Crash or Crack? Zillow's Legal Storm, CoStar Feud & Housing Market Mayhem FTC slaps Zillow & Redfin with an antitrust lawsuit The FTC accuses Zillow of paying Redfin $100 million to exit the rental advertising space, shutting down competition for nearly a decade. Redfin allegedly gave up ad partnerships, helped Zillow poach employees, and agreed to syndicate only Zillow's listings. What's at stake: advertising pricing power, renters' choice, and whether Big Tech in real estate just got too big. CoStar strikes back: Zillow accused of rampant photo theft CoStar claims Zillow unlawfully used more than 46,000 of its copyrighted photos — even with watermarks — across Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com syndication networks. Zillow has already started removing images at the center of the case. This could become one of the largest copyright battles the real estate industry has ever seen. Real estate data digest — warning signs everywhere • Pending home sales posted their first meaningful monthly decline in months, despite mortgage rates easing slightly. • Luxury home prices jumped 4% to a median of $1.25M, even as overall sales hit the lowest August level in more than a decade. • Starter-home sales are up, as buyers look for affordability in a shifting market.  • The share of mortgages with rates above 6% is at a 10-year high. • Refinance demand plunged 21% as rates hit a 3-week high.  • Even homeowners with sub-4% mortgages are on the move, often turning to new builds to lock in incentives. What this means for agents, buyers & markets going forward We break down the legal risks, competitive threats, and strategic pivots needed to survive in a volatile real estate tech era — plus some bold predictions for what comes next.

This week, we examine the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC's) decisions to drop its appeal of a federal court ruling striking down its proposed non-compete ban and to issue warnings to health care employers about using unreasonable restrictive covenants in employment agreements. FTC Backs Off Non-Compete Ban, Warns Health Care Employers  Although the FTC's decision to abandon its non-compete ban appeal may appear to favor employers, its recent warning letters to health care organizations make clear that regulatory scrutiny is far from over. Key Takeaways for Employers: Regulatory Spotlight on Health Care: The FTC has urged health care employers to review restrictive covenants for fairness and compliance. Patient Choice Concerns: Health care non-competes may limit patient access to providers, particularly in rural areas. Protection of Business Interests: Non-competes should be narrowly tailored to safeguard trade secrets, customer relationships, and other legitimate interests. In this episode, Epstein Becker Green attorneys E. John Steren and David J. Clark discuss the FTC's concerns for health care employers, offer guidance on revising non-compete agreements to withstand legal challenges, and explore alternative strategies to protect business interests. - Visit our site for this week's Other Highlights and links: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw406 Download our Wage & Hour Guide for Employers app: https://www.ebglaw.com/wage-hour-guide-for-employers-app. Subscribe to #WorkforceWednesday: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw-subscribe Visit http://www.EmploymentLawThisWeek.com This podcast is presented by Epstein Becker & Green, P.C.

L'elaborazione del linguaggio naturale umano da parte delle macchine è stata per decenni un'enorme sfida per gli sviluppatori. Assistenti come Google Assistant, Alexa, Siri o Cortana hanno rappresentato i primi tentativi di sviluppare sistemi in grado di riconoscere la voce e interpretare i comandi, ma con risultati spesso deludenti. La situazione è cambiata drasticamente con l'avvento dei Large Language Model, che oggi riescono a comprendere facilmente le intenzioni dell'utente, interpretarle e rispondere di conseguenza. In questa puntata analizziamo come i modelli linguistici comprendono la nostra voce e quali sono le tecnologie che migliorano questa comprensione, esplorando alcuni esempi di prodotti tra cui il nuovo Insta360 WAVE.Nella sezione delle notizie parliamo del possibile addio ai cookie banner, dell'annuncio della NASA sulla data per la missione Artemis II e infine della battaglia legale di Apple contro il Digital Markets Act europeo.--Indice--00:00 - Introduzione01:05 - Verso la fine dei cookie banner?

