10:17 schestowitz[TR]; <p>Senate Intelligence Committee Chair Mark Warner, D-Virginia, has been working on the bill with Sen. John Thune, R-South Dakota. Warner said the bill will address the current threat from foreign apps. For years now, ByteDance Ltd.-owned TikTok has wrestled with U.S. politicians, always denying that is in cahoots with the Chinese Communist Party and is spying on Americans.</p>

10:18 schestowitz[TR]; <p>Interest in TikTok-related legislation is high on Capitol Hill for both parties, as TikTok's national security deal being determined by the Committee for Foreign Investment in the United States remains unfinished.</p>

10:18 schestowitz[TR]; <p>Warner and Thune's bill, called the RESTRICT Act, gives the Department of Commerce more power to review, prevent and mitigate information communications and technology transactions that pose "undue" risk.</p>

10:44 schestowitz[TR]; <p>For more than a year, Canadian Heritage Minister Pablo Rodriguez has clung to the Bill C-11 mantra of platforms in, users out. When presented with clear evidence from thousands of digital creators, the former chair of the CRTC, and numerous experts that that wasnt true, the Senate passed compromise language to ensure that platforms such as Youtube would be caught by the legislation consist

10:44 schestowitz[TR]; ent with the governments stated objective, but that user content would not. Last night, Rodriguez rejected the compromise amendment, turning his back on digital creators and a Senate process lauded as one of the most comprehensive ever. In doing so, he has left no doubt about the governments true intent with Bill C-11: retain power and flexibility to regulate user content.</p>

10:51 schestowitz[TR]; <p>According to a report from Proofpoint, TA499 targets US and European politicians, and leading businessmen and celebrities who have spoken out against Putins invasion. The primary purpose is to persuade the victims to take part in phone calls or video chats from which pro-Putin snippets can be elicited and published thereby discrediting any previous anti-Putin comments.</p>
