Высокий суд Кении постановил, чтобы компания World, ранее известная как Worldcoin, в течение семи дней удалила биометрические данные местных пользователей, включая изображения лиц и сканы сетчатки глаза.

Судья Абурили Розелин (Aburili Roselyne) пояснила, что в сентябре 2023 года криптопроект World, сооснователем которого является генеральный директор OpenAI Сэм Альтман (Sam Altman), незаконно собрал биометрические данные кенийцев через устройство Orb. Тем самым компания нарушила их право на неприкосновенность частной жизни и законы о защите персональных данных от 2019 года, отметила Розелин.

Судья распорядилась, чтобы удаление информации происходило под надзором Управления комиссара по защите данных (ODPC). Компании World запрещено в дальнейшем собирать и обрабатывать любые биометрические данные жителей Кении. Суд также издал приказ, отменяющий решение Worldcoin Foundation и его агентов собирать биометрические данные без проведения адекватной оценки на возможное нарушение пользовательских прав. Тем самым суд удовлетворил иск против World, который был подан Katiba Institute совместно с некоммерческой организацией ICJ Kenya.

«Суд вынес справедливое решение, поскольку даже в цифровую эпоху конституционные права человека, особенно право на неприкосновенность частной жизни, должны соблюдаться», — заявила ICJ Kenya.

В 2023 году власти Кении уже приостанавливали работу World в стране, усомнившись в законности сбора биометрических данных. Однако в июне прошлого года кенийские власти прекратили расследовать деятельность криптопроекта, поэтому World возобновила бизнес в Кении.

Interview with MicroStrategy CEO: Beyond the 32 BTC Selling Stir, 6 Trillion AI Agents are the Ultimate Endgame for Bitcoin

Interview with Strategy CEO: Beyond the 32 BTC Sale, 6 Trillion AI Agents are Bitcoin's Ultimate Endgame Strategy CEO Phong Le discusses the recent sale of 32 BTC, clarifying it was a minor, strategic move to demonstrate operational liquidity and internal process robustness to creditors and rating agencies, not a reaction to market fears. He emphasizes Strategy's disciplined, data-driven decision-making framework involving its board and complex financial modeling, distancing the company from centralized "black box" operations seen elsewhere in crypto. Le outlines the company's resilience and long-term focus, citing the "doing nothing" strategy during the 2022 bear market as a testament to its conviction in Bitcoin's underlying value proposition for global sovereignty and freedom. He reveals that generative AI was instrumental in developing their Stretch (STRC) preferred stock product, cutting development time from years to months. The most visionary part of the discussion centers on Agentic AI. Le envisions a future with 6 trillion autonomous AI agents conducting commerce, particularly in off-world environments like Mars, which would naturally adopt decentralized crypto rails and seek yield-bearing assets like Bitcoin as a core store of value. Finally, Le addresses the STRC product, expressing confidence it will return to its $100 par value through reserve replenishment and the initiation of dividend payments, and dismisses concerns about competition with stablecoins. He concludes by affirming Strategy's philosophy of expanding Bitcoin access through all available means, from self-custody to ETFs, to onboard the next wave of users.

Interview with Strategy CEO: Beyond the 32 BTC Selling Controversy, 6 Trillion AI Agents Are Bitcoin's Ultimate Endgame

Interview with Strategy CEO Phong Le: The company's sale of 32 BTC sparked market reactions, but Le emphasizes their long-term focus on Bitcoin. He explains the sale was a small test to demonstrate liquidity to creditors and internal processes, not a reaction to "death spiral" fears. The decision-making process involves the board and rigorous financial modeling, moving away from a founder-centric model. Le highlights the strategic option of "doing nothing," holding their 845,000 BTC reserve, as a key lesson from the 2022 bear market. He expresses unwavering belief in Bitcoin's underlying value proposition for global financial sovereignty. Looking ahead, Le is most excited about AI's role. He reveals their AI-aided development of the STRC (Strategy Preferred Stock) product and envisions a future with trillions of AI agents conducting commerce on decentralized networks, with Bitcoin as the foundational store of value. Le advocates for inclusivity in Bitcoin adoption, welcoming all methods from self-custody to ETFs. Regarding STRC trading below its $100 face value, he attributes it to temporary reserve drawdowns for bond buybacks and expects it to stabilize with replenished reserves and the start of dividend payments. He also confirms the company did sell BTC before May 31st, as disclosed in their filings.

