Meta survived a social media antitrust action because officials treated TikTok as an operational competitor despite its contested legal status, and regulators refused to enforce the relevant law, producing a favorable result for Meta. A court ordered a former couple to submit competitive bids for custody of their dog, with commentary suggesting extreme threats as a tactic. The Trump administration moved to curtail whistleblower protections. Pillsbury Winthrop experienced a data breach affecting client information. Arguments against releasing the Epstein Files emphasize reasons for maintaining grand jury secrecy. A proposed Ashurst and Perkins Coie merger could reshape legal practice and competition across Asia.