Is the web breaking under the weight of AI crawlers, platform consolidation, and nonstop security breaches? We dive into the state of browsers, developer burnout, and whether tech regulation can actually keep up. In this panel discussion: We debate if robots.txt and AI licensing standards like RSL can realistically control how AI scrapes the web. The fallout from DIA's acquisition by Atlassian and what it means for indie browser innovation (like the Helium browser, Zen) in a Chromium-dominated world. Why Google's antitrust victory might embolden other tech giants, and what that means for competition. How supply chain attacks like the NPM malware and Shai Hulud worm are exploiting GitHub workflows and package vulnerabilities. The pushback against AI mandates at work, including Coinbase's controversial policy requiring developers to use Copilot.

Chris McGill and Josh Adams join Jeremy to unpack the post-Adam Martin discussion and press into the biggest questions of the moment: Can Topps/Fanatics instantly stand up high-end basketball brands to replace National Treasures/Flawless/Immaculate, or are we headed for high-end uncertainty in a truly new basketball card era? They get into allocations, LCS margins, breaker dynamics, and whether live platforms tilt the field. The trio “eulogizes” the Panini era—gold /10, black 1/1s, shields/logomen, and the rise of case hits (Kaboom, Downtown, Color Blast)—and asks if we're ready for “kabooms without logos.” On the legal front, Josh flags potential antitrust and injunction scenarios, why timelines drag, and how outcomes could reshape competition. Plus: a shout-out to Dave & Adam's for surfacing early MJ 1/1s (and how one just resurfaced on Fanatics Collect). Smart, candid hobby talk with real implications for collectors, shops, and breakers.

