Quick Glance: The US is right to target TikTok
- The US House of Representatives in March overwhelmingly passed a bill to force divestiture of TikTok from its Chinese parent.
- This TikTok divestiture is about preventing a foreign adversary from controlling a platform to deploy what I call “persuasive AI”.
- TikTok is a tool that has proven so valuable that ByteDance is spending money hand over fist on an intimidation campaign.
- The proposed legislation targets TikTok’s foreign ownership, not its content, and does not violate the First Amendment of the US constitution.

engadget.com/google-says-it-will-destroy-browsing-data-collected-from-chromes-incognito-mode-172121598.html
Quick Glance: Google to Delete Search Data of Millions Who Used 'Incognito' Mode
- Google will destroy 'billions of data records' of peoples' private browsing history as part of a settlement disclosed on Monday over the company's web-tracking practices.
- For years, Google simply informed users of Chrome's internet browser that 'you've gone Incognito' and 'now you can browse privately,' when the supposedly untraceable browsing option was turned on — without saying what bits of data the company has been harvesting.
- The suit revealed that Google saved the standard and incognito browsing history of users in the same profile to inform personalized ads that the company served up.
- Under the deal, Google will have to state that the company itself can also track browsing during incognito mode and will by default block third-party companies from tracking peoples' cookies.

Quick Glance: Fed's Kugler Forecasts Lower Rates This Year
- Inflation could moderate further this year without significant costs to jobs or economic growth, paving the way for borrowing cost cuts, according to Federal Reserve Governor Adriana Kugler.
- Weaker consumer spending is expected to slow economic growth below last year's 3.1% pace, along with a decrease in demand for workers.
- The Fed governor noted that underlying inflation rose at a 2.8% pace in February from a year earlier, significantly above policymakers' 2% target.
- The Federal Reserve will receive another update on the job market's health on Friday with the release of the monthly employment report, expected to show a gain of 213,000 jobs in March. Fed officials were divided in March on the aggressiveness of rate cuts this year.
