Hi John,

The European Commission, the executive arm of the EU, has proposed new laws under which technology companies can be fined up to 10% of their global turnover and also face orders to split up.

Apple has likely launched more of its operating systems too for other devices, but an annoying bug in Big Sur with TextEdit is seemingly fixed, while iOS 14.2 brings ProRAW photography to iPhone 12 models, Fitness+ and more!
Australian telco Pivotel and content and connectivity provider SES have agreed to construct a new satellite ground station at Pivotel's Dubbo teleport. The ground station will enable the delivery of enhanced telecommunication services to regional communities. Global shipments of PCs in the final quarter of 2020 are expected to hit 143 million units, a rise of 35% year-on-year, the technology analyst firm Canalys says, adding that this would mean a total of 458 million units for the year which is an annual rise of 17%.
An app developed by IBM and the COVID-19 Critical Care Consortium (COVID Critical) is designed to help intensive care clinicians access the most up-to-date medical information, customised to the profiles of their own patients.
Tasmanian communications provider TasmaNet has completed the rollout of dedicated NBN fibre connections to 59 public schools around the State.
Some serious news on effective Covid-19 vaccinations helped push up Australian executive employment opportunities this month by 13%, according to Grant Montgomery, managing director of executive search firm, E.L Consult.
Skilled in Adobe's Creative Suite across digital and print media, Chris Tysoe not only counts iTWire as a very satisfied customer, but talks to us about graphic design's past, present and future.
And of course, there's plenty more today, so for all the news, please visit www.itwire.com .

Have a great day!
