FBI says they'll crack the iPhone themselves
Tonight we talk to Adam Christianson from The Mac Cast about the announcements at the Apple event. From the 4-inch iPhone SE to the 9-inch iPad Pro that works with the Apple Pencil, we explore the highs and lows of what was a relatively uneventful handful of announcements. Next we cover the non-Apple news like the anniversary of Twitter, the future of Medium, and an emergency update for Kindle. Selena Larson from the Daily Dot also tells us why frequent upgrading is no laughing matter.
