AT&T TV NOW While considered one of the major live streaming services, AT&T TV NOW has had a rough going out of the gate. It has been plagued by performance and service issues. Some people have complained of channels not working, major freeze-ups, or complete outages. The company has fixed some of those early issues and now it offers a fairly stable service. I have been using it for several weeks now and here is what I’ve found....
1. Uber claims ‘No sensitive data exposed’ in latest breach, but… “‘No evidence’ could mean the attacker did have access, Uber just hasn’t found evidence that the attacker used that access for ‘sensitive’ user data,” Demirkapi said. “Explicitly saying ‘sensitive’ user data rather than user data overall is also weird.” Read more » 2.

UPDATE: The Guardian reported tonight, Jan. 4, that Apple is “believed to have ruled itself out of the running” for the rights to stream Premier League football content. Despite much speculation from media outlets, such as The Daily Mail, it seems Apple has not even discussed the idea of bidding, and the company is unlikely to make an offer after the conclusion of this season. Furthermore, The Guardian said Apple’s primary competitor in the streaming device market, Google, is “considered a more likely bidder....

Ten days later, it’s time for my Dell UltraSharp 49 verdict – which will come as no surprise to anyone, I think. When I decided to try Dell’s 49-inch monitor, I said that I’d lusted after it ever since it was announced, but all the same, it did feel a little bit crazy … When my first impressions piece turned out to run to 2,000 words, it seemed pretty obvious where this was heading....
Chris Evans has played two Marvel characters in his career, but it turns out his favorite superhero growing up was DC’s Batman. Known and beloved to MCU fans as super soldier Steve Rogers/Captain America, he’s one of the founding heroes of the franchise, having inhabited the role for almost a decade now, with a plan to cap it all off in next month’s Avengers: Endgame.

Apple CEO Tim Cook is noted for speaking up on social issues, expressing views on such topics as immigration and diversity. That’s something that some have criticized. For example, Fortune executive editor Adam Lashinsky questioned whether companies should focus solely on commercial issues. Cook vigorously defended his stance, and said that Apple expresses values rather than taking political stances … I think that’s an absolutely valid perspective. While there are those who would argue that, as the most valuable company in the world, Apple is now just a money-making corporate entity, I think that’s not quite the case....

Yesterday’s news that Steve Jobs decided to stand down as the CEO of Apple wasn’t entirely shocking to seasoned Apple watchers who knew this day would come. The writing has been on the wall for quite some time, if you were willing to read early signs, such as an open-ended sick leave nearly stretching into its ninth month. Wall Street understandably sent AAPL down 4.6 percent to $358.75 in early New York trading in what one investor described as “an emotional trade in the short term” that also affected Nasdaq-100 Index and Standard & Poor’s 500 Index which both declined a fraction of a percent on the news....
