Here's an hot news which regards to a reputed company named Microsoft. The employees over there demand cancellation of contracts with ICE. With pressure mounting on the Trump administration's  family separation policy , Microsoft employees have joined the fold. As first reported by the  New York Times , more than 100 of the company's staff have signed an open letter to CEO Satya Nadella requesting to stop working with U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The letter demands Microsoft "cancel its contracts" with ICE, as well as those with clients who support the law enforcement agency's work. "We believe that Microsoft must take an ethical stand, and put children and families above profits," the letter reads. "We also call on Microsoft to draft, publicize and enforce a clear policy stating that neither Microsoft nor its contractors will work with clients who violate international human rights law," the letter r

This post explains you clearly, how the Google answered to Amazon’s Echo Dot. It’s called the Google Home Mini. It has minimal cost of $49 only, which comes under in three colors and is such a pretty snappy little device that’s worth taking a look at. We had some time to get up close and personal with the device; here are some of our first impressions… First off, the audio is a bit punchier than the Echo Dot. It doesn’t feel a lot louder, but it is much less tinny, which is great. In practice, the mic input is about as good as the regular-sized Home, as in it works fine in normal use but struggles when the room gets loud. In my opinion, Amazon still has Google beat here in distinguishing background noise from audio the device is playing. It’s the size and shape of a donut and comes in coral, gray and charcoal colors. The design is definitely less obtrusive than the Dot, though it is a bit larger. Design-wise it seems it’s aiming to be a little less futuristic, with the enti

Amazon and Google are in a not-so-fun fight. Google has apparently decided to stop allowing the Amazon Echo Show to access YouTube. If you ask the smart speaker to show you a YouTube video, it fails and Alexa just say this: “Currently, Google is not supporting Youtube on Echo Show.” That seems like a pretty strong thing for a computer to say, so I asked Amazon about it, and the company issued this (excuse the pun) fire statement: The Echo Show, if you’re not familiar, is the Alexa-enabled smart speaker that has a screen on it so you can do stuff like... watch video. And YouTube is the internet’s largest source of said video. One of the core use cases of the Echo Show for some people might be watching cooking lessons or music videos — on YouTube. Amazon’s strident statement makes clear that it doesn’t believe this is a technical mistake, but a conscious choice by Google. Google, however, very much begs to differ on the reason it blocked YouTube on the Echo Show: We’ve been
