authoritarian lawmakers, aggressive AI scrapers, and, if you ask Elon Musk, Grokipedia too. But cofounder Jimmy Wales doesn't seem too worried, because he argues that Wikipedia is one of the few institutions left that still earns most people's trust. Our interview with him is a good exploration of why, including some frank discussion of bias, AI use, and why Wales felt the need to weigh in on the encyclopedia's Gaza genocide page.</p></div></td></tr></table><table class="divider_block block-2" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="pad" style="padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:10px;padding-right:10px;padding-top:20px"><div class="alignment" align="center"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" width="100%" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="divider_inner" style="font-size:1px;line-height:1px;border-top:1px solid #e9e9e9"><span style="word-break: break-word;"> </span></td></tr></table></div></td></tr></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table><table class="row row-4" align="center" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tbody><tr><td><table class="row-content stack" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0;color:#000;border-radius:0;width:500px;margin:0 auto" width="500"><tbody><tr><td class="column column-1" width="100%" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0;font-weight:400;text-align:left;vertical-align:top"><table class="heading_block block-1" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="pad" style="padding-left:10px;padding-right:10px;padding-top:10px;text-align:center;width:100%"><h1 style="margin:0;color:#000;direction:ltr;font-family:'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:26px;font-weight:700;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:1.2;text-align:left;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;mso-line-height-alt:31px"><span class="tinyMce-placeholder" style="word-break: break-word;

During that time, the encyclopedia has gone from a punchline about the unreliability of online information to the factual foundation of the web. The project’s status as a trusted source of facts has made it a target of authoritarian governments and powerful individuals, who are attempting to undermine the site and threaten the volunteer editors who maintain it.<br><br> Now Wikipedia’s cofounder Jimmy Wales has written a new book, <em>The Seven Rules of Trust: A Blueprint for Building Things That Last</em>. In it, Wales describes a global decline in people’s trust in government, media, and each other, instead looking to Wikipedia and other organizations for lessons about how trust can be maintained or recovered. Trust, he writes, is at its core an interpersonal assessment of someone’s reliability and is best thought of in personal terms, even at the scale of organizations. Transparency, reciprocity — you have to give trust to get trust — and a common purpose are other ingredients that he attributes to Wikipedia’s success. </p></div></td></tr></table><table class="button_block block-5" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="pad"><div class="alignment" align="center"><a href="https://link.theverge.com/click/43099847.11905/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudGhldmVyZ2UuY29tL3RlY2gvODQ2MTg0L2ppbW15LXdhbGVzLXRydXN0cy10aGUtcHJvY2Vzcz91ZWlkPWJjNjIwNzJjNzlhYzdiZTk5MDQyMGUzMzM1ZDBjOTUyJmJ4aWQ9NjkyNzgzMGQ1MmY5NzEzNzIzMDZjMThl/6927830d52f971372306c18eB6d80f5a9" target="_blank" style="color:#ffffff;text-decoration:none;"> <span class="button" style="background-color: #5200ff; mso-shading: transparent; border-bottom: 0px solid transparent; border-left: 0px solid transparent; border-radius: 4px; border-right: 0px solid transparent; border-top: 0px solid transparent; color: #ffffff; display: inline-block; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 400; mso-border-alt: none; padding-bottom: 5px; padding-top: 5px; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; text-align: center; width: auto; word-break: keep-all; letter-spacing: normal;"><span style="word-break: break-word; line-height: 30px;"><strong>Read the whole story</strong></span></span> </a></div></td></tr></table><table class="divider_block block-6" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="pad" style="padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:10px;padding-right:10px;padding-top:20px"><div class="alignment" align="center"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" width="100%" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="divider_inner" style="font-size:1px;line-height:1px;border-top:1px solid #e9e9e9"><span style="word-break: break-word;"> </span></td></tr></table></div></td></tr></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table><table class="row row-6" align="center" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tbody><tr><td><table class="row-content stack" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0;color:#000;border-radius:0;width:500px;margin:0 auto" width="500"><tbody><tr><td class="column column-1" width="100%" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0;font-weight:400;text-align:left;vertical-align:top"><table class="divider_block block-1" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"> <tr><td class="pad" style="padding-bottom:10px;padding-left:10px;padding-top:10px"><div class="alignment" align="left"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" width="15%" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="divider_inner" style="font-size:1px;line-height:1px;border-top:5px solid #5200ff"><span style="word-break: break-word;"> </span></td></tr></table></div></td></tr></table><table class="heading_block block-2" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="pad" style="padding-left:10px;padding-right:10px;text-align:center;width:100%"><h1 style="margin:0;color:#000;direction:ltr;font-family:'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:26px;font-weight:700;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:1.2;text-align:left;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;mso-line-height-alt:31px">OnePlus 15R review: unbeatable battery life, beatable value<br> </h1></td></tr></table><table class="paragraph_block block-3" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0;word-break:break-word"><tr><td class="pad"><div style="color:#000;direction:ltr;font-family:'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0;line-height:1.2;text-align:left;mso-line-height-alt:17px"><p style="margin:0">By Allison Johnson</p></div></td></tr></table><table class="paragraph_block block-4" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0;word-break:break-word"><tr><td class="pad"><div style="color:#000;direction:ltr;font-family:'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:17px;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0;line-height:1.5;text-align:left;mso-line-height-alt:26px"><p style="margin:0"> The OnePlus 15R’s battery life is exceptional.

