If we’ve learned one thing from years of hacks and phishing, it’s this: A username and a password alone aren’t strong enough to protect our most precious accounts. So why don’t our bank apps require us to pile on extra security settings?
Don’t Forget to Block Your Ex on Your Payment Apps

When a payment app goes ding, we expect it’s somebody giving us money—or wanting money from us. It also could be someone we don’t want to hear from. Alexuis Baremore was asleep in her High Point, N.C., apartment early on Jan. 27 when Cash App’s coin-dropping alert woke her up. The 28-year-old slid her arm under her pillows to feel around for her phone, held it to her face…and then rolled her eyes.

When your smartphone tosses up a photo memory, it’s a bit of a crapshoot. Sometimes you get to recall that fun trip down the shore or enjoy a compilation of your children’s birthday parties over the years. Other times, it’s heartache. Alana Trachenko opened the Google Photos app on her iPhone on Feb. 14 and noticed it had crafted a new video slideshow titled “Together.” It was a collection of photos taken on other Valentine’s Days over the past several years, “a beautiful collage of all my exes,” she said.

When to Use a VPN—and When It Won’t Protect Your Data
  + stars: | 2023-01-30 | by ( Dalvin Brown | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Virtual private networks, better known as VPNs, are shrouded in mystery. These software tools are meant to hide the data coming in and out of your phone or PC, to make web browsing and other activity more private. For one thing, when you’re online, your internet service provider can see a lot of the data that passes through your devices. It knows where you are, what apps you download, which websites you browse and how long you spend on a site. ISPs can use that information to improve their products, but they also can sell it to marketers.
When Your Dog Eats Your Apple AirTag
  + stars: | 2023-01-30 | by ( Dalvin Brown | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Colin Mortimer knew there was trouble when his dog Sassy started beeping. He’d been trying to locate a lost AirTag, the $29 Bluetooth device designed by Apple Inc. to help people keep tabs on their keys, luggage and other personal items. This particular AirTag normally attaches to his other dog’s collar, letting him keep track of her location.
Many people hoping to score a deal on Apple Inc.’s top-of-the-line wireless earbuds are winding up with something far less valuable: counterfeit AirPods. Caroline Ballard, 26 years old, was perusing Facebook Marketplace when she came across a pair of new AirPods Pro for $80, less than a third of the $249 list price.
Whirlpool Corp. said that more than half of its smart appliances remain connected, but the company declined to be more specific. Development of these smart devices is a core priority for Whirlpool and LG, the companies said. The smart-home trend began gaining traction around 2014, according to Mr. Kim, and has grown since then. Whirlpool declined to comment on the percentage of its sales represented by smart appliances. According to Murat Genc, Whirlpool’s global data, experiences & transformation officer, smart appliances are generating data from consumers and are producing new revenue opportunities.

CES: How Will Gadget Startups Face Economic Challenges? The global trade show CES kicking off this week has been the place for startups to showcase their technologies to potential future partners and customers. But the show has been disrupted by the pandemic the past couple of years, and a looming economic downturn has taken a toll on tech companies big and small.

It has been a hard few years for smaller gadget startups. It isn’t likely to get easier soon.
