#Meta is making users who opted out of #AI #training opt out again, #watchdog says

That's a seeming violation of the General Data Protection Regulation ( #GDPR ), Noyb alleged.

A coalition of Jewish groups warns that the Trump administration is making Jews less safe by targeting international students who protested Israel's war in Gaza and the universities where they study.
Is free speech really “free” for everyone, or is the Palestine issue an exception?

The EU Commission is talking up its ban on the consumer uses of forever chemicals. This might sound good in theory, but it would fail to effectively tackle PFAS pollution – and hand a major lobby win to the PFAS industry.EUobserver
