Yeah, I'm falling down to my ankles What's up kids Hello fellow teenagers All right, you guys ready i'm ready Let's do it. Here we go. Three two Hello, all you beautiful people the daily tech news show is brought to you by you You can find out more at that daily tech news show dot com and we thank you for your support This is the daily tech news for monday april 16th 2018 in los angeles downtown merit and from studio field items Arlene also in los angeles. I'm la marwilson And you know who else is in los angeles? Well sort of he's real close our producer roger Yes, i'm very close. I am buddy four minute actually not even a four minute freeway drive away We're all in the same county anyway. That's right. True. We're all l. A county so you can claim los angeles You can claim it even more than the los angeles angels of anaheim roger It's true. They are quite some distance away. They're not even in the l. A county, but that's not what we're here to talk about Let's start with a few tech things you should know Ride hailing company ola said it will add 10 000 electric three-wheelers to its fleet in india over the next year Starting in three cities yet to be announced ola plans to have one million electric vehicles available by 2021 russia's communications regulator ordered isp to begin blocking telegram Within 24 hours a monday a court ruled that telegram had failed to comply with legislation requiring companies to give the fsp access to messages Triland officials who use telegram have moved to icq owned by mail.ru icq i know i smile when i sit i'll tell them Hey, sony announced the xperia xz2 premium it is a Slight improvement over the xz2 gets a 5.8 inch 4k display six gigabytes of ram 3540 milliamp hour battery also splits the rear camera into 19 megapixel color and 12 megapixel monochrome Sensors with a claim of ultra low light capture equivalent to interchangeable lens cameras There's all kinds of cool iso numbers for you camera folks to go check out the xz2 premium will be available this summer Sony also announced a 10.3 inch version of its digital paper tablet That's 5.9 millimeters thick weighs about a half pound and can last a month on a charge That'll be available in early june. It's usually available outside of japan, but it's mostly marketed in japan All right, let's talk a little bit more about cybersecurity. We have a couple of worldwide Issues going on here starting with an alert Yeah, the uk's national cyber security center the fbi and the u.s. Department of Homeland Security Issued a joint warning of a broad campaign by what they believe are russian sponsored agents to hijack essential internet hardware From the isps and other critical infrastructure operators so yeah, this sounds scary and and the russians are coming to get us but i It i don't have a lot of information on it, but i do want to point out one thing i saw in article is that We're doing the exact same thing to them So, you know, it's just one of those situations is that do do we get enraged angry or Or do we say well, you know, we're we're equally bad on their side too. I'm not sure Yeah, the the news here isn't that there are organizations trying to hack into big companies and isps by way of Infrastructure That that has been happening for a long time It's not even big news that it is possibly state sponsored That that has been suspected for a long time and we have evidence that israel united states korea north korea Russia have all Done this in the past what i think is news here is that the uk and the us are going on record pointing a finger a lot of that plays into other diplomatic events going on around syria Around russia's possible role in the 2016 election and all of that So i'm sure this is part of that whole diplomatic playbook But on the tech side of things it actually is fairly useful I would hope For companies to get an official Sharing of information saying these are the kind of attacks we're seeing these are the kinds of measures You need to make sure you're taking please go through this checklist Make sure your sysadmins are on board I'm sure a lot sysadmins are rolling their eyes saying yeah, we know about this But as we know, uh, there are sometimes holes that aren't aren't realized if you're not looking Yep Agreed. Yeah The us commerce department has denied zte the right to export sensitive technology from the us Which means us suppliers can no longer sell parts to zte And that's actually significant because us suppliers make up an estimated 25 of components that zte uses in its products Commerce says zte didn't issue letters of reprimand or withhold bonuses from employees who engage in illegal conduct zte agreed in march of last year to pay as much as 1.2 billion dollars for violating us laws restricting sale of us technology to iran There's a few different ways to look at this story. Uh, if you're outside the united states And especially if you're inside china, it looks like, uh, trumping up charges against zte To fight them off and keep them from making money in the united states market If you're inside the us, it looks like they're trying to say it is a system of We caught them sharing technology with iran. We punished them. They didn't follow through on the punishments So now we were punishing them further It really is going to be an issue for zte if they can't source parts from qualcom For instance, if they If they if they can't have snapdragon processors. It's