In Berlin, Chancellor Angela Merkel sparked health concerns after shaking uncontrollably during a ceremony with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Facebook faced immediate regulatory backlash from Maxine Waters following the reveal of its Libra cryptocurrency, while Apple CEO Tim Cook used a Stanford commencement speech to distance the iPhone maker from Silicon Valley privacy scandals. Meanwhile, Senator Josh Hawley introduced legislation to strip legal protections from platforms that fail to prove political neutrality in their moderation algorithms.
