Taking over as temporary CEO is Toni Schneider, the former CEO of WordPress parent Automattic. Graber also remains a member of the company's board of directors and will help determine who the permanent leader of the platform will be.

Satellite SOS comes to the Pixel Watch 4 in Canada

The March 2026 Pixel Drop introduces several enhancements to the Pixel Watch lineup, prioritizing user safety and seamless integration with the Pixel ecosystem. A major highlight is the expansion of Satellite SOS to Canada, Europe, Hawaii, and Alaska, allowing Pixel Watch 4 users to contact emergency services even when off the grid. Additionally, standalone earthquake alerts are now available on Pixel Watch 2 and newer models, providing potentially life-saving seconds of notice by notifying users of an earthquake's magnitude. For everyday security, the "Phone lock on disconnect" feature automatically locks a paired phone when the watch moves out of Bluetooth range, preventing unauthorized access.

Efficiency and personalization also take center stage in this update. Pixel Watch 3 users can now utilize one-handed gestures, such as a double pinch or wrist turn, to answer calls, snap photos, or pause workouts. Finding misplaced items is simplified with the new Find Hub, which allows users to locate devices directly from their wrist.

Critics argue that the MacBook Neo falls short, pointing to issues like only 8GB of unified memory, the lack of a backlit keyboard, and the absence of MagSafe. They''re not getting it.

At the core of early confusion is a misunderstanding of what this device is and who it is for. So, let’s break it down.
