The company behind a search for pilot Amelia Earhart's possible crash site in the Pacific said a sonar image believed to resemble her plane turned out to be the sea floor's normal shapes. Marine robotics firm Deep Sea Vision said earlier this month on its social media accounts that imagery from an underwater drone deployed during the expedition turned out to show a "natural rock formation." The company, based in Charleston, South Carolina, did not immediately respond to a request for more information about its conclusion. Deep Sea Vision's Instagram page also featured a post this month of a branded T-shirt with the sonar image that states: "We find rocks." Romeo told CNN that the company hopes to return to the area to continue the search for Earhart's last location.

Tech billionaire Elon Musk, the owner of social media platform X, criticized proposed legislation in Australia that aims to ban social media for children under 16. The legislation, which was introduced in Parliament by Australia’s center-left government on Thursday, is among the world’s toughest on social media. Other countries have tried to impose limits on social media for children, including the United States which requires technology companies to obtain parental consent to collect data from children under 13. This is not the first time Musk has been publicly critical of the Australian government over tech regulation. At the time, Albanese called Musk an “arrogant billionaire who thinks he is above the law.”In September, Musk called the Australian government “fascists” over plans to crack down on misinformation online.
