On the financial front, Amazon has reported a significant increase in revenue in the second quarter, but a decreased profit compared to last year. Apple, on the other hand, has showcased strong quarterly results with a focus on iPhone sales. However, they anticipate challenges due to the strong US currency and rising interest rates.

Google has announced stricter rules for in-app advertising, aiming to eliminate unexpected full-screen ads and closing the gaps in the existing regulations. Furthermore, North Korean crypto hackers belonging to the Lazarus Group are estimated to have stolen around one billion dollars this year through attacks on cryptocurrency exchanges.

Lastly, the growth of Telegram has surpassed that of TikTok, with a growth rate of 6.2% compared to TikTok’s growth rate of 5.3%.
