In an extraordinary breach, a journalist was mistakenly included in a Signal group chat where top Trump officials coordinated upcoming military strikes on Yemen. Using Signal—a public messaging app—rather than burdensome government-secured systems suggests a deliberate choice to avoid painful legacy systems; unless something has changed, I do not think the app is approved for classified communications. While waivers can be applied case-by-case, talking around a subject does not necessarily mean it’s unclassified. This is going to have good blowback, and rightfully so. -Thinking of buying a Starlink?

Apple and Google are rebelling against the EU’s Digital Markets Act, claiming new interoperability and openness rules hurt consumers and innovation. The European Commission says these tech giants are abusing market dominance, with Google facing potential fines for favoring its services and restricting developer freedom. Apple is under pressure to make iOS more compatible with third-party devices. The tech giants argue the rules compromise security and user experience, highlighting growing tensions between US firms and European regulators. -Thinking of buying a Starlink?

Promo Code: cjcgeek1w Support the show by becoming a Geek News Central Insider Full Summary: In this episode, host Todd Cochrane discusses the lead story regarding Apple and Google’s resistance to the EU’s Digital Markets Act (DMA). Both tech giants argue that new rules demanding greater interoperability and openness could harm consumers and stifle innovation. The European Commission has suggested that these companies are abusing their market dominance, with Google facing potential fines for favoring its services and limiting developer freedom. Cochrane points out that while Apple is not under immediate pressure to make its iOS more compatible with third-party devices, it contends that the new regulations may compromise user security and experience. He expresses skepticism about the EU’s motives, suggesting that similar U.S. interoperability demands might also be warranted. Cochrane elaborates on the implications of this regulatory scrutiny, particularly for Google, which is under investigation for its search engine practices and could face fines based on its annual revenue. Moving on, Cochrane welcomes listeners to episode 1,808 and acknowledges the show’s sponsor, GoDaddy, offering exclusive deals for listeners. He encourages support for the podcast and mentions opportunities for listeners to engage with the community through the website and social media. He continues with varied tech news stories, including a warning for Mac users about a known Windows phishing attack, a significant data breach involving stalkerware affecting millions, updates on YouTube’s resolution quality issues, and WhatsApp fixing a critical security flaw. Cochrane also discusses international issues, such as changes in intelligence sharing among the Five Eyes alliance and NASA’s upcoming Starliner test flight. He reviews news about breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, the launch of new Chromebooks, TikTok’s initiative for Amber Alerts, foldable tech innovations from Apple, and Nvidia’s unique promotional strategy featuring RTX GPUs. Further, he shares updates from Tesla regarding recalls of Cybertrucks, LG’s NFT marketplace closure, and Netflix’s competition with HBO. Cochrane reflects on how tech developments affect consumers, including Apple’s billion-dollar loss in its TV division and Plex’s price increases for streaming services. Finally, Cochrane looks into AI’s growing presence in fast-food services and wraps the episode by encouraging listeners to support the show through donations and participation in the value-for-value program. He thanks the audience for tuning in and promises to return on Monday with more tech insights.

A shocking new whistleblower complaint reveals that Meta, formerly Facebook, went to extreme lengths to gain access to the Chinese market, even agreeing to censorship demands from the Chinese Communist Party. According to former global policy director Sarah Wynn-Williams, the company developed a censorship system, suppressed dissident voices, and planned to allow the CCP to oversee content moderation. The complaint, filed with the SEC, accuses Meta of misleading investors and regulators about its China dealings. We dive into the explosive allegations and what they mean for the future of Big Tech and global free speech. -Thinking of buying a Starlink?

Promo Code: cjcgeek1w Support the show by becoming a Geek News Central Insider Full Summary: In this podcast episode titled “Meta’s Censorship Deal with China,” host Todd Cochrane dives into a shocking whistleblower complaint regarding Meta, formerly Facebook. The complaint reveals that Meta allegedly went to extreme lengths to access the Chinese market, including agreeing to censorship demands from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). According to the former global policy director, Sarah Wynne-Williams, the company created a censorship system that suppressed dissident voices and allowed the CCP to oversee content moderation. The complaint also accuses Meta of misleading investors and regulators about its dealings in China. Todd expresses his disbelief at the extent of Meta’s willingness to cooperate with the Chinese government, referencing a Washington Post report that outlines how Meta had been working closely with the CCP for many years. He highlights how Meta was prepared to grant the Chinese government access to user data in exchange for the ability to operate in China, which he finds deeply disturbing. He discusses broader implications, suggesting that content creators should consider podcasting as a medium less affected by censorship than platforms like YouTube and Facebook. Todd mentions the alarming trend of YouTube down-ranking content critical of China while promoting a positive image of the country through sponsored content, raising concerns about global free speech.
