Texas alleges hidden danger from Netflix data collection for kids, families

The state of Texas announced a lawsuit against streaming giant Netflix on Monday, accusing the company of spying on children and other consumers by collecting their data without consent and designing the platform to be addictive.

Texas claims that Netflix has falsely represented to consumers that it didn’t collect or share user data while it actually tracked and sold viewers’ habits and preferences to commercial data brokers and advertising technology companies.

The lawsuit, filed by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, claims that “Netflix’s endgame is simple and lucrative: get children and families glued to the screen, harvest their data while they are stuck there, and then monetize the data for a handsome profit.”

“When you watch Netflix, Netflix watched you,” Texas added in the lawsuit.

The complaint quotes comments made by former CEO Reed Hastings who said in 2020, while he was still leading the streaming company, that “we don’t collect anything,” amid questions over Big Tech companies’ data collection practices.

Netflix was also accused of quietly using “dark patterns” to keep users watching on its platform, such as an autoplay feature that starts a new show after a different show ends.

Paxton said in a press release that Netflix “has built a surveillance program designed to illegally collect and profit from Texans’ personal data without their consent, and my office will do everything in our power to stop it.”

The attorney general said he’s charging Netflix under the state’s Deceptive Trade Practices Act and seeks to require Netflix to stop the unlawful collection and disclosure of user data, require Netflix to disable autoplay by default on kid’s profiles, and to secure injunctive relief and civil penalties.

Hawley introduces bill to suspend gas tax amid Iran price hike

Hawley introduces bill to suspend gas tax amid Iran price hike

FIRST ON FOX: Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., is introducing legislation to suspend the federal gas tax, Fox News has learned.

The move comes just hours after President Donald Trump confirmed he supports taking the measure, which would require an act of Congress. Gas prices spiked to over $4.52 this weekend as the conflict with Iran continues, according to AAA.

Hawley’s Gas Tax Suspension Act would pause both the 18.4 cent gas tax and the 24.4 cent diesel tax for 90 days upon passage. The bill would also allow Trump to extend the suspension for an additional 90 days if he determines it is necessary.

“President Trump has proposed to suspend the federal gas tax and he’s exactly right,” Hawley told Fox News Digital in a statement. “American workers and families deserve immediate relief and this legislation will do just that.”

“We’re going to take off the gas tax for a period of time, and when gas goes down, we’ll let it phase back in,” Trump told CBS.

Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Sunday the Trump administration was open to suspending the tax, though he framed the potential suspension as part of a broader effort by the administration to respond to higher energy costs.

“We are working every day to offset this rise in prices because of a critical conflict in Iran to drive prices down and we’re open to all such ideas,” Wright said.

Is Doncic Playing for Lakers vs Thunder Game 4 Today?

Published

on

Luka Doncic

LOS ANGELES — Luka Doncic will miss his ninth consecutive game when the Los Angeles Lakers host the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals on Monday night, continuing his recovery from a Grade 2 left hamstring strain that has sidelined him since early April.

The Lakers officially listed Doncic as out on their injury report released Monday afternoon, with no change in status from previous games. The Slovenian superstar has been progressing in his rehabilitation — recently beginning running — but remains well short of full basketball activity as the team fights to avoid a sweep.

Eight-week timeline looms large

Doncic suffered the injury on April 2 against these same Thunder. The initial MRI projected an eight-week recovery window, placing a potential return around early June. At five weeks post-injury, he has begun running but has not progressed to on-court contact, 5-on-5 work or game-speed drills.

Advertisement

In his most detailed public update last week, Doncic acknowledged the conservative timeline. “The doctor said eight weeks at the beginning of the first MRI,” he told reporters. “I’m just going day by day, and I feel better every day.” He has traveled to Europe for specialized treatment but has not accelerated the process beyond medical guidance.

