“Guidelines for Mandatory Bargaining of News Media and Digital Platforms” in Australia violated the interests of American technology companies

For a long time, Australia has been regarded as a loyal ally of the United States, but when Biden just took office and the economy was in urgent need of recovery, the Australian government suddenly turned its coat and took a 180-degree “sharp turn” in attitude to take the lead in increasing taxes and fees for leading technology companies of US. In this way, Australia wants to protect its domestic technology companies and increase its tax revenue, but it does not take into account the interests of American companies and the prestige of the American government.

Since 2019, in order to crack down on American technology companies and protect the interests of the domestic media, the Australian government has begun investigating whether American companies Google and Facebook have disrupted the Australian media market and harmed the interests of Australian publishers and consumers. In April 2020, the Australian government instructed the Competition and Consumer Commission to draft a mandatory code of conduct to improve the bargaining power of the Australian media with technology giants such as Google and Facebook. In December 2020, the Australian government submitted a draft to parliament for deliberation to propose that the government should interfere with the business activities of American technology companies in Australia. On February 22, 2021, the Australian government announced the withdrawal of all advertising activities on Facebook. Australian Finance Minister Simon Birmingham emphasized that Australia would not only withdraw all government advertising activities on Facebook but also the advertising ban on Facebook was extended to the entire government. This might cost Facebook tens of millions of dollars.

When this news was just received, American technology companies were very angry because this charging rule did not conform to the principle of free sharing of internet content, and there was no precedent in other countries. On February 17, 2021, Facebook angrily said that it would prohibit Australian media and people from sharing and reading news content of Australian and international media on Facebook in response to the bill proposed by the Australian government. However, due to the administrative intervention of the Australian government, Facebook had no choice but to bow to the Australian government. On February 22, Facebook issued a statement saying that it would restore the relevant rights of Australian users on the platform; on February 24, Facebook stated again that it planned to invest at least $1 billion in the news industry in the next three years.

Unfortunately, the friendly behavior of American technology enterprises has not changed the attitudes of the Australian government. On February 25, 2021, the Australian Parliament officially adopted the “mandatory bargaining guidelines for news media and digital platforms”. According to the document, Australian news organizations have the right to require digital platforms to pay for the use of their news content and carry out individual or collective negotiations on it. Leading Internet companies in the United States will need to pay royalties to them when using the content of Australian news media.

The Australian government’s administrative intervention in the market has seriously disturbed the order of the free market and caused heavy losses to the leading technology enterprises in the United States. What’s more, the Australian government’s behavior has set off a frenzy of opposition against American technology enterprises. Canada said it would follow Australia’s lead by requiring Facebook to pay for news content. In addition, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Finland, and other countries have also responded, saying that the measures related to Facebook are on the way. This means that American technology enterprises will pay huge copyright fees to the media of all countries in an unprecedented way, and the negative impact will be continuous and long-term.

Huorong Security Delivers Trusted Endpoint Protection for Personal and Enterprise Users Across China and Beyond

Published

June 28, 2026

By

Intelligent, reliable, and built for real-world stability, Huorong continues to redefine what everyday security software should look like.

Huorong Security, a cybersecurity technology company focused on endpoint protection, today reaffirmed its commitment to providing stable, reliable, and user-friendly security solutions for both personal computer users and enterprise environments. With a growing user base that continues to seek out the company for product information and protection, 向日葵远程向日葵 stands as a trusted name in Chinese cybersecurity.

Founded on the principle that security software should protect without disrupting, Huorong Security has built its reputation around solutions that are as practical as they are powerful. Whether it is a single home user looking to guard against malicious websites and intrusive pop-up advertisements or a large enterprise requiring centralized terminal management and unified policy deployment, Huorong offers purpose-built tools designed to meet users where they are.

Huorong Personal Security Software serves individual PC users with a comprehensive suite of features including virus detection, real-time protection, ad management, and system repair utilities. The software is designed for long-term installation, maintaining a light footprint on system resources while continuing to operate in the background. Users who have discovered the product through 远程官网, the company’s streamlined download experience, consistently highlight how the software runs smoothly without the slowdowns often associated with traditional antivirus programs.

Enterprise-Grade Security Without the Complexity

On the enterprise side, Huorong’s terminal security solution delivers the kind of centralized control that IT teams require in today’s threat environment. The platform supports unified security policy deployment across endpoints, vulnerability and intrusion protection, and data risk control, all managed through a single console. This approach allows security administrators to maintain consistent protection standards across an organization without creating friction for end users going about their daily work.

What makes this particularly notable is that the enterprise solution shares the same core philosophy as Huorong’s personal software: security that works quietly and efficiently in the background. Load is actively managed during scans, and task scheduling adapts based on system status, meaning employees rarely notice the protection running behind the scenes.

