Good morning! It's a hot, humid slog here in New York. People are not happy. Let's get after the news.

  1. Apple issued a statement on the celebrity nudes scandal. It says there was no iCloud data breach, but that doesn't really mean much. All it means is that iCloud as a whole wasn't compromised. Apple's system is still easily cracked on user-by-user basis, and not as secure as it could be. Hackers were able to get the accounts of individuals because Apple's password protection isn't strong enough.
  2. Here's a detailed look at the next iPhone via a crystal clear leak of the hardware.
  3. Here's an analysis from Ben Thompson on why Apple will likely charge more for the 5.5-inch iPhone 6. While many people think Apple should charge less, this analysis argues that iPhones are coveted in Asia because they are expensive, so it's silly to cut the price.
  4. Samsung is hosting a major event today where it is expected to announce a new jumbo-sized smartphone, as well as its own virtual reality headset that rivals the Oculus Rift. 
  5. One our writers tried to only use Emoji to text with her friends for a week. The end result? A lot of frustration. If you thought emoji was a universal language, you were wrong.
  6. Uber has been banned in Germany, but Uber is going to operate there anyway.
  7. AOL Brands president Susan Lyne has stepped down to run an AOL-backed venture firm that invests in women.
  8. Greg Wyler, who was leading Google's efforts to beam internet via Satellite, has left the company, according to The Wall Street Journal. This is a major area of investment for Google, so his departure is surprising.
  9. Google's next tablet might have a keyboard/cover accessory just like Microsoft's Surface has a thin keyboard built into the cover.
  10. Softbank plans to start selling a humanoid robot character named Pepper at Sprint's stores next year. (Softbank owns Sprint.)