Lakers desperate without their star

Without Doncic, the Lakers have leaned heavily on LeBron James and a supporting cast that includes Austin Reaves, Rui Hachimura and D’Angelo Russell. The team has shown flashes of competitiveness but has been unable to match Oklahoma City’s depth, athleticism and defensive versatility. The Thunder lead the series 3-0 heading into Monday’s must-win game at Crypto.com Arena.

Coach JJ Redick has emphasized adjustments and next-man-up mentality, but the absence of Doncic’s scoring gravity, playmaking and size has been glaring. James has logged heavy minutes, but the offensive ceiling without the 30-point, 8-assist threat has proven difficult to reach consistently.

Advertisement

Medical and long-term outlook

Medical experts note that Grade 2 hamstring strains carry significant re-injury risk if rushed. The Lakers are taking a measured approach, prioritizing Doncic’s long-term health over a desperate playoff push. Even if the Lakers extend the series, a return in the Western Conference finals would require rapid progression in the coming days.

Doncic has dealt with lower-body soft-tissue issues in recent seasons. This latest strain, described as more severe than previous ones, has tested both his patience and the organization’s contingency planning.

Thunder capitalize on Lakers’ vulnerabilities

Oklahoma City has exploited the mismatch effectively. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder’s deep roster have dominated transition play and the glass, building double-digit leads in each of the first three games. Coach Mark Daigneault’s team enters Game 4 with a chance to sweep and advance to the Western Conference finals.

The Thunder have shown championship poise, maintaining focus despite the Lakers’ home-court energy. Their length and switching defense have neutralized much of Los Angeles’ half-court offense in Doncic’s absence.

Fan frustration and broader implications

Lakers fans have expressed a mix of disappointment and realism on social media. Many hoped for a miracle return, but the eight-week timeline and medical updates have tempered expectations. The organization’s investment in pairing James with Doncic faces its first major test, with questions about roster construction and future flexibility likely to intensify if the series ends quickly.

Advertisement

A sweep would mark another early postseason exit and intensify scrutiny on front-office decisions. General manager Rob Pelinka faces difficult choices this offseason regardless of the outcome, particularly around supporting cast construction and managing aging stars.

Path forward for Doncic and Lakers

For Doncic, the focus remains steady rehabilitation. If the original timeline holds, he could target late May for basketball activities, potentially aligning with a hypothetical Conference Finals appearance. Any earlier return would require pain-free running, strength testing and medical clearance.

The Lakers, meanwhile, must find answers quickly. Monday night’s Game 4 represents more than survival — it is a chance to salvage pride, extend the series and buy time for potential reinforcements. Whether they can force the Thunder into a longer battle without their star remains to be seen.

Advertisement

As Crypto.com Arena prepares for what could be a pivotal home game, the spotlight remains on Doncic’s recovery timeline and the Lakers’ ability to compete shorthanded. The hamstring injury has tested the franchise’s depth and resilience at the worst possible moment, leaving fans hoping for a miracle in a season defined by high expectations.

Game 4 tips off at 10:30 p.m. ET on Prime Video. While Doncic watches from the sideline, the Lakers will attempt to defy the odds and keep their season alive against a Thunder team playing with championship momentum.

Saudi Aramco CEO warns oil markets may not normalize until 2027

Saudi Aramco CEO warns oil markets may not normalize until 2027

The CEO of Saudi Arabia’s state-owned oil company is warning that the energy sector will take time to recover from the Iran war’s impact on supply as oil output was slashed due to the ongoing disruptions to shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.

Saudi Aramco CEO Amin Nasser said on an earnings call Monday that the global energy market has lost about 1 billion barrels of oil supply during the crisis, though efforts to reroute shipments to avoid using the Strait of Hormuz and releases from countries’ strategic petroleum reserves have eased some of the supply issues.

“The energy supply shock that began in the first quarter is the largest the world has ever experienced,” Nasser said.

He said that the world is now losing about 100 million barrels of oil supply per week as long as the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed to tanker traffic. If the disruption continues for several more weeks, Aramco thinks that oil markets may not normalize until 2027.

