India withdraws plan to pre-install Sanchar Saathi cyber safety app on smartphones
December 6, 2025, 12:18 AM EST. India has withdrawn a government order that would have required smartphone makers to pre-load the state-run Sanchar Saathi cyber safety app on new devices within 90 days, a move critics said risked privacy and surveillance. Officials argued the app would help verify handset authenticity, but experts warned it could undermine user rights. Major manufacturers like Apple and Samsung reportedly resisted the directive after concerns about consultation and privacy norms. The industry backlash followed a rapid rise in downloads and reported frauds, though the government said the app's acceptance had grown. Cybersecurity advocates welcomed the reversal and called for the formal legal order to be published for transparency.

DHL Supply Chain Deploys Tesla Semi Pilot in US Fleet
December 6, 2025, 12:08 AM EST. DHL Supply Chain, part of DHL Group, is integrating the Tesla Semi into its US fleet after an early 2017 order of ten units. The first pre-production Semi will operate from Central California, joining about 150 existing battery-electric Class 8 trucks. On a typical daily route of roughly 160 kilometres, the truck is charged about once weekly and can travel up to 800 kilometres when fully loaded. In testing, it averaged 1.72 kWh per mile (34 metric tons GCW over a 390-mile haul), or about 1.07 kWh per kilometre. DHL plans expansion in 2026 once Tesla begins series production, as part of its decarbonization goals. Quotes from DHL's Jim Monkmeyer and Tesla's Dan Priestley emphasize partnership and ongoing product refinement ahead of broader markets. Tesla has indicated the Semi will enter series production next year.
