This week’s tech news has been dominated by the massive leak of nude celebrity photos. Apple’s CEO said on Friday that the company will tighten up its security with notification for users when someone tries to restore their iCloud account.

The people who have been working on Google’s self-driving cars have also been developing a new type of drone, according to The Atlantic. The test drones have been used to successfully deliver foods from nearby farms in Queensland Australia.

Emoji experiment of the week

Last week, Atlantic writer Kelsey Rexroat ate only food immortalised by emoji and one Business Insider reporter was inspired by it. She decided to text only using emojis and, needless to say, it was a long, hard week for her.

Controversial Twitter decision of the week

The social media site’s chief financial officer said this week that the traditional Twitter timeline, organised in reverse chronological order, is “not the most relevant experience for a user”. This is the strongest indication yet that it may move to a more Facebook-style curated feed.
