A cloud-seeding startup did not cause the Texas floods

In the wake of a disaster, it’s not uncommon for people to look for answers anywhere they can find them. The devastating floods in Texas are no exception. There are many potential reasons why so many people were killed by the swiftly rising waters, but one that some people have settled on is a practice known as cloud seeding. They claim that a cloud-seeding startup known as Rainmaker caused the storm to drop more rain than it otherwise would have. However, the data does not back up their concer

In 2024, U.S. regulators fined Citigroup $136 million for falling short in fixing data management issues flagged years prior [1]. In another case, nine Wall Street companies paid $549 million in penalties after employees used unauthorized messaging apps that breached recordkeeping ru

OpenAI Is About to Release an AI Web Browser

OpenAI is on the verge of releasing its own AI-powered web browser, Reuters reports. Expected to launch in the coming weeks, the browser is being released with audacious ambitions. Per the reporting, it's meant to challenge Google Chrome's broad market dominance, with nearly two-thirds of internet users favoring the web browser, or about three billion people. That won't be easy, needless to say. But OpenAI has the prerequisites to at least put a sizable dent in Google's monopoly. Namely, the o

Pa. House passes 'click-to-cancel' subscription bills

The state House has passed a pair of bills aimed at tamping down on dubious subscription services — just as a federal court moved to throw out similar rules proposed by federal regulators. Earlier this month, the House approved a bill cracking down on so-called “negative option” agreements in which consumers are automatically enrolled in a service unless they opt out.