This Day in Legal History: Eight Executed for Witchcraft in MassachusettsOn September 22, 1692, eight individuals—six women and two men—were executed for witchcraft in Salem, Massachusetts, marking the final hangings of the infamous Salem Witch Trials. Among the condemned were Martha Corey, Mary Easty, Alice Parker, Mary Parker, Ann Pudeator, Wilmot Redd, Margaret Scott, and Samuel Wardwell. This date is significant as it represents the culmination of a months-long hysteria that began in early 1692, spurred by accusations from young girls and sanctioned by a special court convened to root out witchcraft. The trials relied heavily on "spectral evidence"—testimony that the accused's spirit had appeared to the accusers—which would later be discredited. The executions were carried out at Proctor's Ledge, near Gallows Hill.The public mood began to shift by the fall of 1692. Prominent ministers and members of the community, including Increase Mather, began speaking out against the trials, criticizing the reliance on uncorroborated testimony and the erosion of due process. Following the September 22 executions, no further hangings took place, and the special court was dissolved in October. In early 1693, Governor William Phips pardoned many of the remaining accused.The Salem Witch Trials are now viewed as a stark example of mass hysteria and judicial failure. Legal safeguards we take for granted today, such as the right to confront one's accuser and standards for admissible evidence, were notably absent. Over time, the Massachusetts government issued apologies, and the trials have become a lasting symbol of injustice.President Trump announced the appointment of his former attorney, Lindsey Halligan, as the new U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. The move comes amid growing pressure from Trump on Attorney General Pam Bondi to prosecute his political opponents more aggressively. In social media posts, Trump demanded action against figures such as former FBI Director James Comey, Senator Adam Schiff, and New York Attorney General Letitia James, citing frustration over delays and lack of indictments. Halligan, who previously represented Trump in legal battles following the Mar-a-Lago classified documents search, replaces Erik Siebert, who resigned following Trump's public criticism.Trump praised Bondi's overall performance but hinted at dissatisfaction with the pace of investigations. While he continues to support her publicly, his remarks suggest growing impatience. Bondi has also faced internal criticism over her handling of high-profile issues, including the Jeffrey Epstein files. Halligan's appointment surprised some in the Justice Department, as another official, Mary "Maggie" Cleary, reportedly believed she had been selected for the post.Trump administration sources say Siebert had resisted pushing charges against James and Comey due to weak evidence, which may have led to his ouster. The Eastern District office is currently involved in politically sensitive investigations tied to Trump's previous legal conflicts and campaign inquiries.Trump Picks New Virgina Prosecutor After Scolding Bondi InactionTrump picks former attorney to be top prosecutor, as he pressures Bondi to investigate foes | ReutersGoogle is facing a major antitrust trial in Virginia, where the U.S. Department of Justice and several states are pushing to force the company to sell its ad exchange platform, AdX. The government argues that Google has unlawfully monopolized the web advertising market, particularly by tying AdX to its publisher ad server, which publishers use to manage digital ad inventory. Judge Leonie Brinkema previously ruled that Google holds monopoly power in this area and will now decide what remedies to impose following the trial.The DOJ wants Google to not only divest AdX but also open-source the auction system that determines which ads get placed when users load a webpage. Google has countered that such proposals are impractical and could destabilize the digital advertising ecosystem. The company had earlier considered selling AdX in EU negotiations but is now proposing policy changes to allow more competition on its platforms.The trial has significant implications for the broader tech industry, as part of a larger bipartisan effort to regulate major tech firms including Meta, Amazon, and Apple. Testimony is expected from media industry executives, including former officials from News Corp and DailyMail.com, who have accused Google of prioritizing its own interests in ad placements. If current remedies fail to improve competition within four years, the DOJ wants Google to also sell its publisher ad server.Google seeks to avoid ad tech breakup as antitrust trial begins | ReutersLawyers for Luigi Mangione, the man accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, are asking a federal judge to block the death penalty in his case. In a court filing, they argued that Mangione's due process rights were violated, pointing to a highly publicized and "dehumanizing" perp walk in which he was shown in shackles being escorted from a helicopter. They claim this media spectacle, along with public comments from officials—including U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi—created a prejudicial environment from the outset of the case.Mangione has pleaded not guilty to charges including murder and interstate stalking. Thompson was fatally shot on December 4, 2024, outside a Manhattan hotel during an investment conference. While the killing was widely condemned, public sentiment has been mixed, with some sympathizing with Mangione's frustration over rising healthcare costs. The case has also fueled broader concerns about politically motivated violence following other recent high-profile incidents.Prosecutors have until October 31 to argue in favor of pursuing the death penalty, which would be decided by a jury if Mangione is convicted. His next federal court appearance is December 5. In parallel, Mangione is facing nine state charges, though two terrorism-related counts were recently dismissed. While New York abolished the death penalty in 2004 for state crimes, it remains a legal option in federal prosecutions.Luigi Mangione's lawyers urge judge to block death penalty over insurance CEO's murder | ReutersA U.S. federal court will soon decide whether Danish energy firm Ørsted and its partner Skyborn Renewables can resume construction on the Revolution Wind offshore project, which was halted by the Trump administration in August. Located 15 miles off Rhode Island's coast, the project is designed to power 350,000 homes across Rhode Island and Connecticut. Ørsted, claiming losses of $2 million per day during the stoppage, argues the administration did not follow proper procedures in issuing the stop-work order and is seeking a preliminary injunction from Judge Royce Lamberth.The Interior Department initially cited vague national security concerns through the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management but later claimed Ørsted failed to comply with permit conditions. These included coordination with the U.S. Navy and NOAA to address military and scientific survey impacts. Ørsted disputes these claims, stating it has met the requirements and that the government's objections were raised only after litigation began.The Biden administration approved the project in 2023, but President Trump has moved to roll back offshore wind developments, calling them costly and unsightly. The outcome of the court's decision could impact both the future of the Revolution Wind project and the broader U.S. offshore wind sector.US court weighs Trump halt on Rhode Island offshore wind project | Reuters This is a public episode.

