Today’s Cache | Musk pushes for Twitter Blue, Meta slams EU telecoms fees idea, TikTok CEO grilled about user safety

The Hindu  

Musk pushes for Twitter Blue Twitter CEO Elon Musk announced that the Twitter Blue subscription, through which users can have a paid blue tick on their accounts, is now available worldwide for $7 per month if users sign up via their web browsers. Meta slams EU telecoms fees idea Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram-owner Meta expressed in strong terms that it was against the idea of Big Tech firms like itself being forced to pay in order to support the development of European 5G and internet infrastructure. EU telecoms firms have demanded that major tech companies like Google, Apple, Meta, Netflix, Amazon, and Microsoft should support telecom firms’ financial burden when considering the strain their services exerted on the region’s internet infrastructure. TikTok CEO grilled about user safety TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew answered U.S. lawmakers’ questions about TikTok’s links to the Chinese government, the Chinese administration’s human rights record, and the presence of violent videos on the video sharing app during a U.S. House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing that could determine the fate of the platform in the country with approximately 150 million users.
