Today's Story Highlights

In Technology We Trust... But Should We?
Since the industrial revolution, technology has changed society
continually. Largely due to innovations in semiconductor electronics,
software and computer technology, the pace of technological development
has continued to accelerate over the past 50 years. Personal computers
now fit into your pocket. You have access to people and information all
over the world through the Internet.

Amazon Has Big Plans for Alexa in Homes, Cars
Amazon will unveil eight new Alexa-powered devices for the car and home
before the end of the year, according to a report. They include a
microwave oven, an amplifier, a receiver, a subwoofer and an in-car
gadget. Amazon is expected to reveal some of the devices at an event
later this month. All the devices will connect easily to Alexa, and some
will have the voice assistant built in.

The Future of Open Source
Linux and the open source business model are far different today than
many of the early developers might have hoped. Neither can claim a rags-
to-riches story. Rather, their growth cycles have been a series of hit-
or-miss milestones. The Linux desktop has yet to find a home on the
majority of consumer and enterprise computers. However, Linux-powered
technology has long ruled the Internet.

Apple Watch Goes All-In With Health and Fitness Focus
Apple aimed to stretch its lead in the smartwatch market when it
introduced its Apple Watch Series 4 last week. The redesigned and re-
engineered line features a bigger display, thinner and smaller case, an
interface with richer detail, and some innovative health applications.
"There's a lot of cool things to like about this," said Ramon T. Llamas,
senior research analyst at IDC.

Death Watch Begins for Google
The EU has been stretching its wings. In the shadow of Brexit, it
apparently has decided it has the real enemy of the people in its
sights: social media companies and Google. France is even more
aggressive, suggesting that the EU's "right to be forgotten" law should
apply worldwide. Given that it actually does fall within the legitimate
purview of government, it is hard not to agree.
