Meta said Wednesday it has removed roughly 63,000 accounts engaged in financial sextorion scams, a growing category of online crime in which scammers use fake accounts to dupe victims into sharing nude photos, then extort them for money.

The number of satellites in low-Earth orbit (LEO) has ballooned in recent years, and the story is the same as in all popular destinations: traffic is a nightmare.
Things have become so congested that the cumulative volume of spacecraft and debris in LEO is unsustainable, the European Space Agency’s (ESA) 2024 Space Environment Report determined. Without the widespread adoption of debris mitigation tactics, the report warns that the future of space travel could be in jeopardy.
