As frustrating as it is that governments and businesses are running roughshod over our online freedoms, at least we have plenty of good VPNs to keep us protected online.

Apple's second-generation AirTag offers greater range but still doesn't have a keyring hole

Apple has launched its next-generation AirTag for $29 and brought a slew of new features along with it.
