No, it doesn't, that is not at all what the court has said, it's just a clickbait title.
What they said is that a 1982 Canadian law about suing foreign states cannot be used retroactively for a 1960s case. Much less dramatic, I know.

I’ve been reading on an iPad mini for years, dark mode, and I have no complaints, never had any sleeping issues. For me the e-ink reader really shines at the beach, irreplaceable there.
Here's an AI bot's summary:
Cory Doctorow gave a talk about the concept of "ensh*ttification" - how internet platforms start out good, then abuse users to benefit businesses, then abuse businesses to benefit themselves, until they die.
He argues today's big tech firms like Facebook and Google have undergone ensh*ttification, withdrawing value from users and business partners to benefit shareholders.
Doctorow says ensh*ttification happens due to lack of competition, companies' ability to "twiddle the knobs" with no transparency, and laws that criminalize modifying platforms.
He proposes halting consolidation, limiting companies' twiddling abilities, and restoring the right to modify platforms through "adversarial interoperability."
This will help shift control of technology from giant companies to small ones, co-ops, nonprofits and user communities.
Tactics include blocking mergers, mandating open APIs, government procurement rules favoring interoperability, and rolling back laws against modifying platforms.
The goal is a "new good internet" that succeeds the old open internet and avoids the pitfalls of today's walled gardens. Doctorow urges spreading these ideas to seize opportunities in future crises.

Working as intended then.
Not funny :/
Oh, it’s a TLDR of the article, not my opinion.
The grocery stores record profits make it obvious they have more than enough room to absorb a lot of the upstream pressure for price increases. They don’t feel compelled to do so in any way though :/
True, except the rises so far have been much larger than inflation warrants, with the expectation for a correction at some point, which is what the article discusses.
Quoting the article: "...Although WIRED could initially replicate the troubling Bing result, it now appears to have been resolved...".
Most of the web-search-capable bots I use (fastgpt, bing chat, poe web-search) correctly refuse to quote the published LLM-hallucinated info. It can still be reproduced on perplexity ai.
This seems to be much less of an issue than recent publications make it out to be, mostly because all the companies behind those bots are aware and actively addressing it, I guess.
