When we mention the company and brand Dyson, you might be thinking of the company’s fancy hi-tech fans, hairdryers, or lights, but did you also know that the company was also working on an electric car of their own? If you did not, yes, Dyson was working on it before they shelved it, and now they have taken the wraps off on what could have been.

This was revealed during James Dyson’s exclusive interview for The Sunday Times Rich List where for the first time, Dyson managed to top the 2020 Rich List where it was estimated that he has a £16.2 billion fortune. During the interview, Dyson revealed that the company’s seven-seater electric car, codenamed N526, had an impressive range of 600 miles, putting quite literally miles ahead of the competition from the likes of Tesla.

He also revealed that the vehicle was capable of going from zero to 62mph in 4.8 seconds, and could reach top speeds of 125mph. Dyson also claims to have spent about £500 million of his own money to fund the project, but ultimately found that it was impossible to make it commercially viable and had to abandon it in October last year.

We’re not sure what the market would have looked like had Dyson entered the electric car space, but with a range of 600 miles, it would most certainly have addressed some of the concerns that people might have when adopting an electric car for the first time.

Third-party email apps are great as more often than not, they come with powerful features that default email apps do not. Unfortunately, in the case of the popular Edison email app, it seems that a recent update has resulted in a bug that has allowed the emails of other users show up in the inboxes of another user.

This is (no) thanks to a new feature in the Edison email app that allows users to sync messages. However, as some users have reported, for some reason it has synced the messages belonging to other users who also use the app, thus allowing some emails to be read by complete strangers.

According to the developer, it seems that this might have only affected a “small percent” of their users, and they have since rolled back the update to prevent it from spreading further. However, even then we imagine that it might be too late because there’s really no way for someone to “unread” the email message belonging to someone else.

We are urgently working to resolve this technical problem in Edison Mail. Yesterday a software update rolled out to a small percent of our users. We have reverted that now and are reaching out to users who have been impacted as fast as we can.

The developers are also stressing that this is by no means a data breach and that they have not been hacked. They have also since reached out to users affected by this, but like we said, we’re not sure what can be done once an email has been ready. We can only hope that the messages that were accidentally synced to another account did not contain sensitive information.
