Render raised $20 million in its Series A round, led by Addition, General Catalyst, and South Park Commons.

The startup offers a Zero DevOPS public cloud alternative to Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Users need zero knowledge of servers and infrastructure to install the platform. Instead, they use its intuitive hosting platform. These traits make it easy to set up and use while also offering the flexibility and power of competitors like AWS.

“AWS and other large providers were built for the 2000s”, co-founder and CEO Anurag Goel told TechCrunch. "The big three offerings need expensive and scarce DevOps engineering resources to manage. We offer simplicity and a world-class developer experience at a fraction of the cost.”

Render plans to use the funding to triple its staff by the end of 2022. Plus, it hopes to expand to ten new regions, as a minimum, with its sights on APAC and EMEA.

Telegram’s Durov announces changes to combat illegal activity on the app

CBA.ca

Telegram CEO Pavel Durov announced plans to improve the platform's content moderation by removing features misused for illegal activities. This comes after his recent investigation in France, where he was questioned about crimes like fraud and sharing illicit content on Telegram. Durov stressed that while most users are not involved in criminal activity, a small fraction has damaged the platform's reputation.

Telegram has already taken steps by disabling new media uploads to a blogging tool exploited by anonymous users and removing a People Nearby feature due to problems with bots and scammers. Durov committed to further improving moderation, though he did not detail specific plans. These changes are Telegram's first response since Durov's arrest in France.

The investigation has raised questions about tech platforms' responsibility in controlling content and the legal risks for their leaders. Durov's lawyer argued that it's unfair to hold him accountable for others' actions on the platform, but experts like Katie Harbath caution that fixing content moderation will likely require more than minor adjustments.

First global AI treaty opens for signing, prioritizes human rights
