TikTok will no longer be available for download in Hong Kong after China placed sweeping national security laws on the territory. Will the US follow suit? Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says the government is “looking at” banning Chinese social media apps. China’s accused of trying to persuade high-profile individuals to back Huawei’s integration into the UK’s 5G network, and one of Silicon Valleys more secretive firms, Palantir, confidentially files paperwork to go public. Also NASA’s Hubble telescope finds a new galaxy far, far, away, Earth’s magnetic field can change ten times quicker than we first thought, and why is Arctic Siberia heating up faster than the rest of the world? And it’s the stuff of nightmares for some… a photo of a human-sized bat is freaking out the internet.
