Earlier this week, Elon Musk reignited a public debate over chat app privacy after calling WhatsApp "not secure," following a lawsuit that accuses Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) of misleading users about its end-to-end encryption claims. Musk Targets WhatsApp, Signal, Promotes X Chat Musk posted on X that "WhatsApp is not secure" and alleged that "even Signal is questionable," urging users to switch to X Chat, the messaging feature built into his social media platform. In 2021, Musk's endorsement sent Signal downloads surging. Interestingly, Musk's post got Community Noted, a crowdsourced fact-checking and context-adding system on X. The note said that X Chat offers end-to-end encryption but lacks forward secrecy, meaning a compromised key could expose past messages. Private keys are controlled by X and secured only by a four-digit PIN, while metadata is still collected. By contrast, Signal uses forward secrecy, stores keys solely on user devices, and collects minimal metadata. Lawsuit Claims Meta Misled Users On WhatsApp Privacy The lawsuit, filed Friday in U.S. District Court in San Francisco by an international group of plaintiffs, alleges that Meta falsely markets WhatsApp as fully end-to-end encrypted. According to the complaint, Meta can allegedly store, analyze and access virtually all of WhatsApp users’ purportedly ‘private' communications," despite assurances to the contrary. Meta has rejected the claims, calling the lawsuit "frivolous." WhatsApp Chief Fires Back At Musk WhatsApp head Will Cathcart swiftly rejected Musk's claims, calling them "totally false." "WhatsApp can't read messages because the encryption keys are stored on your phone and we don't have access to them," Cathcart said in a post on X. He added that the lawsuit is a "no-merit, headline-seeking" case brought by the same firm that previously defended NSO Group, whose spyware was used to target journalists and government officials. Last year, WhatsApp won a $168 million jury verdict agai...

Photo: VCG On Jan. 19, China’s National Bureau of Statistics delivered a sobering wake-up call: The number of births in 2025 fell to 7.92 million, a decrease of 1.62 million from the previous year. The birth rate has slid to 5.63 per 1,000 people, and the fertility rate is now less than 1.0. While falling birth rates are a global phenomenon, the speed of China’s decline requires an unprecedented response.

World number two Nelly Korda has called the lack of a mixed gender indoor virtual league "an unbelievable miss" following the launch of a women's competition backed by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. The WTGL will be held in the same Florida venue as the men's TGL, which is currently midway through its second season. Some of the world's best female golfers will compete in a season of team matchplay in the SoFi Center in Palm Beach Gardens, but Korda suggested not combining the men and women's events was a missed opportunity. "I have mixed feelings on it, and I'm surprised no other girls have spoken out about it," she said. "It's a huge and unbelievable miss that we're not playing alongside the men. "There's no greater way to grow the game, and it would have been revolutionary. It would have been the first time, I think, that men and women are on the same playing field, playing for the same exact amount of money. "But I also think it's great that we are getting this opportunity, so that's my mixed feelings." The indoor golf set-up features teams of players hitting shots at a five-storey-high simulator screen before moving to a short-game area with bunkers and a green that can rotate 360 degrees, creating hole-to-hole variations. Asked about the prospect of a mixed-gender event, Mike McCarley, a former TV executive who founded the TGL alongside McIlroy and Woods said the idea had been discussed. "I think that is something that's interesting to us and is interesting to the LPGA and is interesting to a lot of the players we're talking to," said McCarley. "Right now, we're really focused on building (the TGL) out and providing, frankly, a nice stage and really nice platform to showcase the players and their personalities." Korda, 27, is yet to commit to entering the event, saying she is "still weighing out the time commitment" required to play in the tournament. World number one Jeeno Thitikul and British golfers Charley Hull and Lottie Woad are among the players confirmed...

Artificial intelligence is the greatest investment opportunity of our lifetime. The time to invest in groundbreaking AI is now, and this stock is a steal! AI is eating the world—and the machines behind it are ravenous. Each ChatGPT query, each model update, each robotic breakthrough consumes massive amounts of energy. In fact, AI is already pushing global power grids to the brink. Wall Street is pouring hundreds of billions into artificial intelligence—training smarter chatbots, automating industries, and building the digital future. But there’s one urgent question few are asking: Where will all of that energy come from? AI is the most electricity-hungry technology ever invented. Each data center powering large language models like ChatGPT consumes as much energy as a small city. And it’s about to get worse. Even Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI, issued a stark warning: “The future of AI depends on an energy breakthrough.” Elon Musk was even more blunt: “AI will run out of electricity by next year.” As the world chases faster, smarter machines, a hidden crisis is emerging behind the scenes. Power grids are strained. Electricity prices are rising. Utilities are scrambling to expand capacity. And that’s where the real opportunity lies… One little-known company—almost entirely overlooked by most AI investors—could be the ultimate backdoor play. It’s not a chipmaker. It’s not a cloud platform. But it might be the most important AI stock in the US owns critical energy infrastructure assets positioned to feed the coming AI energy spike.
