Google’s 2019 I/O conference is underway in Mountain View, California, with 7000 software developers registered to attend. The company is laying out its plans for software updates for the next 12 months, and revealed a new, lower priced, Android phone, and an in-home voice assistant with a larger screen and camera.
As well as attracting new users, the new hardware and software could allow the internet giant to collect even more user data, but Google says it’ll provide new ways to delete it.
If you’re a member of your local public radio station, we thank you — because your support helps those stations keep programs like Marketplace on the air. But for Marketplace to continue to grow, we need additional investment from those who care most about what we do: superfans like you.
Your donation — as little as $5 — helps us create more content that matters to you and your community, and to reach more people where they are – whether that’s radio, podcasts or online.
When you contribute directly to Marketplace, you become a partner in that mission: someone who understands that when we all get smarter, everybody wins.
