Business headlines. Us Investment Firm Elliott Advisors has walked away from making a takeover bid for currys after being rejected by the retailers board in its own words multiple times. It had initially proposed an offer that valued the electricals chain at £700 million, and later raised it to 757 million.

After brilliantly deploying a propaganda and spying operation inside the u. S. , they must be pleasantly surprised to see bipartisan support to help them protect it. Yes. Just like every other social media platform, there is misinformation and privacy concerns. Its important that we dont treat tiktok differently than other platforms.
