Razer Made Millions From Selling An RGB Mask

Razer is set to refund $1.1 million to consumers who bought its Zephyr face mask, which was advertised as having N95-grade filters—a claim the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has challenged.

The FTC asserts that Razer did not test the filters to N95 standards, leading to a proposed settlement after consumer complaints and negative media attention.

It was Initially marketed as a high-tech, cyberpunk-style mask during the COVID-19 pandemic, but the Zephyr mask was later clarified by Razer not to be a medical device or personal protective equipment.

The FTC’s action also includes a $100,000 civil penalty against Razer and a prohibition against making unsubstantiated health-related claims, particularly regarding COVID-19.

Google Building A Fart Button Into Android

Google is updating its Phone app on Android to include “Audio Emoji,” a feature that lets users play sound effects during calls, including clapping, laughing, crying, partying, a drum sting, and a fart sound.

These effects can be accessed via a button in the dialer during a call, and aims to add a playful element to phone conversations, though its practical utility may be limited after the novelty wears off.

With Google I/O approaching on May 14th, further details on this quirky addition are expected.
