News and Updates:
- Microsoft backtracks in Europe — Windows 10’s Extended Security Updates (ESU) will be free for an extra year in the European Economic Area (EEA), lasting until October 14, 2026. After pushback from Euroconsumers under the Digital Markets Act, Microsoft dropped its requirement to enable Windows Backup (and OneDrive) for access. Users in the EEA still need to log in with a Microsoft account every 60 days, but no cloud sync or payments are required. Outside Europe, ESU costs $30 or 1,000 Microsoft Rewards points, or requires enabling cloud sync. Windows 10 end-of-support remains October 14, 2025.
- Cracker Barrel logo controversy amplified by bots — Researchers at PeakMetrics found that nearly half of early outrage posts on X about Cracker Barrel’s new logo were bot-generated. Around 44.5% of the first 52,000 posts — and nearly half of boycott calls — were flagged as bot-driven. Alt-tech platforms like Truth Social, Gettr, Gab, 4chan, and Rumble also spread the backlash. While 75% of posts came from real users, botnets amplified discontent into a viral outrage cycle.
- Social media now central to news diets — A new Pew study shows 53% of U.S. adults sometimes get news from social media. Facebook (38%) and YouTube (35%) lead, followed by Instagram (20%) and TikTok (20%). X (12%) and Reddit (9%) lag behind. Younger adults are far more likely to use TikTok, Reddit, and Instagram for news, while older adults still lean on TV. Only 2% of Americans say they get news from AI chatbots like ChatGPT or Google Gemini.
- Police stop a driverless Waymo — San Bruno, California police pulled over a Waymo robotaxi after it made an illegal U-turn. With no human driver, officers couldn’t issue a citation. Current law only allows tickets for human drivers, though a new state law next year will let violations be reported to the DMV. Waymo says it is reviewing the “glitch.” The incident sparked viral debate over how to hold self-driving cars accountable.