not the end of the world There are plenty of other processor makers out there And in fact, this could have a knock-on effect To benefit the samsungs of the world or maybe even huawei which makes its own processors To be able to sell processors to zte So i'm not sure this will have the effect That it's intended to Necessarily, but it is a significant development one way or another Yeah, it made me think, you know, you mentioned huawei and we we've done a similar Uh thing to them, you know, blocking them out of the out of the market only out of government though We've never brought huawei out of the entire country. This says you can't even buy parts. That's that's a step up Right. Absolutely. So yeah, just in general just I guess there's a perception issue Are we blocking them because there where there's a fear of you know Of competition or you know, I could see the point on the other side But I would I would also caution suggest that they're being This is happening because they broke the law, right? They did they It wasn't something where we don't like zte because they looked at this funny. It's like they were caught in and well zte says they weren't breaking the law So, I mean they admitted the Iran thing, but they're they're disputing About the letters of reprimand. Yeah, I'm just being doubles advocate here. I'm at green or disagree It just seems like, you know, if zte issued letters of reprimand they could be like, well, we did and here they are Yeah, why wouldn't they right? So, uh, it doesn't seem like it does doesn't seem like the kind of thing you'd you'd necessarily Create out of fiction, but I get what you're saying roger, which is you know If if zte is not dispute would not dispute that they Failed to do these things then you punish them For that is is this the appropriate punishment though? That's a whole other question All right a study from analysis mason shows china has the best rollout plan for 5g Followed by south korea then the united states then japan now all four are given kudos for having rollout plans They're just saying china seems to have the best one of the four the study evaluated the best combination of wireless carriers committing to the technology government backing for research the clarity of the rollout plan by 2020 and Each government's commitment to use of the spectrum Now you may say, oh, so who paid for this wall way? No, the us the cti a the lobbyist group for the us wireless carriers paid analysis mason to conduct this study Uh, and and maybe you know you jump to the conclusions and people pay for studies that they pay for them for A reason because they often do If the cti a kind of knew what this analysis would find The reason they would back it is they want to push the united states government to do more Because at and t and verizon particularly have very robust rollout plans for 5g But they've been complaining that they haven't had the government support that they would like Yeah, and the government is actually floating the idea of doing a you know nationalized 5g network, which that was That was actually blown out of proportion. Did you not? Okay, I didn't hear about it. No, so it was one person in a meeting suggested a thing and then went to write a paper And it was like taken out of context and said the government is planning this Okay, and I understand. Oh Yeah, I I see that still bandied her out though I'm glad you brought it up because I think a lot of people are still thinking that's a plan When it was a notion of of maybe a couple of people Yeah, yeah, they still want to have the leadership in and uh in 5g Yeah, I'm not so cool. Well, and you don't need to have a Nationalized 5g network for the government to support what the carriers are doing uh and and and frankly This this probably serves the carriers interest more than anything because while china may have ended up nosing out the others in this study all four of these countries have all four of these things and you see I what you really want to worry about is if you're europe Or india or nigeria where you're like, oh, we we aren't even mentioned in this study Like maybe we need to get our act together, especially europe, right? Yep So police in wills use an image recovered from a mobile phone app as evidence in 11 drug related convictions south wales police Scientific support unit were able to use fingerprints in a what's app photo of a handholding ecstasy tablets Their photos show parts of the middle and bottom of a finger now while national database records only keep the top part All the evidence pointed to a suspect who can then be confirmed by using this photo So wow Exactly what I said on this one If I was again devil's advocate because I like doing that, you know, it made me think of When a traffic ham grabs you you know grabs your license plate and say you are speeding that you don't Actually get a real ticket. You just you know, you pay a fine and it goes away. It just made me wonder How heavily could they prosecute Something like this being it being a photo But then, you know, when you read further you find out what they they kind of got them for something else and then while he was in The the station then they were able to identify him. So so maybe that's not a a good comparison here Yeah, it wasn't like they looked at the photo and ran it through the database and got a match, right? This is not csi what it was is we've got a lot of