The Moto Razr and Razr Plus Succumb to Shrinkflation
The memory crisis claims another couple of victims. Motorola’s midtier and entry-level flip phones cost $100 more than their predecessors, and have few upgrades to show for it. The 2026 Razr Plus costs $1,099, up from $999. It still comes with a Snapdragon 8S Gen 3 chipset – two years old at this point – […]

Apple Addresses iPhone Flaw Enabling FBI Entry to Erased Notifications
404 Media disclosed that a flaw in Apple’s push notification storage system permitted the FBI to retrieve erased Signal messages from a suspect’s iPhone using forensic tools. The case, which DOJ representatives present as the inaugural instance of indicting individuals with “Antifa” related terrorism charges, unveiled a method for governments aiming to bypass Apple’s user privacy regulations, which necessitate that law enforcement obtain a court order to access users’ notification data.
As per the company’s support page, the updates for Apple’s iOS 26.4.2 and iPadOS 26.4.2 fixed a “logging issue” and produced “enhanced data redaction.” The correction addresses a security vulnerability where “notifications designated for deletion might be unexpectedly stored on the device.” Apple asserts that the update is accessible for “iPhone 11 and subsequent models, iPad Pro 12.9-inch 3rd generation and beyond, iPad Pro 11-inch 1st generation and beyond, iPad Air 3rd generation and beyond, iPad 8th generation and onwards, and iPad mini 5th generation and later.”
This security correction is another installment in Apple’s struggle to safeguard users against unwarranted privacy violations. Since 2015, the tech behemoth has been in the sights of the U.S. government, entangled in public conflicts regarding federal law enforcement’s access to user data. While executives have positioned the company’s privacy protections as a cornerstone of its product suite, its pro-privacy legacy is somewhat compromised by the current CEO Tim Cook’s readiness to yield to foreign governments.
