Google has agreed to change its user data practises to respond to a German antitrust investigation into its datadriven market dominance. The German cartel office expressed concerns about Google consumers lack of adequate options about the widespread use of their data across the companys services. Thanks to Googles commitment across several services, including Gmail, Google News, and Google TV, users will have more control over their data. The revisions would not impact services like Google Search and YouTube, which the EUs Digital Markets Act protects. Since gaining more investigation jurisdiction in 2021, the German competition authority has increased its monitoring of big tech companies, including Amazon, Meta Platforms, and Apple. Read More..

According to Bloomberg News, Apple has reportedly started negotiations with DuckDuckGo to replace Google as the default search engine for private browsing on Apples Safari browser.

Additionally, according to the US Department of Justice, Google has been accused of illegally paying smartphone producers like Apple to maintain its position as the default search engine. Despite these attempts, Apple continued to use Google as the default search engine on its devices. Google, Apple, and DuckDuckGo have all remained silent regarding the subject. Read More..

The second 64qubit quantum computer in Japan has been launched by Fujitsu and Riken, concentrating on realworld uses for quantum technology. It will be linked with a 40qubit quantum computer simulator to improve the precision of quantum systems. Even while this accomplishment is noteworthy, the head of Fujitsus quantum lab realises there is still a long way to go. Considering that quantum computing has the potential to be millions of times faster than supercomputers, governments and tech behemoths like IBM and Alphabet are investing substantially in the field. China, the U.S., and other democracies compete in this international technological race. Additionally, President Joe Biden wants to limit American funding for Chinese quantum programmes. Read More..

State Security Agency SSA thinks that the US CIA and Britains MI6 have planned a significant cyberattack that it has been hiding from the public for over a month. The SSA argues that the cyber attack targeted South Africa, Russia, and India in August, just before the BRICS Summit, and might be that the hackers gained access to essential data. The attacks earliest victims were Russia and India. Insiders speculate that the hackers might have had help from within. They kept the episode under wraps because it was embarrassing and it might have compromised important information. The hackers identity is still unclear, and American and Russian intelligence are under suspicion. Read More..

A 2020 watering hole attack against iOS users employed the malware LightSpy, linked to the Chinese statesponsored APT41 gang. The 14 plugins that make up this program are in charge of data exfiltration. The Core implant manages critical attack operations, such as gathering device fingerprints, communicating with C2 servers, and retrieving commands. In addition to selfupdating, LightSpy Core offers 24 commands. Plugins that are notable for their abilities to track locations, record microphone sounds even during calls, and steal WeChat Pay purchase histories are just a few. Researchers found active servers in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, and Russia to emphasise the continuous threat. Because of how the malware is distributed, users are cautioned about installing software from unreliable sources. Read More..

Ofcom Targets Amazon and Microsoft in UK Cloud Market Probe

With a combined market share of between 60 and 70 per cent in the UKs cloud computing market, Amazon and Microsoft are prepared to request an antitrust inquiry into their strong positions. In its final report, Ofcom will go into more detail about its Aprilsignaled objective. The current state of the cloud computing market is a source of worry since it makes it difficult for customers to negotiate reasonable rates because of technical limitations and incentives that favour specific providers. In Ofcoms opinion, these actions may be anticompetitive and disadvantage smaller cloud providers. Amazon and Microsoft declared their willingness to work with Ofcom, but Microsoft also warned about potential customer harm. By October 5, Ofcom will decide whether to send a market to the Competition and Markets Authority. Read More..

Ripples Legal Victory Shakes Up Cryptocurrency Market Control

A federal judges denial of the Securities and Exchange Commissions SEC request to appeal her ruling regarding Ripple Labs is a significant blow to the SECs control over the cryptocurrency market. Ripples XRP token sales on public exchanges complied with federal securities laws, according to the judges July 13 decision, because buyers did not expect to make money off of Ripples efforts. The conclusions regarding the "programmatic" sales and other distributions of XRP have been the subject of an appeal by the SEC. The court concluded that her finding did not conflict with a different ruling on Terraform Labs Terra USD token but did not find any significant reasons for dissent. The trial in the Ripple case is scheduled for April 23, 2024. Read More..
