AWS announced plans to launch a region in Saudi Arabia by December 2026, with major telecom players stc Group and ZainTECH already lining up partnerships to bring cloud and AI services to the
Well, here's an unexpected plot twist: Amazon, the company that quite literally built its empire on selling books, is now buying rare books in bulk, tearing off their spines, and scanning them for AI training data before destroying them. A 404 Media investigation used an AirTag hidden in
