A new report is sounding the alarm on VMware’s business practices under Broadcom, calling them "legally and ethically flawed." The report suggests that without external pressure, Broadcom isn’t likely to budge on its controversial licensing changes—meaning customers could be stuck with unfair terms unless regulators step in.

Editor’s Note: If you’re a business relying on VMware’s software, this isn’t great news. Broadcom’s tight grip on pricing and licensing could squeeze budgets, and without oversight, there’s little incentive for them to play fair. It’s a reminder of how much power a single tech giant can wield—and why watchdogs might need to get involved.

The FCC just decided to block Chinese testing labs from handling U.S. tech gear—like phones and computers—if they’re flagged as potential security risks. Right now, a whopping 75% of these devices get tested in Chinese facilities before hitting the market.

Editor’s Note: This could shake up how your gadgets make it to the shelf. If testing gets harder or pricier because of fewer labs, companies might pass those costs to consumers—or scramble to find new testing partners. It’s part of a bigger tug-of-war over tech security and who controls the supply chain.

Meta is catching heat again—this time for letting scam ads run wild on its platforms, particularly ones tied to fraudulent Zelle transactions. Critics are slamming the company for not doing enough to protect users, despite its promises to crack down on shady ads.

Editor’s Note: If you’ve ever scrolled past an ad that seemed too good to be true, you’re not alone. Meta’s struggle to police its platforms has real consequences—people are losing money to scams, and trust in digital ads is eroding. This isn’t just about bad ads; it’s about whether tech giants can (or will) take responsibility for what happens on their watch.
