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

Published

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.

By

Entrepreneur Mr. Lino, the visionary force behind the global luxury powerhouse JDLINO BRAND, celebrated another birthday surrounded by the people who matter most — his family, his closest friends, and the community that has witnessed his rise from local inspiration to international creative leader.

The evening was more than a birthday — it was a tribute to a man whose work ethic, artistic eye, and commitment to uplifting others continue to shape culture, fashion, and community development.

A Celebration Rooted in Family and Purpose

The celebration took place in an intimate setting filled with warmth, laughter, and the unmistakable elegance that defines the JDLINO BRAND. Family members shared heartfelt stories of Mr. Lino’s journey — from early creative sketches to the global editorial campaigns that now define his signature style.

Friends described him as a relentless builder, a mentor, and a pillar of strength, always pushing forward with vision and humility.

The Man Behind the Brand

As the Founder and CEO of JDLINO BRAND, Mr. Lino has become a symbol of luxury innovation. His editorial direction blends cinematic energy with cultural pride, creating visuals that resonate across New York, Paris, and Tokyo.

But beyond the spotlight, he remains deeply connected to his roots. His leadership with Felion Youth and his ongoing collaboration with Hispanic Brotherhood reflect his belief that success means nothing unless it lifts others.

A Moment of Reflection and Gratitude

During the celebration, Mr. Lino took a moment to thank his family and supporters for standing by him through every milestone. He spoke about the importance of unity, legacy, and staying true to one’s purpose — values that continue to guide his brand and his life.

His message was simple yet powerful:
“Every year is a blessing. Every challenge is a lesson. And every success is meant to be shared.”

Looking Ahead: A Future Filled With Vision

As candles were blown out and toasts were raised, one thing became clear — Mr. Lino’s journey is far from over. With new editorial projects, global expansions, and community initiatives on the horizon, the next chapter of the JDLINO legacy promises to be even more extraordinary.

This birthday was not just a celebration of another year lived — it was a celebration of impact, creativity, and the unstoppable spirit of a man who continues to inspire.

MEXC Deploys 1,000 BTC to Strategic Reserves in March–April Security Report

Published

Victoria, Seychelles, May 26th, 2026, Chainwire

MEXC, a pioneer in 0-fee digital asset trading, has released its March–April bimonthly security report, including the strategic deployment of 1,000 BTC to its treasury reserves to strengthen user protection. Alongside this massive capital injection, the exchange continues to scale its compliance architecture to neutralize evolving market threats.

Intercepted 26,897 Accounts Linked to Organized Risk Activities

During this 60-day period, MEXC’s security infrastructure intercepted and restricted 26,897 accounts tied to coordinated fraud—an 18.9% increase from the previous reporting cycle. Threat intelligence engines mapped 6,903 malicious syndicates (up 33.6%), with the heaviest concentrations emerging from the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) and Indonesia, tracking 3,567 and 1,524 threat clusters, respectively. All identified entities were subjected to immediate platform-wide bans to secure ecosystem liquidity and protect user capital.

Deploying On-Chain Intelligence to Immobilize Compromised Funds

By syndicating threat-linked wallet data with major industry partners, MEXC actively maps and disrupts illicit capital flows tied to theft and fraud, preemptively restricting assets before secondary transfers can happen. From March to April, the platform processed 254 cross-platform intelligence requests, including 50 law enforcement freeze mandates. Through this collaborative infrastructure, the exchange directly immobilized 17,084,031 USDT across 47 active threat cases—23 of which were executed via direct law enforcement intervention. All intelligence broadcasting and subsequent asset freezes were conducted in strict adherence to multi-jurisdictional laws, ensuring rapid response efficiency while maintaining absolute regulatory compliance.

Restoring Misdirected Capital: 863,127 USDT Recovered Across 819 Incidents

Between March and April, MEXC manually processed 819 erroneous deposit cases, recovering assets equivalent to 863,127 USDT. Each case underwent rigorous manual review, on-chain verification, and cross-chain tracking procedures to guarantee the precise and secure restitution of user capital.

Guardian Fund Adds 1,000 BTC Reserves

MEXC’s deployment of the additional 1,000 BTC to its institutional reserves has established a formalized dual-asset architecture for the Guardian Fund. This framework leverages USDT to guarantee immediate operational liquidity, while the Bitcoin tranche functions as a macroeconomic anchor to preserve capital across market cycles. Concurrently, MEXC has initiated a mandate to aggressively scale the fund’s total capitalization from $100 million to $500 million over the next two years. To maintain absolute transparency, all institutional wallet addresses are fully public, enabling real-time, cryptographically verifiable proof of reserves.

Guardian Fund wallet addresses:

Major Assets Maintain Overcollateralized Reserves, With BTC Reserve Ratio at 293.29%

During this reporting period, MEXC’s major asset reserve ratios were as follows:

  • Bitcoin (BTC): reserve ratio of 293.29%, with total wallet assets of 11,895.453 BTC covering user holdings of 4,055.818 BTC
  • Ethereum (ETH): reserve ratio of 122.93%, with total wallet assets of 70,167.059 ETH
  • USDT: reserve ratio of 116.92%, with total wallet assets of 2.442 billion USDT
  • USDC: reserve ratio of 120.03%, with total wallet assets of 95.7287 million USDC

During the same period, the MEXC Futures Insurance Fund continued to operate normally, providing coverage for potential negative balance losses under extreme market conditions and reducing the impact of liability spillover on user assets. The fund balance remains publicly available in real time. Users can check the current balance of each trading pair on the MEXC official Insurance Fund page.

MEXC CEO Vugar Usi said, “Trust must be supported by verifiable capital and transparent mechanisms. The expansion of the Guardian Fund and the addition of BTC reserves mark an important step in MEXC’s continued development of user protection infrastructure. We aim to provide users with a higher level of security assurance and asset transparency as they participate in the market.”

Looking ahead, MEXC will continue to disclose key data through its bimonthly security reports, covering risk interception, law enforcement cooperation, user asset recovery, and proof of reserves. Through on-chain verifiable reserves, standardized risk control procedures, and cross-platform collaboration, MEXC will continue to strengthen user asset protection.
