German law prohibits data sharing scheme between Facebook and WhatsApp & Xiaomi presents two new smartphones and is facing Apple and Samsung

German law prohibits data sharing scheme between Facebook and WhatsApp

The German authority for data protection ordered Facebook to eliminate all data collected on German WhatsApp users. According to the local authority, the German law prevents the sharing of data between platforms.

After announcing sharing WhatsApp user data with Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg is now grappling with the first legal constraint to the scheme.

In a statement issued Tuesday, the German authority for data protection says the plan violates national law of digital privacy and orders the social network delete all the data already collected the German WhatsApp users.

According to Commissioner Hamburg for data protection, Johannes Caspar, "This order protects nearly 35 million users" that, to date, have not expressly authorized and necessary for the storage of data across platforms.

It is recalled that, with the new framework for sharing data between WhatsApp and Facebook, the social network is empowered to collect phone numbers from messaging app. An authorization, says Facebook, can help create more targeted advertising experience and more appropriate friends suggestions.

The partnership has been under fire from users and other regulators of privacy, especially in Europe. Earlier this month, Margrethe Vestager, European commissioner for competition, confessed that he had several questions to ask Facebook following this same scheme.

McLaren denies rumor that Apple wants to buy the company

After having emerged today the rumor that Apple was in talks to acquire McLaren, making sure their entry into the car market, with production of its "iCar", now comes the denial by the British car manufacturer.

After all that truth exists in what has been put forward by the Financial Times?

McLaren - does Apple want to buy this company?

According to McLaren, it is totally false rumor that put Apple in buying position of the company created in 1963 by New Zealander Bruce McLaren driver. According to the denial, the company states that there are no talks with Apple or to acquire this car manufacturer even to make any partnership. The words of company managers, breaks down the news today advanced by the Financial Times and later confirmed by The New York Times.

We confirmed that McLaren is not in talks with Apple respectively to any potential investment

If McLaren was peremptory to disprove, on the side of Apple, as always about the rumors, he did not comment yet.

McLaren is a renowned brand in the automobile sector which has grown substantially in the bet made in Formula 1. In addition to this its participation in F1, the company has grown in its road car division, with their supercars and also by investing in hybrid McLaren P1. This company also has a large consulting division, as well as a large group of technologies which allows providing equipment to other brands. No doubt that before his philosophy of market and operating characteristics, this would be a good acquisition or investment by the Cupertino company.

The declaration of the McLaren seems to convey a definite fact, despite the fact that the two newspapers have confirmed that there are ongoing talks. According to what was said, it is very unlikely that there is no longer a business cooperation. McLaren is a private company and does not have the same disclosure requirements as a public company, so if the talks were to take place at higher levels, it is possible (though unlikely) that the talks are denied to the team relations public McLaren.

Will Apple acquiring McLaren would succeed in the industry of electrical and autonomous cars?

Apple bet more on the photo

One of the trends we have seen grow in recent years in the smartphone segment is the bet on the photo. Apple also strengthened its arguments in this area to enable the new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus with innovative attributes within the segment.

With this release, Apple also brings the "Portrait" feature, which adds diversity to users of iPhone 7 Plus when it comes to photography. This mode allows users to take advantage of the two chambers and create pictures with greater depth of field and blur effects in the back, making them more realistic with the interpretation of our gaze.

IOS 10 was described by Apple as the largest ever version of iOS, where the number of entered features broke all previous releases. A redesigned lock screen, the SIRI SDK that enables third party applications to control by voice from this Apple's assistant, a fully the reviewed Messages app, a Home button with more features and new jobs in the area of ​​applications, are the guarantees to be more than 100 new discoveries in this version of iOS.

The "Portrait" mode for the camera of the iPhone 7 Plus, which was revealed in the last keynote, in fact did not appear in the official version of iOS 10 launched on the 13th of this month. Reportedly, it would not be ready yet.

The portrait mode is designed to mimic the type of depth of field images that can be achieved with DSLR quality machines. This mode highlights a subject in front of the image and blurs the background superficially, to increase the concentration in the photo key point.

