AT&T finally has an answer for the Un-carrier, but AT&T subscribers can’t have it

%name AT&T finally has an answer for the Un carrier, but AT&T subscribers can’t have it by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Are you an AT&T subscriber who would like to see your carrier offer unlimited talk, text and data deals like Sprint and T-Mobile do? You can already get an unlimited data plan from AT&T right now, but only if you’re a DirecTV subscriber. Barring that, your next best option is to switch to Cricket Wireless, an AT&T prepaid subsidiary that’s now offering unlimited talk, text and data for just $70 a month. For the record, this is better than T-Mobile’s best offer of $95 per month for unlimited talk, text and data.

Experts agree: Congress’s ‘braindead’ anti-encryption bill is unspeakably bad

%name Experts agree: Congress’s ‘braindead’ anti encryption bill is unspeakably bad by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

A few days ago, a first draft of an anti-encryption bill from Senators Richard Burr (R-NC) and Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) came to light and it drew an instant backlash from security experts. The law is apparently so bad that not only would it make the some of the NSA’s own work illegal, but it would also outlaw some of the things we’ve taken for granted for years, such as the ability to compress large files to share them online.

Uninstall QuickTime from your Windows PC right now

%name Uninstall QuickTime from your Windows PC right now by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Do you still have QuickTime installed on your Windows PC for some reason? If so, now is the perfect time to install it — in fact, I’d recommend uninstalling Apple’s video player from your computer right away and without delay. Trend Micro this week put out an “urgent call” for Windows users to uninstall QuickTime mainly because Apple will no longer be issuing new security updates for the software. That means if new vulnerabilities in QuickTime for Windows are discovered, they’ll never be patched.

Refreshed 13-inch and 15-inch ultra-thin MacBooks were expected in the second quarter, but a new report says the machines are going to be launched only at some point in the second half of the year.

These incredible iPhone cases heal themselves from scratches

%name These incredible iPhone cases heal themselves from scratches by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

If you have an iPhone 6 or an iPhone 6s — or the Plus versions, of course — a clear case is one of the best options you have. You have to protect your phone from drops and dings, obviously, but you also don’t want to hide that gorgeous design. As it turns out though, not all clear cases are created equal. In fact, some clear cases have capabilities that seem sort of… magic.

Take Just Mobile’s TENC Self-Healing Ultra-Slim Transparent Cases for the iPhone 6/6s and iPhone 6/6s Plus. On the surface they look just like any other clear case, but they’re hiding a pretty incredible secret: They’re coated with a special layer of plastic that is somehow able to heal itself from scratches!
