For reasons that still remain a bit unclear, the idea of breaking up large tech companies like Facebook, Google, and Amazon has became a popular talking point for a few Democratic presidential candidates this year. With respect to Facebook in particular, Senator Elizabeth Warren has been championing a plan that would see regulators rollback a number of Facebook’s more notable acquisitions, including its $1 billion purchase of Instagram and its $19 billion purchase of WhatsApp.

“Today’s big tech companies have too much power — too much power over our economy, our society, and our democracy,” Warren said in a widely circulated blog post this past March. “They’ve bulldozed competition, used our private information for profit, and tilted the playing field against everyone else. And in the process, they have hurt small businesses and stifled innovation.”

NASA’s Mars 2020 mission will attempt to answer a number of questions about the Red Planet, and one of the most pressing is the search for life. Today, Mars is largely barren and dry, but things were a lot different billions of years ago, and the possibility that life once existed there has loomed large as scientists search for clues using rovers and landers.

But if we do eventually find evidence of life on Mars, how will mankind react? In an interview with the Telegraph, NASA chief scientist Jim Green says that we’re not ready to find out.

Your future WhatsApp messages, should you choose to accept it, will self-destruct in five seconds. Or 1 hour, whichever feels more convenient. The feature is currently in alpha testing according to a recent discovery, so there’s no telling when or even if the new Snapchat-esque feature will ever actually make it to the app. Even so, it goes to show that Facebook is considering stealing yet another feature from Snapchat for one of its apps, or maybe even all of its messaging apps at some point down the road.

We’ve written on several occasions about just how essential Google’s mobile apps are on both Android and iOS, and now a new addition appears to be entering the fold. XDA Developers editor-in-chief Mishaal Rahman reports that the built-in Emergency Information app on his Pixel 2 XL received an update this week that changed the app’s name to Personal Safety and added a new feature that detects car crashes and can call 911 automatically.

As Rahman notes, he is the only person he knows with a Pixel device to have received the update, which he says is likely a result of “the numerous tweaks” he has made to his device. As such, he believes that this is likely an app that was intended to roll out with the Pixel 4, but it’s not clear if it will be exclusive to the Pixel 4.