evidence We're pretty sure it's this guy and if we can bring him in and and match the part of the finger that we have a picture of Then that's further evidence to help the conviction So it works the other way around you narrow it down to the finger and then you match it to the photo to Put the nail in the coffin to say like yeah your honor This finger here on this man is the same one seen in this picture holding the ecstasy tablet So I rest my case Right, it's not as not as if we all have to worry about being like I thought it was adville. I don't know Like a second, you know, I'm not really next to see it was it was you know, one of many Reasons to point to this particular also someone says hey hold these tablets so I can take a photo for what's that? Don't do it. Yeah, don't do it and be smart. We're gloves. Anyway Yeah Not even gonna touch that but I will move on pc mag reports that samsung introduced the galaxy j2 pro in south korea last week Seems like yet another low-end phone with a five inch qhd amoled screen 16 gigs gigs of internal storage front and rear cameras snapdragon 425 processor But but there is an interesting thing about this phone the j2 pro you can use it for for voice calls You can use it for texting, but it has no internet service. No lte Not even 3g not to mention 5g not even wi-fi cost 199 101 which is about 184 us dollars samsung is also offering to replace the phone with a galaxy s handset for students who take the 2019 20 college scholastic ability test So as a former you got an internet addiction. This is the phone for you Yeah, there's a former teacher. I thought of the the idea of this You know in a classroom where parents have to have a you know conduit to the kids and we got to pick them up for something Um, perfect phone for that situation. They're not sitting there looking at air and they're looking at things You're not supposed to So I can see parents lighting up and really wanting this As an option or and teachers as well schools in general Yeah, this is this is for Mostly kids it's mostly like uh, I really want my kid to have a phone But I'm worried about what they'll do with it when I'm not there to supervise And so if you lock it down to like hey, you can take pictures You can send me a picture of your science project or your basketball game the over text message That's great. You can call me when it's time to pick you up or if you have an emergency But I'm not worried you're going to be out on the open internet without me Doing something that I don't want you to do now Well, it was funny as I mentioned this to my wife this morning and she immediately Thinks in the side of the kid. She's like, oh man It'd be horrible if you were the kid that got stuck with this phone and all your friends have smartphones And you're the kid is like, you know, my phone doesn't have the internet on it Yeah, I I mean you can do a lot via text Yes, you know, I mean like no, it's not the same as having you know internet service But um, it's not as if like this is going to restrict some sort of, you know, like The, you know, a spread of information in any way. Can you still do sms twitter? Is that the little thing? I don't know Actually didn't know the answer to that You will uh, yes, I think you still can so that's an interesting aspect There there's there are a few sms systems out there Although I now the thing is rocking around in my mind that maybe they deprecated that finally not too long ago uh, but The the point is like it's speed bumps, right? You're not going to stop your kid From doing all bad things by taking the internet off the phone But you know, if you're thinking of it more as like, well, I don't want them to accidentally do something either I don't want them to to get a virus or or or get get surveilled by facebook I just don't want them to to do that and this way They wouldn't do it on this phone. Anyway is is is something that is a fair point And the other thing they mentioned in this article from the bbc is it could also be used by older folks Who just need to have cell phone and text and just don't need anything else, right? Like you don't want them accidentally going on the internet and installing apps that are going to get them in trouble Uh, not nothing trouble with the law kind of trouble, but like messing up their phone, right? So I don't know, uh, I I think it's an interesting An interesting thing because we went from like these phones have the internet in them to all phones have the internet to like Maybe there's a use case for a phone that doesn't have the internet Well, you know and so many folks it's sort of a trend these days It were people saying like, you know social media is running my life. I got to step back You know, I need to like, you know, get rid of some of these services Interesting to maybe make a conscious decision To have a phone that simply cannot support a lot of that rather than having to you know Uninstall apps and make a big, you know, to do about it. Um I'm all for it If you want to get all the tech headlines each day in about five minutes Be sure to subscribe to daily tech headlines available on the amazon echo on the google home on the anchor app And of course is a podcast at daily tech headlines dot com All right We've seen lots of examples of what the internet of things might be useful for and some of you would argue that It's not useful for many of those things that it promises