading it. But as Krebs on Security first reported, various errors seem to have caused Facebook’s systems to log some passwords in plain text since as...

BlackBerry Messenger (yes, that BBM) is shutting down on May 31st
Clutch your old BlackBerries dear, because the consumer version of BBM is officially dying at the end of May. In a blog post, Emtek (the company that has taken over running the BBM app since 2016) has announced that it will end support for the messaging app on May 31st, citing fleeting users over the past years despite efforts to revitalize the app with features like Uber hailing and video calling.
“We are proud of what we have built to date ... The technology industry however, is very fluid, and in spite of our substantial efforts, users have moved on to other platforms, while new users proved difficult to sign on,” the company wrote in a blog. “Though we are sad to say goodbye, the time has come to sunset the BBM consumer service, and...

Never Before Seen Halloween 5 Footage Reportedly Discovered
Last year, horror fans showed up in droves to see Michael Myers return in David Gordon Green’s Halloween. The slasher flick’s success, marked by critical praise and a staggering box office intake, renewed interest in the franchise in general, with many people diving back into the fascinating and troubled production history faced by many of the films.
The official website Halloween Movies have recently directed their attention toward the numerous scenes excised from Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers. Notorious for its behind the scenes issues, the fifth Halloween movie had many sequences cut or even completely reshot to appease producers and censors, including an alternate opening featuring the supernatural revival of a deceased Michael Myers.
Following his defeat in Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, the fifth film opens one year later, with the unconscious Shape being nursed back to health by a mysterious hermit who lives in the woods outside of Haddonfield, Il. When Michael awakens, he murders the hermit and starts on a new blood-laden journey to finally kill his niece Jamie Lloyd. Rumor had it that the original opening to the movie was even darker, featuring an occult ritual and an appearance by a “Dr. Death.”
Earlier this month, Halloween Movies hinted that they’d finally found this original footage, and Don Shanks, who portrayed the Shape in Halloween 5, revealed the following about it in an interview with the website:
“(I was) placed on this stone alter, and all around (the set) were things that the production had gotten from witches, and people that sell you the occult,” Shanks recalls of the scene. “And there were scrolls and different chants and this and that. And (suspended from) the altar, right above me, was this rock that looked like a stalactite – it was on a string and it would circle. And Dr. Death was doing an incantation on me, and then he tattoos on me the Thorn rune, which is the sign of eternal life. And so he does all these incantations, and on Halloween Eve (one year later) I come back to life.
So I put the mask on and I grab Dr. Death by the throat and pick him up over my head and break his back, and then put him on the altar, and take the stalactite and I go through his chest with it. I thought it was one of my better kills. But Moustapha [Akkad] thought it was too much of the occult type thing. So they decided to shoot it differently.”
Halloween Movies also shared a photo suggesting that even more deleted footage, including death scenes deemed too violent for an R-rated film, and the original script, had been discovered. If this found footage is indeed the slashed opening, it would be huge news for Halloween fans that have waited decades to see it and we’ll be sure to keep you posted as and when we hear more.

MCU Movie Sales Increase As Fans Prep For Avengers: Endgame Release
Not only has Avengers: Endgame enjoyed some phenomenal pre-sales in the last couple of weeks, but it’s also helped boost the sales of previous Marvel titles, as fans revisit the catalogue in preparation for next week’s release.
Ticket service Fandango has announced that their video streaming platform FandangoNOW has seen a nearly 50% increase in transactions for MCU movies since Endgame tickets went on sale on April 2nd. According to a survey conducted by the site, the top five films that fans are feeling the need to (re-)watch are Avengers: Infinity War, The Avengers, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Age of Ultron and Thor: Ragnarok.
From the look of things, some people might well have listened to the advice of Endgame co-directors Anthony and Joe Russo, who said that the two to check out before going into next week’s release are Infinity War and Civil War. While the former almost goes without saying, the Russos justified the latter by arguing that the events of Civil War were the reason why Earth’s Mightiest Heroes lost to Thanos in last year’s release.
That being said, the filmmakers are also encouraging fans via social media to marathon the entire catalogue, suggesting a new Marvel movie every day for their followers to watch. But however people are choosing to brush up on their MCU history, it’s clear that Fandango is reaping the benefits.
On top of that, the ticketing site has shared another enthusiastic update on their Avengers: Endgame pre-sales, which are apparently their best for any movie up to this point in the sales cycle. Meanwhile, the feature has already managed to beat the all-time pre-sales record on Atom Tickets, and is doing similarly well overseas. We’ll find out just how many more records the film can break when it arrives in theaters on April 26th.
