This year, VidCon did something it had never done before: it honored the creators who helped build the internet as we know it. At the first-ever Hall of Fame ceremony, nine iconic YouTubers — including Joey Graceffa, Tyler Oakley, Rhett & Link, Rosanna Pansino, Hank Green, Grace Helbig, and the SMOSH duo — were inducted for their lasting impact. Naturally, we had to ask them: Who else deserves a spot? SEE ALSO: YouTube turns 20: How one video at the zoo changed the internet forever Who should VidCon induct into its Hall of Fame next? One name came up again and again: Philip DeFranco. The content creator has 6.6 million subscribers and has been on YouTube since 2006, so next year would mark two decades on the site. Helbig and the SMOSH co-founders both remarked that his cultural critique and news videos are still making an impact on the internet today. Helbig also noted, "I mean, we have half of a Green brother; I think we need the other Green brother." John...

On Wednesday, the judge in the landmark AI copyright case Kadrey, et al. v. Meta Platforms Inc. ruled in Meta’s favor . And U.S. District Judge Vince Chhabria seemed to do so reluctantly, calling his own ruling “in significant tension with reality.” Thirteen authors, including Sarah Silverman, Ta-Nehisi Coates, and Junot Diaz, sued Meta for its unlicensed use of their books to train its Llama AI models. The facts of the case seemed particularly egregious. Not only did Meta pirate unlicensed copies of the authors’ works, but internal Meta messages revealed during discovery showed that the company's own employees expressed legal and ethical doubts about pirating those works. Other messages suggest that employees sought to eliminate traces of piracy, looking for words like "stolen" and "pirated" as part of the team's "mitigation" efforts. Instead of settling the messy copyright battle over AI training, Chhabria's ruling adds another layer...

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders recently returned to the Joe Rogan podcast, where he argued that if artificial intelligence makes workers more productive , then the obvious trade-off should be a lighter work week. To be specific, he argued for shifting the work week to just four days. Sanders made the comments during a June 24 episode of Joe Rogan's podcast . "You are a worker, your productivity is increasing because we give you AI, right?" Sanders said. "Instead of throwing you out on the street, I’m going to reduce your work week to 32 hours." He added: "By the way, not a radical idea. There are companies around the world that are doing it, with some success." Sanders has regularly advocated for a four-day work week and noted the United Auto Workers union pushed hard for it in their latest contract negotiation. Last year, the senator introduced the Thirty-Two Hour Workweek Act , which emphasized that moving to a shorter work week should occu...

Apple has introduced new fee structures for developers using the App Store in the EU in order to meet the requirements of the bloc's Digital Markets Act. Last month, the European Commission ruled that Apple was not in compliance the legislation and ordered the company to make changes within 30 days. Apple can still file an appeal of the decision until July 7. The new terms make things a little complicated. When apps promote offers for digital goods or services in the EU, they'll be subject to an "initial acquisition fee" and a "store services fee" as well as a Core Technology Fee for apps with more than 1 million annual installs. Developers who agree to the StoreKit External Purchase Link Entitlement (EU) Addendum will be charged a Core Technology Commission (CTC) of 5 percent rather than the CTF. The CTC applies to "all sales of digital goods or services that occur within a 12-month period from the date of an install, including app updates and reins...

Cybersecurity researchers at Kaspersky have uncovered a new and dangerous malware strain, which they believe has been active since at least Feb. 2024. Dubbed SparkKitty, the malware is part of the broader SparkCat family — a line of Trojan horse programs designed to steal cryptocurrency from unsuspecting users. Kaspersky first discovered the original SparkCat malware in Jan. 2025, noting that it had already made its way onto both the Google Play Store and Apple’s App Store. SEE ALSO: Scammers tricked TikTok users into downloading malware with AI videos Like many trojans, these malicious apps disguise themselves as legitimate software. In the crypto world, this can be especially risky. The researchers say that one such Android app, SOEX, posed as a messaging platform with cryptocurrency trading features. They say it racked up more than 10,000 downloads on Google Play before being flagged. Kaspersky researchers found a similar app on the iOS app store, as well as modified versi...
