You know what? The Anti-5G USB Stick Is a Scam A lot of bullshit has been circulating about 5G lately, specifically as it relates to the novel coronavirus. To be very clear: There is no evidence that the rollout of 5G is at all connected to the origin or spread of covid-19. But that hasnât stopped dozens of attacks on cell towers, the proliferation of cockamamie conspiracy theories, and, of course, hucksters peddling bogus anti-5G products to the scared masses. The 5G BioShield USB Key is the latest dumb device to make headlines. On its website, itâs described as creating a âwearable holographic nano-layer catalyzerâ that can be used for the âbalance and harmonization of the harmful effects of imbalanced electric radiation.â Basically, the device creates a holographic bubble that somehow protects you from the scary 5G waves for a bafflingly varied range of 8 to 40 meters. It is, in fact, a regular old 128MB USB stick with vaguely sci-fi words slapped onto it for marketing. Pen Test Partners, a UK-based security firm, wrote a tear-down blog of the deviceâas youâd expect, the stickâs supposed âquantum holographic catalyzer technologyâ transmitter was nothing more than a sticker. No other electronic components were found. The most disturbing thing about the USB stickâbesides the fact it costs ÂŁ300, or roughly $350âis that itâs been recommended by the Glastonbury Town Councilâs 5G Advisory Committee, which has called for an inquiry into 5G tech, according to the BBC. You can find the recommendation and a link to this bogus device on page 30 of the committeeâs final report. The report is also full of spurious 5G claims, saying that birds may fall âout of the sky dead when 5G is onâ and that people could get nose bleeds or commit suicide at higher rates. (Snopes has debunked the 5G bird deaths, while health fears over 5G radiation are also unfounded.) Equally disturbing, the BBC found that the founders of BioShield Distribution show that they were previously involved in a dubious business called Immortalis that hocked a dietary supplement featuring a âproprietary procedure that leads to relativistic time dilation and biological quantum entanglement at the DNA level.â Enough said. But the anti-5G USB stick isnât the only bogus product out there. On Amazon, youâll find an assortment of 5G underpants. Entering â5G protectionâ into Amazonâs search bar will net you 9,000 results with products ranging from pills, stickers, phone cases, hats, and crystal bracelets. Querying â5G shieldâ will get you roughly 1,000 results, including a ridiculous maternity belly band that supposedly protects an unborn fetus from the âdangersâ of 5G. Is it surprising that Amazon hasnât cracked down on these products? No. But it goes without saying that they should. So in light of the charlatans capitalizing on 5G-related coronavirus hoaxes, it bears repeating that 5G frequencies donât present a greater risk than other types of electromagnetic radiation. These bogus anti-5G products are at best expensive placebos, and according to the New York Times, your skin is actually a pretty good barrier against higher-frequency radio waves, including 5G. So, no, no one is catching covid-19 from 5G cell towers. And those brain worms you got? Itâs more likely you picked them up from Twitter.
Finally, someone to beat tiktok..? Also from China tho TikTok has a new competitor: Zynn, a nearly button-for-button clone of TikTok that differentiates itself with one key twist â it pays users to sign up, watch videos, and convince others to follow suit. The app launched at the beginning of May, and itâs now the number one free app in Appleâs App Store and in the top 10 on Googleâs Play Store theverge.com/2020/5/29/21274994/zynn-tiktok-clone-pay-watch-videos-kuaishou-bytedance-rival

Galaxy Note 20 Plus leaks! renders suggest a slightly bigger screen and much bigger camera bump Last yearâs Galaxy Note 10 Plus was truly a thing of beauty, with an amazing screen and superlative industrial design. And, judging by some high-quality (and completely unofficial) renders of the Galaxy Note 20 Plus, it looks like Samsung wonât be changing too much in 2020. The only major difference is a new, bulkier camera module on the rear of the device. These renders come from noted leaker @OnLeaks in collaboration with phone-case maker Pigtou. As with all renders based on leaked CAD drawings, they should be taken with a pinch of salt, but the design they suggest for the Note 20 Plus seems reasonable enough. GRID VIEW 3 of 3 These renders are based on leaked CAD drawings. The most obvious feature is the big, nearly edge-to-edge display, with curved bezels, sloping sides, and a small, central hole-punch cutout for the selfie camera thatâs near identical to the 2019 design. The top and bottom edge also look the same as that of the Note 10 Plus, with speaker grille, charging port, and space for the signature S Pen stylus. In terms of size, the Note 20 Plus will reportedly be slightly bigger than the 10 Plus, with a 6.9-inch display instead of last yearâs 6.8-inch AMOLED screen, and slightly longer but thinner dimensions, with the same overall width (165mm long, 77.2mm wide, and 7.6mm thick, according to leaks). The most noticeable change, though, is the camera module on the rear of the device, which is much bigger than that of the 2019 Note Plus, according to the renders. In the Note 10 and Note 10 Plus this module was a pretty slim oval containing three lenses, while the flash module was positioned to one side, flush with the case (in the 10 Plus there are two additional divots that supply the phoneâs depth-sensing capabilities). But the Note 20 renders show a larger, more rectangular module that apparently integrates all these components â lenses and assorted gubbins â into a single raised unit. This looks extremely similar to the camera system on this yearâs Galaxy S20 Ultra, which was very much designed to show off Samsungâs photography abilities. The S20 Ultraâs module contained five lenses sporting up to 108 megapixels, and a 4x optical zoom that offered solid results up to a 10x zoom with the help of software. Thereâs a lot to say about that camera system, but check out our full review from February for more information. If the Note 20 and 20 Plus are anything like previous iterations in the series, theyâll contain the best, biggest, and brightest of Samsungâs smartphone specs. So itâs not unreasonable to expect some high-end camera hardware. Weâve not seen any leaked specs for the 2020 Notes, though, so will have to see what surfaces in the months to come. Reports suggest that Samsung will be launching the Note 20 in August, though this will likely be an online-only event as a reaction to the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic. youtu.be/pS8bErtjIDQ
