“Is Qonto a real bank?” is one of the top suggested questions in Google searches about the French fintech startup. The answer is no, but it could change: Qonto has filed for a banking license in France, CEO Alexandre Prot revealed. Qonto, which targets European freelancers and SMBs, currently operates with a payment institution license it obtained in 2018, and which already enabled it to introduce a form of buy now, pay later (BNPL).

‘We Live in a Surveillance State’: Reddit Users Explode Over Reports of ICE’s New Face and Fingerprint Scanning App

gizmodo.com Luc Olinga 2025-08-19 19:55:42

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is reportedly using a new tool called Mobile Fortify, a smartphone-based facial recognition and fingerprint scanning app that allows agents to identify people in real time using only a phone camera. The tool taps into the same biometric system used by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) at ports of entry. But ICE is now using it inside the U.S., in field operations across the country. According to internal ICE emails reviewed by 404 Media, the app

How Much Will the iPhone 17 Cost? End of Tariff Pause Puts $2,400 in Play

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-08-20 01:02:00

The rumored iPhone 17 is likely to cost more than the iPhone 16. Let's just get that out of the way up front. But why it may cost more -- and how much more -- is still in question. President Donald Trump's self-imposed deadline of July 9 for the "reciprocal tariff" pause could finally cap his months-long trade roller coaster, which has resulted so far in tentative trade deals with Vietnam, the UK and China. However, there's still plenty up in the air, including how tariffs could impact a new iP

Tesla Bros Are Begging Polymarket to Change the Rules So Elon Musk's Disastrous Robotaxi Launch Doesn't Lose Them a Ton of Money

Tesla bros, it turns out, can be pretty sore losers. On the crypto-based prediction hub Polymarket, some of the automaker's diehards can't accept that they're about to lose a boatload of money after betting that their hero Elon Musk would launch a public robotaxi service in June. Which he didn't, by the way; the trial is limited to a few people with an invite, and beyond that, the most notable thing it's accomplished was earn the attention of federal regulators for flubs like violating traffic

Betting on Elon Musk fulfilling one of his promises is one hell of a risky venture.
