Trump is also banned on YouTube

After Facebook and Twitter, Donald Trump was also banned on YouTube. Trump will not be able to upload videos and live streaming from his channel for at least a week.

The decision was made after the channel took a strike, according to Google-owned YouTube. Prohibition time may increase.

Local time on Tuesday evening before the shutdown, President Trump posted several videos, some of which are still online.

However, a spokesman for YouTube told CNN Business that a video from Trump's channel had provoked violence. Without giving details of the video, YouTube says it has already been removed.

In a statement, YouTube said, "We found that a special video from Trump's YouTube account was provocative. That's why we removed the video. Action has since been taken against the account for breach of policy. According to our strike system, new videos cannot be uploaded or live-streamed for seven days at this time. This period may be extended further.

'Ice Robot' is coming

 

A few days ago we learned about making drones with pineapple leaves. And this time it was known about the robot made of ice.

This 'ice robot' was created by a team of researchers from the University of Pennsylvania's Grap Lab. This robot capable of reconstructing itself will be sent to space missions.

Details of the robot were unveiled at the International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS). It is reported that since ice will be found in all galaxies, these ice robots will be able to repair themselves. Automatic configuration feature has been added to the robot. Replica robots can also be made easily.

The ice robot weighs only 7.3 kilograms. Can move comfortably if not melted at room temperature.

Researchers are very optimistic about this ice robot. Devin Carroll, a member of the research team, told IEEE Spectrum that he and his co-inventor Mark Yim invented the ice robot with the intention of building a robotic system operated from remotely available material in remote or hostile environments.

Taiwan will make Chinese cars

 

Foxconn has signed a deal with Byton, a Chinese company that makes electric cars. Byton, Foxconn and Nanjing Development Zone signed an agreement on Monday to jointly produce Byton's M-Byte SUV in the first quarter of 2022.

Through the agreement, the Taiwanese company will allow Byton to use its own expertise in advanced manufacturing technology, activities management experience in the production of the first car, as well as the knowledge and resources acquired in this sector.

Foxconn unveiled a set of tools last year, according to CNBC. With this tool, car manufacturers will be able to design large parts for electric vehicles. The Taiwanese company will later produce these parts. In addition to car chassis, this tool also contains software.

Foxconn is already working to supply products to Tesla and several other carmakers.

Japan builds 'wooden' satellite

Sumitomo Forestry, a Japanese company, and Kyoto University are jointly building the world's first wooden satellite. To be successful in building it by 2023, Sumitomo Forestry has already begun research on tree growth and the use of wood components in space.

Takao Doi, a professor at Kyoto University and a Japanese astronaut, told the BBC: "The next step in the research is to create an engineering model of the satellite, then we will produce a flight model."

Doi went to the International Space Station in March 2008 as an astronaut. He was the first human to launch a boomerang in space during that mission. The boomerang was designed to work in microgravity.

Sumitomo Forestry is part of the Sumitomo Group. The company says it will be made of wood that is highly tolerant to temperature and sun changes.

According to the World Economic Forum, about six thousand satellites are orbiting the earth. About 60 percent of this is space garbage.

Research firm Euroconsult estimates that an average of 990 satellites will be launched each year this decade. As a result, by 2028, the number of satellites in orbit may be about 15 thousand.

Zoom will come with email service!

 

Whether there will ever be more growth in video conferencing services beyond 2020 could be debated. However, there is no dispute that Zoom has been able to do it on its own this year. Despite the presence of heavyweight apps like Skype, Google Meet, etc., it is a mystery how Zoom took the place of the top video conferencing app. So one step further, Zoom is going to sign up for the email service.

Such an indication has been given in a report of The Information. Zoom has been working on email services for some time now. The report states that the service will be provided to certain customers in a few days. Zoom can also bring relevant calendar services with email. Also the services that Zoom can come up with include chat feature and job posting service. In the case of enterprise software, it can be said in advance that Zoom will compete well with the top two names, Microsoft and Google.

Nuro will deliver the goods in self-driving vehicles in California

 

For the first time, robotics company Nuro has been allowed to operate its own self-propelled vehicles commercially in California. The Silicon Valley company is set to begin offering driverless delivery services with the approval it received on Wednesday.

In this new service, a human operator will control several self-driving vehicles from a few miles away. As a result, the way to make a profit has opened up from the investment of self-driven technology in delivery service.

Nuro has been testing self-propelled vehicles on California roads since 2017. As a result, the state regulator allowed the company to test two driverless delivery vehicles in nine cities earlier this year.

The company says it will initially launch delivery services with Toyota Prius models. Then they will take to the streets with their own low-speed R-2 cars, where there are no pedals or steering wheels. There is only room for packing goods.

Nuro raised 500 million last month to add a new dimension to the e-commerce business in the Covid-19 epidemic.

Earlier in February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration allowed the California Mountain View-based company to deliver goods without human control and 5,000 low-speed electric vehicles with looking glass and steering wheel.

China Launches Anti-Monopoly Investigation Into Alibaba

 

China has launched an investigation into the Alibaba group. The country's regulatory body said on Thursday that it was investigating the policy of monopolizing business.

Earlier, the e-commerce giant was warned about the so-called "choose one of two" practice. Under the offer, merchants had to sign a contract that prevented them from delivering goods on a competing platform.

The country's State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) said in an online statement that a thorough investigation had been launched into the matter.

Meanwhile, the People's Bank of China said that the financial regulator will also attack Alibaba's Ant Group in the future to investigate.

The online statement said Ant Group would be given guidance on financial oversight, implementation of fair competition and protection of the legitimate rights and interests of consumers.

Acknowledging receipt of the notice from the regulatory body, Ant Group said it was taking the matter seriously and would make every effort to strictly comply with all regulations of the regulatory body.

Originally, about 40 percent of Ant's total revenue in the first half of the year came from the lucrative loan business. And through this, Gruti's empire suddenly blossomed and made the regulatory body uneasy.

Apple targets car production by 2024, Reuters

 

Apple's car has been discussed several times before, but it did not get water. Apple's reputation as a maker of valuable electronics products could be ideal for entering the car market. However, Apple has never been so keen to take part in the fierce battles of conventional car manufacturers. But this time it may not be possible for the Cupertino-based hardware company to miss out on the fancy electric car market. Reuters says, this Apple car will be seen in 2024.

An exclusive news release from Reuters announced the arrival of the Apple Car for the first time on a specific date. The report claims that Apple's self-driving car will have a 'battery of unimaginable technology'. And for the LIDAR technology used in such cars, Apple has to resort to a third company. Monosell battery in this car will guarantee long life and distance. However, the report does not specify in detail how these proprietary technologies will be incorporated into this potential car.
