This morning, we’re thinking of the anxious generation that’s had the misfortune to grow up alongside social media, as the EU investigates Meta’s alleged lack of child protection concerns. X is also under the microscope in Europe, by the way. Plus, we’ve got Netflix’s foray into ads (sigh), cybersecurity news, a new way to bank online, and sodium-ion powered batteries.

AWS gets new steward into genAI era: CEO Adam Selipsky is stepping down from his role at cloud leader Amazon Web Services, to be replaced by Matt Garman. This is a critical juncture in the $100 billion business’ life.

Bring on the ads: Netflix is launching its own ad tech platform, going against online ad industry heavyweights like Google, Amazon and Comcast. This also means Netflix will likely call off its deal with Microsoft to develop its ad tech, as the streaming company takes full control of its advertising future.
