Manus is separating from Meta after Chinese regulators ordered Meta to unwind its roughly $2 billion acquisition of the AI agent startup. Manus will delete data created by some users on or after Dec. 29, 2025, unless they back it up by 7:59 p.m. EDT on Aug. 22, with restorations starting at 8 p.m. EDT on Aug. 24. Users affected lose access during the transition and then can restore their Manus accounts, while Manus says it will not charge them during the backup period.
Anthropic said its new Claude models will embed invisible watermarks in text and C2PA-style digital signatures in supported image/vector files, including outputs from the Claude API and partners’ cloud tools. The plan applies to Claude models launched in the EU on or after Aug. 2, 2026, to meet EU AI Act Article 50 transparency requirements. It means copy-paste may preserve the mark, but edits and real development workflows (like paraphrasing, translation, and code changes through PRs) can weaken or remove detectability.
Apple is developing an iOS feature intended to verify when iPhone photos were taken using an iPhone camera. The iOS 27 beta 5 includes code references to an "Apple Reference Image" system that can embed provenance metadata at capture. If released, the feature will be off by default and can be enabled in Settings > Camera > Reference Image > Reference Mode, changing how users can validate photo origin and resist deepfake claims.
A security researcher described the “Pass-ta-key” attack method for passkeys, but the report said the underlying behavior is not actually new to passkey systems. The post’s key claim was that it can obtain all passkeys stored in the Google Password Manager app on Windows when the machine is infected with malware. As a result, readers were urged to separate passkeys being protected by the TPM from the reality that compromised machines can still let attackers extract what the app accesses.
The page titled “Supernova” provides a link to a discussion about keeping your data in Claude and Codex. No specific number, date, or price is mentioned in the article text provided. This changes nothing substantive about the underlying products, since it only points to a discussion page.
Anysite.io launched as a B2B data layer inside AI agents where users ask for company and people lists by geo, industry, and size. It is available today. It changes outbound data collection by letting teams get enriched lists through an agent using MCP or a REST API without writing queries or maintaining scrapers.
