The DOJ’s decision to drop claims that TikTok misled US consumers about data security is truly baffling.

Demonstrating that ByteDance engineers in China can access TikTok user data is an open-and-shut case.

This is a significant missed opportunity.

Really do not know why this basic dynamic isn't a larger part of vibecession discourse. GOP consumer sentiment never recovered even a little bit post-COVID because Biden won the election. At best the plunge has stabilized. Sentiment is not going anywhere. www.reuters.com/graphics/USA...

New: Google laid off 1/3 of the team which handles law enforcement requests. “Staffing shortages ... had slowed Google’s ability to respond to requests ... significant backlog and increased risk to the integrity and security of sensitive user data.”

Has gotten less attention in the Joe Kahn interview, but the idea that campus politics, and student protests in particular is "a giant story" is framed as a cultural issue.
This framing draw attention away from the actual subject of the protest - the war in Gaza.

Every single story about carbon offsets or CCS is mind-boggling, but when they're smooshed together it's truly something else.

Shell sold DOUBLE the number offsets from emissions avoided by a carbon capture facility.

Also: it was allowed. They originally wanted to sell TRIPLE.

Maybe you were walking around NYC thinking that you were going crazy because surely it couldn't be that the NYPD just ignores and exacerbates the unsafe and illegal conditions produced by parking permit abuse. If so, this new report will bring you comfort!

This one way to headline the ICJ decision. Another would be to recognize that court found it has jurisdiction over the conflict in Gaza under the genocide convention and denied Israel’s request to dismiss the case, allowing it to proceed.
