Ofcom has launched an investigation into Telegram under the UK’s Online Safety Act, to examine whether it is complying with its duties to prevent child sexual abuse material being shared.
"This problem extends to big platforms too, and teen-focused chat services are too easily being used by predators to groom children. These firms must do more to protect children, or face serious consequences under the Online Safety Act,” — Suzanne Cater, Director of Enforcement at Ofcom, said.

Scientists at Sony AI have developed a table tennis robot, dubbed “Ace,” with enough speed and precision to beat even some expert ping pong players in the latest matchup between biological and AI. The resulting system can autonomously locate a ping pong ball in space, determine the correct technique needed to return it to an opponent’s side and repeat the process until a play is over.

Apple released a software update for iPhones and iPads fixing a bug that allowed law enforcement to extract messages that had been deleted or disappeared automatically from messaging apps. This was because notifications that displayed the messages’ content were also cached on the device for up to a month.
In a security notice on its website, Apple said that the bug meant “notifications marked for deletion could be unexpectedly retained on the device.”

Three years after researchers first injected deaf children with a treatment designed to give them hearing, an early scientific consensus is emerging: this gene therapy works.
A team of researchers published the most promising results to date: in a clinical trial in China, 90% of participants reported significant improvement in their hearing after receiving an injection. The therapy even improved hearing in a few adults, including a 32-year-old. The results were published in Nature.
“In some patients, the hearing improved so well that they can hear whispers,” - said Zheng-Yi Chen, Mass Eye and Ear otolaryngologist. “To reach a stage where you can hear normal conversation, it’s mind-boggling.”

Scott Bessent said that providing a currency swap to the Emirates could benefit the US by stabilizing foreign exchange markets and protecting American assets around the world.
“Swap lines, whether it’s from the Federal Reserve or the Treasury, are to maintain order in the dollar funding markets and to prevent the sale of the U.S. assets in a disorderly way,” - Mr. Bessent said. “The swap line would both benefit the U.A.E. and the U.S.”
A currency swap would entail the US purchasing the Emirates’s currency, the dirham, so that it has more dollars for handling its oil sales transactions.

Japan's communications ministry plans to require social media platforms to conduct stricter age verification of users to address issues such as addiction and bullying among youth. The ministry, however, said it is undesirable to introduce a blanket age-based restriction like those being adopted overseas, given the role of social media as an important communication tool.

The high court also slapped a fine of 200 million won ($135,300) on the defendant, saying in its ruling that “the infringement of proprietary and core national technologies is a grave crime.”
