FTC’s click-to-cancel rule has been struck down by federal judges at the eleventh hour

In 2024, the FTC was set to implement the "click to cancel" rule, which would have placed requirements on companies to be forthright about the terms and conditions and exit options for their subscriptions. Since that time, the agency has become a less independent part of the executive branch and in May, it delayed enforcing some parts of this rule to July 14. Today, the entire plan appears to be dead in the water after judges in the US Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals decided to vacate the rule.

Lightfastness Testing of Colored Pencils

Have you ever spent hours on a piece of artwork, only to watch it fade over time? It’s a frustrating reality for many artists, and it all comes down to something called ‘lightfastness’ – a medium’s resistance to fading over time when exposed to light. If you want your work to last, choosing supplies with good lightfast ratings is essential. But how do we know which art supplies will hold up over time? Some brands advertise their materials as “lightfast,” but do their claims hold up in real-worl

Apple formally appeals €500 million DMA fine in the EU

As expected, Apple has today formally appealed the €500 million fine it received from the European Commission for allegedly violating the Digital Markets Act. As a refresher, Apple announced major changes to the App Store in the EU in March 2024, including alternative app marketplaces, new business terms for developers, and support for third-party browser engines. The European Union issued its first fines against Apple and Meta under the DMA in April. The commission said that the fine was due

Pixel 10 Pro’s new display tackles eye strain, but it’s not the leap I wanted

Robert Triggs / Android Authority Google Pixel 10 rumors are coming thick and fast these days as we close in on the launch date in just a few months. Last week, we learned the upcoming phone’s Pro models will likely ship with a 480Hz PWM display — a first for the Pixel series. High PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation) rates aren’t new to smartphone displays; we’ve already seen phones boasting thousands of Hz. The Xiaomi 15 Ultra offers a 1,920Hz PWM rate, the OnePlus 13 clocks in at 2,160Hz, and the H

Key Facts: Prioritizing freedom led to a 13% increase

The Download: India’s AI independence, and predicting future epidemics

Despite its status as a global tech hub, India lags far behind the likes of the US and China when it comes to homegrown AI. That gap has opened largely because India has chronically underinvested in R&D, institutions, and invention. Meanwhile, since no one native language is spoken by the majority of the population, training language models is far more complicated than it is elsewhere. So when the open-source foundation model DeepSeek-R1 suddenly outperformed many global peers, it struck a

Business Class Ain’t What It Used to Be. Don’t Tell First Class

Five years ago, Covid-19 largely brought business travel to a halt. Now companies are getting their employees back in the air, and carriers are reinventing themselves to appeal to post-pandemic fliers willing to pay more. Airlines worldwide are reconfiguring the real estate on their planes by segmenting their cabins into higher-margin business-class seating. They’re beefing up their traditional business cabins to snag higher fares while providing more luxurious premium economy seating for trave

Got a Samsung TV? I recommend changing these 6 settings for the best performance

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Say you recently picked up a shiny new TV. You unbox it like a kid at Christmas and prepare to indulge in all its visual glory. You think to yourself, "This is 2025. TV technology is sizzling, and it's going to look amazing no matter what." So you plug it in and don't take one look at the default settings. Big mistake. Also: How to clear your TV cache (and why it greatly enhances your viewing experience) I've been guilty of it. And I'm OK with that because it's widely accepted

Gene therapy restored hearing in deaf patients

“This is a huge step forward in the genetic treatment of deafness, one that can be life-changing for children and adults,” says Maoli Duan, consultant and docent at the Department of Clinical Science, Intervention and Technology, Karolinska Institutet, Sweden, and one of the study’s corresponding authors. The study comprised ten patients between the ages of 1 and 24 at five hospitals in China, all of whom had a genetic form of deafness or severe hearing impairment caused by mutations in a gene

Airport Lounges Are Sexy Again—if You Can Get In

Let’s be honest: A crowded airport lounge without a seat in sight is usually less appealing than an empty gate area. Over the past decade, an influx of travelers with club access has led to overcrowding, long waitlists, and a diminished (read: not luxurious) experience. However, a version of commercial air travel—often hidden from public view and inaccessible to even premium credit cardholders—has emerged. This more private, pre-flight experience is essential for the affluent business traveler,

Affluent Travelers Are Ditching Business Class for Business Jets

We’re cruising 35,000 feet over the French Riviera, the plane’s wing cutting through billows of white. Below us, the sea is sparkling, and I spot a cluster of yachts anchored along the coastline. A ray of light hits my glass of Champagne and turns it to liquid gold. I take another sip. So this is what it feels like to be on cloud nine. I’m flying from London to St. Tropez with the private aviation company Wheels Up, and for the first time in my life, I don’t want a flight to end. Once you’ve go
