The scoop: Chinese self-driving cars have traveled 1.8 million miles of California roads, collecting detailed data with cameras and sensors. Experts compare the national security threat to that of TikTok, but US action can be described as lax at best 🧵

Elon Musk is planning to charge Twitter users $20 per month for that little blue check mark. Politicians and celebs will likely be able to foot the bill, but it's a high price for journalists whose verification can help combat the spread of disinformation.
