Meta gives up control of Chinese AI startup Manus after eight months
Chinese AI company Manus has laid out its plans to operate as an independent company following the reversal of its acquisition by Meta.

The US social media company agreed to buy Manus last year but Chinese regulators quickly opened an investigation into the deal, as they were concerned that it violated Chinese export controls. In April, China's National Development and Reform Commission blocked the purchase.

Manus will now revert to being an independent company and to meet with regulatory requirements must delete some user data collected while it was part of Meta, it said Tuesday.

The failure of the deal illustrates the problems that US and Chinese companies are having as they attempt to build a hold on the AI market.

While regulatory authorities in China don't want Manus under US ownership, US authorities are equally suspicious of China's role in AI development. The US administration fired a warning shot this March by unveiling a new cybersecuri

According to Piriform, CCleaner 7 improves compatibility with newer PCs. The tool now fully supports Arm64 devices, which should ensure noticeably better performance on newer Windows systems.

A better approach to uninstalling apps CCleaner's uninstaller feature now uses a new engine that removes apps more reliably than the built-in Windows uninstaller. Multiple apps can be uninstalled in one go without repeatedly clicking on confirmations. Orphaned files and remnants are also deleted automatically.
