In yet another blow to big tech, the EU is charging Meta with breaching the bloc’s sweeping online competition rules, known as the Digital Markets Act (DMA). Alongside Google and Apple, Meta is among the tech giants (designated as “gatekeepers“) required to comply with the landmark law as of March this year. A mere two weeks after the act kicked in, the European Commission opened an investigation into all three companies, expressing concerns that the measures they introduced were falling short of complying.

The EV market is hotter than ever in the US, but there are only a handful of options for families who need three rows of seats and tons of storage space. There's the Rivian R1S, a beautiful and well-reviewed car, but one that's firmly in luxury territory with a starting price of $75,900. Tesla's Model X is similarly pricey, and its tiny rear row isn't suited for adults (the smaller... Read more ›

Netflix's nascent plans to produce a Horizon Zero Dawn series are "no longer moving forward", it's claimed, following the publication of a Rolling Stone report this week that detailed accusations of "bulling, manipulative and retaliatory behaviour" by its planned showrunner Steve Blackman. The report's allegations relate to Blackman's previous work for Netflix as showrunner on hit series The Umbrella Academy. Blackman has responded to the claims from 12 former colleagues... Read more ›

Lynn Conway may hold the record for longest delay between being unfairly fired and receiving an apology for it. In 1968, IBM — a company that now covers its logo in a rainbow flag each June for Pride Month — fired Conway when she expressed her intention to transition. She died on June 9, 2024 at age 86. IBM eventually apologised to the now-famous computing expert, but only 52 years... Read more ›

The UK leads Europe for generative AI patent filings — but Germany is closing the gap. That’s according to new data from the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO), a UN agency that tracks patents. WIPO today released a report on 54,000 GenAI inventions from the decade ending in 2023. Over 25% of them emerged in the last year alone. The findings show that China has built a wide lead in...

The past couple of years have seen businesses scramble to implement AI, often even before they... Read more ›

Claims of the next fastest-charging EV have become so common, they’ve almost completely lost their meaning. But Nyobolt might just have something to brag about. The UK startup has successfully charged an EV from 10% to 80% in just four minutes and 37 seconds — just enough time to grab a coffee. Nyobolt achieved the feat at a race track in Bedford, England on Thursday, using its own specially designed... Read more ›

As far back as December 2013, the European Council called for the member states of the European Union to develop their defence capabilities and so enhance the “strategic autonomy” of the EU. Since then, the idea that the term encapsulates has come up time and again. In 2016, it was made part of the EU’s Global Strategy doctrine. It was promoted again in late 2020, championed in particular by France.... Read more ›
