    Google pulls cult classic Doki Doki Literature Club from Play Store.

    The game garnered attention for its juxtaposition of Japanese dating sim vibes with psychological horror. It even warns players that it’s not “for children” or the “easily disturbed.” The mobile port landed in December of 2025, and now Google has removed it for violating its Terms of Service and “depiction of sensitive themes.”

    Apple is reportedly testing four different designs for its smart glasses.

    The next big product category Apple is supposedly tackling is display-free smart glasses to rival Meta’s. But the design has yet to be locked in, according to Cupertino whisperer Mark Gurman. The company might launch some or all four of the designs under consideration:

    A large rectangular frame, reminiscent of Ray-Ban Wayfarers

    A slimmer rectangular design, similar to the glasses worn by Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook

    Larger oval or circular frames

    A smaller, more refined oval or circular option

    Southwest Airlines is limiting customers to one portable charger.

    In January, a power bank fire destroyed an Air Busan plane in South Korea. Since then, airlines have cracked down on lithium-ion batteries. Starting April 20th, Southwest will limit customers to one power bank with a capacity of less than 100 watt-hours. They won’t be permitted to store them in overhead bins or charge them mid flight.

    DHS is trying to force Reddit to expose a user who said mean things about ICE.

    After failing to get details about a user who said “TSA sucks and we all know it,” via a traditional court order, DHS is now dragging Reddit in front of a grand jury. The government has grown increasingly aggressive in its attempts to deal with online critics. Reddit has not said whether it plans to fight the subpoena, but according to The Intercept:

    “Privacy is central to how Reddit operates, and we take our commitment to protecting that seriously,” the company said in a statement to The Intercept. “We do not voluntarily share information with any government, especially not on users exercising their rights to criticize the government or plan a protest.”

    OpenAI responds to Axios HTTP hack by updating security certificates.

    When hackers got access to an account belonging to the maintainer of Axios, they inserted a script that granted remote access to users’ Windows, macOS, and Linux devices. This malicious version potentially compromised ChatGPT’s macOS apps, so OpenAI is issuing an update and new certificates to mitigate any risks.
