After discovering an outage in its computerized Notice to Air Missions (NOTAM) systems—which helps guide air traffic and provide crucial instructions to pilots—overnight, the FAA ordered all flights within, into, or out of the U.S. across the country to be grounded until 9 a.m. ET. But even though flights have resumed, the ongoing congestion at airports across the U.S. is yet to be unclogged. Amid the still-unfolding chaos that the system failure caused, more than 1,300 flights were canceled and more than 10,000 delayed, according to flight-tracking website FlightAware....

“I have not opened my mouth once, It has taken a lot for me to get where I am and I am not thinking about throwing it all away for nothing.” said Fabregas. Fabregas scored 11 goals and assisted 11 more in 30 leagues appearances en route to the La Liga title. With Barcelona recently signing Neymar, Fabregas was linked with a move away from the Catalans after a bit-part role last season....

This shadow version of the popular social networking platform—not visible on the surface level—can be used to investigate “social properties” of the companies suite of applications by forcing bots to fight and intentionally attempt to break systems or violate guidelines, researchers said this week. In a new paper, the team outlined its Web-Enabled Simulation (WES), which is known internally as “WW” and being built to take advantage of real website infrastructure....

The data includes phone numbers, email addresses, full names, birthdates, location and other Facebook biography details. However, a Facebook spokesman said in a statement to Newsweek that this is old data connected to a problem that was addressed in 2019. At the time, Facebook removed people’s ability to directly find others using their phone numbers on both Facebook and Instagram because the function could be exploited to imitate Facebook and provide a phone number order to find out which user it belonged to....

TV news reporter Alison Parker and cameraman Adam Ward were killed by a former co-worker while reporting for Roanoke, Virginia’s WDBJ-TV in 2015. Video footage of the shooting has repeatedly resurfaced on Facebook and Instagram, violating the company’s own terms of service in hosting videos that glorify violence, Parker’s father, Andy Parker said Tuesday. Parker’s family is asking the Federal Trade Commission to take action against Facebook for failing to remove the footage showing her death, despite assurances from top executives that it will be removed....

The posts, which included memes and comments, some of which were of a sexually graphic nature, were only removed after BBC News alerted Facebook to the groups in which they were hosted. The posts include claims that Harris was not a US citizen, a lie that has peddled by right-wingers consistently throughout the election campaign, as well as calls for Harris to be deported to India, the birthplace of her mother, and comments about her not being “Black enough” for the Democratic Party....

To be clear, this doesn’t mean that the name of the social media platform Facebook is changing, rather it’s the company at large. According to Zuckerberg, the company’s name was too closely associated with just the Facebook social media platform, which is no longer representative of everything that the company does. Rather, the name is meant to be evocative of the metaverse, where users will be able to connect in similar ways to those depicted in Ready Player One....

The lawsuit was filed against Meta on Thursday with the U.K.’s Competition Appeal Tribunal in London, TechCrunch reported. The lawsuit claims Facebook, which was recently renamed Meta, should pay its 44 million British users’ compensation for taking all their personal and private data between 2015 and 2019. Facebook has yet to respond to the lawsuit. The claim is that due to Facebook’s dominance in the social media sector, the people had no other viable social media platform they could use instead....

The Polish driver has since competed in WRC, GT3 and LMP1, but Formula 1 has always been his ultimate goal. He even had a test in a Formula E car with the intent of competing in the all-electric series, although this failed to amount to more. After being the Williams’ test driver in 2018, he steps up to become a full-time driver this year and here are five reasons why Kubica will have success at the team....

He was earlier rumoured to make a loan switch to Renault, but Ricciardo’s shock move to the French team closed out that option for him. He is now linked with a similar loan move to McLaren for 2019, with Lance Stroll looking set to join Force India. Ocon spoke to Motorsport.com regarding this during the Hungarian Grand Prix weekend. “The bosses [at Mercedes] have plans for me that are ’not yet’,” said Ocon....

Force India has been bought by Lawrence Stroll. Well, in theory, yes. Stroll has emerged as the biggest investor from a consortium and is the driving force behind the deal - perhaps buoyed by the idea of having his son Lance drive for his own team. But there are others who have been instrumental in the deal actually taking place - and they’re all heavyweights in their own way....

Reports suggest that the Scuderia may make its first driver change in four years by ousting an aging Raikkonen for Sauber rookie Charles Leclerc. The young Monegasque driver has impressed in his first season at the pinnacle of motorsport. Leclerc averages over half a second quicker than his experienced teammate Marcus Ericsson in qualifying and has shown excellent race craft on Sundays. The duels between the young driver and two-time world champion Fernando Alonso have been particularly good....

The German Grand Prix has shuffled between two venues, Nürburgring in Rhineland-Palatinate, Hockenheimring in Baden-Württemberg, and included a one-off event at AVUS in Berlin. Although the seven-time world champion has raced at the Nürburgring as well as Hockenheimring, the German has triumphed only at German Grands Prix held at the latter. Formula One would be revisiting Germany after a one-year interval due to disagreement about commercial terms between circuit owners and the F1 management....

Albon started the 2019 season as a rookie on Red Bull’s sister team Toro Rosso (now AlphaTauri) before being called up to replace an underperforming Pierre Gasly after the summer break. The Thai-British driver repaid the faith put in him by Christian Horner and Dr. Helmut Marko with some impressive performances initially. Albon was inside the top six in eight of the nine races he entered with Red Bull that year....

Just when you thought the 2019 Azerbaijan Grand Prix unfurled yet another impressive performance from the young Ferrari driver, who, despite crashing during the qualifying battle made most of his chances, set the fastest-lap and scored a fighting fifth, in comes some verdict on the man by Villeneuve. Apparently, the Canadian driver feels that Charles Leclerc isn’t exactly a great piece of news for the ‘Prancing Horse’ for the very simple reason that the side was not ready to manage ‘competition’ between Sebastian Vettel and the younger talent driving alongside him....

The history-making Silver Arrows locked out the front row in qualifying and Bottas - who was cruelly denied a win in Baku last year after driving over debris late on - converted pole position to move one point clear of Hamilton in the drivers’ standings. Sebastian Vettel took the final step on the podium as Charles Leclerc, who led the race for a long period, paid the price for waiting too long to pit and finished behind Max Verstappen in fifth – an extra point for setting the fastest lap providing minimal consolation for the Scuderia youngster....

The three-time Formula One world champion has been closing in on Senna’s tally of 65 career poles, arriving in the principality one short of the iconic Brazilian. Moving level with him would see Hamilton only have Michael Schumacher in front of him on 68, and while the Briton is keen to be on top ahead of Sunday’s race he is not placing too much importance on the milestone. “I love to watch the old on-board footage of Senna racing in Monaco,” he told the official F1 website....

Klopp had defended his stance in the run-up to the game, stating that the club’s playing style was not the deterrent factor. Instead, the manager elaborated on the past two displays stating, “We didn’t play that well but we could have won games. We could have won at United, we could have beaten Swansea. It’s not about the things you can measure. Football is about decision-making. You have to make the right decision at the right moment, and obviously, we didn’t do that often enough....
