The cuts include approximately 10,000 jobs, Reuters reports. Oracle is also laying off 491 remote employees in the Seattle and Washington state offices effective June 1, according to a filed notice under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act. Oracle declined to respond to the BBC's request for comment. Gmail, which actually for real launched 22 years ago on April 1, 2004, opened the ability to change a Google account username to all users in the US. The change was announced in 2025 and began a gradual rollout in December. Usernames can be changed only once every 12 months and all existing emails will still be available with the former email address remaining active and able to receive emails. Both emails will work as a Google sign in and all data in Photos and Drive and other Google services remain accessible. Apple is pushing a security update to iPhones on iOS 18 to protect users against attackers using the Dark Sword Takeover tool, which can infect a phone by visiting any websites with infected code. The update allows users to remain on iOS 18, not forcing any upgrades to the most recent iOS. The device can run as is usually standard. Wired reports that as of February, up to a quarter of all iPhone users remain on iOS 18, noting many are holding out due to distaste of the Liquid Glass UI. Users on the latest version of iOS are already protected. The Wall Street Journal reports Anthropic is attempting to control the spread of the leaked Claude code source code by issuing copyright takedown requests covering over 8,000 available copies. On Tuesday, an Anthropic spokesperson told Axios a Claude code release included some internal source code. No sensitive customer data or credentials were involved or exposed and and this was a release packaging issue caused by human error, not a security breach. We're rolling out measures to prevent this from happening again. On Wednesday, parent company of TikTok ByteDance announced a new rollout of AI video model Sea Dance, called CDance 2.0 with a third party partner strengthening the model's intellectual property rights protection. Sea Dance's initial release brought complaints and a cease and desist from the Motion Picture association with the viral Tom Cruise battling Brad Pitt video drawing lots of attention to the model. All output will contain visible and embedded watermarks, with ByteDance introducing a way to detect model created content even if altered off platform. Sea Dance 2.0 will be available in editing app Capcut for paid users in Brazil, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. No timeline currently available for the US and India. TikTok also announced a partnership with Cameo integrating requesting personalized videos from Cameo directly from the TikTok app. Creators on TikTok can also sign up for Cameo without needing to set up a separate account. Bloomberg reports Google is developing a screenless fitness band to compete with other screenless offerings from Whoop and Aura Health Health, the band is expected to release under the Fitbit brand later in 2026. Basic features will be accessible for free, with advanced features requiring a subscription. Google will also charge for the device, unlike Whoop's model, which includes the hardware with a subscription and On Wednesday, Samsung released a free Android app called hearopy, claiming it can reduce the effects of motion sickness with sound. The app plays a low 100 Hz sine wave for one minute to stimulate part of the ear responsible for balance, which Samsung says should relieve symptoms like nausea for up to two hours. The sound can be replayed as needed, though any relief is not guaranteed. In 2025, Japan's Nagoya University published research showing specific sound wavelengths helped reduce the discomfort for those suffering from motion sickness. The app's effectiveness may vary depending on headphone quality. Samsung recommends using the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro for more discussion on the tech news of the day, subscribe to the Daily Tech news show@dailytechnewssshow.com where you can also find the show notes and links to every headline.
