AI-Powered Visa Revocations: US Escalates Anti-Terror Measures, Sparking Controversy

2025-03-07

The US State Department will use AI to revoke visas of foreign nationals deemed supportive of Hamas or other designated terrorist groups. This "Catch and Revoke" initiative scans social media accounts of tens of thousands of student visa holders, raising concerns about free speech and government surveillance. While proponents argue it's a necessary security measure, critics fear potential abuse of power and infringement on privacy and free speech. The program also draws parallels to historical surveillance operations, such as Operation Boulder in 1972.

China Investigates Apple's App Store: Tech Giant Faces New Scrutiny

2025-02-05

China's market regulator is investigating Apple's App Store policies and fees, potentially adding fuel to the US-China trade war. The probe focuses on Apple's up to 30% commission on in-app purchases and its restriction of external payment services and app stores. This stems from long-standing disputes between Apple and developers like Tencent and ByteDance over iOS App Store policies. While not yet a formal investigation, further action could be taken if Apple fails to address concerns. Apple faces intense competition from domestic rivals like Huawei in China, adding pressure amid this regulatory scrutiny.
