~Google - Google has sold its domain-hosting business to Squarespace. The acquisition is expected to close in Q3 of 2023. Squarespace will honor existing customer pricing for at least 12 months following the completion of the purchase. It will also use Google's infrastructure to ensure a "seamless transfer of domains." For existing customers, Squarespace will provide billing and support for Google Workspace customers who've already purchased domains through Google Domains. However, as time goes on and as subscriptions start to renew, these customers will likely be forced to migrate to Squarespace's billing system. The acquisition is not surprising, as Squarespace is already a behemoth in the websites and domain space. However, it is a little more surprising that Google is selling, as the company is notorious for abandoning established products at any time.

~Twitter - A group of music publishers is suing Twitter for $250 million, alleging that the company has done little to stop users from uploading and sharing copyrighted music on the platform. The lawsuit, filed by the National Music Publishers Association (NMPA), claims that Twitter has "routinely ignored" requests for takedowns and that it is one of the only major social media platforms that does not have licensing agreements in place with music publishers. The NMPA also alleges that Twitter is less likely to take action against verified accounts that share copyrighted music, even though these accounts often have large follower bases. If the lawsuit is successful, it could force Twitter to pay out millions of dollars in damages and could also lead to changes in the way the company handles copyright infringement.