To achieve this effect, which is also implicit in the way we humans see, the iPhone 7 Plus brings a processor that checks the scene where the cameras are pointing, using techniques developed to recognize people in the images, in order to highlight the "reason" principal without the blur, with the rest of the scene. After the software that Apple has developed to make this work, the processor creates a depth map of the image of the two cameras simultaneously, keeping people in focus of the moment captured in the photo.

According to TechCrunch, the portrait feature Apple was built on technology acquired from LinX company. The Portrait mode is using a 56 mm lens to capture the image as the wide-angle lens perspective gathers data to build depth map and dividing the image into layers.

This portrait mode appears along the ways that already exist: Video, Photo, Panorama, etc ... and brings the Live Preview option. As it is in beta, there are still details to adjust for the best result is not always achieved.

More versions beta ...

Taking advantage of this release, Apple also released a new version for the Apple Watch, the watchOS 3.1 beta 1, the new MacOS Sierra 10.12.1 Beta and still tvOS 10.0.1.

Although less publicized than in the U.S.A., American football begins to be increasingly known in the old continent. The last few years have seen a growth in the number of practitioners and enthusiasts. For this very contributed one of the most popular sports franchise video games. Developed by Electronic Arts for EA Sports, the franchise Madden NFL has existed since 1988 - and its original name John Madden Football.



Madden NFL 17 is the latest release of this franchise and promises to bring more fans to the sport. We played a few games, experiencing the different game modes and let you our impression of a game that promises to be one of the best of the year.

After Madden NFL 25, whose reception was not expected, the franchises of the following years - including Madden NFL 15 and Madden NFL 16 - managed to get the series back on track. Madden NFL 17 is presented as the natural follow-up to this improvement. The presented graphics are absolutely fine, the menus are well designed and are extremely intuitive.

When starting the game, the player is taken to a tutorial - which is presented in a format similar to the skill games FIFA franchise - where you can learn the basic rules of the sport, as well as to move on the pitch, the block opponents and grab the ball using different techniques. the basic concepts relating to the roles of the various players in a game, as well as the concepts for each of the different possible configurations are also explained.

During the games, we have also provided a number of visual indicators, including power windows when we kick the ball or the indication of the players who can pass - each command button corresponds to a different player.

For those who do not know, or are not used to this franchise, the franchise mode is a completely new way that allows us to fully manage the team. The well-designed and intuitive interface makes it easy for us to task, making us recommendations on which players to buy, sell or promote, which allows us to not spend as much time involved in all the paperwork.

The player can also enable the Moment Play option. With this option only we have direct action at certain times of the game, controlling only the most important plays of each game, greatly reducing the total time of each meeting. Thus, using this option, each player will have only direct intervention in the most offensive plays of his team which, for those who prefer defensive moments, it may seem that the defense was left aside. Nothing wrong because the defending team was greatly improved especially with regard to artificial intelligence: the various players of our defensive line always try to look for the best position to counter the opponent's moves without ruining the formation of the team itself.

With regard to the presentation of the game and graphics, there is really nothing to point. The work is excellent. Every time we start a game, it is easy to forget us that this is not a television broadcast such realism given to the game. The various stages are designed in sublime form and players of the various teams are very detailed.

The movements of the various players are also recreated perfectly. Since ball reception to the clashes between players, the field in realism turns Madden NFL 17 an authentic football simulation.

But there, in the midst of so many good things, a detail that - albeit minor - could improve a little and contribute to a better gaming experience. We refer to the waiting time or the loading of games either in loading menus. Resolving this issue, Electronic Arts transform this game into what would be the most complete football simulation ever.

We sure going to spend some time playing this game.

Microsoft has removed the YouTube Windows Apps store

The creation of Google's applications for Microsoft's mobile ecosystem is virtually nonexistent. The applications that exist are mostly the result of Microsoft's work, which has slowly passed to the developers responsible for creating them.

But a cleansing that is taking place, Microsoft decided to remove from your application store official YouTube app, which was developed in partnership with Google.

The YouTube app designed for Windows Phone has a long history and which involved some disputes between Microsoft and Google. Initially created by Microsoft, quickly crashed by API changes made by Google. Joining forces, Microsoft and Google have managed to create then a new version, which was quickly abandoned by both parties.

With a clean running in Windows applications store where you want to remove applications that are abandoned and have no updates a few years ago, Microsoft decided now remove (their) YouTube application.

