The notice comes shortly after a similar missive was sent to WhatsApp on Wednesday (July 1, 2026). The Meta-owned messaging platform is yet to implement the feature anywhere in the world, but is taking reservations for usernames. Spokespersons for Telegram and Signal did not have an immediate comment to share on the notices (Telegram was contacted outside normal business hours in the United Arab Emirates). The username feature appeared to remain available on both platforms well into Thursday evening. The Union government’s move against the three messaging platforms comes on the heels of a week-long ban of Telegram, after authorities argued that backdated PDF files could lead to people mistakenly assuming a question paper was leaked. Telegram fought against the ban in the Delhi High Court, calling the move a “mistake”. The court sided with the government, holding the short ban a proportionate response. Telegram was unblocked after

Cross-country coach charged What we know: Sutton Thomas Junkermeier, 26, of Lake Lillian, Minnesota, faces three counts of harassment — two being felonies with a victim under age 18. According to charges filed in Meeker County, on June 24, 2026, law enforcement received a report from the mother of a 16-year-old female concerning receiving explicit images and messages from Junkermeier.

The NBA has a way of hijacking the sports world’s attention, even in the depths of the offseason. The sport proved as much Wednesday, as the Boston Celtics shockingly shipped guard Jaylen Brown to the Philadelphia 76ers for a package involving Paul George. The deal was met with … a lot of questions for the Celtics. While Brown isn’t an analytical darling, he has a track record of rising to the occasion. He was, after all, the MVP of the 2023-24 NBA Finals. George, on the other hand, is an injury-riddled 36-year-old whose most well-known nickname — Playoff P — is not a compliment. Despite that, the Celtics felt the need to part ways with Brown. The team seemed intent on making that a reality the entire offseason, reportedly dangling Brown in trades for Giannis Antetokounmpo and offering Brown to the Minnesota Timberwolves before the team acquired LaMelo Ball. Why? That’s the question most analysts asked amid the Brown trade rumors. Why did the Celtics feel it was necessary to move on from a player who consistently delivered for the franchise. Turns out, there were a few behind the scenes reasons for the team wanting to move on, according to

MeriTalk MeriTalk Published Jul 2, 2026 Welcome to The Wrap for Thursday, July 2! From the newsroom at MeriTalk, it’s the quickest read in Federal tech news. Here’s what you need to know today: DOD’s New Drone Boss Defense Secretary  Pete Hegseth  is establishing a new  drone boss  to serve as the  Defense Department’s  (DOD) single integrator for unmanned and autonomous systems – because the drone lane needed an air traffic controller. The new direct reporting portfolio manager for unmanned offensive and defensive systems, or  DRPM-UxS,  will oversee  development, procurement, fielding, sustainment, and operations  across all military domains. Hegseth’s  June 29 memo  says adversaries are producing millions of unmanned systems each year, while  the United States has been slow to field them at scale.  The office will have authority over small unmanned aerial systems, surface vessels, underwater vessels, ground systems, autonomy, artificial intelligence, swarming software, counter-drone systems, and related marketplaces.  The clock is already ticking:  DOD must hire staff within 30 days, submit an org chart within 60 days, and deliver a departmentwide inventory and implementation plan within 90 days. DOGE’s Quiet Exit The White House does not plan to issue a  final report  before the Department of Government Efficiency   (DOGE)
