Apple announced a voluntary recall for International AC Adapters.

Heads up, world travelers. If you have an Apple AC plug adapter or Travel Adapter kit meant for use in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Continental Europe, New Zealand and South Korea, you might want to talk to the folks in Cupertino about getting a replacement.

The company just announced a voluntary recall of those adapters — ones that shipped with Macs and iDevices between 2003 and 2015 — because there's a risk their prongs could break and shock someone. Apple says it's aware of 12 such incidents around the world, so check out the company's recall site to see if yours is one of the problematic bunch.

To be clear, if you've got the two-prong plugs used in the US and China, or the bulky three-prong affair for the UK and Hong Kong, you're alright. It's just the long, round-pronged adapters mostly seen in Europe and the angled prongs used in Australia that you need to be on the lookout for. Assuming you do fall into the former camp, check your plug adapter for "either four or five characters or no characters on the inside slot where it attaches to the main Apple power adapter."
If you've got those telltale characters, you'll be able to visit an Apple Store for a replacement, or request one online.

While Apple now permits ad-blockers for Safari, the banned apps also block ads from native apps by installing their own "root certificates" and shunting all traffic through a VPN. From there, they read the unencrypted traffic and remove ads, provided you enable the feature.

By virtually any measure, Apple posted solid financial results. But for the investors who follow the company, solid just isn't good enough.

Apple's third quarter is typically its slowest. It's sandwiched between the Dad-and-grad shopping season, and the back-to-school and iPhone launch. Yet Apple on Tuesday posted a quarter that most of its rivals would be ecstatic to report. Its revenue was a third higher than the same period last year. It sold 47.5 million iPhones, 35 percent more than a year ago. Sales in China more than doubled. And Apple said it would generate $49 billion to $51 billion in revenue in the current quarter.