Given the limitations of this application, due to the own YouTube already provides on its website and applications in other systems, is no stranger to Microsoft option to remove this application from your store. Probably this was also an application already few active users and therefore will not be missed.

With an already varied range of applications dedicated to YouTube in its application store, Microsoft's decision is not unreasonable and is easily justified.

The Mytube app! It is an excellent example of a YouTube support application that is already present throughout the Microsoft ecosystem, having been developed in order to also be used on Windows 10, Surface Hub and even in HoloLens.

This "cleansing" Microsoft is being done consciously and without regard to companies or developers. As you can see with this decision, no matter the developer or company that supports them.

A contrasting value with a rise of nearly 30% that technology shares have been registered this year in the South Korean market.

This is, moreover, the largest decrease since the beginning of September, when the company announced the collection program of Note 7 a timing that can be justified by the entry of various entities in the constraints of range the use of smartphone. Recently, the Consumer Product Safety Commission of the United States denounced the illegality of the sale of equipment in the country and several airlines have publicly advised against the transport of Note 7 in aircraft.

The problem that affected the Note 7 batteries has spared the Samsung some unpleasantness "short term" as those that are currently happening but, will not impact the more distance. The readiness in response to the situation is one of the arguments in favor of the South Korean manufacturer. 

"At the moment the problem may influence the choice of who is torn between the phone from Samsung and the Apple phone, but it's a timely question. Apple itself had in the past problems with the antenna of the iPhone. "

The technology of Cupertino may be reassessing their ambitions in the autonomous car market. The alleged cuts that the company has made this project suggest a change in strategy for an increasingly competitive segment.

It seems that soon will not be seen cars with the mark of the apple to ride roads. The information is advanced by the New York Times and indicate that Apple has fired dozens of people your project "Titan", the code name given to the project that would develop cars that drive themselves.

Despite the resources that the company awarded to this program, has been unable to achieve the desired goals, according to the US publication. However, it is noted that a precise analysis of the progress that Apple has been doing in this area is not possible, due to chronic secrecy so characteristic of the Cupertino technology.

According to the NYT's sources, Apple is telling employees that the layoffs are part of a restructuring of the "Titan".

The market for autonomous cars is a market on the rise, where multiple technologies are seeking a presence. Google is a case in point, as an autonomous car prototype built and several realized and others in progress tests.

Microsoft prepares to end Lumia brand?

Nokia's purchase by Microsoft had a very specific idea and that has been treated in recent years. Gain knowledge and be able to brand implanted in the market quickly.

Now that this goal is fulfilled, is Microsoft's time to move forward and apparently the first steps are already being taken. The Lumia brand to disappear very soon.



There are several steps that Microsoft has taken in recent times and take for granted that their Lumia smartphones will disappear, giving rise to a change that Microsoft had announced a few months ago.

Lumia disappeared from Microsoft's page

The first of these steps took place last week and despite being simple and insignificant, and shows the company's willingness to put into the background this your smartphone brand.

When acceded to the North American page of Microsoft we no longer have present any reference to Lumia and their smartphones. Just inside the Microsoft store it is possible to have access to the equipment it sells. This measure was extended to some other official sites from Microsoft.

The constant low prices for Lumia

As part of Microsoft's strategy, the supply of smartphones is becoming smaller. The idea of the company is to focus on higher-end phones, leaving the cheapest equipment for other brands.

But even their phones currently on the market, the Lumia 650, 950 and 950XL are having high discounts and accessories offers, such as Continuum dock, giving the notion that Microsoft is interested in disposing stocks and start over your new line.

Interest Microsoft now appears to be facing the business market, where the company hopes to captivate with their equipment.

The Lumia are disappearing from Microsoft stores

The last point that supports this idea of the end Lumia comes from within Microsoft's own. According to several reports, the physical stores Microsoft no longer have the Lumia on display and the employees themselves left to give information on these devices.

This measure shows that are either to get new equipment or Microsoft took so often thought decision to change dramatically its position in the smartphone market.

Microsoft's next event is coming soon and then will know whether the Lumia line up will keep the market or eventually we will have access to the new Surface Phone, which so often has been said.
