In her opening arguments Megan O’Neill, a lead attorney for California, relied heavily on information found in millions of documents provided in the case from Meta. They included internal research, employee emails, and chat logs that went all the way up to Zuckerberg.One piece of internal research on Instagram stated: “Teens have an addict’s narrative about use.”In another that O’Neill pointed the jury to, Meta found “product features designed to increase time spent are inherently at odds with well-being and take away from people’s ability to focus on activity that adds value to their lives”.Despite Meta’s awareness of potentially negative…

US President Donald Trump said he will delay imposing new tariffs on a wide array of Canadian goods for three days as the countries firm up a trade deal.”I have paused the 50% Tariffs against Canada, that were scheduled to kick in tomorrow morning for a three day period, based on the fact that Canada and the U.S.A., subject to the finalization of documents, have a DEAL!” Trump said in a social media post.

A wall of white granite towered above a small team of engineers gathered in a California quarry. The ancient, ultra-hard material before them was, to most things, completely impermeable.Then the rock-melting tunnel-boring machine (TBR) roared to life.”It’s kind of like igniting a rocket,” says Troy Helming, founder and chief executive of EarthGrid, as he describes the initially loud process of lighting up three plasma torches at the front of his company’s machine.Those torches, set within a spinning head, soon quieten down as they produce a stream of super-heated plasma reaching 27,000C – significantly hotter than the surface of the Sun.During…

Disney and ABC have filed a lawsuit to stop the Trump administration from launching an early licence renewal process, arguing that the network is being unfairly targeted over its editorial content.”Government censorship is deeply un-American,” the lawsuit says. “This case concerns the Administration’s sustained effort to do just that.”The lawsuit says the Federal Communication Commission – the government’s media regulator – is being pressured to renew broadcast licences years early. It alleges the push stems from complaints from, and under the direction of, President Donald Trump.FCC chairman Brendan Carr has said that the renewal requests were focused on “public interest”,…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways $700 vs $9,000 isn’t a scam — it’s three different products. Match the tier to your market, or you’ll pay $800 for a problem that needs $4,000 of work. Budget from customer value, not package price. If the math doesn’t justify the retainer several times over, the scope (or the channel) is wrong. Every discovery call I run reaches the same two questions. The first is “will this work?” The second is “what should SEO cost?” Founders ask the second one nervously, because they’ve usually collected three proposals that quote…

This week, a spacecraft built and operated by Northrop Grumman called a Mission Extension Vehicle (MEV) unplugged from a communications satellite operated by the Australian firm Optus. For more than a year, the MEV spacecraft has been stuck to the back of the Optus satellite, keeping it in the right place in space so it can continue its mission. Now, the satellite life-extension spacecraft is leaving to make room for its replacement. In July, four new Northrop spacecraft…
