If you’ve ever wondered whether upgrading to the Apple Watch ECG functionality might justify an upgrade to the Series 4, cardiologists say probably not… CNET consulted several cardiologists, who said there is little overlap between Apple Watch owners and candidates for AFib. Indeed, as has been suggested before, the feature could cause unnecessary worry. Contrast that with the fact that the CDC estimates AFib affects somewhere between 2.7 million and 6....

We got an early indication that Consumer Reports were impressed with the Apple Watch when they were unable to scratch the sapphire screen of the stainless steel model. The well-respected non-profit has now revealed that the full set of lab tests are complete, and the Apple Watch ranked top out of the 11 smartwatches tested. Consumer reports tested the watches for durability, water-resistance, health functionality, readability in bright and low light, ease of use, and ease of interaction – though there was one slightly worrying moment for the Apple Watch Sport … To test water-resistance, Consumer Reports uses a depth-test chamber that can be pressurized to simulate any depth up to 230 feet....

Back in 2015, the University of Wisconsin successfully convinced a court that Apple’s A-series chips infringed on a patent for a method of boosting the efficiency of integrated circuits. The iPhone maker was subsequently ordered to pay damages. But Apple appealed, with a two-prong defence, and has now succeeded in getting the judgement reversed … Apple was originally facing a bill as high as $862M for infringement of the patent. A jury subsequently awarded a lower sum of $234M after the judge ruled that Apple’s infringement was inadvertent rather than willful....

AT&T said today that MMS messaging, which has been a glaring omission on the iPhone 3G and new 3GS, will arrive on Sept. 25. It’s not quite the “late summer” launch that we were told about, is it? Why the delay? Well, AT&T said earlier that it was because the company was “finalizing internal system upgrades”. They say that tethering will be announced sometime in the future. Really? We have to wonder why all of the other industrialized world telcos and some of the third world iPhone carriers have had MMS and tethering since launch....

The proposed anti-trolling laws seek to compel social media platforms into creating complaints schemes that allow people to issue complaints about potential defamatory material and receive information about the poster of that material for the purposes of initiating legal proceedings. “Every submission today has said this Bill is grossly inadequate in terms of its drafting of the unintended consequences,” said Carr, who is the deputy chair of the Senate committee tasked with reviewing the anti-trolling legislation....

Apple’s decision to be much more proactive in alerting users to background location tracking in iOS 13 has resulted in a 68% drop in the location data collected by apps. The issue has also seen greater media attention, with many people now learning about the existence of commercial location-tracking databases. iOS has long offered users control over whether and when an app can track your location, but iOS 13 introduced two changes that have made users much more aware of the issue…...

Back during the early 2010s, a lovely little show called Being Human debuted on the British Broadcasting Network. The show gained a respectable fanbase over the years and received a fair amount of critical acclaim. Naturally, that means America wanted to get in on the action - ordering a US adaptation to air on the SyFy network (formerly the Sci-Fi channel.) Today, we’re going to compare the UK and US versions of Being Human....
