The EU has ordered Meta to grant rival AI chatbots free access to its WhatsApp platform within five working days, while it completes its antitrust investigation into the company. Meta says it will appeal, accusing the EU of "regulatory overreach". Meanwhile, Brussels hits back at Apple after the iPhone maker blamed the EU's Digital Marketing Act for its decision to delay the rollout of its new Siri AI in Europe. 

The Wall Street Journal reported that Chinese AI start-up StepFun is set to file for a Hong Kong IPO. Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing's Chapter 18C, introduced in 2023, allows specialist technology companies to list with criteria tied to market capitalization, revenue for commercial applicants, and sustained R&D investment. SenseTime's 2021 Hong Kong listing, which raised about $740 million, showed the exchange can list sensitive technologies under robust disclosure standards. China's Cyberspace Administration issued generative AI rules in 2023 that require lawful training data, model safety, and security assessments for public-facing services. U.S. export controls have restricted access in China to Nvidia's advanced accelerators, pushing AI firms to optimize compute strategies. Investors will assess compliance, customer concentration, recurring revenue, and compute funding plans if StepFun proceeds with a filing.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

PODCAST ABOVE: On this insightful and legally detailed episode of the WGNS Monthly District Attorney Show, host J. Paul Newman welcomes Rutherford County District Attorney Gen

Nobody warns you that some relationships feel spiritually significant because they successfully reopen the oldest psychological crime scene inside you. Not heal it. Not resolve it. Reopen it. That explains why some people meet somebody and immediately feel “alive” after years of emotional numbness. The body mistakes reactivation for resurrection. The nervous system mistakes emotional volatility for depth. The wounded psyche mistakes recognition for destiny. Suddenly the person who destabilizes your sleep, concentration, self-worth, emotional regulation, and peace somehow becomes the person you call “home.” That deserves investigation. Because healthy love rarely introduces itself like a hostage negotiation with your central nervous system. Tonight's conversation dismantles the seductive mythology surrounding chemistry, soulmates, and romantic intuition by asking an almost offensive question: What if many people do not choose partners from wholeness at all? What if they choose from emotional muscle memory? Not conscious preference. Conditioned familiarity. The body remembers environments the mind claims it wants to escape. A child raised around emotional inconsistency may eventually grow into an adult whose biology associates unpredictability with emotional importance. A person who spent childhood chasing unavailable affection may later experience emotional availability as strangely flat while becoming intensely magnetized toward people requiring pursuit, performance, proving, rescuing, or survival

Former U.S. Senator Jim Talent breaks down escalating U.S. pressure on Iran, arguing that recent military strikes combined with economic throttling are aimed at forcing control over strategic maritime routes rather than full-scale escalation. He suggests the next phase could involve further targeted strikes designed to secure passage through key waterways, while coalition concerns among Gulf allies are shaping the pace of action due to fears of retaliatory missile attacks on regional infrastructure. The discussion also touches on the broader geopolitical posture under President Trump, including economic pressure campaigns in Cuba and the risk of overextension across multiple theaters. Talent emphasizes that while military objectives against Iran's capabilities have been largely achieved in his view, the remaining challenge is managing regional stability and energy market impacts tied to shipping disruptions and oil flow.

The focus of the US-Iran war rests once again on the Strait of Hormuz, is there any way to get it open again? Since Donald Trump cancelled Project Freedom, Iran's chokehold on the vital waterway is as tight as ever. But James Parkin has some ideas. The former Royal Navy rear admiral was in charge of the task force that broke the last attempted IRGC shut down in 2019, and tells Roland Oliphant that the US could do it again - if it really wanted to. He also explains what it is like fighting the fanatical but talented sailors of the IRGC navy, and why he thinks their claims to have mined the Strait are probably lies. Plus, The Telegraph's foreign correspondent Akhtar Makoii gives the view from Iran amid growing expectations of an imminent peace deal today, and Venetia Rainey looks at why Israel has suddenly bombed Beirut despite a ceasefire. They also discuss the latest news of extensive damage to American bases in the Gulf and the long-term implications.

