The United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit ruled that Florida’s HB 3, which takes aim at addictive social-media design, is likely constitutional as applied to members of the suing trade groups. The three-judge panel vacated a lower court’s injunction and allowed the law to take effect while the case continues. The judges said the statute implicates speech but regulates features and functions, not viewpoints, which makes it content-neutral under the First Amendment.

Gambit Security reported that between September 10 and 15, 2026, a Chinese-speaking attacker orchestrated a wave of breaches using agent frameworks tied to several large models. The operator targeted about 100 organizations and broke into at least 27 to 30 websites, then harvested payment data at scale. Researchers estimated more than 618,000 card records were taken while the attack infrastructure exposed prompts and stolen data. The entire campaign allegedly cost around $8,000 to run.

Palantir Chief Executive Alex Karp said artificial intelligence can predict people’s behavior, which he said may mean predicting thoughts in a domestic setting. He urged that the country look at controlling such use. Reports describe systems that scan consumer behavior, digital messages, location trails, and biometric signals to forecast actions. That scope mirrors what many Americans fear from big tech and big government. Karp’s words raise the stakes for privacy and the Constitution at home.

Michael Salazar says Paramount’s 247Sports website used Meta’s tracking Pixel to send his Facebook identifier and a video file or link he watched to Meta, without his consent. He claims that sharing tied his identity to his private viewing. The Supreme Court’s case page states Paramount disclosed his Facebook identifier and video-watching history, putting the focus on whether that counts under federal video privacy rules. The dispute asks if old video privacy law covers modern tracking code on free websites.

European Union officials proposed the EU KIDS Act to push real age checks across major platforms and app stores. The plan says simple birthday boxes are not enough and requires certified tools that prove age with higher accuracy. Apple chief Tim Cook welcomed the move, aligning Apple’s gatekeeping role with stronger child-safety rules around downloads, ratings, and purchases. The proposal also ties enforcement to existing European Union digital rules, setting a pathway for supervision and penalties under those systems.
