Meta bans TikTok ads, One UI 9 targets in-app ads, AMD's historical rating system

By PulseAugur Editorial · [4 sources] ·

Meta has banned ads from TikTok and its owner ByteDance, escalating a dispute between the two tech giants. Separately, a new feature in One UI 9 aims to block in-app advertisements, potentially making free apps less intrusive for users. In historical tech news, AMD's Performance Rating system was introduced 25 years ago to counter the 'megahertz myth'. Finally, a future job title of 'delivery drone air traffic controller' is highlighted, with one individual expressing early fascination with the technology. AI
