Google partners with StopNCII to fight non-consensual intimate imagery (NCII) Google has announced a partnership with the UK nonprofit StopNCII to use StopNCII's image hashes to help prevent non-consensual intimate imagery (NCII), often called revenge porn, from appearing in search results and on participating platforms. How it works Users (adults) select intimate images/videos on their device and StopNCII creates a digital fingerprint (hash) of the file. The image itself never leaves the user’s device. StopNCII uploads only the hash to its system and shares it with participating platforms and search providers. If someone uploads a matching file, platforms using real-time hash-matching can block the upload or remove the content automatically. Limitations The system only works for known images (you must have a copy to create a hash). It does not…

Rumor: Touchscreen MacBook Pro Could Arrive in Late 2026 — Kuo Longtime analyst Ming‑Chi Kuo is reporting that Apple may finally add on‑cell touch panels to MacBook Pro models, with mass production expected in late 2026. A lower‑cost MacBook (likely the Air) is rumored to launch around late 2025 without touch, with touch‑enabled versions possibly arriving in a 2027 refresh. Key points: MacBook Pro models with on‑cell touch panels — mass production expected late 2026. Lower‑cost MacBooks likely won’t include touchscreens at launch (late 2025); a 2027 refresh may add touch. These are supply‑chain‑based rumors and should be treated cautiously. Why it matters: Touchscreens have become common on Windows convertibles and hybrids (e.g., Surface). Adding touch to macOS laptops would blur the line with iPad, offering convenient direct interaction for…

Preview in macOS Tahoe: Problems with Text SelectionPreview in macOS Tahoe: Problems with Text SelectionSince the release of macOS Tahoe, many users have reported issues when using the built-in Preview app to select text inside PDF documents. Instead of selecting single words or short passages, selection often expands to large, invisible structural blocks (for example, regions that contain underlying table or paragraph tags).