Dialogue with Intel's Chen Liwu: The End of AI Isn't Just GPU, But Also Power, Materials, and Manufacturing

Summary: In a conversation, Intel CEO Lip Bu Tan discusses the challenges and opportunities in the AI-driven semiconductor industry. He outlines Intel's multi-step recovery plan—first stabilizing the company's financials and culture ("crawl"), then focusing on core products and customer trust ("walk"), before aggressively pursuing innovation ("run"). Key points include the renewed importance of CPUs in agentic AI and edge computing, the strategic necessity of rebuilding U.S.-based advanced manufacturing for supply chain resilience, and investments in critical bottlenecks like power, materials (e.g., GaN, SiC), advanced packaging, and novel substrates. Tan emphasizes that semiconductor success now hinges not just on chip design but on a holistic system encompassing manufacturing, software, and energy efficiency. He also highlights collaborations, such as with TerraFab, as examples of customers directly engaging with the manufacturing ecosystem to overcome capacity constraints. The future of AI compute, he argues, will extend beyond massive data centers to include robotics and physical AI at the edge.

‘AI Broke Through NSA in Hours’ Goes Viral, But Is It Actually a Red Team Exercise?

The viral claim that Anthropic's AI model 'Mythos' breached almost all of NSA's classified systems in 'hours, not weeks' has been clarified as a misinterpretation. The statement originated from a U.S. Senator citing the NSA director within a broader argument for mandatory pre-release testing of frontier AI models. The author of the original Economist article later clarified that the feat was achieved under very specific, controlled conditions during an authorized red-team exercise, where Mythos was used alongside other tools to find vulnerabilities in a replica of NSA systems, not a live breach. This highlights Mythos's advanced capabilities in vulnerability discovery and attack path reasoning during security testing. Anthropic restricts access to such powerful models through its 'Project Glasswing' program for vetted defense organizations. The incident underscores the U.S. government's conflicted stance: while citing security risks to justify actions like export controls on Anthropic's models, agencies like the NSA reportedly continue using them for defense purposes. The narrative evolved from a call for regulation into a sensationalized 'AI hacks NSA' headline, demonstrating how technical achievements in controlled environments can be misconstrued as real-world attacks.

GLM Hits a Trillion, Will DeepSeek Be Far Behind?

Zhipu AI, a Chinese AI company, has reached a market capitalization exceeding HK$1 trillion, with its stock rising over 1900% this year. Its valuation now rivals half of Alibaba's, highlighting intense market speculation around Chinese AI firms. Despite 2025 revenues of only ¥7.24 billion and a net loss of ¥47.18 billion, investors are pricing in massive future growth, driven by its GLM-5.2 model and its positioning as China's potential answer to Anthropic. The surge reflects a broader trend: soaring valuations for AI companies across primary and secondary markets. DeepSeek's latest funding round valued it over $50 billion, while other players like MiniMax and StepFun are also targeting listings. This capital influx is concentrated in hard tech and AI within Hong Kong's IPO market. However, concerns about a bubble are mounting. Zhipu's high valuation, volatile trading, and impending share lock-up expiries pose near-term risks. The core challenge for Zhipu and its peers is transforming advanced model capabilities into sustainable revenue and profit, following the path of Anthropic which is nearing operational profitability. The trillion-HK dollar mark for Zhipu represents a symbolic peak for China's AI industry, but its permanence hinges on demonstrable commercial success.
