In Pakistan, then Iran, Chinese air defense looks like a paper tiger China's air defense system has failed in Pakistan, Venezuela and Iran. Now military analysts are questioning China's own domestic defenses.

You’re not the only one seeing what you record on Meta smart glasses, contractors say Meta contractors say they’ve been tasked with reviewing highly sensitive videos captured by the company’s smart glasses.

Who didn’t see this coming… Meta contractors tasked with reviewing what people record on their smart glasses are getting glimpses of visits to the bathroom, and a lot more besides. Workers who complained about the review process were swiftly fired.

Social media like X changes your politics whether you want it to or not A new study shows X’s algorithm can nudge users’ political views as online platforms remain a key part of broader election discourse.

Since Elon Musk bought Twitter, far-right posts and bots have taken over the algorithm. It turns out, just seven weeks of exposure to this content can push users' political views to the rightβ€”and give them a more favorable view of Russia and Vladimir Putin.

It feels like no one should have to say this, and yet we are in a situation where it needs to be said, very loudly and clearly, before it’s too late to do anything about it: The United States is not a startup. If you run it like one, it will break.
