Social media giant Meta has agreed to a $18bn (£13.3bn) settlement with US states and territories to resolve claims that Facebook and Instagram harmed children.
A California judge approved the settlement, which Meta must pay to 48 states, plus the District of Columbia and three US territories, marking the company’s largest payment over child safety litigation to date.
Meta will also implement a host of changes aimed at better protecting kids online, which the states had demanded, including default daily time limits and night-time blocks.
Meta has denied any wrongdoing as part of the settlement and said on Wednesday that the payment it agreed to “will be distributed in annual instalments over a 10-year period”.

Prime Minister Andy Burnham has told the BBC that PC Andrew Harper’s killers will remain behind bars as he announces changes to the early release scheme aimed at easing prison overcrowding.
In an exclusive interview with BBC Breakfast, Burnham said anyone convicted of manslaughter will be excluded from changes brought in under the Sentencing Act, which would have made the killers eligible for early release.
Burnham said extra prison spaces would be created by deporting “hundreds” of foreign prisoners and releasing some inmates serving indefinite sentences.

Twenty-seven people have been killed and almost 400 evacuated after a Russian strike hit a warehouse near Kyiv, triggering a fire and a series of explosions.
Regional governor Tymur Tkachenko said a further 42 people, including four children, were injured after the Russian drone strike in the Bucha district.
An investigation has been launched into whether ammunition was being stored at the site, where search and rescue operations were ongoing early on Saturday.
Russia’s Ministry of Defence said in a statement that its forces had targeted “an ammunition depot” in the Kyiv region village of Myla, which stores “components and launch boosters for FP-1/FP-2 long-range unmanned aerial vehicles”.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed his condolences to the families of the victims of the strike, saying that more than 300 emergency respondents had been deployed to the strike area.

Quite so: work at the BBC or Chatham House. Be prepared to be sneaky and underhand with political targets that bear no threat to the nation. Play dirty tricks and psycho-ops against ordinary people and confirm gas attacks that didn't happen or were not carried out by the people you will be conditioned to suspect. Oh, and provide fake evidence about Manafort meeting Assange.

Dear me how bad can the Fake News BBC get ? Is this what the Fake News BBC are passing off as News !
In the real world we have a BBC News blackout of what' happened in London yesterday.
A BBC News blackout of a Judge ordering Hilary Clinton to answer questions put by "Judicial Watch"
A BBC News Blackout of Comey giving evidence and the reopening of the Uranium 1 case. The case where Ex British Spy Christopher Steele produces the Fake Russian Dossier paid for by Hilary Clinton and the DNC etc.

So basically, if you want to spy in Britain wear a baseball cap, sunglasses and grow a big beard so they can't use facial recognition, got it, thanks BBC.

A good spy would be an atheist.
A bad spy would be someone who thinks atheists burn in hell, and there certainly are a few.

The Russian "agents" were spotted because they went to the British Embassy in Moscow had their photographs, iris scan ans fingerprints taken for a Visa for their weekend break in Britain. And these super secret assassins plan hinged on South Western Railway's Sunday timetable.

mi5 did you have cctv footage of the London nail bomber earlier on but never released it? Did you know it was going to happen so the terrorism act of 2000 got passed. Today we call them false flags.

My favorite image of a spy is the John Lecarre vision or Bill Nighy as Johnny Worricker. I have to say the Brits are the best. Alec Guinness as George Smiley is of course the best ever. There's just something so glamourous about being able to say "I'm just a civil servant in Her Majesty's government". I don't think I got it quite right but you know the line? It's like the paradox of saying you went to public school and you're speaking of Cambridge or Oxford. We don't have anything like that in the US. I suppose there's also something great about that too. Our what you see is what you get is approach has its advantages.
007 doesn't interest me anymore. I'm so tired of the Hollywood blockbuster franchise crap. Give me a six to eight part BBC series of a good spy thriller where not a single shot is fired and no one even jumps a puddle, one where someone reading a secret document in the supply closet is filled with suspense and I'm in heaven. I've watched Tinker Taylor and Smiley's People with Alec Guinness, Ian Richardson, and Bernard Hepton several times and I see things I missed each time. Bernard Hepton's evolution as Toby Esterhase into Smiley's People is brilliant he was a great and understated actor. Or maybe modest is the word? I don't want to give it away in case anyone hasn't read or seen it and wants to. I also love the old series like Callen and The Sandbaggers. Can't get enough of the wonky spies. ❤️👍