Secondo l’Osservatorio di Unione italiana vini, a luglio il prezzo medio del vino italiano negli Stati Uniti è calato del 13,5% (da 6,52 a 5,64 dollari/litro) per rimanere competitivo nonostante i dazi. Dall’attivazione delle tariffe, i vini italiani hanno subito 61 milioni di dollari di dazi, poco meno della Francia (62,5 milioni). Le imprese italiane stanno assorbendo gran parte dei costi, comprimendo i margini. Uiv denuncia aumenti ingiustificati nei prezzi al dettaglio Usa, frutto di speculazioni su stock pre-dazi. Frescobaldi chiede una promozione straordinaria a partire dal 2026 sui mercati chiave (Usa, Uk, Canada, Brasile). Zoppas (Ice) segnala già 20 iniziative promozionali nel semestre e altre 35 in valutazione. Lollobrigida conferma l’impegno del governo per escludere il vino dai dazi, escludendo misure come gli estirpi. Affrontiamo il tema con Lamberto Frescobaldi, presidente Unione italiana vini (Uiv), e Sandro Boscaini, presidente di Masi Agricola.Trump: c’è accordo con la Cina su TikTok Negli incontri di Madrid tra Usa e Cina è stato raggiunto un accordo quadro su TikTok. Trump ha annunciato che l’intesa sarà completata con Xi Jinping entro il 17 settembre, evitando la chiusura dell’app. Bessent (Tesoro Usa) ha confermato i negoziati. TikTok, di proprietà di ByteDance, è sotto pressione da anni per timori legati a sicurezza nazionale e gestione dei dati. Intanto, l’Antitrust cinese accusa Nvidia di non aver rispettato le condizioni poste nell’acquisizione di Mellanox, aprendo un nuovo fronte nei rapporti economici. Ne parliamo con Alessandro Plateroti, direttore Newsmondo.itL'economia cinese va sempre più pianoAd agosto le vendite al dettaglio in Cina sono cresciute del 3,4% (in calo dal 3,7% di luglio), la produzione industriale al 5,2% (dal 5,7%), mentre la disoccupazione urbana resta al 5,3%. Il rallentamento alimenta il rischio di maggiori esportazioni cinesi in Europa. Il ministro Giorgetti avverte che il vero pericolo per l’Italia non sono i dazi Usa, ma la concorrenza asiatica: l’export italiano verso gli Usa è cresciuto del 6% nel semestre, mentre cala verso la Cina e altri paesi asiatici, che al contrario esportano massicciamente in Europa.Il commento è di Giuliano Noci, professore ordinario al Politecnico di Milano e prorettore del Polo territoriale cinese dell’Ateneo

In Episode 438 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Charles Calomiris, former Chief Economist at the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, about his forthcoming paper “How Stablecoins Will Transform Banking,” which is based on a presentation he delivered at the Hoover Institution's annual monetary policy conference this past May. Demetri and Charles spend the first hour of their conversation laying out what stablecoins are and why Calomiris believes they are poised to transform our standard units of account through a revolution in real-time payments and a wholesale reinvention of the banking system, monetary policy, and the role of the dollar internationally. They discuss the significance of the recently signed “Genius Act,” explore the importance of bank charter modernization, and consider the broad public benefits of separating loans from deposits—ranging from faster, programmable settlement and greater competition in financial services to a reduction of systemic risk in areas where bank lending has become increasingly overconcentrated. The second hour is devoted to exploring some of the most important short- and long-term implications of stablecoin adoption, including: (1) Antitrust concerns over natural monopolies and network effects in stablecoin payment rails. (2) Near-term boost to demand for U.S. government debt, including the potential issuance of tokenized bills for gross real-time settlement. (3) Longer-term prospect of moving away from the dollar as the primary unit of account toward consumer bundles tied to assets, goods, and services that better reflect people's spending patterns—along with the implications for monetary policy, seigniorage, capital flows, and the preservation of purchasing power in these new currencies.

Forcing business to bow to non-objective laws violates America's individualist ideals.

Innovation is central to long-term economic welfare and deserves greater emphasis in antitrust policy. But can U.S. antitrust law be reshaped to be more innovation-centric? Professor Richard Gilbert joins hosts Anora Wang and Panos Dimitrellos to examine the relationship between competition and innovation, how agencies and courts have recently treated innovation, and practical tools for assessing innovation effects in mergers and conduct cases. Listen to this episode to learn more about navigating the shift toward an innovation-centric antitrust regime, the empirical methods that can reveal innovation harms, and how to balance short-term price effects against long-term technological progress.

The Trump family took their digital token public this week. Plus, artificial intelligence is generating angst in Silicon Valley.But first, Google's antitrust case over its search business ended this week with a punishment far short of what the government sought. Google could have been forced to sell off its Chrome browser or stop paying Apple and others to make it the default search engine. Instead, a federal judge said all the company has to do is share some of its search data with rivals.Marketplace's Nova Safo spoke with Natasha Mascarenhas, a reporter at The Information, to discuss all of this and more.
