Dan Moren of Six Colors is in this week for Tech News Weekly with Mikah Sargent. Apple will likely raise the prices of its products in the future. Roku is being bought by Fox. Android 17 arrives for your smartphone! And could your devices come pre-installed with backdoor software?

  • Dan talks about an interview with Apple CEO Tim Cook in the Wall Street Journal and how it's unavoidable that the company will have to raise the price on its devices in the future due to memory chip costs fueled by AI demand.
  • Mikah laments the potential acquisition of Roku by Fox in a $22 billion cash-and-stock deal.
  • Patrick Holland of CNET joins the show to talk about Android 17 and the new features within the operating system.
  • And Mikah shares an investigation by the Wall Street Journal on how many cheap smart home devices have been secretly hijacked by a Chinese company to create a massive residential proxy network used by state-backed hackers from Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea.
  • Hosts: Mikah Sargent and Dan Moren
