It is 2025. Forty years ago Back to the Future was released where Marty McFly time travelled back to 1955.

The Data Protection Commission (DPC) has launched High Court proceedings against Twitter over concerns about how the personal data of millions of European users of X, as the social network is now called, is being processed.
