O Departamento de Comércio dos Estados Unidos disse que emitirá uma ordem nesta sexta-feira (18) que impedirá as pessoas no país de baixarem o aplicativo de mensagens chinês WeChat e o TikTok a partir de 20 de setembro.

Autoridades do departamento disseram que a proibição de novos downloads do TikTok nos EUA ainda pode ser revogada pelo presidente Donald Trump antes de entrar em vigor na noite de domingo, enquanto a proprietária do TikTok, ByteDance, corre para fechar um acordo sobre o destino de suas operações nos EUA.

A ByteDance tem conversado com a Oracle e outros interessados para criar uma nova empresa, a TikTok Global, que visa atender a preocupações dos Estados Unidos sobre a segurança dos dados de seus usuários. A ByteDance ainda precisa da aprovação de Trump para evitar uma proibição dos EUA.

Autoridades do departamento disseram que não vão barrar transações técnicas adicionais do TikTok até 12 de novembro, o que dá à empresa mais tempo para chegar a um acordo para suas operações nos EUA. “O TikTok permanecerá intacto até 12 de novembro”, disse o secretário de Comércio Wilbur Ross à Fox Business.

O departamento disse que as medidas “protegerão os usuários nos Estados Unidos, eliminando o acesso a esses aplicativos e reduzindo significativamente sua funcionalidade”.

A ordem irá remover os dois aplicativos da App Store da Apple e da Google Play Store da Alphabet nos Estados Unidos e proibirá outros de oferecer os aplicativos em qualquer plataforma “que possa ser acessada dentro dos EUA”, disse uma autoridade do Departamento de Comércio à Reuters.

O pedido não impedirá transações de outras empresas com a Tencent, proprietária do WeChat, incluindo suas operações de jogos online, e não proibirá a Apple, Google ou outras plataformas de oferecer o TikTok e o WeChat fora dos Estados Unidos.

Ross disse em declaração por escrito “nós tomamos medidas significativas para combater a coleta maliciosa de dados pessoais de cidadãos norte-americanos pela China, enquanto promovemos nossos valores nacionais, as normas baseadas em regras democráticas e a aplicação agressiva das leis e regulamentos dos EUA”.

Duke Kahanamoku reflects on surfing, Olympics, and old Hawaii in 1966 interview

Duke Kahanamoku is the most influential surfer of all time and is often hailed as the father of modern surfing. There is nearly no one questioning these titles. Recently, Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) Hawaii unveiled a never-before-seen interview with the legendary surfer and Olympic swimmer. In the 1966 episode of Pau Hana Years, a seminal Hawaii television program that aired on KHET-TV (now PBS Hawaii) for 16 years, running from 1966 until 1982, Bob Barker chats with Duke Kahanamoku, then 76. The conversation drifts from royal ancestry to Olympic lanes, from Hollywood sets to a surfboard shaped by hand, tracing the outline of a life that helped define modern surfing and Hawaii's public image in the 20th century. And if you know little about the man who dreamed of getting surfing into the Olympic Games, this is a precious piece of history. A name with history, worn casually The interview starts with Kahanamoku explaining that "Duke" is not a title but his giv...

The hydrodynamics of surfboard fins

Have you ever wondered why a surfboard fin looks like that? It is a single or a set of fixed blades or keels located under a board, near the tail, often no bigger than a hand. Yet that small surface is where much of the surfboard's behavior takes place. Speed, hold, looseness, and the feeling of control all trace back to how water moves around fins. The physics of surfboard fins falls under hydrodynamics, the study of how fluids behave in motion. So, according to science, they feature a shape designed to turn flowing water into several forces. Let's take a look at what's at stake when fins and water interact. Lift and the feeling of control One of the key variables in hydrodynamic terms involving surfboard fins is lift. When a surfer leans into a turn, the board tilts and the fins meet the water at an angle. The angle is enough to create a pressure difference between the two sides of the fin. Water speeds up on one side and slows on the other. The result is a sidewa...

How paddleboarding transforms your body and mind

Adventure is on our doorstep. With so many different bodies of water available to paddleboarders, from city canals to coastal routes, we can find adventure in places much closer to home than people might initially expect. According to the Canal and River Trust, 50 percent of people in England and Wales live within just eight kilometers of a canal or river, and eight million people live less than one kilometer away. I had lived within just a few kilometers of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal for years and never really explored it before stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) came into my life . The challenge created both a new perspective and a deeper love for where I lived and the areas which I passed through. On my coast-to-coast journey, I slept in my own bed for two nights as the route passed through my then hometown of Skipton, yet I felt I was on a grand journey of discovery. We are braver, stronger, and more resilient than we think. SUP not only helps us feel more connected to our va...
