The iconic internet pioneer joins Vimeo, WeTransfer, Evernote and Eventbrite in the Milan-based software company’s public market debut. Milan-based Bending Spoons is preparing to raise up to $1.6 billion in an initial public offering, with pricing and trading expected next week. The company has built its business by acquiring well-known but underperforming software and digital media brands, including Vimeo, WeTransfer, Evernote, Eventbrite and, most recently, AOL. Founded in 2013, Bending Spoons has pursued a digital roll-up strategy centered on acquiring mature software businesses and improving their performance through product optimization, subscription-based monetization, artificial intelligence and data-driven operations.

After reorganizing as Quantum Computer Services, the company launched Quantum Link, an online service for Commodore computers. In 1989, the service was renamed America Online, or AOL, and focused on making online access simple for mainstream consumers rather than just technology enthusiasts. Throughout the 1990s, AOL became synonymous with the consumer internet. Its aggressive distribution of free trial CDs, dial-up internet service, email platform, chat rooms and AOL Instant Messenger helped introduce millions of households to life online.

Casa Amor comes to an end and the Islanders face big decisions ahead of an explosive recoupling.

Australia's teen social media ban has been in effect since December, and the government's verdict on how it's going is pretty clear: not well enough. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced this week that Australia will double the maximum penalty for violating its social media minimum age law, raising the fine ceiling from $AUD49.5 million ($US33 million) to $AUD99 million ($US68.2 million). The government is also moving to expand the eSafety Commissioner's powers to compel platforms to hand over evidence of what they're actually doing to keep under-16s off their services. The news comes roughly six months after Australia's Online Safety Amendment Act took effect, banning platforms including Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, Facebook, X, and YouTube from allowing users under 16 to hold accounts, as Mashable previously reported. More than five million accounts have been removed, deactivated, or restricted since Dec. 10 — but according to Albanese, that's not good enough. Mashable Light Speed "It is clear that social media platforms are adopting tricks straight out of the big tech playbook and doing the bare minimum to get by," said Minister for Communications Anika Wells in the government's statement. The eSafety Commissioner is currently investigating potential non-compliance across five platforms: Facebook, Instagram

The government will also strengthen the information-gathering powers of its internet regulator, the eSafety Commissioner, allowing it to compel social media companies to provide evidence of what they have done to stop under-16s from getting an account. Under the changes, the maximum penalty for systematic failures to uphold the ban jumps to A$99 million ($68 million) from A$49.5 million. The government reiterated that eSafety is actively investigating the possible non-compliance of five platforms:

Published Today President Donald Trump welcomed farmers, ranchers and agricultural leaders to the White House Thursday night, using the event to highlight trade initiatives, ethanol policy and proposed financial assistance for agriculture. The Administration plans to use frozen Iranian funds to purchase U.S. wheat, corn and soybeans to address food shortages in Iran. Trump also reiterated his support for year-round E15. “We eliminated unnecessary restrictions on sales of E15 and I made it clear that I will sign a bill allowing E15 all year round and that was very important to the farmers.” In addition, Trump urged Congress to approve an $11 billion supplemental farm relief package.

Scottie Scheffler was in control at the Travelers Championship, and then the sky decided to join the leaderboard. The final round at TPC River Highlands was suspended at 5:57 p.m. ET because of dangerous weather, freezing a dramatic Sunday finish with Scheffler holding a one-shot lead. Rain hit the course hard just after 5 p.m. ET, and play continued briefly before electricity in the area forced officials to pull players off the course. Scheffler had been building momentum before the horn. The world’s most dangerous closer made two birdies over his final four completed holes, including a steady two-putt birdie from 39 feet on the par-5 13th. That pushed him back in front at a time when the tournament was starting to feel like a sprint through a storm. But this thing is far from over. Collin Morikawa already put a monster number in the clubhouse, firing a clean 9-under 61 to finish at 20-under for the week. His closing birdie on No. 18 was pure theater.  » Read More
