Netflix teases 70+ films coming to the service in 2022

As it did in 2021, you can expect at least one new movie a week on Netflix. The company teased some of the over 70 films coming to the platform this year. This three-minute sizzle reel shows footage from upcoming films like Rian Johnson's Knives Out 2, Enola Holmes 2 with Millie Bobby Brown and Henry Cavill, Slumberland with Jason Momoa as a half-man/half-beast, and Guillermo del Toro's stop-motion take on Pinocchio. 

There's also a quick look at the big-budget thriller from Avengers: Endgame directors Joe and Anthony Russo starring actors like Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, and Bridgerton's Regé-Jean Page. Sci-fi movies are also in the pipeline, including The Mothership with Halle Berry and Spaceman with Adam Sandler.

Google One VPN comes to iOS

If you're an iOS user that has a Google One Premium subscription, you now have access to the VPN service. Google brings the feature to subscribers who pay for 2TB or more of Google One storage in 18 countries, including Canada. As The Verge noted, the feature is similar to Apple's Private Relay service for all its paid iCloud plans. The VPN service works to keep your IP and internet traffic private, but it won't let you get an IP address in another country, which potentially unlocks different shows on streaming services.

Google's VPN service for Android users also gets new features like "safe disconnect," allowing you to shut off internet access if you're disconnected from the VPN to ensure your data is secure. It will also allow you to set certain apps to bypass the VPN on Android devices.
