Apr 11, 4:45AM
China is widely suspect to be behind the recent attacks on Github and internet freedom group Great Fire. Now we have the most concrete evidence that indeed it was, and it looks like it did so using a new weapon to boot. Read MoreAs Vertical Marketplaces Rise, Craigslist Faces Its Demise
Apr 11, 2:00AM
Craigslist is one of the largest marketplaces on the Internet today, but as we see it, not for long. Over the last several years, we’ve watched businesses and consumers shift away from Craigslist and toward vertical marketplaces. The shift implies an abundance of exciting vertical marketplace investment opportunities. Read MoreWhat It's Like To Try Out The Apple Watch In-Store
Apr 11, 1:42AM
Apple began offering previews of the Apple Watch at its stores this morning, and we had a chance to show up early and get a run-through of the demo process before doors opened to customers looking to make an appointment. Read MoreTC AppleCast 12: Apple Watch, MacBook And Beards
Apr 10, 11:16PM
It’s Apple Watch pre-order day! The new device went on sale this morning at just after midnight Pacific time, and now shipping times are extending to at least June across the product lineup. Our guest today, The Loop’s Jim Dalrymple (@jdalrymple), not only successfully ordered three but also went to the Apple Store in Palo Alto to check out the in-store experience. I also managed… Read MoreInstacart Is Quietly Working With Third Parties To Outsource (Some Of) Its Deliveries

Read MoreCongress Returns Next Week With A Tech-Heavy Agenda
Apr 10, 10:38PM
Congress is back from a recess this week, and with lawmakers we’ll see the return of some familiar issues. We will see Congress address patent reform and cybersecurity in the coming weeks. Once lawmakers finish with cybersecurity, it’s possible we could even see legislation related to National Security Agency (NSA) phone record collection before the end of the month. These are… Read MoreSnapchat Goes Hard At Coachella With New Dynamic Filters
Apr 10, 10:25PM
Snapchat wants to usurp Instagram as they way to share Coachella Music Festival adventure. So today it revealed a new style of Geofilters that change throughout the day to tell friends what they’re looking at. Rather than just a generic “Coachella” illustration that can be overlaid on photos or videos all day, Snapchat has different ones for each Coachella band that are… Read MoreExclusives Screw Music Fans
Apr 10, 10:09PM
Listeners lose when music becomes fragmented. You might like your new on-demand streaming better than CDs, but at least you could buy them in any store. At this rate, no matter who you choose to pay $10 a month, you might not get all the music you want. As each streaming app tries to differentiate itself, they’re signing exclusivity and windowing deals so you can only hear certain songs… Read MoreBuzzFeed Editor-In-Chief Ben Smith Says He "Blew It" By Removing Post Criticizing Dove
Apr 10, 10:01PM
You might have heard about a BuzzFeed article criticizing a “condescending” Dove ad campaign (it asked women to walk through doors marked “beautiful” and “average”) — but in the past couple of days, you wouldn’t have been able to read it on BuzzFeed. Well, now it’s back. Read MoreMicrosoft Drops A New Windows 10 Build, Bringing The Love To Lots More Phones

It’s New Build Day for Microsoft kids, as the Redmond software shop dropped new code that will bring Windows 10 to a host of smartphones that were previously not able to handle to the beta operating system. The build, number 10051, brings a host of new features to Windows 10 for phones, including refreshed core applications and the Project Spartan browser that has already cropped up for… Read MoreAspiration's Growth Shows The Appetite For More Financial Services

Defying its critics and building on the success of players like Wealthfront and Betterment, Aspiration, the new money management firm launched by Andrei Cherny, is off to a roaring start. The company has 700 customers paying for its initial wealth management product and has received $2 million to manage for its clients. Read MoreIs Competition Really For Losers?
Apr 10, 9:00PM
While declaring “competition is for losers” has become fashionable among unicorn-chasing VCs, most founders still reject this line of thinking. They know there is a gray area, and that large markets with multiple similar companies can produce multiple success stories. Nevertheless, any startup that can’t explain why they will be 10x better versus their competition on a… Read MoreCrunchWeek: Apple Built A Watch, Zynga Recycles CEOs, And HBO Cuts The Cord
Apr 10, 8:21PM
Welcome to another Friday and another episode of CrunchWeek. This week we had a treat in that two-thirds of our staff’s Sarahs sat down to dig in and rake over the news. We presume that you are bleary eyed due to staying up all night trying to fend off both nerds and tech press — redundant though the juxtaposition may be — to order an Apple watch. Also popping this week… Read MoreGillmor Gang LIVE 04.10.15

Apr 10, 7:48PM
I went to the Apple Store in downtown Toronto’s Eaton Centre today to try on the Apple Watch with a retail specialist. It’s a new way of shopping for Apple, and one that will clearly take some getting used to both for retail staff and for customers. Read MoreThis Week On The TC Gadgets Podcast: Samsung Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 Edge, And Apple Watch
Apr 10, 7:00PM
I’m just going to be honest with you. We record the Gadgets Podcast on Thursday and publish it on Friday. We can usually get away with it, but on the eve of Apple Watch pre-orders, we had a hard time faking it. In the time between recording, the Apple Watch went from being available only through the words of early reviewers to being up for pre-order to being delayed to June shipping.… Read MorePSA: Sorry, Those Apple Watch Band Swapping Sites Aren't Going To Work Like You Thought
Apr 10, 6:53PM
Sorry to disappoint you, recent Apple Watch buyers, but you’re not going to be able to use one of those brand new Apple Watch strap trading sites to get a whole new, extra watchband when your Apple Watch arrives. In case you missed it, a couple of Apple Watch band trading sites recently popped up, reportedly offering owners the ability to swap out the included extra watchband with… Read MoreEx Machina's Stars Talk About Cinematic Robots And "Bro Billionaires"
Apr 10, 6:41PM
A new science fiction movie called Ex Machina opens today — it’s a tense, thought-provoking story, and one that may be particularly interesting to TechCrunch readers for its depiction of artificial intelligence and the way the characters struggle to understand the consciousness of the movie’s robot, Ava. Earlier this week I interviewed Alicia Vikander, the actress who plays… Read MoreDiary Of A Cord Cutter In 2015 (Part 6: HBO Goes Over-The-Top)
Apr 10, 6:04PM
HBO’s “Game of Thrones” is the world’s most pirated show, according to new data from anti-piracy solutions provider Irdeto out today. So it’s not surprising that the network has now moved to make watching its content more easily accessible to those who don’t want to pay for cable or satellite television. Instead, thanks to deals with Apple, Cablevision,… Read MoreIf at any time you'd like to stop receiving these messages, just send an email to feeds_feedburner_com_techcrunch+unsubscribe-hmdtechnology=gmail.com@mail.feed2email.net.
