Victim stripped naked before ‘degrading and horrific’ attack filmed on Snapchat

An attack victim was stripped naked before being subjected to a 'degrading' attack filmed on Snapchat. Twenty-year-old Josh Workman removed the victim's clothing before punching him in the ribs and head as he lay unconscious. His friend, Reuben Sawicki, 18, filmed the degrading assault and the moment Workman smashed a glass over the man's head. The victim was then dragged to a nearby field and dumped - he had sustained a fractured eye socket and jaw injuries. The defendants then contacted one of the man's relatives, who found him with the serious injuries. On Monday, Workman and Sawicki appeared at Durham Crown Court to be sentenced for assault occasioning actual bodily harm after both pleading guilty to the offence. The court heard that on August 19, last year, police were called after a man was found alone and injured in a field. An investigation was launched and six people were arrested - including Workman and Sawicki. Later, a recording of the brutal attack was discovered on Sawicki's mobile phone. The video showed a man in a hi-vis jacket lying on the floor of a home as Workman stripped him, exposing his genitals. Workman could then be seen pulling the man's

Snap is seemingly rethinking that ‘simplified’ app – Engadget

A Snapchat redesign test appears to have stalled after power users seemingly disliked the "simplified" layout. The new version of Snapchat intended "to help new and casual users" navigate the app, according to Snap’s Q1 investor letter , released on April 29. As reported by TechCrunch, the overhauled app removed the Snap Map and Stories tabs. A proposed new three-tab navigation bar focused on chat, the camera and Spotlight (Snapchat’s answer to TikTok.) The report doesn’t specify how long the testing phase went on for or how widespread it was. For now at least, Snap is seemingly reconsidering. "Our most engaged Snapchatters consistently demonstrated a preference for a five-tab layout," the company wrote in that same investor letter. While it does not specifically say it's ending tests of the simplified version, Snap notes it has "begun testing a refined five-tab interface that combines the best of both approaches." Engadget reached out to Snap for comment on if this layout is no longer being deployed to users. We’ll update this article if we receive a response. Snap has a pretty rough track record where redesigns are concerned. In 2017 the company tried to reorient its flagship app around separating friend-related posts

Founded in 1978, the Savannah College of Art and Design now has over 15,000 students. (The Current) The Savannah College of Art and Design said it is investigating a viral social media post of an alleged “No Jews” party invitation on campus. SCAD said its initial investigation into the Snapchat screenshot has turned up no evidence that such a party actually occurred on SCAD property, nor was any “discriminatory signage” found on campus, according to a university statement.  The person who posted the picture “is not a currently enrolled student at SCAD.” University leadership was made aware of the post on Thursday evening, it said.  Screenshot of an alleged SCAD Savannah party invite that says “No Jews.” The post has been spreading online. (StopAntisemtism’s X account) The antisemitic screenshot comes at a time of heightened political tension and fear on U.S. college campuses by Jewish students as well as pro-Palestinian ones.  Authorities have taken increased notice since protests exploded on university campuses last year against Israel’s killing of Palestinian civilians during its war against Hamas. Some protests were organized by SCAD students in Atlanta and Savannah. The viral post has been elevated by the StopAntisemitism account on X, a group with a major

Mark Zuckerberg Declares the End of Traditional Social Media – TechStory

There was a time when Facebook was the place to catch up with friends, spot relationship updates, or hear about parties you weren’t invited to. Social media was built around real-life connections and personal updates. Fast forward to today, and those personal touches have largely disappeared. Instead, platforms like Facebook and Instagram are now flooded with celebrity promos, political debates, pop culture clips, and a growing flood of AI-generated content. The social side of social media has taken a back seat. Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, acknowledged this transformation while testifying during a major antitrust trial brought by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) last week. He described how Meta’s focus has shifted towards “entertainment and learning about the world” rather than fostering personal interactions. Internal data backs him up: the time users spend engaging with friends’ posts on Facebook has dropped from 22% to 17%, and on Instagram, from 11% to just 7% over the past two years. Meta’s Argument: Social Media Has Outgrown Old Definitions The FTC accuses Meta of illegally building a monopoly in the “personal social networking services” market by acquiring rising competitors like Instagram in 2012 and WhatsApp in 2014. But defining that market has been
