This week Chris and Rod have follow up on Apple’s legal victory as the ITC closes the case on the Apple Watch import ban, a new tool that finds a back door into the Windows 11 Recall database, and India’s decision to drop plans that would have forced state-owned apps onto iPhones. There is also a look at reports that Apple and Google have been inadvertently pointing users toward nudify apps, and why Grok was reportedly under fire from the App Store. In the news, a Dutch navy frigate has had its location outed by a simple Bluetooth tracker, Gemini has gained the ability to create personalised AI images from your Google Photos library, and the UK has been warned that its dependence on Big Tech is becoming a national security risk. We also discuss Apple’s choice of Amazon satellites for the iPhone and the launch of GoPro’s Mission 1, which brings interchangeable lenses to the action cam. The main show explores the growing movement of creative software rivals declaring war on Adobe, as Chris and Rod share their own toolkits featuring everything from DaVinci Resolve and Logic Pro to VSCodium and Pixelmator.