“Reopening routes is not the same as normalizing a market that has been deprived of about 1 billion barrels of oil,” Nasser said, adding that years of underinvestment compounded the strain caused by the conflict on global oil inventory.

“Recent events have clearly demonstrated the vital contribution of oil and gas to energy security and the global economy and are a stark reminder that reliable energy supply is critical,” he added.

The conflict prompted Aramco to ramp up the use of its pipeline that transits the Arabian Peninsula from east to west and negates the need for oil tankers to transit the Strait of Hormuz, through which about 20% of the world’s oil supply passed through before the war began.

“Our East-West pipeline, which reached its maximum capacity of 7 million barrels of oil per day, has proven itself to be a critical supply artery, helping to mitigate the impact of a global energy shock and providing relief to customers affected by shipping constraints in the Strait of Hormuz,” Nasser said on the call.

Of the 7 million barrels per day the pipeline handles, about 2 million go to oil refineries located on Saudi Arabia’s western coast, while the remaining 5 million barrels per day are available for exports.

Nasser said that Aramco is considering ways to expand its export capacity at Yanbu, the terminal on the Red Sea that serves as the pipeline’s destination.

Saudi Arabia cut oil output by 2 million barrels per day after Iran threatened shipping traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, which effectively closed the vital choke point.

Liverpool City Region has signed a new agreement with Hamburg to boost ties in areas including logistics, maritime trade and green technology.

The two port cities are well-known for their shared Beatles connections, with the band playing hundreds of gigs in the city in the early 1960s. A new drama based on the Beatles’ Hamburg days has already started production.

Now Mayor of the Liverpool City Region, Steve Rotheram, and Hamburg’s First Mayor, Dr Peter Tschentscher, have signed a Joint Declaration of Intent (JDI) to plan deeper academic, cultural and economic cooperation. It follows last year’s signing of the Kensington Treaty to strengthen British-German relations.

The cities will plan deeper academic, cultural and economic cooperation in areas from logistics and maritime transformation to digitalisation and climate adaptation, and will also plan further tourism and trade links.

Steve Rotheram, said: ” Liverpool and Hamburg are proud port regions with a shared maritime and cultural history and a shared determination to shape the future. This Joint Declaration of Intent turns our common heritage into practical collaboration that will improve the future of our citizens, businesses and the environment.

“Both regions know what it means to reinvent ourselves, moving from traditional industry to innovation-led growth. By working together on green shipping, digitalisation and artificial intelligence, we will exchange expertise, attract investment and support high-quality jobs on both sides of the North Sea.

“This post-Brexit agreement builds on the newly-ratified Kensington Treaty between our two nations by strengthening cooperation at a city region level to improve sustainability, innovation and mutual long-term prosperity.

“We’ve been developing our relationship with Hamburg for some years now and I’m thrilled we are adding a new chapter to this story and laying the foundations for an even stronger relationship in the years ahead.”

Hamburg’s First Mayor, Dr. Peter Tschentscher, said: “Hamburg and Liverpool are linked by a long maritime tradition that has shaped our economy, culture, and the mindset of our citizens. Both cities are diverse, outward-looking, and internationally connected. They honour their traditions while, as modern metropolises, simultaneously focusing on innovation and progress.

“With the Joint Declaration of Intent, we aim to provide our partnership with a framework featuring clear structures and defined areas of focus. These include cooperation and joint projects in the fields of green shipping, life sciences, artificial intelligence, and innovative urban development.”

Andrew Mitchell CMG, British Ambassador to Germany said: “The newly‑ratified Kensington Treaty sets an ambitious framework for closer UK–Germany cooperation – and the partnership between Hamburg and Liverpool is a great example of that cooperation being turned into practical action.

“This Joint Declaration of Intent builds on deep historic ties and channels them into collaboration on shared priorities: from maritime transformation and green shipping to digitalisation, AI, innovation and climate adaptation.

