WhatsApp shares data with Facebook – or does it?
Some users received a notice last week that WhatsApp is updating its privacy and terms of use. There it concerns changes to the data transfer of user data to Facebook. As it turned out a few days later, however, it doesn’t quite seem to be the case. No more insight? Don’t worry, our articles provide clarity, and we’ll talk about it in today’s TechnikCast:
Samsung Galaxy Unpacked Event for 2021 is fixed
Since Monday of this week we have known it officially: Samsung will present new products on January 14, 2021. This includes the new Samsung Galaxy S21 series (all leaks here), the Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro and a lot more. The event will take place at 4 p.m. our time, but not as part of CES 2021, but as a separate event. You can of course find the livestream in the article. We will of course report back to TechnikNews afterwards.
Slack starts the new year with downtime
Some companies that rely on the Slack tool for team communication had to take a break. Retrieving and sending messages and other media was not possible for just under two hours. Some users were able to access the service in the meantime, but the majority had problems with it. Slack has now explained what exactly was going on.
