OpenAI investors considering lawsuits against the board after Sam Altman abrupt firing
Reuters

Some investors in OpenAI, are exploring legal actions against OpenAI board members after the directors fired CEO Sam Altman & sparked a potential mass exodus of employees.

Investors are working with legal advisers to study their options as they are worried that they could lose hundreds of millions of dollars they invested in OpenAI.
It was NOT clear if these investors will sue OpenAI

Even if investors found a way to sue, they would have a "weak case." says experts

Microsoft owns 49% of the for-profit operating company.
Other investors & employees control 49%, with 2% owned by OpenAI's nonprofit parent.

But OpenAI is controlled by its nonprofit parent company OpenAI Non-profit.
As a result, employees have more leverage in pressuring the board THAN the venture capitalists who helped fund the company

New OpenAI CEO Emmett Shear considering resigning if Board won't tell why Altman was fired
Bloomberg

Previously, Board members said that Sam Altman was not “consistently candid in his communications.” and that's why they fired him

But the employees claimed that Sam Altman removal was "unrelated" to malfeasance or “safety,”

Satya Nadella said publicly that he has been given NO explanation by the board members as to why Sam Altman was fired

Even Former Twitch CEO & OpenAI New CEO Emmett Shear has been left in the dark.

He has told people close to OpenAI that he will also RESIGN if the board cannot clearly communicate to him "in writing" its reasoning for Altman’s sudden firing.

If Altman returns, he will become CEO of the OpenAI and additionally, Altman will also become a director on a transitional board

Sam Altman is BACK as OpenAI CEO again

" UNO Reverse "

Sam Altman will return as CEO of OpenAI along with former President Greg Brockman

ALL the Board members have RESIGNED after firing Sam Altman except Adam D’Angelo, who is a holdover from the previous board as he remains on this new board to give the previous board some representation

The new board comprises of just 3 members & their main job is to vet and appoint an expanded board of up to 9 people that will reset the governance of OpenAI

Microsoft also wants to have a seat on that expanded board and Sam Altman himself will also serve as a board member in future

New OpenAI CEO Emmett Shear has RESIGNED from OpenAI after staying as its CEO for just 72 hours.

However, Verge was told that both sides have agreed to an "investigation" into this whole saga.
That investigation will be done by an outside, independent law firm.

Honestly, after watching the whole SAGA, OpenAI deserves its own MOVIE at this point

First Nothing Chats, now Sunbird shuts down its iMessage for Android app

The Sunbird app also NO longer appears on PlayStore after Nothing Chats.

Also, Sunbird is a very sussy company with whom Carl Pei partnered

Sunbird announced iMessage for Android in December 2022
But during the press invitation, Sunbird did NOT answer any technical question about app's privacy & security claims.

Sunbird then started a "waitlist" for its app access & promised rolling-out invitations to their app's "beta" access

In April, Sunbird boasted it had 100,000 sign-ups on the waitlist & gets 2500+ sign ups daily.
So it's giving Sunbird app to 200 "alpha" testers

So, beta test changed to alpha & giving app's access to only 200 out of 2500+ daily sign-ups

Then Sunbird claimed 93% success rate for their iMessage app".
This means that 7% of the messages ends up in a black hole.

In April, Sunbird also promised a "Summer 2023 launch" which NEVER happened.

That's why Nothing Chats ended up being a shitshow

Apple files court case against EU's Digital Markets Act

Apple has filed a legal case challenging decisions taken by the European Commission under its Digital Markets Act

EU's DMA objective is to make it easier for people to move between competing services, requiring them to inter-operate their messaging apps with rivals and let users decide which apps to pre-install on their devices.

While details of Apple's legal challenge have NOT been made public, Bloomberg earlier reported that Apple would challenge the inclusion of Apple's App Store as a gatekeeper.

EU has been successful in forcing Apple to follow universal standards

For example, When Americans asked Apple to add RCS compatibility so that they could also send high-quality videos to their friends/ relatives using Android

Tim Cook responded, "Buy your Mom, an iPhone!"
But when Europeans asked about RCS compatibility, Apple said "Alright".

iMessage was NOT a Gatekeeper for the EU's DMA and nevertheless Apple still added RCS

JUST IN: You still cannot bootloader unlock Asus smartphone

ASUS provides its own unlocking tool for its phones same as Chinese brands
Previously, Asus announced that it's temporarily stopping its Unlocking tool service to add support for Asus Zenfone 10 unlocking and the service will resume in Q3

Previously, a conversation with Asus support revealed that ASUS had killed the ability to bootloader unlock & root its smartphones — namely the Zenfone and ROG Phone series.

But Asus denied the report claiming staff was misunderstood and clarified that it would be available in the future, stay tuned.

Unfortunately, it's been 2 months now since Q3 is over and the situation remains the same.

All Zenfone 10 users and others who bought Asus smartphones recently have been unable to unlock their phone’s bootloader as the tool is still offline

Google's Manifest V3 changes will BLOCK uBlock Origin on Chromium based browsers

uBlock Origin is one of the BEST ad blocker extensions for Google Chrome

Google will now deprecate Manifest V2 & roll out Manifest V3, allowing Chrome to restrict APIs & features to reduce negative impact & fix security issues caused by older API's

Google will deprecate Web Request API in Manifest V3 because it's pretty dangerous since extensions could access & modify ALL the data in a network request, basically changing everything that a user could do on the web

Now, Declarative Net Request API will become the primary way as the extensions cannot access all the network information.

But uBlock Origin uses the Web Request API to perform their ad-blocking functions
So, deprecating Web Request API will KILL uBlock Origin.

Although, uBlock Origin Lite exist & is even Manifest V3-compliant but it is NOT as powerful as uBlock Origin

Note: This APPLIES to Chromium based browsers as well