“My warm congratulations to Mayor Dr. Peter Tschentscher and Mayor Steve Rotheram on this important step, which strengthens links between our communities and supports long‑term prosperity on both sides of the North Sea.”

Monday Marks 100 Days Since Nancy’s Disappearance, Where Is She Now?

Published

on

Nancy Guthrie

TUCSON, Ariz. — As the search for Nancy Guthrie reaches the heartbreaking 100-day mark on Monday, investigators have made no public arrests and named no suspects in the suspected kidnapping of the 84-year-old mother of “Today” co-anchor Savannah Guthrie, leaving her family in prolonged anguish while pleading for the public’s help.

Nancy was taken from her Catalina Foothills home in the early morning hours of Feb. 1, 2026. Bloodstains confirmed to be hers were found inside and on the front porch, along with signs of a struggle. A doorbell camera captured a masked, gloved intruder tampering with the device around 1:47 a.m. Her pacemaker lost connection shortly afterward, and she left behind essential medications and her phone.

On Mother’s Day, Savannah Guthrie shared an emotional Instagram Reel featuring family photos and videos of her mother as a devoted parent and grandmother. “Mother, daughter, sister, Nonie — we miss you with every breath,” she wrote. “We will never stop looking for you. We will never be at peace until we find you.” She urged anyone with information to contact the FBI anonymously, noting the $1 million family reward remains active.

Medical fragility adds urgency

Nancy’s health conditions — including a pacemaker, high blood pressure, and mobility issues — have raised grave concerns. Experts warn that without her daily medications, she faces risks of cardiac events, blood clots, or other complications. Retired FBI profiler Jim Clemente noted blood spatter on the porch suggests she was alive and possibly resisting when taken.

A human bone discovered May 7 near the home briefly sparked hope before authorities confirmed it was prehistoric and unrelated. Mixed DNA samples from the scene are still under advanced FBI analysis.

No major breakthroughs reported

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has described the investigation as active and committed, with the FBI’s involvement and thousands of tips received. However, no significant new leads have been publicly disclosed in recent weeks. Some retired agents suggest the lack of updates may be strategic to protect the investigation.

Profiler opinions vary. Some believe the kidnapper may not be highly sophisticated, increasing chances of eventual identification through mistakes made at the scene. Others speculate Nancy could still be alive, drawing parallels to long-term abduction cases.

Advertisement

Family’s emotional toll

Savannah returned to the “Today” show in April after time away but has continued sharing public appeals. Her husband, Michael Feldman, posted his own Mother’s Day tribute, calling her “the strongest person I know.” The family has balanced private grief with relentless advocacy, emphasizing Nancy’s need for medication and her role as a beloved “Nonie.”

Broader context and public interest

The case has captivated national attention, sparking discussions about elder safety, home security, and media coverage of missing persons. Local leaders and some critics have questioned aspects of the investigation, but authorities maintain a steady focus. Elizabeth Smart has publicly offered hope, citing her own experience of prolonged captivity.

As Monday marks 100 days since Nancy’s disappearance, the family’s message remains unchanged: someone knows something. The $1 million reward and ongoing FBI tip line (1-800-CALL-FBI) continue as key tools in the search.

The investigation into Nancy Guthrie’s abduction remains open and active, with her loved ones refusing to lose hope despite the passage of time and medical uncertainties. For now, the case stands as a painful reminder of vulnerability — and the power of persistent public appeals in high-profile missing persons investigations.

Liquidia (LQDA) Stock Soars 25% on Explosive YUTREPIA Sales and Record Q1 Profit

Published

on

Buy or Sell Navitas Semiconductor Stock in 2026? Analysts Split

NEW YORK — Shares of Liquidia Corporation (NASDAQ: LQDA) surged more than 25% in morning trading Monday to $48.54 as investors cheered the biopharmaceutical company’s transformative first-quarter 2026 results, driven by the blockbuster commercial launch of its pulmonary hypertension drug YUTREPIA.

