🚀 U.S. Justice Department Advocates for Google Asset Divestiture in Antitrust Case

According to PANews, the U.S. Department of Justice has proposed at a Washington antitrust hearing that Google should be compelled to divest core assets, including its Chrome browser, to dismantle its monopoly in the online search sector. Prosecutors argue that Chrome serves as a crucial gateway for users to access search engines, and its separation could enable competitors to gain market data and enhance their services. The hearing is expected to last three weeks, with a final decision on the 'remedial measures' anticipated this summer.

🚀 Rabby Wallet Ends Support for Firefox Plugin Due to Compatibility Issues

According to Foresight News, Rabby Wallet has announced it will cease maintaining its plugin wallet for Firefox. The decision stems from Firefox's lack of comprehensive support for hardware wallets like Ledger, which has negatively impacted user experience. Additionally, the relatively small user base on Firefox has made maintenance costs disproportionately high compared to other platforms. Rabby Wallet recommends users switch to Chrome or Brave for continued use of the Rabby plugin.

🚀 Openclaw Founder Discusses Acquisition Offers and Open Source Commitment

Openclaw founder Peter Steinberger recently confirmed during an interview with Lex Fridman that the company has received acquisition offers from multiple firms. According to BlockBeats, Steinberger expressed disinterest in potential financing deals worth millions or billions, citing concerns over time consumption and conflicts of interest, such as prioritizing enterprise versions and altering open-source licenses, which could harm the community. He emphasized his desire for completely free open-source solutions without conditions, noting that relying on donations is unsustainable, as evidenced by popular projects like Tailwind undergoing layoffs.

Steinberger also revealed that Openclaw is currently operating at a loss, with monthly revenues ranging from $10,000 to $20,000, while subsidizing personally maintained dependent projects. Although companies like OpenAI provide some support, the situation remains unsustainable.

Regarding collaboration with large laboratories, Steinberger stated that the core condition is maintaining the project's open-source nature, similar to Chrome and Chromium. He stressed the importance of not entrusting the project entirely to a single company and highlighted the unique community atmosphere of ClawCon, reminiscent of the early internet enthusiasm. Steinberger aims to spread this spirit to more people, considering this year as the beginning of personal agency, with laboratory collaboration being the fastest way to achieve this. He also expressed interest in experiencing work within a large company, as he has never done so before.

🚀 Google Sets 2029 Deadline for Post-Quantum Cryptography Transition

Google has announced a 2029 deadline to transition its authentication services to post-quantum cryptography. According to NS3.AI, this move has intensified scrutiny on blockchains that continue to depend on elliptic-curve signatures. Android 17, Chrome, and Google Cloud have already implemented or support post-quantum protections. Ethereum has outlined an eight-year roadmap featuring weekly developer networks and four hard-fork milestones. In contrast, Bitcoin has yet to establish a coordinated migration plan.
