27.04.2021 - Argentinian buys Google’s domain name for £2

      An Argentinian bought Google's domain for 270 pesos (around 2 pounds).  Nicolas Kuroña, a resident of Buenos Aires got informed by his friends that the google services in Argentina were down. Immediately after receiving this information, he rushed to his PC and bought Google's domain for Argentina. He got to keep it for a few hours before Google retrieved its domain.     I wanted to write about this because it's funny how a company worth $420 Billion got "robbed" of its internet domain and funnily enough it shouldn't have been up for sale on the market as Google's license wasn't due to expire until July.

22.04.2021 - Black man shot and killed by sheriff’s deputy in North Carolina

  A sheriff’s deputy in North Carolina has shot and killed a black man while serving a search warrant.  Pasquotank county sheriff Tommy Wooten  said the deputy shot Andrew Brown at about 8:30 on Wednesday morning. A n eyewitness said that Brown was shot while trying to drive away, and that deputies fired at him multiple times. The car with Brown's dead body drove out of his yard and hit a tree. They killed a man and justified it by the growing tension on the police caused by Derek Chauvin's trial and  Ma’Khia Bryant's killing. I feel like the police in the US aren't going to be an institution soon. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/apr/22/black-man-shot-and-killed-by-sheriffs-deputy-in-north-carolina

13.04.2021 - Biden to withdraw US troops from Afghanistan by September 11

     Joe Biden stated that he will withdraw all the remaining US troops and forces from  Afghanistan  by September 11. We're expecting a formal announcement on Wednesday 14/04. Currently, there are 2 500 US soldiers snd 7 000 units as a part of the NATO coalition inside of the borders of the country waiting for withdrawal.      It's great that these special forces are returning home to their families, but who knows what is going to happen after Afghanistan is "coalition free" and back on its own. They'll be free to do whatever they please inside the country's borders. Rebellion is very probable so is propaganda against the US and NATO.  LINK srr i forgot again: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/apr/13/biden-withdraw-troops-afghanistan-september-11
