HTC One M8 is available in Asia starting this week, the device launched first on Taiwan (HTC's home country and HQ). Market reception was very positive as distributor PDAKing reports that demand is greater than the available supply at the moment.

 

"M8 Demand is higher than supply right now," - Sophia Tsai, Pdaking's general manager, told reporters.

 

Note that this version of the One M8 is slightly different from the US and Euro versions it has a Snapdragon 801 where the CPU is clocked at 2.5GHz instead of 2.3GHz. It carries a price tag of NTD 21,900 (about $720 - €525).

 

PDAKing who made the announcement, didn't give a concrete sales count, but apparently orders have been doubling each day since the phone became available on March 25. The phone is already "Sold-out" on some retailers.

NSA leaks and stories is getting worse because its spying illegal practices. New evidence suggests that the US-agency targeted 122 key world figures for unlawful surveillance.

The NSA employed a system known as "Nymrod" to spy on these figures. What does Nyrmod do? Well it's an advanced surveillance system that automatically tracks, records, and logs key communications from a variety of different sources, such as phone calls, emails, and text messages. These key communications are deemed "cites" from the US agency.

Who were some of the people targeted? Ukranian Prime Minister, Yulia Tymoshenko, German Chancellor Angela, and Syrian President Bashar Asad, to name a few. There are plenty of other leaders and important figures that have had cites collected from their communications. More info on the source link below.

In-App purchases is getting ridiculously annoying, Have you ever used a free application in Android, and then found yourself clicking on an ad in the app, even though you could have sworn you never touched the pop-up ad ?

Well that's because there are some applications that give you the illusion of choice when it comes to not selecting an ad, they register any press on the screen as an ad-click.

 

Google decided to take action against that and other tricky in-app add practices which considered fraud and spam in Google policies. Google has laid out some new rules for Google Play applications that specifically call out this kind of application behavior. They are also laying the smack down on "promotion or install tactics" by halting undesired downloads, redirects to the Google Play store, and unsolicited SMS advertisements.

Also banned from the Play store under the new guidelines are advertisements that use "erotic content" to promote porn, Also Google stated "Apps that contain or promote pornography are prohibited". Google has also called for more clearly defined behaviors as to when and how developers use their in-app purchases.

Did you know that you can hide Pre-installed apps on your iPhone if you have iOS 7.1 ?

 

Apps like Stocks and Newsstand can be removed until the next reboot, all thanks to a glitch discovered on iOS 7.1. And the best part is that a YouTube video can show you how it is all done. All you need to do is make sure that your iPhone or iPad is running iOS 7.1, and follow the following directions.

Take all of the pre-installed apps that you want to get rid of, and open a folder with them inside. You can do this by dragging the icons for these apps on top of each other. Now, make sure that the bottom dock of your iPhone or iPad is completely full. Also, your home screen needs to be full of icons, and the only folder on the page has to be the one you just created of the apps you want removed. You then need to long press on any icon to start wobble mode. Watch the video below for more details.