to be Uh, and certainly some are more hype than others But here are some uses you might not hear as much about senets charitab can and roger chang Uh posted earlier this month another in senets series called tech Enabled and this particular article is about hearables Now the articles describe various devices used to help the hearing impaired for instance Uh In the united states the over-the-counter hearing aid act Let's adults with mild to moderate hearing loss now buy devices without a prescription It means they're easier to get that means companies can sell lower priced models It also ordered the fda to designate a new category to be used by tech companies and headphone makers Opticon or i'm sorry otacon. I knew I was going to do that. I'm like it's not about site It's otacon like anyway otacon opn Can trigger your smart devices it works as an internet of things device So they they tell the story of a user who gets up in the morning And as soon as she puts in her hearing aid the lights turn on the coffee machine goes Uh if the doorbell rings it chimes in her ear. It could stream audio from the phone iPhone hasn't made for iphone uh program that allows a lot of devices to interact directly with the iphone for audio Starkey uh is is a company that's really aggressive in this space They're streaming audio from the phone uh like many of these are by mid-year They want to add accelerometers and gyroscopes so you can track motion Uh do things like detect falls in older users or nod or shake in response to a smart assistant So that you can just answer yes or no and it won't know oh they're shaking their head Uh tracks normal activities and alerts a relative or caregiver if something seems wrong Using a little machine intelligence and by the end of this year They hope to have natural language translation and they're working on heart rate and glucose sensors They're like we want these to be more than just hearing aids We want them to be a device that helps you do everything A lot of companies are putting them into augmented reality glasses as well Uh companies like bows and samsung are are adding all kinds of hearing assistant features To headphones. What what do you think of this stuff lamar? Well? Yeah, we were talking about uh health before the show And it you know it made me think as you know as we get older just you know things start breaking down or Think you know Yeah, it's the heart start happening to our body and I I for one have embraced, you know the internet of things You know, I love having my watch that can keep a track of my heart rate, you know if it spikes it alerts me lets me know Uh, you know, if I'm you know, I've got to call 911 it'll alert my friends and I've designated like like these type of advancements really uh enhanced the quality of life and so you know for for people who are Uh, uh heart of heart of hearing this brings a whole new world to them That I know with with these devices number one I love that you don't need a um prescription for it and that companies can come in and you know And it can pee down in it and offers a really good value and I see like I see no negatives with this Uh, there was also one Funny one where uh, they were talking about somebody who may not want to hear stuff We'll put these in for an uh, let's say you had a spouse who? Snores constantly, you know, you put these in and it'll play, you know some some sounds So you don't hear any anything around you. I thought that was really cool as well Yeah, some white noise stuff to keep you sleeping. I I I love that The impression I got as I read this article is is it's less now about Oh, there's a category of people and even if it's 20 of the united states has a impairment of some sort Uh, but it's less about like, oh, we need to help these people It's about hey, there's all kinds of things we can do in hearing assistance Some of which will benefit people without any kind of significant hearing impairment and and many of which will And it just kind of blurs that line where it's no longer. Oh, you have a hearing aid You're in a category. It's oh, you're you're wearing a hearing assistant device What does it do for you? Does it help you hear better? Great. That's one thing Uh, and in fact the or does it just like help you operate your smart home better or both? Right. I mean the coffee maker is not really about hearing loss, right? It's sort of like I'm ready for my day to start This is you know, this is how I tell my home to you know, kind of wake up with me Um, I love the idea of noise canceling earplugs though Um, well and this and and earplugs that can do both right? Yeah, they can assist you in hearing when you need it A lot some of these have directional mics in them. I think bows has that Where you can be wearing there they call them earphones but But they can allow you to in a room in a crowded room They can cancel out some background noise and direct the mic towards the person you're looking at So that it helps you particularly hear the person in front of you And I just love the idea that the same device that can do that can then just like block out everything Like, you know what I want to go from hearing one person to know people Yeah, that's actually awesome. Yeah, I was I was thinking too, uh for for the bed you had these on you had the white noise And let's say, you know You could designate certain people to be emergency callers Then you would hear