Vin Diesel has shared his support for cinemas in a new video, where he makes a case for audiences to see Fast & Furious 9 on the big screen. He returns once more as Dominic Toretto for the movie, the latest installment in the Fast & Furious franchise. Vin Diesel is hoping it will be the movie that saves cinemas.

Twitter is planning to introduce a new feature called Tip Jar after experimenting different ways to allow creators to monetise their content. This will allow users to collecting tips from followers that enjoy their content. Not many details are available yet but it is expected that account owners will need to have a certain number of followers to use the feature.

Security researchers digging into AirDrop, the feature on iPhones that allows users to share files via WiFi and Bluetooth, say they have come across a flaw that they say exposes users’ emails and phone numbers. The advise that if you’d rather avoid having your iPhone expose your contact info to other people and protect yourself from hackers, only turn on AirDrop when you want to use it, but then turn it off again. Disabling the feature will provide you with some peace of mind.
