Recently, I wrote about how were seeing a general softening of demand for travel to the United States, for a variety of reasons. Theres no denying that the most contentious situation is between Canada and the United States, and we now have some data that shows just how extreme the change in demand is. Transborder flight bookings are down by 70%+ Weve known that travel demand between Canada and the United States has been decreasing, both by air and by roads.

Google is planning a major change to the way it develops new versions of the Android operating system. Since the beginning , large swaths of the software have been developed in public-facing channels, but that will no longer be the case. This does not mean Android is shedding its open source roots, but the process won't be as transparent. Google has confirmed to Android Authority that all Android development work going forward will take place in Google's internal branch.
