Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “This phone CAN’T be real…”.
Do you know what they say you either die reading the tech news or you live long enough to see yourself reading celebrity gossip. I don’t know anyway we’re a long ways off from that Mobile World Congress, which was supposed to take place in Barcelona. This week was cancelled, but that isn’t stopping tech companies from getting the word out about their fancy. New phones, vivo has unveiled a concept phone called the apex 2020 and it’s well frankly, it’s a little much.
The phone has no buttons and no ports, as it relies entirely on its 60 watt wireless charging, although that is something that we have seen in the past. In concept, phones and the screen curves around the edge, even more than Samsung’s phones used to do vivo. Also, apparently, figured out the whole embedding a camera under the display, Fang and then the rear camera module, not just the lens, is actually stabilized by an actual gimbal.
Oh and it has 7.5 X optical zoom, which all sounds amazing. The problem is, it’s probably not a real phone normally we’d be able to verify this depending on whether vivo had an actual unit on the show floor. But there is no show floor, there’s just the internet and you really can’t trust anything that you see there, except for us clear view.
Ai, the controversial facial recognition company that scraped billions and billions and billions of photos from online platforms recently admitted that their client list had been stolen by hackers, and now that list has been leaked. Clearview said early on that, their goal was to help law enforcement catch criminals, and that was apparently true. Agencies around the world have allegedly worked with the company, including the FBI, the RCMP up here in good old Canada, and then I guess other ones.
That was it. It’S a list of the issue is the list of other companies there’s more than 2,000 of them that are not law enforcement at all. We’Re talking retailers like Macy’s wal-mart banks like Wells, Fargo, ISPs like AT .
