India to Ease Nuclear Liability Laws, Attracting Foreign Investment

To draw in international businesses, especially American enterprises like General Electric and Westinghouse Electric, India plans to relax its nuclear

To draw in international businesses, especially American enterprises like General Electric and Westinghouse Electric, India plans to relax its nuclear liability laws and limit accidentrelated fines on equipment suppliers. By 2047, the proposed modifications will increase nuclear power capacity to 100 gigawatts and enable a $500 billion trade agreement with the United States. Part of the 2010 Civil Nuclear Liability Damage Act, which exposed providers to infinite liability for mishaps, is eliminated in the proposed law. The government anticipates passing the measures during the July 2025 monsoon session of Parliament. The action makes Indias nuclear industry more investmentfriendly by moving liability from suppliers to operators in accordance with international standards. Read More..

Both the United States and China have trade grievances, IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva underlined, and she urged them to create a more equitable, rulesbased trading system and lessen uncertainty. Ahead of the spring meetings of the IMF and World Bank, she stated that China wants more U.S. involvement to stabilise economic ties, while the U.S. is worried about Chinas intellectual property policies and nontariff obstacles. Georgieva emphasised the necessity for multilateral cooperation by warning that protracted trade disputes could cause global market disruptions. As a move in the right direction towards trade liberalisation, she also applauded Indias tariff reductions. Changes in international commerce are still being tracked by the IMF, especially in light of growing protectionist measures. Read More..

Google Retires CountrySpecific Domains, Redirects All Users to Google.com.

Google has redirected all users to Google.com and formally abolished countryspecific domains, such as google.co.in for India and google.co.uk for the UK. With the goal of simplifying the user experience while preserving local relevance, the shift started on 15 April 2025. To ensure that visitors receive regionspecific content regardless of the site address they enter, Google will now customise search results based on realtime location data rather than domain names. This domain change is more of a formal alignment with current procedures because the organisation has been using locationbased search modifications since 2017. Users with personalised settings might need to check their settings, but the basic search experience is unaltered. The modification doesnt change Googles adherence to regional regulations.

Thousands of customers were unable to browse products and complete transactions due to a significant outage in Walmarts online store. At its height, the outage, which started at approximately 300 p.m. ET and affected both the website and mobile app, received over 3,600 complaints. On social media, users expressed frustration after seeing error messages such as "Were having technical issues, but well be back in a flash." Although Walmart has not formally revealed the reason, analysts surmise that it might have been connected to periodic maintenance of the server. Although some users continued to experience delays in order confirmations, services were largely restored by 645 p.m. ET. The interruption raises fears about widespread technical failures after similar disruptions at Zoom and Spotify. Read More..

Meta Resumes AI Training Using Public Data from European Users.

The proposal to use public data from European users, such as posts, comments, and interactions with Meta AI, to train its AI models has been revived by Meta. The corporation says its strategy complies with GDPR regulations, but it halted this project last year because of EU regulatory worries. EU users will be notified about the new policy and given the option to opt out using a form. Meta guarantees that data and private messages from users younger than 18 will not be used for training. If users are concerned, privacy experts advise them to opt out because it is impossible to erase data once it has been put into large language models LLMs. The action is in line with Google and OpenAIs similar AI training methodologies.

Apple Releases iOS 18.4.1 and macOS Sequoia 15.4.1 to Patch ZeroDay Vulnerabilities

Apple fixed two zeroday vulnerabilities that were being regularly used by hackers with government support by releasing iOS 18.4.1 and macOS Sequoia 15

Apple fixed two zeroday vulnerabilities that were being regularly used by hackers with government support by releasing iOS 18.4.1 and macOS Sequoia 15.4.1. The vulnerabilities in RPAC and CoreAudio enabled hackers to circumvent Pointer Authentication, a crucial security measure that guards against memorybased attacks, and run malicious code across media files. Apple reacted quickly after Googles Threat Analysis Group TAG helped identify these vulnerabilities. Although it is still unknown how many customers were impacted, Apple acknowledged that the attacks were part of highly advanced cyber campaigns that specifically targeted individuals. It is highly recommended that users upgrade their devices right away to reduce security threats and stop future attacks. This report highlights the continuous fight against sophisticated cyberthreats that target wellknown people and institutions. Read More..

Zoom Outage Caused by Miscommunication Between Markmonitor and GoDaddy Registry

Zoom’s neartwohour outage was caused by a miscommunication between its domain registrar, MarkMonitor, and GoDaddy Registry, which mistakenly blocked the zoom.us domain. The disruption lasted from 255 PM ET to 412 PM ET, affecting Zoom Meetings, Zoom Phone, Zoom Contact Centre, and the Zoom website. Zoom confirmed that the issue was not due to a security failure or cyberattack but rather a registry error. The company worked with MarkMonitor and GoDaddy to quickly resolve the problem and restore services. We advised some users to flush their DNS caches to regain access. The outage occurred just hours after Spotify’s service disruption, though the two incidents are unrelated. Read More..
