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

Published

on

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.

ELEHEAR Makes AI Hearing Technology More Accessible This Father’s Day and Prime Day

Published

on

As untreated hearing loss remains one of the most overlooked health issues in America, ELEHEAR marks two of the year’s biggest retail moments by offering its award-winning lineup at its lowest prices to date

United States, 24th Jun 2026, Nearly 48 million Americans live with some degree of hearing loss. Fewer than one in three who could benefit from a hearing aid have ever used one. The reasons are well documented: historically, a single pair of prescription hearing aids cost between $2,000 and $7,000, required clinical appointments, and carried a stigma that kept millions of people from taking the first step toward better hearing. That equation has been changing since the FDA opened the over-the-counter hearing aid category in 2022, and ELEHEAR has been among the companies driving that shift.

“We believe hearing health should be as easy to access as any other personal technology,” said David Hogan, Managing Director of ELEHEAR. “For too long, the cost and complexity of getting hearing help has meant people simply go without — and that has real consequences for their quality of life, their relationships, and their mental health. If we’re going to do something in this space, it has to be best-in-class and reach the people who need it most. That’s what we’re here for.”

The timing is deliberate. Father’s Day is one of the most significant gifting occasions of the year for health and wellness technology, and Amazon Prime Day has become a cultural moment when American consumers make meaningful purchasing decisions. For a company whose mission centers on removing barriers to hearing care, both occasions represent opportunities to reach consumers who have long assumed that clinically validated, high-performance hearing technology carries a four-figure price tag and to show them that it no longer has to.
 

The devices on offer this summer reflect the breadth of that mission. The Beyond Pro, which earned an A grade from HearAdvisor’s independent testing lab and ranks in the top 2% of all OTC hearing aids tested, is powered by ELEHEAR’s proprietary VOCCLEAR® 2.0 technology, delivering 30% clearer speech in noisy environments. It also includes a high-fidelity Music Mode, Bluetooth 5.3 streaming, and real-time AI translation in over 20 languages. The Delight, launched earlier this year, takes a different form. An in-the-canal device with an earbud-like profile, it is designed for all-day wear with an ergonomic fit and IP67-rated dust and water resistance. Independent testing places its performance well above the OTC category average.

From June 15 through June 26, spanning both Father’s Day and Amazon Prime Day, the company is offering its full lineup of AI-powered OTC hearing aids at the lowest prices in its history, including the Delight, which launched at CES 2026 to wide industry attention. Selected devices are available at up to 31% off, with the deepest discounts on Delight. All purchases include a 45-day risk-free trial and a one-year warranty.

Savings during this window are real, and for the millions of people who have been putting off addressing their hearing, they make the moment of decision easier — for families looking to give the people they love something that genuinely improves their daily lives.

About ELEHEAR

ELEHEAR is an integrated AI hearing aid brand, encompassing research and development, manufacturing, and global sales. Its proprietary self-developed core technologies, including its proprietary VOCCLEAR® algorithm, enable ultra-low-latency AI processing, Noise reduction, and DNN-hybrid feedback cancellation. These innovations have earned recognition from professional teams worldwide, underscoring ELEHEAR’s strong technical competitiveness in global markets. For more information, visit www.elehear.com.
