TikTok has risen in popularity quickly, especially among younger users, with its short video format and viral challenges. However, concerns about privacy and data security have plagued the app since its inception. The idea that user data could potentially be accessed by the Chinese government has led to calls for action to be taken against TikTok in the United States.
The legislation passed by the House Energy and Commerce Committee is a step in that direction. By forcing ByteDance to sell its ownership of TikTok or face a ban in the US, the bill aims to protect American users’ data and privacy. While TikTok has denied any wrongdoing, the potential risks associated with a foreign-owned app having access to user data are too great to ignore.
If this bill does indeed make it to President Biden’s desk and is signed into law, it could have a significant impact on the app’s future in the US. TikTok would either have to comply with the new regulations or face being banned from the country altogether.
The Florida Senate has recently passed a bill that places a ban on homeless camps to address the homelessness crisis in the state. This new legislation will require cities and counties to prevent individuals from sleeping in public places, forcing local governments to create designated encampment sites instead.
While some see this bill as a positive step towards addressing homelessness and providing necessary services to those in need, others are wary of the potential consequences. Critics argue that criminalizing homelessness by banning individuals from public spaces and threatening them with arrest is not a solution to the root causes of homelessness. They also raise concerns about the lack of provisions for safety, sanitation, and basic necessities in these encampment sites.
Despite the controversy surrounding the bill, Governor Ron DeSantis has expressed his support for it and is expected to sign it into law soon. Proponents of the bill, such as Ron Book of the Miami-Dade Homeless Trust, believe that while the bill may not be perfect, it is a step in the right direction. Book emphasizes the need for a comprehensive plan, adequate funding, and strong leadership to effectively address homelessness in the state.
Implementing this program statewide would come with a hefty price tag of over $500 million.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee is anticipated to make a ruling this week over whether District Attorney Fani Willis and/or special prosecutor Nathan Wade — with whom she had a romantic relationship — should be disqualified from their investigation and subsequent indictment of former President Donald Trump.
On March 1, McAfee heard three hours worth of closing arguments from attorneys representing Willis and some of Trump’s co-defendants, and said he hoped to make a decision on the case “over the next two weeks.” That two-week window expires on Friday, March 15, meaning Georgia’s March 12 presidential primary could be held while McAfee is still making his decision.
Willis is the locally elected district attorney who issued dozens of indictments in August 2023 accusing the nation’s 45th president and his allies of trying to overturn Georgia’s 2020 election results.
Willis is facing allegations she misused taxpayer funds and crossed ethical boundaries during her romantic relationship with Wade.
Heading into election day Tuesday, nearly 440,000 people have already voted in Georgia’s presidential primary, and most of them have cast Republican ballots. Early voting ended Friday with a turnout of about 416,000 in-person voters during the past three weeks, according to state election data. An additional 24,000 voters have returned absentee ballots.
The winds will be steady around 25 mph but we could see gust up to 55 mph possible. The gusty winds could blow around unsecured objects and could cause damage to tree limbs and branches.
Watch out for fallen debris as well as limbs falling into power lines that could cause power outages across the area. The Wind Advisory is in place until 5 p.m. and should subside by the early evening.
Baltimore Police Commissioner Richard Worley has announced plans to increase traffic stops for traffic violations in the coming weeks.
In an interview on WBAL NewsRadio’s Jayne Miller show, Worley said that the move aims to address the rise in fatal crashes, severe injuries, and road rage incidents linked to speeding and other traffic violations.
“Believe it or not, it is one of my pet peeves over the last couple of months, more so, especially the more I drive around in the city,” Worley said.
Worley described why the police department plans to focus on traffic enforcement.
“Part of the reason is, not only the fact that we’re disregarding the these signs and the speed limits and the stop signs and the parking signs, but the fact that we have vehicles speeding that are causing more fatal crashes and more severe injuries,” Worley said.
Worley expressed concern about the surge in road rage, noting an increase in incidents involving firearms, leading to shootings.
“What’s happening is so many people were carrying guns and the road rage are leading to more and more shootings,” he said. “We have them probably one or two a week where it’s either a shooting at or a shooting or something really egregious. That would not have happened five or six years ago had it not been for the guns being here and the road rage that people express for simple things that really shouldn’t amount to anger issues like that.”
