French startup Linxo just raised $24 million (€20 million) from three financial institutions — Crédit Agricole, Crédit Mutuel Arkéa and MAIF. The company is building a sort of Mint for the French market. Banking apps suck in France. Most of them are just a wrapper around a mobile website. It takes them years to adopt new features, such as fingerprint readers, widgets and more. And…

If you’ve never worked for a complete jerk, consider yourself lucky. Roughly one in five people polled say they’ve experienced bullying in the workplace — and 61 percent of the time, the bully is the person to whom an employee reports directly. None of this is news to Stanford Professor Bob Sutton. We talked with Sutton yesterday about what it means to be an asshole, how to… 
In the aftermath of the Note 7 debacle, many wondered whether the Note line was done for good. It seems that the latest iteration — despite carrying a high starting price of $930 — has delivered a win for the folks at Samsung. Today, they announced that its pace for U.S. pre-orders of the Note8 have eclipsed those of every other Note release to date. Now, generally that’s… 
Last November, YouTube began supporting HDR for those who watch its videos via their TV sets. Today, the company announced it’s expanding the technology to mobile, initially on select Android devices, but not yet on iOS. At launch, YouTube mobile HDR is rolling out to Pixel, LG V30, Samsung Galaxy S8 and Note 8 and Sony Experia XZ Premium devices, through the YouTube mobile app. 
WhatsApp is preparing to finally monetize, and its first move follows the same strategy as Facebook Messenger.

We reached out for comment and a WhatsApp spokesperson told TechCrunch “We’re testing a shortcut that makes it easier… 
TweetDeck Teams – a feature that lets users share access to Twitter accounts, without having to share a password – will now work in the Twitter app for iOS and Android.

Zelle, the PayPal rival backed by over 30 U.S. banks, is preparing to launch its standalone mobile app on Monday, September 12th. The move is meant to give the U.S. banking industry a foothold in the person-to-person payments business, where they’re losing ground to services like PayPal, Venmo, Square Cash, and very soon, Apple’s iMessage, powered by Apple Pay. While banks have… 
The private data of 143 million Equifax “customers” is now available for download. Have no doubt: This means you will be hacked. This means your SIM card can be spoofed. This means someone will try to get into your email and online accounts. This means someone will try to open a credit card in your name. This crass, callow, and lazy treatment of our digital personae cannot stand.

Cinematic camera maker RED has a smartphone on the way – the Hydrogen, which boasts a great video camera as well as a “holographic display” that we know relatively little about, despite MKBHD getting some hands-on time with the phone ahead of its release.
