The Sound of the Silenced: Inside the ten-year global fight to keep the internet on

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Felicia Anthonio first encountered the impact of internet shutdowns in 2017. While working as an intern tracking press freedom violations, she was prevented from verifying information on the ground or contacting people in the area when disruptions were imposed across Anglophone Cameroon. Certain stories struck her particularly hard. "Most of the young technologists who were building their careers in this particular region had to leave the country," Anthonio told TechRadar. Almost a decade later, Anthonio serves as the #KeepItOn global campaign manager at digital rights organization Access Now. To mark the 10th anniversary of the coalition's work, the team has launched the "Sound of the Silenced" initiative . It features eight firsthand accounts from people across the globe, illustrating how shutdowns isolate communities and endanger li...

The new reMarkable Paper Pure wowed us with its 'flawless' pad-and-pen experience, but it's far from the only great handwriting tablet on the market — here are our top alternatives

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support The new reMarkable Paper Pure is an impressive handwriting tablet, but it's facing stiff competition in the e-ink slate market. If you're thinking of buying one, it's worth taking a look at the alternatives to make sure there's not an option that'd be a better fit for you. We've tested several excellent e-ink tablets; I've rounded up our favorites below. The reMarkable Paper Pure has a 10.3-inch screen, which is the most common size for this kind of tablet. However, if you'd prefer more writing real estate, the reMarkable Paper Pro has a more generous 11.8-inch screen. Conversely, if you want something compact, the smartphone-sized Kobo Libra Colour and reMarkable Paper Pro Move are small enough to slip into a back pocket. Although many of today's best ereaders are waterproof, once you add writing into the mix, waterpr...

I’m not buying a Garmin Fenix 9 at those prices — here’s what I’m looking at instead

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Do you ever feel that some smartwatches have just too much smartwatch in them? That’s what struck me when Garmin announced the Fenix 9 and Fenix 9 Pro today. Sure, they look like great devices — but at over $1,000 / £850 / AU$1,500 a pop, I’ve been wondering how many people actually need everything they have to offer. I know I don’t. While I love working out, I’m not a pro athlete and don’t need anything like the suite of features you get with Garmin’s new watches — but Garmin's first live event launch seemed aimed at people like me, the Apple Watch crowd. It's telling Garmin didn’t actually mention how much they cost during the show itself. If you feel like me and baulk at the expense required to slap one of these devices on your wrist, it’s not all bad news. There are plenty of other options out there, and none of them will break the bank in quite...
