The big picture: While people have been discussing the automotive market as the next big tech-device opportunity for some time now, in reality, today's cars haven't advanced as much as many had hoped. Sure, we have larger, more sophisticated screens and some assisted driving features, but we've yet to reach the kind of transformative, smartphone-level impact in most of the vehicles we're buying or driving today. A significant part of the issue lies in the long and tedious automotive development

In New York court on May 20th, lawyers for nonprofit Everytown for Gun Safety argued that Meta, Amazon, Discord, Snap, 4chan, and other social media companies all bear responsibility for radicalizing a mass shooter.

Privacy and digital rights advocates are raising alarms over a law that many would expect them to cheer: a federal crackdown on revenge porn and AI-generated deepfakes. The newly signed Take It Down Act makes it illegal to publish nonconsensual explicit images — real or AI-generated — and gives platforms just 48 hours to comply with a victim’s takedown request or face liability. While widely praised as a long-overdue win for victims, experts have also warned its vague language, lax standards fo

On Friday, Spotify changed course on its plans, but did not completely eschew the idea. Now, play counts will only appear on shows with at least 50,000 plays each.

If there is one certainty of social media in 2025, it’s this: rage clicks rule. Hyperbole, hate, brash deception—it’s all par for the course—and often rewarded with virality. But Sez Us, an app just launched by veteran Democratic strategist Joe Trippi, believes it’s possible to change that, by punishing users who shitpost for the sake of provocation. The timing may be just right. America is entering an age of oligarchy with a rising wave of right-wing extremism taking hold of global politics.
