Onstage today at the Vanity Fair Establishment Summit, Snap CEO Evan Spiegel disclosed that the company had sold “over 150,000 units” of Spectacles sunglasses.

Oct 03, 10:40PM
Uber’s board of directors unanimously voted today to move forward with a proposed investment by SoftBank and Dragoneer Investment Group.

Oct 03, 10:00PM
ICOs are said to be the new way to raise money. We’ve seen companies raising millions by selling tokens.

But that is changing. Read MoreFormer Intel CEO Paul Otellini passes away

Oct 03, 9:30PM
After trekking out to the middle of Central Park to see Snapchat’s newest AR feature, I can solidly say that the best part of the experience was getting to spend some time outside during a beautiful fall day. Yeah, it was that lame. Read MoreYahoo now thinks all 3B accounts were impacted by 2013 breach, not 1B as thought
Oct 03, 8:54PM
Internet giant Yahoo’s massive 2013 security breach has dealt the company yet another blow. Today Yahoo sent out a notice disclosing that a further investigation of the 2013 breach has produced new evidence.

The NuForce… Read MoreFormer Equifax CEO says breach boiled down to one person not doing their job
Oct 03, 7:24PM
In a continued effort to pass on any responsibility for the largest data breach in American history, Equifax’s recently departed CEO is blaming it all on a single person who failed to deploy a patch.

Waymo has been pushing for the delay to account for… Read MoreThe Netgear ReadyNAS 524X is a data hoarder's delight
Oct 03, 7:14PM
As a member of the Data Generation, I’ve found that my photos, videos, and documents quickly expand to fill their containers. A standard USB drive is quickly replaced by another, larger one while home network file servers fall by the wayside as they get full, old, and dangerously lossy. In short, it’s time for the big guns.
