EU Considers Suspending TikTok Lites Monetization Feature
The TikTok Controversy
The European Commission is considering suspending the TikTok Lite rewards program, which incentivizes users to spend time on the platform, due to concerns about its addictive nature, especially among children. Commissioner Thierry Breton has labeled the feature as “toxic and addictive” and has given TikTok a deadline until Wednesday to defend the program before potential suspension on Thursday.
Commission’s Investigation
In response to the Commission’s actions, TikTok expressed disappointment with the decision and stated its readiness to implement interim measures, including suspending the rewards program. Additionally, the Commission has initiated formal proceedings against TikTok to assess its compliance with EU laws, particularly regarding risk assessments for product changes.

TikTok recently introduced the “Task and Rewards” program on TikTok Lite, a streamlined version of the main app designed to consume less data and storage space. Users can earn small rewards for engaging with the platform, but the Commission is investigating potential negative impacts on mental health, especially in children, due to the program’s potential to promote addictive behavior.
Age Verification Concerns
While TikTok claims that the rewards program is restricted to users over 18 with age verification mechanisms in place,
A Russian Project Scares The United States To…
Russia – The United States is trying in various ways to obstruct the implementation of the huge Russian project in the Arctic Circle, “Arctic LNG-2,” while the global economy’s need for gas paints promising prospects for the project.
The Wall Street Journal expected, in a report, that the project would bring huge profits to Russia if many countries in the world abandoned the use of coal as an energy source.
The American newspaper pointed out that Washington, by imposing sanctions on the project, is trying to obstruct “Arctic LNG-2,” which is a strategic project for Russia.
The newspaper said that the United States, through a barrage of sanctions, is trying to disrupt the project and obstruct the project’s access to liquefied gas tankers.
In an indication of Washington’s fear of the project, the newspaper quoted US Assistant Secretary of State for Energy Affairs Jeffrey Pyatt, saying, “The role of the United States is to ensure the death of the ‘Arctic LNG-2’ project.”
The report pointed out that global economies abandoning coal in favor of blue fuel will lead to a rise in global demand for liquefied gas, and this is accompanied by Russia’s intention to increase its production of liquefied natural gas by more than three times.

#suitcase #wrapped #food #foil #trend #airports
The May weekend is fast approaching, and after it we can only look forward to holidays, which is why many of us are starting to plan trips… When preparing for a flight, it is worth considering additional protection for luggage, which is exposed to all kinds of damage. This is why the trend of wrapping suitcases in foil is becoming more and more popular. What is it about and how does it work?
Food foil, which is an irreplaceable tool in the kitchen, has many practical applications. It turns out that it is also a great solution for protecting your luggage. This is why we can increasingly see tourists with suitcases wrapped in cling film at airports.

New Non-Removable Sticker MyBike Launches To Combat Bike…
Returning stolen bikes to their rightful owner will be a little easier from Tuesday, thanks to a new non-removable sticker.
The various Transport Ministers in our country will officially launch the MyBike sticker on Tuesday. The idea is to put the non-removable sticker on your bike. If your bike is stolen, the police can easily find the (current) owner based on the QR code on the sticker. An improvement over the current system, where the owner’s national registration number is often engraved into the frame of the bicycle. But what if the bike is sold? With the new MyBike system that has been in use in Brussels for some time, you can always change the owner’s contact information – for example after the bike has been sold. This means that the police will always reach the right owner, which greatly increases the chance that a stolen bike will be back in the hands of the right owner.

This week is National Bike Theft Action Week. In our country, an average of 100 bike thefts are reported to the police every day.
Tim, Vivendi Abstains On The Board Of Directors…
Listen to the audio version of the article
In the end Vivendi decided to abstain on the appointment of the Tim board of directors. One day before the meeting – which will be held tomorrow, 23 April, behind closed doors with the designated representative formula – the French shareholder, who holds 23.75% of the ordinary capital, made it known with a statement where he specifies that he will nevertheless continue the case, presented to the Court of Milan, because he disagrees with the decisions taken by the Tim board on the sale of the network. The media company headed by the Bollorè family explains that it now considers itself a “financial investor” and, as such, “is concerned that Tim’s board and management guarantee lasting growth in the share price through management decisions in the interests of the company, respectful of the prerogatives of shareholders and the principles of good governance”.
«Consequently, Vivendi – we read in the note – does not support the list presented by the outgoing board of directors, given the continuity with a board during whose mandate the stock lost half of its value and which is responsible for having approved the sale of the network fixed by Tim in November 2023 at a price that,
