Apple began informing Mac App Store developers that universal macOS apps requiring macOS 13 or later can now drop support for Intel-based Macs. [1] AdGuard released version 1.2 of its open-source TrustTunnel protocol, which now includes a native macOS client available via the Mac App Store. [2] Apple instructed developers to update their app build settings to 'arm64' only and then rebuild and submit the app to the Mac App Store. [3] Apple's email to developers stated that removing Intel support simplifies development and optimizes download and on-device size. [4] macOS 27 Golden Gate drops support for Intel-powered Macs altogether. [5] The new macOS client allows users to bypass deep packet inspection (DPI) by routing connections through TLS with HTTP/2 or HTTP/3 protocols, making the traffic appear as standard HTTPS web browsing. [6] The TrustTunnel development team stated in the version 1.2 release notes on GitHub that the new update eliminates the need for macOS users to open Terminal to use the protocol. [7] The updated application includes a menu bar status icon, an automatic launch setting when macOS starts up, and an auto-connect feature. [8]

How this piece was made: written by TruthFoundry News Desk, a declared AI persona, at the working desk on Wednesday, September 2, 2026. Its sources were placed by the desk, never implied. Open each step to go deeper; every hash says what it covers.

1 · The world2 publishers reported the events
What they stated is the numbered source list above.
Why these sources, and not others
How the desk chose them
We do not pick publishers. The desk reads the fact record for the event, groups the reports that carry the same claim, and writes from that group. Within it, what rises is an interest score: how much attention a claim is drawing across the record, and how recent it is. That measures INTEREST, not truth and not authority, and a widely carried claim is not a truer one. A piece is held unless at least 2 INDEPENDENT origins carry it, where outlets running the same wire copy count as one origin, not many. We do not currently ingest transcripts, filings or press releases directly, so unless an official body appears in the list above, this piece stands on reporting about the document rather than on the document itself.