The dramatic gain reflects growing Wall Street confidence in Liquidia’s rapid transition from a development-stage company to a profitable commercial player in the $5+ billion inhaled treprostinil market. YUTREPIA, Liquidia’s innovative dry-powder formulation, has seen exceptionally strong early uptake since its 2025 launch.

Q1 2026 financial highlights

Liquidia reported first-quarter revenue of approximately $132.9 million, a massive increase from just $3.1 million in the prior-year period. Nearly all of that growth came from YUTREPIA net product sales of roughly $130 million. The company swung to a strong net profit of $52.9 million, or $0.52 per share, compared with a loss in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA reached $71.2 million.

Advertisement

Management highlighted more than 4,500 unique patient prescriptions and approximately 3,750 patients treated with YUTREPIA between launch and April 30, 2026. The company also recorded its third consecutive quarter of profitability.

YUTREPIA commercial momentum

YUTREPIA is an inhaled dry-powder formulation of treprostinil approved for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD). Its convenient, low-effort inhaler and dosing flexibility have driven rapid adoption among patients and physicians seeking alternatives to existing therapies.

Analysts note that Liquidia has successfully captured meaningful market share in a competitive space dominated by United Therapeutics. Strong payer coverage, physician enthusiasm, and patient preference for the dry-powder format have fueled the impressive launch trajectory.

Advertisement

Analyst reaction and raised expectations

Several firms have raised price targets and maintained Buy ratings following the earnings beat. The stock’s valuation, while elevated after the recent run, is supported by visible revenue growth, expanding margins, and a robust pipeline. Liquidia also benefits from intellectual property protections around its PRINT technology platform.

Monday’s surge came on heavy volume, with traders rotating aggressively into the name. The move extends a powerful upward trend that has seen the stock deliver extraordinary returns for investors who recognized its potential early in the YUTREPIA launch phase.

Company background and strategy

Advertisement

Liquidia has successfully evolved from a pure-play drug developer into a commercial-stage rare disease company. Its focus on improving delivery of proven molecules through innovative formulations has allowed faster regulatory paths and strong differentiation in the marketplace. Beyond YUTREPIA, the company maintains a pipeline targeting additional respiratory and vascular indications.

CEO Roger Jeffs and the leadership team have emphasized disciplined commercial execution, patient support programs, and strategic partnerships to maximize YUTREPIA’s potential while advancing the broader portfolio.

Risks and considerations

Despite the enthusiasm, Liquidia operates in a competitive therapeutic area with established players. Ongoing patent litigation and potential future competition remain important variables. Like many biotech stocks, LQDA can experience significant volatility tied to clinical, regulatory, or commercial developments.

Advertisement

Valuation metrics have expanded rapidly with the stock’s rise. Investors should weigh the strong growth narrative against execution risks and the possibility of profit-taking after such a sharp move.

Broader biotech and pulmonary hypertension context

Liquidia’s success highlights continued innovation in rare disease and specialty pharmaceutical markets. The pulmonary hypertension space, while relatively small, offers high unmet need and attractive pricing dynamics for differentiated therapies. Liquidia’s ability to gain traction quickly demonstrates the power of patient-centric innovation.

What’s next for Liquidia (Future Forecast)

Advertisement

Investors will watch closely for updates on YUTREPIA commercial metrics, additional pipeline progress, and any strategic moves such as partnerships or expanded indications. The company’s Q2 earnings in August will provide the next major catalyst.

Monday’s powerful move underscores how quickly investor sentiment can shift when a biotech company delivers clear commercial proof-of-concept in a high-value market. For Liquidia, the combination of strong sales, profitability, and pipeline potential has transformed it into one of 2026’s standout small-cap biotech stories.

As trading continues, all eyes remain on whether this momentum can be sustained or if the stock consolidates after its explosive run. For now, the market is rewarding Liquidia’s successful execution on its vision to revolutionize care for patients with challenging respiratory and vascular diseases.
