Should the company switch its trucks, cars, and vans to electric? It’s a question that plenty of businesses operating fleets of vehicles—in industries like delivery, health care, cable companies, and utilities—are thinking through. Eighty-seven percent of fleet operators polled by Cox Automotive last year said they were expecting to bring aboard some battery-powered vehicles in the next five years.

No Clicks, No Content: The Unsustainable Future of AI Search

AI companies are causing a content drought that will eventually starve them. In a recent article, The Economist didn’t mince words: “AI is killing the web.” Published last month, the piece raises urgent questions about how artificial intelligence is reshaping the internet as we know it: ChatGPT, Google, and its competitors are rapidly diverting traffic from publishers. Publishers are fighting to survive through lawsuits, partnerships, paywalls, and micropayments. It’s pretty bleak, but unfortun

“When will the internet bubble burst?” the cover story of Barron’s asked on March 20 2000. “That unpleasant popping sound is likely to be heard before the end of this year.” In fact, that same day, one of the most high-profile tech businesses of the moment suffered a share price plunge of 60pc. A flood of other collapses followed, evaporating trillions of dollars. Now, some on Wall Street fear that “unpleasant popping sound” may be imminent for the artificial intelligence (AI) boom.

Trump’s endless new tariffs are threatening businesses — and you

theverge.com Lauren Feiner 2025-12-02 00:45:46

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: a new wave of tariffs are taking effect today. As Trump has ratcheted up pressure on foreign imports over the last few months, some Americans might not have noticed a marked difference in what they’re spending, especially as huge tax hikes have been announced and then delayed or cut back. Trump’s perpetually changing tariff deadlines and rates led a Financial Times columnist to coin the phrase “TACO trade,” short for “Trump Always Chickens Out.” But expe

Companies Find Potential Way to Avoid Trump Tariffs and Keep Prices Low

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-12-04 00:35:50

Donald Trump’s tariff regime has been scoffed at by business leaders and world economists (Larry Summers, for instance, called it both “crazy” and “dumb”), but the White House hasn’t backed down from its highly unconventional program. The tariffs, which are taxing American businesses on their imports, are reportedly generating billions of dollars in revenue for the federal government on a month-to-month basis. Many businesses aren’t happy about it, however, and now several lawsuits are threateni

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

engadget.com Unknown 2026-01-29 15:35:03

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.
