Maciej Cegłowski: This requires us to talk about a different kind of privacy, one that we haven’t needed to give a name to before. For the purposes of this essay, I’ll call it ‘ambient privacy’—the understanding that there is value in having our everyday interactions with one another remain outside the reach of monitoring, and that the small details of our daily lives should pass by unremembered. What we do at home, work, church, school, or in our leisure time does not belong in a permanent record. Not every conversation needs to be a deposition.

Man Destiny 2 is killing it right now. Opulence is fantastic, September is hype as fudge. So pumped for the future. — True Vanguard (@TheTrueVanguard) June 20, 2019

iPad Pro connected to a 4K UltraFine display with support for Bluetooth keyboard, mouse, and DualShock 4 controller. Just need a single USB-C cable to go from tablet to dream iOS workstation, now with cursor support 😍 (I re-use the same accessories for my Mac mini.) pic.twitter.com/8VqKEQlDXw — Federico Viticci (@viticci) June 19, 2019

Google Calendar outage, well that certainly frees up my day 😊

Ben Thompson: Google: Again — and note a developing theme here — Google’s anticompetitive behavior is relatively clear. First, the company consistently favors its own properties in search results, particularly “above-the-fold” — that is, results that are not actually search results but which seek to answer the user’s query directly. A partial list: Google by-and-large removed video segments from competing properties in favor of YouTube videos Google offers local results from Google Maps above search results that tend to favor Yelp, TripAdvisor, etc. Google offers hotel and flight listings above search results that tend to favor Booking, Expedia, etc. Google displays AMP-enabled websites (a Google technology) above search results that are agnostic about how a web page is displayed. Google displays tweets for individuals (thanks to a beneficial relationship with Twitter) above search results that tend to favor LinkedIn, Facebook, etc. $&…$&

Ryan Gilliam writing for Polygon Bungie’s focus for Destiny moving forward is depth. What the studio is calling Armor 2.0 should bring new player builds into Destiny 2 with Shadowkeep. Players will customize their armor with meaningful perks, instead of having to choose between quality and aesthetics. The images that Bungie used in the trailer show a kind of energy system. It looks like players can slot different perks into their armor. But each perk costs a certain amount of energy.
