Cette extension des pouvoirs de l’Anssi qui inquiète des députés

Vers une « taxe streaming » pour financer la filière musicale ?

Taxe ou contribution, peu importe le mot, mais l'idée de puiser un petit quelque chose sur les abonnements au streaming musical fait son chemin. Le rapport sur le financement de la filière musicale en France, réalisé par le sénateur Julien Bargeton, a été remis fin avril à Rima Abdul Malak, la ministre de la Culture. Une des recommandations du rapport est la création d'une contribution de 1,75 % sur les revenus du streaming (payant et gratuit financé par la publicité). L'argent généré par cette manne, environ 20 millions d'euros par an, abonderait les caisses du Centre national de la musique (CNM), une structure créée en janvier 2020 pour rassembler et organiser l'ensemble de la filière. Son aide a d'ailleurs été [...]

Gen Z’s Digital Dilemma: Does the Never Ending Stream of Trends Point to Something More Sinister?

Gen Z, the generation born between the mid-1990s and early 2010s, has been credited with inventing a plethora of new aesthetics and subcultures.

The collective internet seems to be dismissing these trends as mere internet fads, but the truth is that they represent something deeper — a severe sense of disconnection and alienation that many young people feel. In a world where social media dominates, Gen Z is constantly bombarded with images of perfection and success, making it difficult to find a sense of belonging amidst all the perfectly curated ‘good side’ of everyone around them. They are the first [...]

What’s coming next in the smart home?

Consumers are still not sold on the smart home, with their biggest concerns being privacy and fragmentation. That’s according to Raza Shah, technology strategy and design leader at Jabil, a contract manufacturer that has manufactured many smart home products.
