Source: Google

Google is finally bringing end-to-end encryption to Gmail. But it will be for Google Workspace and education users. End-to-end encryption “ensures sensitive data in the email body and attachments are indecipherable to Google servers. Customers retain control over encryption keys and the identity service to access those keys.”

You can apply for beta access to test the feature through this link. Google requires that both the sender and the recipients have end-to-end encryption turned on and valid certificates. You won't be able to send an email if any of the recipients are missing a valid certificate.

One of the new devices LG plans to bring to CES 2023 is a new InstaView French-Door refrigerator. This new 25.5-cubic feet counter-depth model sits flush with the cabinetry and features unobtrusive pocket handles. It maintains its sleek look with the flat-door design, stainless steel borders, and mirror-coated InstaView glass panel. When you knock twice on the panel, you can check what's inside without having to open the door.

This InstaView ref can produce four different types of ice and keeps food fresh longer with LG's advanced freshness technologies. LG was able to increase internal storage space on this refrigerator by redesigning some of its core components. It reduced the cold air duct and evaporator and improved its insulation, allowing 25% more storage than previous counter-depth models.
