 Military judge suppresses Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s FBI confession in 9/11 case A military judge has excluded a confession that alleged Sept. 11 attacks mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed gave to FBI agents nearly 20 years ago, ruling that the statements were not made voluntarily. The decision is a setback for the U.S. government's long-running effort to prosecute Mohammed, who is accused of helping develop the plot to hijack planes and crash them into the World Trade Center and Pentagon. Mohammed remains detained at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, alongside other defendants awaiting trial. Lt. Col. Michael Schrama, the judge overseeing the case, scheduled a June 2028 trial for Mohammed and three other defendants earlier this week. In an order issued Friday that has not been made public, Schrama barred prosecutors from using statements Mohammed made during four days of FBI questioning at Guantanamo in January 2007.

ARIZONA SUES TEMU OVER ALLEGED DECEPTIVE AND UNFAIR BUSINESS PRACTICES. (PHOTO).


 Arizona sues Temu over alleged deceptive and unfair business practices

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes has filed a lawsuit against Temu, the Chinese-based online shopping platform, alleging violations of the Arizona Consumer Fraud Act. The suit claims Temu engaged in unlawful data collection, privacy violations, and counterfeiting of some of Arizona’s most recognizable brands.

According to Mayes, Temu’s app poses significant privacy risks to Arizonans, including minors. She stated that the platform can allegedly infect users’ devices with malware to collect private information while evading detection. The complaint, filed in Maricopa County Superior Court, asserts that Temu lures customers with low prices but secretly collects sensitive data such as precise location, microphone and camera access, and private activity on other apps, all without consent. The lawsuit also claims the app can modify its own code after download, potentially allowing it to exploit personal data or control the device.

Temu, modeled after the Chinese app Pinduoduo, reportedly ships tens of millions of orders to the U.S. annually, with more than 80,000 China-based sellers fulfilling those orders. Mayes also cited that, as a Chinese-owned company, Temu is subject to Chinese laws that could mandate cooperation with government intelligence efforts.

Beyond privacy concerns, the lawsuit accuses Temu of deceptive and unfair business practices, including advertising products that differ from what customers receive, faking reviews, misusing consumer payment information, infringing on intellectual property belonging to Arizona brands and universities, charging for undelivered goods, running misleading referral programs, and using forced labor in violation of U.S. trade laws.

Attorney General Mayes emphasized that the goal of the lawsuit is to protect Arizona residents from deceptive practices, stop unauthorized data collection, and hold Temu accountable under state law.
