The news: Meta is developing agentic AI tools, including one for shopping that it plans to integrate within Instagram, potentially boosting its ability to compete with TikTok Shop for ecommerce. A personalized AI assistant, codenamed Hatch, will be powered by Meta’s Muse Spark model and will be a consumer version of OpenClaw, sources told The Information . A separate agent could let Instagram users tap on items in Reels or feeds, navigate to external sites, and make purchases inside the platform. The feature could launch by Q4 of this year. This update comes a week after Meta raised its capital expenditure forecast by $10 billion—it now expects to spend up to $135 billion for the year—driven by surging AI costs. What it means: Meta wants to turn Instagram into a more seamless shopping destination, which could change how brands show up in the app and help it compete for social shoppers. We expect that about half (47.2%) of US social buyers will shop on Instagram this year, compared with TikTok’s 51%. The new AI tools could make product discovery more immediate and actionable if it reduces friction in the buying process. Brands should adapt organic content with commerce in mind.

Dua Lipa Gives Jorts a Very 2014 Tumblr Girl Spin You didn’t think Dua Lipa would leave the fashion at home during vacation, did you? The singer shared a glimpse into her and fiancé Callum Turner’s latest stop in Copenhagen, which included casual stripes and denim. However, the singer proved her prowess at elevating even the simplest pieces from her edgy, eclectic sensibility—and revived two nostalgic 2014 fashion trends in the process. During her and Turner’s travels, Lipa posed for Instagram photos in a long-sleeved, sailor-striped Ann Demeulemeester shirt. The black and white piece was tucked into a pair of blue denim jorts with distressed hems, though it could also be cinched from long black side ties. Her look’s otherwise simple pieces were instantly nostalgic, simultaneously channeling the edgy style of 2014 from its sailor stripes and ripped denim. Both trends dominated the mid-2010’s from their specific aesthetics and grungy feel, as seen on fashion-focused stars like Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, and Cara Delevingne at the time. Lipa’s 2014-coded outfit earned her signature whimsy from a wide-ranging mix of current trending accessories. The singer boosted her attire’s prints with a large, slouchy brown suede Phoebe Philo tote, complete with a

The infamous hacking group ShinyHunters has targeted two major technology firms, putting the personal details of millions of students and professionals at risk. The breaches hit Instructure, the US-based parent company behind the popular Canvas learning platform, and the video-hosting site Vimeo. Hackread.com has obtained the full list of affected institutions impacted by the Instructure data breach, and it is massive, indicating the vast scale of the theft and impacting around 15,000 institutions across the UK, Europe, and the US. Millions of Student Records Stolen from Canvas The attack on Instructure began on 30 April 2026. The company confirmed on 1 May that hackers exploited a vulnerability to gain access, forcing the company to shut down parts of its service, including Canvas Data 2 and Canvas Beta. This, in turn, caused problems for schools’ third-party integrations and external apps that rely on API keys (digital connectors) to function. “While we continue actively investigating, thus far, indications are that the information involved consists of certain identifying information of users at affected institutions, such as names, email addresses, and student ID numbers, as well as messages among users.” “At this time, we have found no evidence that passwords, dates of birth, government

The video-sharing platform Vimeo has confirmed that it was affected by a data breach linked to a wider security incident involving the analytics company Anodot. The breach, which took place in April 2026, has now been reported to have impacted more than 119,000 individuals, according to new analysis published by the data breach notification service Have I Been Pwned? Vimeo initially informed users that a security incident had occurred after attackers gained access through third-party integration features. The intrusion was associated with the ShinyHunters hacking group, which is believed to have exploited access to Anodot’s cloud-based systems. These systems included Snowflake accounts used by customers, among them Vimeo. Anodot is an artificial intelligence-driven analytics platform designed to detect anomalies in business data in real time. Organisations use it to identify issues such as sudden drops in sales, unexpected increases in costs, or technical faults that could affect operations. In this case, however, the platform’s integration capabilities appear to have been used as an entry point for unauthorised access. At the time of disclosure, Vimeo stated that the attackers may have accessed technical data, video titles and related metadata. The company also noted that in some cases, customer email addresses might
