 Good morning! This is the tech news you need to know this Tuesday. 1. Apple took a direct shot at Facebook on Monday during its annual developer conference. The company announced new privacy controls and software features to let users block distracting apps and avoid online tracking. 2. After talks were first reported by Business Insider, Microsoft confirmed over the weekend it is acquiring GitHub for a whopping $7.5 million. The deal is expected to close by the end of the year. 3. Internal documents reviewed by Business Insider reveal just how much of a nightmare Tesla's production is for the Model 3. The car company is blowing through substantial amounts of raw materials and cash, the documents show. 4. Apple is bringing personalised emoji to the iPhone, so users can create their own mini-mes in avatar form. Apple calls the new avatars Memoji and they will mimic users' facial expressions and head movements. 5. Twitter has disbanded its live-video business unit responsible for deals with programming partners like Disney/ESPN, MLB and BuzzFeed, Variety reported. The unit will be consolidated under its content-partnerships team. 6. Apple CEO Tim Cook had an unsubtle dig at Facebook during an interview with CNN, where he said "the privacy thing is really out of control."