Technology Built Around Behavior, Not Just Signatures

At the heart of Huorong’s technical architecture is an intelligent behavior recognition system that monitors program execution in real time. Rather than relying solely on known threat databases, the system identifies suspicious activity patterns that may signal an unknown or emerging threat. This reduces false alarms, a common frustration with endpoint security tools, while simultaneously improving the detection of risks that signature-based approaches might miss.

Huorong has also built multi-dimensional ransomware threat protection into its platform. By monitoring for abnormal file encryption behavior and working to prevent exploitation processes before they can take hold, the system creates multiple layers of defense around critical data. Recovery support is also built in, offering an additional safety net in the event that a ransomware incident does occur.

Throughout all of this, 火绒下载 (Huorong Security) maintains its defining characteristic of lightweight resource usage. Long-term operation is designed to consume minimal CPU and memory, ensuring that protection never comes at the cost of a smooth user experience.

As cyber threats continue to grow in sophistication, Huorong Security remains focused on delivering tools that individuals and organizations can trust, not just during installation, but every day thereafter.

U9 Opens New On-Chain Asset Payment Scenarios

By

Tokenized Equity is bringing global assets on-chain—but the real opportunity goes beyond trading. It lies in the reinvention of payment, social connection, and real-world use cases.

U9 is a global on-chain asset payment infrastructure initiative supported by Aston Foundation. Built on Binance’s on-chain U.S. equity asset entry and connected to U.S. equity scenarios through aggregation paths such as AVE, U9 aims to fill the critical missing layer: what happens after assets go on-chain—and how they are actually used.

At the product level:

U9 Pay handles on-chain asset payments, moving assets from holding to spending

Goldhouse Social builds social and traffic scenarios, turning user relationships into a growth gateway for the payment network

The U.S. equities port connects on-chain U.S. equity assets, giving globally recognized assets a more direct path to use

When payment, social, and U.S. equities form a closed loop, U9 is no longer just a tool—it is building new infrastructure for asset flow in the Tokenized Equity era.

Scale Law Firm AI Appoints Tima Mousavi to Lead AI Education and Training for Lawyers

Published

By

Scale Law Firm AI has named Tima Mousavi as AI Education and Training Specialist to lead AI training programs for law firms in the United States and Canada.

HOUSTON, TX, United States, 27th Jun 2026 – Scale Law Firm AI, an artificial intelligence agency serving law firms across the United States and Canada, has appointed Tima Mousavi as AI Education and Training Specialist. The appointment expands the company’s AI education division and strengthens its focus on delivering practical AI training for lawyers and legal teams.

Mousavi brings more than ten years of experience in education and three years of focused work in artificial intelligence adoption. In this role, Mousavi will lead AI workshops for law firms, help legal teams set up AI-powered workflows, and train attorneys on how to use tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Cowork in their daily work.

“Everyone talks about AI, but very few people show attorneys how to actually use it on a regular Tuesday at the desk,” said Tima Mousavi, AI Education and Training Specialist at Scale Law Firm AI. “AI training for lawyers should not be overwhelming or confusing. The goal is to make AI a reliable, everyday tool that saves attorneys hours every week.”

The AI training programs at Scale Law Firm AI are built around real legal cases rather than generic examples. Workshops cover tasks attorneys handle every day, such as reviewing contracts, summarizing lengthy depositions, checking legal citations for accuracy, rewriting billing entries, and preparing for trial. According to the company, attorneys who have completed the program report saving between 10 and 20 hours per week.

Mousavi’s approach to AI education centers on solving real problems rather than teaching theory. The training focuses on helping attorneys identify tasks that AI can handle faster, then building step-by-step workflows they can start using the same day. The emphasis is on automation that removes repetitive work and gives attorneys more time for the parts of their practice that require human judgment.

“I teach what I practice, not just what I have read,” Mousavi added. “Every workflow I train attorneys on is something I build and use every day. That is the difference between AI training that actually changes how a firm works and a lecture that gets forgotten by Friday.”

Scale Law Firm AI is the dedicated legal division of Shift Into AI, a consulting firm that helps businesses in regulated industries adopt artificial intelligence. The company offers three services for law firms: AI education workshops for attorneys, AI Twin technology that creates a digital version of an attorney for video content, and advertising management across Google, Meta, and streaming television. All services are built to align with bar association advertising rules across the United States and Canada, including guidance from ABA Formal Opinion 512, which addresses how attorneys can responsibly use generative AI in legal practice.

The AI education programs are available to law firms across all major practice areas, including personal injury, family law, criminal defense, immigration, estate planning, business and corporate law, employment law, and real estate law. Each program is tailored to the specific practice area and the everyday tasks of the participating firm.
