Pope Leo XIV tweets:
'The world does not need an artificial intelligence that diminishes humanity; rather, it needs human intelligence enlightened by wisdom, political authority guided by conscience and technological innovation directed by charity. Only then will artificial intelligence become not a rival to humanity but a servant of the common good.

Sound legislation should encourage scientific and technological creativity while safeguarding fundamental human rights and freedoms. It should protect users from exploitation, preserve personal privacy, ensure transparency in the use of emerging technologies and guarantee that they strengthen democratic institutions.'

– 'Meta has agreed to a landmark settlement over allegations that its platforms harmed children and teenagers - raising a much bigger question about how social media is designed and regulated.

On this episode of The Fourcast, we look at what the settlement actually means for Instagram and Facebook users, whether other social media companies could be forced to follow suit, and whether this could fundamentally change the way we use social media.

Krishnan Guru-Murthy was joined by visiting professor at Stony Brook University School of Journalism and author of ‘Hot Type’ Jeff Jarvis and Associate Professor in Digital Humanities at University College London, Kaitlyn Regehr.

In a statement release after the settlement, Meta said the agreement is not an admission of wrongdoing, but a new framework designed to give parents more control and teenagers stronger protections. It says the measures will only work if TikTok and YouTube adopt the same rules, because teenagers move between multiple platforms.'

Trump's immigration enforcers look into buying ad data. Industry insiders fear what comes next.
https://www.politico.com/news/2026/05/30/ice-immigration-privacy-data-advertising-00939078
'...Immigration and Customs Enforcement published a request for information in January seeking input on how “commercial Big Data and Ad Tech providers can directly support investigations,” a request that came as the administration was pursuing efforts to expand the United States’ immigration enforcement capabilities. It appears to be the first time ICE has issued a public request on how to use this kind of data, which can include information on people’s purchases, web browsing or social media use.

[...] “It’s very shocking to see it in black and white that the government is trying to use the digital advertising ecosystem to find and target immigrants,” said O’Kelley, who is the CEO of AI-advertising firm Scope3 and helped develop the online advertising exchange that the industry relies on.

“It makes me very, very nervous about how people’s day-to-day use of the internet or their interactions with social media turn into being targeted. That’s terrifying.”...'

The 94-year-old has been accused by a US court of authorising the murder of four Americans on two civilian aeroplanes in 1996.

The US had already imposed an energy blockade and recently broadened sanctions against senior Cuban officials.'
