Anthropic showed the breadth of its outage, but not its denominator

Microsoft’s $329.1bn lease stack is capacity that has not started

Britain’s competition regulator is investigating whether Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscribers saw a cheaper continuity option clearly enough before renewal. The annual difference was £25, but the economic question is larger than the price: when a supplier adds Copilot…

AirTrunk has closed US$2.325 billion of green financing for JHB2 in Johor Bahru, turning a loan that was being marketed in May into committed project funding. The 30-institution syndicate is substantial, but it proves neither that the scalable 270MW campus is complete nor that…
