Good morning! In New York, it will be hot, and humid, with late t-storms possible. Let's lean into the news.

  1. Sprint is giving up on its pursuit of T-Mobile.
  2. Sprint CEO Dan Hesse is stepping down and board member Marcelo Claure is taking over. Claure is head of Brightstar, a wireless distribution company.
  3. Apple will announce the iPhone 6 on Tuesday, September 9. This suggests a September 19 launch for the phone.
  4. Here's everything you need to know about the iPhone 6.
  5. Apple and Samsung settled all of their patent litigation outside of the United States. This is a big deal. These two had been fighting for years.
  6. A Russian gang has stolen 1.2 billion usernames and passwords, and more than 500 million email addresses.
  7. Greg Coleman is joining BuzzFeed as its new president. Coleman previously worked for Yahoo, Huffington Post, AOL, and Criteo. He's pretty good at getting and picking jobs.
  8. Rupert Murdoch pulled his bid to buy Time Warner. This sent Time Warner's stock crashing, and Fox's stock soaring. We're told this isn't just a negotiating tactic. He's really done with the bidding.
  9. Meet Marques Lee Brown, a 20 year-old, who built a huge following on YouTube and is one of the best tech reviews in the world.
  10. A short blurb here won't do this justice, so just go read the resignation letter of the CEO of hot New York startup MongoDB. He's stepping down to spend more time with his family, and in this case it's not a cliche.
