South Korean authorities have reportedly raided Apple’s offices in Seoul, South Korea, just ahead of the iPhone X launch in the country. The iPhone X goes on sale in South Korea and a dozen more countries tomorrow … London’s Metro reports that the timing of the raid is likely to lead to suspicions in a country noted for strong – and sometimes corrupt – relationships between the government and major Korean corporations. Metro.co.uk has learned that investigators visited Apple’s HQ earlier this week to ask questions about its business practices ahead of the launch of the smartphone tomorrow. The raid is likely to raise questions about whether South Korean authorities are trying to hamper the success of the X, which has sold out across the world. Apple products are wildly popular in South Korea, which is home to several giant tech firms including Samsung and LG. Last December, South Korea’s then-president Park Geun-hye was impeached on charges of accepting bribes. As part of th...

Elon Musk kept his promise: The SolarCity chairman successfully built the world’s biggest lithium ion battery in South Australia–ahead of schedule. In July, Tesla and French renewable energy company Neoen were awarded the contract to help the country deal with its energy problems following a 2016 statewide blackout. The Tesla founder was so enthusiastic about the effort that he even tweeted this summer, “100 days from contract signature or it’s free.” According to a local state government website, the 100-megawatt Tesla Powerpacks set has now been fully installed and will be energized in the next few days as it enters a phase of regulatory testing. Tesla said it will be able to power more than 30,000 homes, approximately equal to the number of homes that lost power during the blackout period. The Verge reported that the battery is estimated to have cost $50 million. “The world’s largest lithium ion battery will be an important part of our energy mix, and it sends the clear...

The startup did not disclose the attack until Tuesday, adding a potential cover up to a list of recent corporate controversies. Uber said that two people outside the company accessed the personal information of 57 million Uber users in late 2016, including names, email addresses, and phone numbers. The license numbers of around 600,000 drivers in the United States were included in the breach. The company did not alert victims or regulators of the breach when it was first discovered. Britain's data protection watchdog said the news raised "huge concerns" about Uber's data policies and ethics. "If U.K. citizens were affected then we should have been notified so that we could assess and verify the impact on people whose data was exposed," said James Dipple-Johnstone of the U.K. Information Commissioner's Office. Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi said in a statement he recently learned of the breach. Khosrowshahi, who became CEO in August, said he...

The report adds that India will be the first market to receive the new iPhone SE before it is made available more broadly, and it will be manufactured by Wistron. The new iPhone SE will reportedly start shipping in the first quarter of next year.
