Politics TechnologyA judge has ordered social media giant X, formerly known as Twitter, to be banned from operating in Brazil.
Supreme Court judge Alexandre de Moraes made the ruling after the platform’s billionaire owner, Elon Musk, failed to send a legal representative to Brazil.
The judge and Musk have been feuding publicly for months after X defied legal orders to block some accounts for spreading fake news and hate.
In the ruling, the judge also ordered the payment of fines amounting to 18.5 million reais (3 million euros).
Anyone who uses virtual private networks (VPNs) to bypass blocking and access X can be fined up to 50,000 reais per day – equivalent to nearly 8,400 euros.
Responding to the decision in a series of posts on X, Musk said Brazil is “closing down the #1 source of truth” and its “oppressive regime” is “scared as people are learning the truth.”
Otherwise, Brazil is an important market for X, which has struggled with losing advertisers since Musk bought the company in 2022.

Politics USARepublican presidential candidate Donald Trump threatened Mark Zuckerberg with life in prison if the CEO of Meta tries to conspire against him in the upcoming presidential election.
The former president has repeatedly stated that the tech mogul interfered in the 2020 presidential election in favor of Joe Biden.
“We are watching him closely and if he does anything illegal this time, he will spend the rest of his life in prison, just like the others who will try to rig the 2024 presidential election,” he wrote. Trump in the book “Save America”, which is expected to be released very soon.
According to Winning Team Publishing, Trump’s book will cost $99, while a signed copy of the former president’s signature will fetch up to $400.
Trump’s statement comes after Zuckerberg sent a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan alleging that the Biden administration pressured Facebook to censor Covid-19 content in 2021.

Technology What's HotPolice units around the world have joined forces in a series of undercover operations targeting one of West Africa’s most notorious criminal networks, the Black Axe. Operation Jackal III involved officers in armored vehicles carrying out searches in 21 different states between April and July this year.
The mission, coordinated by the global police agency, Interpol, led to the arrest of 300 people with links to the Black Ax and other criminal groups that were part of the Nigerian mafia. Interpol called the operation a major blow to the criminal network, but warned that its international reach and technological sophistication meant the group remained a global threat.
Canadian authorities say they have busted a money laundering scheme linked to Black Ax worth more than $5 billion in 2017. “They are very organized and structured,” a senior Interpol official told the BBC.
According to a 2022 report, the Black Ax mafia gang and similar groups were responsible for most of the world’s financial cyber fraud, as well as many of the most serious crimes. The operation by Interpol was years in the making and led to the seizure of $3 million in illegal assets and the freezing of over 700 bank accounts.
Most members of the Black Ax mafia gang have university degrees and were recruited during high school. The organization is a secret criminal network that engages in trafficking, prostitution and murder around the world. But most of his income comes from cyber crimes.

TechnologyThe old router can help you improve the performance of the new router. If you connect the old router to the new one and adjust it properly, you can change its purpose to a Wi-Fi extender.
To begin, you need to reset your old router to factory settings. Depending on the router, the method may vary, but this is usually done by pressing the reset button on the back of the router for 30 seconds,
Make a note of the IP addresses of your current and old router – you can find them on the back or on a small card from your broadband service provider. After restoring the old router, follow these steps:
Connect an ethernet cable to one of the LAN (ethernet) ports on the old router and connect the other end to your computer.
Open a web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari or others) on your computer and enter the IP address of the old router in the address field, and after that you will need to enter the username and password of the router.
After logging in, go to LAN settings and look for DHCP settings. Disable the DHCP server on the old router – this means that your main router will manage the IP address allocation.
Under LAN settings you will see the IP address settings. There you can set a static IP address in the same range as your current router in use.
Under the wireless settings on the old router, find the SSID or wireless network name option. Update it, along with the SSID password, to match your current router. This will allow your devices to automatically connect and seamlessly transfer data between the two routers.
Save the changes made and then disconnect the ethernet cable from the computer. Connect one end to the LAN port on the old router and the other end to the LAN port on the main router.
After these technical steps, place your router in a place where you have a weak signal. Use an ethernet cable to connect the old router to the main one, as it provides optimal performance and ensures a reliable and efficient connection between the two devices. If an ethernet cable is impractical, using a power adapter can serve as an alternative.

TechnologyAn updated version of the humanoid robot was introduced, which can now also hold conversations.
The US company behind the new Figure 02 Artificial Intelligence (AI) robot is developing it to help tackle labor shortages in menial tasks in factories and warehouses.
The Figure AI company boasts that the second-generation Figure robot is “the highest performing humanoid on the market”.
It is said to be the result of a complete hardware and software redesign in just 10 months, following its predecessor, the Figure 01 robot.
The new version of the robot, 167 cm tall, is capable of speaking to humans through built-in microphones and speakers connected to custom AI models trained in partnership with OpenAI.
There’s also a built-in visual language model, which is said to enable “rapid common-sense visual reasoning” from the robot’s cameras.
The previous model’s battery lasted five hours on a full charge, but now there’s a new custom 2.25 KWh battery that delivers 50 percent or more power.
Figure 02 perceives and understands the physical world through its visual AI system powered by six integrated RGB cameras.
His “human” ones are equipped with 16 degrees of range and human-like power, which allows him to perform a wide range of tasks similar to what humans do.
The robot’s “brain” now performs three times more AI calculations and interactions compared to the previous generation.
This, according to the manufacturer, allows real-time artificial intelligence tasks to be performed completely autonomously.
