Google to ban ads on cryptocurrencies, related products

Image
Alphabet Inc’s Google said on Wednesday it will ban advertisements for cryptocurrencies and related content starting in June. Under the new policy, the company will ban ads for unregulated or speculative financial products like binary options, cryptocurrency and financial spread betting among others. In a separate blog post, Google said it took down 3.2 billion ads that violated its advertising policies in 2017, nearly double the number of ads it removed in 2016. "Improving the ads experience across the web, whether that's removing harmful ads or intrusive ads, will continue to be a top priority for us," Scott Spencer, director of sustainable ads, said. In January, Facebook Inc said it will ban ads promoting financial products and services tied to cryptocurrencies and initial coin offerings. The policy will be implemented across its platforms, including Facebook, Audience Network and Instagram, the company said.

Self-piloted flying taxis are being tested in New Zealand as part of a project backed by Google co-founder Larry

Wellington: Self-piloted flying taxis are being tested in New Zealand as part of a project backed by Google co-founder Larry Page that supporters say will revolutionise personal transport. New Zealand regulators on Tuesday approved plans for Zephyr Airworks, a subsidiary of Page´s company Kitty Hawk, to develop and test the futuristic air taxis. Known as Cora, the electric aircraft has a dozen lift fans on its wings, making it capable of vertical take-off and landing like a helicopter. But developers say it is much quieter, meaning it could transport passengers in urban areas using rooftops and car parks as landing pads. "We are offering a pollution free, emission free vehicle that flies dependably, we think this is the logical next step in the evolution of transportation," Zephyr chief executive Fred Reid said. The Cora prototype being tested in New Zealand´s South Island uses three on-board computers to calculate its flight path and is capable of carrying two...

Internet overseers weigh website owner privacy

Image
SAN FRANCISCO: The group overseeing Internet addresses is scrambling to balance the privacy of website owners and the right to know who is behind online pages. The nonprofit Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) began a weeklong meeting Monday focused on the fate of the public Whois database, which shows contact information for those who own websites. A General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) set to take effect in the European Union on May 25 could make revealing personal information about website owners in Whois illegal. This week´s ICANN meeting in Puerto Rico is the last before the GDPR deadline. "We will try to find a path forward," ICANN global domains division president Akram Atallah told AFP in a telephone interview. "There is a lot of work still to be done, but we are working as fast as possible." While the GDPR backs the right of people to "be forgotten" online, it raises the question of whether to shield per...

Alone at health clinic, Australian treats self for heart attack

Image
SYDNEY: Alone at a health clinic in a small, remote seaside settlement in Australia, a 44-year-old nurse sensed he was having a heart attack and sprang into action, saving his own life, a report said Wednesday. The man, whose name was withheld for privacy reasons, experienced severe chest pain and dizziness while he was the sole medical professional on duty at a nursing post in Coral Bay, more than 600 miles (1,000 kilometers) from Perth, the capital of Western Australia, said the account published in the New England Journal of Medicine. With the next medical facility 90 miles (150 kilometers) away and no one else around to help, he hooked himself up to an electrocardiogram (EKG), which showed a complete heart block that may have been due to an evolving heart attack. The man then performed another EKG on himself, which confirmed the diagnosis of a heart attack. He emailed the results to a doctor via the Emergency Telehealth Service (ETS), and found an emergency physician to ...
