This precarious position of net neutrality in one of the largest supposed free markets in the world highlights the vulnerabilities of centralized internet infrastructure, where corporate interests and regulatory scrutiny exercise outsized control on how a user accesses the internet.

Cutting the offices’ regional directors will require a vote by the SEC’s current three-person commission, made up of two Republicans — Uyeda and Commissioner Hester Peirce — and one Democrat, Commissioner Caroline Crenshaw.

The statement came in response to a X post from blockchain analytics firm Lookonchain wh,ich estimated that Bybit has acquired 446,870 Ether, worth around $1.23 billion from loans, whale deposits and purchases — making up nearly 88% of the $1.4 billion stolen from North Korean stated-back hacker organization Lazarus Group on Feb. 21.

While parts of the crypto community speculated that the announcement could result from a hack, sources close to Trump’s family confirmed to Cointelegraph that the project is legitimate and linked to his non-fungible token (NFT) ventures.

Recently, platforms have been improving at using decentralized tools that empower community members to explore other platforms and decentralized applications with their interoperable data and assets, tackling the “lonely island” problem. Blockchain operators are working toward giving users the controls to reshape and reimagine their digital experience in their vision, a refreshing take. It certainly beats corporate giants, algorithms and advertisers making crucial decisions on behalf of their users.

Just look at X (formerly Twitter). It was acquired, changed its name to X, enforced massive algorithm changes — which pleased some and alienated others — and some people who had spent years building audiences walked away frustrated. The users never had control. They were exposed to the harsh reality that algorithms can change, accounts can be banned, and platforms can go bust or be acquired overnight. Your follower count suddenly became meaningless. These are (still) Web2’s inherent risks.

Kuhnert is right, by the way. It is up to Web3 builders, investors, users and those curious enough to experiment with the technology to think more about what control means to them. There was ownership in Web2 but no control, so it was hollow. There were accounts, posts, followers, books and songs, and it really felt like it belonged to us, but the platforms always controlled it — we didn’t. This lack of user control was the biggest failure of Web2, and the thought of Web3 repeating it is dreadful.

Court documents allege that Iza employed off-duty LASD deputies as personal enforcers to target business rivals and perceived threats. Saavedra, leveraging his credentials as a deputy and a task force officer with the US Marshals Service, illegally accessed sensitive law enforcement databases, fabricated search warrant affidavits, and misused his badge to aid Iza’s vendettas.

In one instance, Iza sought to steal a laptop he believed held more than $100 million in cryptocurrency.

Prosecutors allege Saavedra secured a search warrant in January 2022 under false pretenses, claiming the target was involved in a firearms investigation. Saavedra provided the victim’s location to Iza, who sent armed individuals to break into the victim’s home.

The attempt failed when the victim fired a warning shot, after which Iza reportedly sent the victim a video of the botched robbery.

In August 2021, LASD deputies allegedly held a victim at gunpoint at Iza’s residence, forcing a $25,000 bank transfer. In October 2021, Iza personally coerced another victim into transferring $127,000 while holding them at gunpoint.

Saavedra also operated a private security firm, Saavedra & Associates LLC, which employed off-duty deputies. Iza reportedly paid $100,000 monthly between 2021 and 2024 for round-the-clock security.

Beyond the alleged extortion racket, Iza’s operations extended to financial fraud. Between 2020 and 2022, he is accused of defrauding Meta Platforms Inc., stealing over $37 million by accessing business accounts and associated credit lines.

Both Iza and Saavedra also admitted to federal tax crimes. Iza allegedly evaded $6.7 million in taxes for 2021, while Saavedra failed to report $373,146 in income.