The Security Council is weighing yet another U.S.-backed resolution on the Strait of Hormuz that is probably doomed from the start. In this first segment of To Save Us From Hell, Anjali and Mark explain the flawed logic behind this latest effort to return the Strait to its status quo ante bellum. Then, Mark discusses what he learned covering the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Review Conference, underway at the UN — the major multilateral nuclear security gathering that happens every five years. Finally, Anjali and Mark consider the latest American effort to withhold money it already owes to the UN — threatening to plunge the organization into an even deeper fiscal crisis.

In this episode, host Zach Urness talks with the U.S. Forest Service about when the Opal Creek area will finally reopen. The 35,000-acre wilderness and recreation area was severely burned and closed by the Beachie Creek Fire in September of 2020. It was hoped that popular sites such as Three Pools, Little North Santiam Trail and Henline Falls would reopen this summer, but those plans have been delayed. Acting Detroit district ranger Jonah Gladney and deputy forest supervisor Michelle King explained what's happening and when the Opal Creek area will finally reopen.

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast: 1) President Trump said the US will help ships stranded in the Persian Gulf transit the Strait of Hormuz, describing it as a “humanitarian gesture” and testing his ability to restore traffic through the strategic waterway for the first time since the war with Iran began. The operation, dubbed Project Freedom, was set to begin on Monday with the US military pledging to provide support, including the use of guided-missile destroyers, aircraft and drones. “The Ship movement is merely meant to free up people, companies, and Countries that have done absolutely nothing wrong — They are victims of circumstance,” Trump wrote late Sunday in a social media post. “If, in any way, this Humanitarian process is interfered with, that interference will, unfortunately, have to be dealt with forcefully.” The plan has left shipping executives perplexed, with few details provided by the president. Iran’s military, after Trump’s announcement, said US forces would be attacked if they entered the Strait of Hormuz, according to a statement carried by Iranian broadcaster Press TV. 2) Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said he doesn’t think the US government needs to provide financial lifelines for now to other low-cost carriers, following the collapse of Spirit Aviation Holdings Inc. “At this point, I don’t think it’s necessary,” he said during a press conference Saturday at Newark Liberty International Airport. “They do have access to cash.” Duffy spoke hours after Spirit ceased operations, leaving passengers and employees stranded across the US. Earlier in the day, he announced measures to support those passengers, saying several carriers including United Airlines Holdings Inc., Delta Air Lines Inc., Southwest Airlines Co., American Airlines Group Inc. and JetBlue Airways Corp. agreed to cap prices or reduce fares for customers impacted by the shutdown. 3) GameStop Corp. is proposing to buy eBay Inc. for about $56 billion in cash and stock, a bold attempt by Ryan Cohen to take over a storied e-commerce name several times larger. The gaming retail chain offered $125 per share in cash and stock for the online marketplace, or about a 20% premium to its Friday close. GameStop, which built a roughly 5% stake in eBay, said it’s secured an initial, non-binding “highly confident letter” from TD Bank to provide about $20 billion of debt financing. In a memo to investors Sunday, Cohen’s company pledged to find some $2 billion of annual savings within 12 months of closing. The takeover bid follows the surprising ascent of GameStop, a chain of video game outlets that shrank its brick-and-mortar footprint after gamers increasingly bought software in digital stores. In 2021, it became the center of a retail-investor frenzy. Michael Burry, the Scion Asset Management head who rose to prominence after a winning wager against mortgages ahead of the 2008 financial crisis, helped fuel GameStop’s rally by taking a bullish stance on the firm around 2019.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

President Donald Trump announced a major breakthrough, stating, “I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks,” after Iran agreed to the complete, immediate, and safe opening of the Strait of Hormuz. He explained the move came “based on conversations with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir of Pakistan,” who requested that he hold off the destructive force, while noting that Iran provided a 10-point proposal he called a “workable basis” for negotiations. Trump emphasized progress by saying, “Almost all of the various points of past contention have been agreed to between the United States and Iran, but a two week period will allow the Agreement to be finalized and consummated.” He framed the ceasefire positively, adding that it is “an Honor to have this Longterm problem close to resolution” on behalf of the United States and countries in the Middle East. In classic Trump fashion, the deal reflects his approach of achieving results through strength, turning a deadline for potential total destruction into a window for lasting peace in the region.
