Netanyahu, who has spent the past 12 years in office and is now standing trial on corruption charges, announced the offer on Facebook just ahead of a deadline to form a government, in the wake of Israel’s fourth inconclusive election in two years. The election in March left Netanyahu unable to muster a coalition with a majority. Even with Bennett’s small, pro-settlement party, he would be two seats short of a majority government. According to Netanyahu, Bennett had demanded to serve for one year in a rotating premiership while negotiating with a Netanyahu-led bloc and an opposition bloc, playing each against the other. “It’s not exactly a routine demand from the person who heads a party with seven seats,” Netanyahu said. Response: “I have just heard Netanyahu’s proposal, and I have to say it is unclear to me,” Bennett said. “I did not demand the premiership from Netanyahu, but rather I asked for a government. And that, to my regret, he does not have.” Context: Offering this deal to “an old and bitter rival” is surprising, our Jerusalem bureau chief, Isabel Kershner, said. “It’s definitely a sign of desperation. But again, a lot of people doubt his sincerity — and Bennett is apparently among them.” A computer server rack in a disused NATO bunker discovered by German police in 2019 and used to host sites on the dark net.Rhineland-Palatinate Police Press Office/EPA, via Shutterstock German authorities break up child sex abuse site German prosecutors announced yesterday they had [broken up a site](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRic1q_P4QHAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjEvMDUvMDMvd29ybGQvZXVyb3BlL2dlcm1hbnktY2hpbGQtcG9ybm9ncmFwaHktc2l0ZS1idXN0ZWQuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01MSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9tYmVfMjAyMTA1MDQmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MzAxNzYmbmw9bW9ybmluZy1icmllZmluZyUzQS1ldXJvcGUtZWRpdGlvbiZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9NTcxNTImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmCMv9WQYFjqBntSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) used to share material showing child sexual abuse that had an international following of more than 400,000 members, describing it as “one of the largest child pornography sites operating on the dark net.” Since at least June 2019, the site, named Boystown, included forums in which members from around the globe exchanged images and videos showing children, including toddlers, being sexually abused. The site also had chat rooms in which members could connect with one another in multiple languages. In a statement, German federal prosecutors announced the arrests in mid-April of three German men who managed the site and a fourth who had posted thousands of images to it.

But in recent years, many artists have been releasing remixes of the same song. The Florida rapper SpotemGottem, for instance, first released the song “Beat Box” more than a year ago. A remix, “Beat Box 2,” arrived in December, followed in short succession by “Beat Box 3,” “Beat Box 4” and, last month, “Beat Box 5.” Combined, listeners have streamed the songs hundreds of millions of times. The strategy is to “extract maximum value from a single song,” Jon Caramanica [writes in The Times.](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRic1q_P4QEAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjEvMDQvMjgvYXJ0cy9tdXNpYy9zb25ncy1yZW1peGVzLWxpbC1uYXMteC1zcG90ZW1nb3R0ZW0uaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01MSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9tYmVfMjAyMTA1MDQmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MzAxNzYmbmw9bW9ybmluZy1icmllZmluZyUzQS1ldXJvcGUtZWRpdGlvbiZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9NTcxNTImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmCMv9WQYFjqBntSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) He calls it “an elegant promotional solution: If people decide they want to listen to your song, simply give them more of it.” Lil Nas X similarly kept his breakout song, “Old Town Road,” at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 for a [record-breaking 19 weeks](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRic1q_P4QJAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3LmJpbGxib2FyZC5jb20vYXJ0aWNsZXMvbmV3cy85NTU0MDA2L2hvdy1hY3RzLWZvbGxvdy0xMC13ZWVrLWhvdC0xMDAtbnVtYmVyLW9uZXMvP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUxJmVtYz1lZGl0X21iZV8yMDIxMDUwNCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0zMDE3NiZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJTNBLWV1cm9wZS1lZGl0aW9uJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD01NzE1MiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYIy_1ZBgWOoGe1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) in 2019, partly through remixes, which has helped him sustain stardom despite not having yet released a full-length album. Often, these remixes can be substantial, adding a new layer to the song. But sometimes they’re a slightly altered version that is more obviously a ploy to game streams. “For younger artists, especially those who catch fire on TikTok, lengthening the life of a song,” Caramanica writes, “is crucial to setting a foundation for a chance at something beyond a one-viral-smash career.” PLAY, WATCH, EAT What to Cook Beatriz Da Costa for The New York Times.
