Legal win

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-26 04:55:23

Just got word that the court dismissed several of WP Engine and Silver Lake’s most serious claims — antitrust, monopolization, and extortion have been knocked out! These were by far the most significant and far-reaching allegations in the case and with today’s decision the case is narrowed significantly. This is a win not just for us but for all open source maintainers and contributors. Huge thanks to the folks at Gibson and Automattic who have been working on this. With respect to any remainin

An embarrassing failure of the US patent system: Nintendo's latest patents

news.ycombinator.com Lincoln Carpenter 2025-09-26 22:11:50

The last 10 days have brought a string of patent wins for Nintendo. Yesterday, the company was granted US patent 12,409,387, a patent covering riding and flying systems similar to those Nintendo has been criticized for claiming in its Palworld lawsuit (via Gamesfray). Last week, however, Nintendo received a more troubling weapon in its legal arsenal: US patent 12,403,397, a patent on summoning and battling characters that the United States Patent and Trademark Office granted with alarmingly litt

Medicare Will Start Paying AI Companies a Share of Any Claims They Automatically Reject

futurism.com Unknown 2025-10-14 14:57:34

It's long been the practice of private health insurers to require "prior authorization" before you can get the treatment you need. Often, they'll try to deny as many of these claims as possible — including with the use of AI models. Government-backed plans like Medicare, however, have tended to cover what private insurers don't, and without the laborious application process. But that could be poised to change. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services said it'll experiment with its own ve

Samsung’s trifold might be launching pretty soon

theverge.com Dominic Preston 2025-10-16 11:38:26

We know officially that Samsung is planning to launch its first trifold phone this year, and recent rumors suggest that might mean either this month or next. Just don’t expect it to appear at this week’s Unpacked event, which promises products ranging from “premium AI tablets to the newest member of the Galaxy S25 family.” Korea’s ET News reports today that the new foldable could be unveiled as early as this month, with the phone actually on sale in November.

Trump Mobile is promoting its smartphone with terribly edited photos of other brands' products

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-01 14:29:43

Since it was announced in June, Trump Mobile has committed to an increasingly-surreal smoke-and-mirrors approach to its promised T1 smartphone. Despite the initial claims that the phone would be made in the United States, it seemed highly unlikely from the start that it was accurate. The "Made in USA" claims were quietly removed from the Trump Mobile website at a later date. AppleInsider spotted the latest bizarre wrinkle to this story, which is that the actual phone still does not exist. The p

There's a new smartphone promising to protect your privacy: the Up Phone, from a company called Unplugged. Except it's not new. Unplugged has been around for a few years—the company was cofounded by Erik Prince, the founder of private military company Blackwater—and it originally announced the Up Phone in 2023. But this week, the company claims it's “relaunching” the phone, under new leadership. Like the original, the Up Phone's UnpluggedOS (formerly LibertOS) is built on the Android Open Sourc

Eastman Kodak is denying reports that it’s shutting down. On Wednesday, media outlets like CNN and CNBC detailed the company’s ongoing financial challenges, including statements made in its earnings report that warned investors it didn’t have “committed financing or available liquidity” to meet debt obligations coming due within 12 months. However, Kodak quickly published a press release to counter these claims, noting it has “no plans to cease operations” or file for bankruptcy protection. Ra

Apple pushes back on Fintiv’s latest litigious attempt to profit off Apple Pay

Fintiv, a firm you’ve probably only heard of in the context of patent litigation, is once again suing Apple over Apple Pay. Apple’s secure mobile payment solution launched over a decade ago in 2014. Fintiv has been unsuccessfully suing Apple over Apple Pay since 2018. Apple is not hiding its frustration.

Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Samsung revise advertising over exaggerated AI claims after regulator scrutiny

Cutting corners: As the landscape for AI-powered products evolves, companies face growing demands to deliver not just innovation, but clearly supported and honestly communicated claims about what their technology can actually do. "When you market AI like magic, you're going to invite scrutiny," said George Heudorfer, an adjunct professor at the University of New Haven's Pompea College of Business.

The Pixel Watch 4 might not become e-waste if you damage it

Google is hosting its annual Pixel event on August 20, which will likely feature the Pixel 10 series and the Pixel Watch 4. The new Pixel phones are expected to retain the physical design of last year's phones, but a new report claims Google's smartwatch is getting an important hardware upgrade—it may finally be repairable. Google has stuck with the same design for all three generations of the Pixel Watch, making changes only to internal components, displays, and charging. Even with the year-to

The US Department of Justice notched an initial win in its antitrust case against Apple today, with a federal judge rejecting Apple’s attempt to dismiss the lawsuit outright.

Time Is Three-Dimensional and Space Is Just a Side Effect, Scientist Says

futurism.com Unknown 2026-02-14 14:45:06

A fringe new theory suggests that time is the fundamental structure of the physical universe, and space is merely a byproduct. According to Gunther Kletetschka, a geologist — not a physicist, you'll note, but more on that later — from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, time is three-dimensional and the dimensions of space are an emergent property of it, a press release from the university explains. "These three time dimensions are the primary fabric of everything, like the canvas of a paintin

The move doesn’t end the case entirely – Getty is still pursuing other claims as well as a separate lawsuit in the U.S. – but it underscores the gray areas surrounding the future of content ownership and usage in the age of generative AI.

A nasal spray company wants to make it harder for the FTC to police health claims

In the midst of the covid-19 pandemic, a health products company called Xlear began advertising its saline nasal spray to people desperately searching for ways to protect themselves from a new virus. In its marketing, Xlear pointed to studies that it said supported the idea that ingredients in the spray could block viruses from sticking to the nasal cavity. Based on its interpretation of the science, Xlear promoted the product as one part of a “layered defense” against contracting covid. In 202

Microsoft Majorana 1 chip promises real quantum computing within years, not decades

Forward-looking: Microsoft has unveiled a new quantum chip called "Majorana 1" that claims will make scaled, real-world quantum computing a reality in just years rather than decades. It's palm-sized and has a delightfully retro look yet Microsoft claims it will eventually pack more theoretical computing power than all the world's current classical computers combined. The Majorana 1 comes after nearly two decades of research. The big claims come thanks to Microsoft's unique approach to the quant