them you were hear that ring or if the doorbell rang you would get that directly in your in your Here. Yeah, there's so many possibilities Uh of this. Yes, we'll be having more devices on us. But uh, again, it's about quality of life and and enhancing Uh, you know some of our sensors. I think it's I think it's a good thing There are a couple of these companies that are talking like Uh, and they're they're already I think boz is doing this with some augmented reality glasses Where they're saying we think we can replace the smartphone Uh, because we can tell you what's around you You can talk to it And so you can get all the same kind of information you would get Uh, without having to look at a screen or type anything And that's a that's a stretch Yeah, I've always I'm always nervous about relying on speech As my command system. I don't like saying what I want out loud When i'm out, yeah, yeah, that's the problem with assistance. It's not always pleasant You know, I mean there are reasons I don't know I've I've I've become pretty reliant on my little smart speaker at home To do a lot of things that I've trained myself not to look up on the internet Yeah, and you know at first it felt weird and now it feels really normal a friend of mine the other day She lives in a different part of LA and she was like, is it warm in Venice right now? And like I was like Hey, is it warm here? Tell me smart speaker But would you do that in public though, would you if you're in a crowded grocery store? Would you yell at your phone the same thing? I would probably not yell at my phone But I yes, it's much easier when I'm alone in my apartment to you know, do these experiments than than out and about for sure All right, big thanks to everybody who participates in our subreddit You can submit stories and vote on them at daily tech news show reddit.com and in our facebook group at facebook.com Slash groups slash daily tech news show We've been talking about gdpr quite a bit on dtns and Nate Langson has some good perspective on it from the uk Thanks, guys There's only one month to go before arguably the biggest change to online data privacy law comes into force And although it's a european law It's going to affect companies anywhere in the world if they have data on eu citizens Now you've probably heard of it gdpr Dtns did a great summary a little while ago, but the clock is ticking So we've got a super digestible layman's guide to what it means and how it's going to work As told by one of the uk's leading experts on it All that and a look at why city buses might benefit from ejector seats at tech podcast dot uk Out to ride that bus. All right, uh, let's check the mailbags here Let's this one comes from oleg who says on friday's podcast You are wondering whether the blockade of telegram in russia is a big deal. I can tell you it's a huge deal I assume oleg is in russia. Uh, it's the most discussed news in the dot r u segment of the web That's top level domain for russia sites hosted outside russia also provided tutorials for circumventing this blockade Because people are interested in that domestic pages with this content were taken down Telegram is more than a peer-to-peer messaging service for a lot of folks in russia There are other uses such as telegram has become a de facto social network kind of like twitter Almost all websites and media organizations have a telegram channel and quite a few new news outlets exist as telegram channels only Also telegram has an encrypted voice service with a twist We're talking about we're talking about audio stuff people on both ends see a string of emojis You read the string to each other at the beginning of the conversation and then you make sure that you're talking to the right person It's often used by the opposition for event planning Hope it provides additional perspective on the significance of telegram in russia Yeah, this is much more context than nine million users, right? Like nine million users is a lot But this tells you what they're doing with it and and i'm glad he mentioned this because a lot of people Don't realize that telegram is used a little bit like snapchat Not so much in the like short video message aspect other than that may be part of it But in the it's not just for private messages. It is for that absolutely But it's also for just sharing messages with a following, you know, like any other social network Very interesting oleag. Thank you so much for sending us that email. Thank you very much and also thanks to lamar wilson Who's joining that's a lot more regular level these days lamar tell folks what you've been up to and how they can keep up with your work Yeah, thanks.

Uh, are you still using it? Ah, yes, so I bought three home pods when they came out three three. Uh, yes I've had nothing but problems with home kit Since I've got it and so this weekend I threw my hands up and I said I'm going back to google assistant So I went and got all google homes again. Everything's working pristine I don't have to yell at my home pod to you know, it'll say sorry. We can't connect so we I was it was just awful for all of my lights if things couldn't turn things on Uh, it's just not ready. It's a great speaker. It's just not ready for the the home kit type stuff. So My perspective if you ever get rid of it more more a problem with home kit particularly home kit particularly I wouldn't I wouldn't say the speaker itself.
