Much like the trailers that have been released so far, it’s equal parts comedy and action, which is one of the reasons why the first Deadpool movie was very well received.

Online political ads have come under the microscope following the 2016 U.S. presidential election which is said to have been influenced by a massive Russian misinformation campaign on social networking websites such as Facebook. As Facebook and other online networks take additional steps to ensure that something like this doesn’t happen again, states like New York are going one step further and now making it mandatory for online political ads for New York elections to disclose who paid for them.
Gov. Cuomo of New York signed the bill into law today mandating that online political ads in New York elections disclose who is footing the bill. The new law is a response to Russia’s misinformation campaign to influence the U.S. presidential election.
Under this law, ads on platforms including Facebook, Google, and Twitter will have to include a line which indicates clearly who paid for the ads to be run. It’s the same way that TV and radio ads have long disclosed their source of funding as well. Not only that, websites will also be barred from selling political ads to foreign entities.
This New York law also makes it mandatory for digital ad buyers to register as independent expenditure committees and online ads by independent spenders will now have to include a line which says that the ad’s content was not approved by any candidate. The law covers online ads related to state and local elections, it even includes promoted tweets.

It has been a long wait for Oreo for many Android users as the latest iteration of Google’s mobile platform is yet to be released for their devices. The Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge are both compatible with Oreo but the update hasn’t arrived as yet. However, it appears that this might change soon, as the Oreo update has now inched closer to its release for the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge.
Both Samsung flagships from 2016 were recently certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance running Android 8.0 Oreo less than two weeks ago. These certifications are normally an indication that an update’s release isn’t that far off.
Those certifications were for unlocked variants and now all U.S. carrier variants of the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge have received their Wi-Fi certifications as well. They include models for AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, and T-Mobile.
It may not be long before Samsung releases Oreo for these devices as the company is now readying the Oreo update for some older devices. It has already started rolling out Oreo for the Galaxy A5 (2017) and will eventually expand the update for that device to other markets as well.
Oreo will be the last major platform upgrade for the Galaxy S7 as it has been almost two years since the device was originally released and Android devices are typically not supported for major platform updates after two years.