You may as well go for the fully flagship 15 and make do with charging your phone every couple of days rather than every three or four, or pick up the Pixel 9A for a more reliable camera and a much more reasonable $499 price.</p></div></td></tr> </table><table class="button_block block-5" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="pad"><div class="alignment" align="center"><a href="https://link.theverge.com/click/43099847.11905/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudGhldmVyZ2UuY29tL3RlY2gvODQ2MDEyL29uZXBsdXMtMTVyLXJldmlldy1iYXR0ZXJ5LWNhbWVyYS1wZXJmb3JtYW5jZT91ZWlkPWJjNjIwNzJjNzlhYzdiZTk5MDQyMGUzMzM1ZDBjOTUyJmJ4aWQ9NjkyNzgzMGQ1MmY5NzEzNzIzMDZjMThl/6927830d52f971372306c18eB6f441c4b" target="_blank" style="color:#ffffff;text-decoration:none;"> <span class="button" style="background-color: #5200ff; mso-shading: transparent; border-bottom: 0px solid transparent; border-left: 0px solid transparent; border-radius: 4px; border-right: 0px solid transparent; border-top: 0px solid transparent; color: #ffffff; display: inline-block; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 400; mso-border-alt: none; padding-bottom: 5px; padding-top: 5px; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; text-align: center; width: auto; word-break: keep-all; letter-spacing: normal;"><span style="word-break: break-word; line-height: 30px;"><strong>Read the whole story</strong></span></span> </a></div></td></tr></table><table class="divider_block block-6" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="pad" style="padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:10px;padding-right:10px;padding-top:20px"><div class="alignment" align="center"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" width="100%" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="divider_inner" style="font-size:1px;line-height:1px;border-top:1px solid #e9e9e9"><span style="word-break: break-word;"> </span></td></tr></table></div></td></tr></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table><table class="row row-7" align="center" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0;background-size:auto"><tbody><tr><td><table class="row-content stack" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0;background-size:auto;color:#000;border-radius:0;width:500px;margin:0 auto" width="500"><tbody><tr><td class="column column-1" width="100%" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0;font-weight:400;text-align:left;padding-top:5px;vertical-align:top"><table class="heading_block block-1" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="pad" style="padding-bottom:10px;padding-left:10px;padding-right:10px;text-align:center;width:100%"><h1 style="margin:0;color:#000;direction:ltr;font-family:'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:26px;font-weight:700;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:1.2;text-align:left;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;mso-line-height-alt:31px"> <span class="tinyMce-placeholder" style="word-break: break-word;"><span style="word-break: break-word; color: #5200ff;">/</span> Comments section</span></h1></td></tr></table><table class="html_block block-2" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="pad"><div style="font-family:'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;text-align:center" align="center"><div class="quote" style="background:#f8f5ff;padding:15px 20px 0px;margin: 0 10px 0;color:#353535;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;text-align:left;font-weight:700;"> WesSouza<span>:</span> </div></div></td></tr></table> <table class="html_block block-3" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="pad"><div style="font-family:'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;text-align:center" align="center"><div class="quote" style="background: #f8f5ff;color:#000000;padding:0px 20px 15px;margin: 0 10px;font-size:17px;line-height:1.5;text-align:left;"> “This is ridiculous. <br /><br /> This comment is sponsored by PCBWay, your one-stop shop for high-quality PCB fabrication and assembly.

Now, as the largest AI companies race to build more data centers in a frenzied pursuit of profitability, space is looking less like a pet project and more like a commercial opportunity. Earthlings are catching on to the fact that power-hungry data centers take up land and water, while providing few jobs, too much pollution, and rising electricity costs.<br><br> Hence the idea to put the data centers in orbit around the Earth, not on the Earth. Space-based data centers — in the form of satellites with solar panels — are Big Tech’s latest fad and Silicon Valley’s newest investable venture. In space, they theorize, the sun’s unlimited rays could provide endless amounts of energy to power your latest AI-generated Sora video.

Warning

Almost all the messages that arrive here are garbage! Resist the urge to click on any unexpected or questionable links.

It may happen that e-mail will claim to come from liamon.com, especially from some administrative role or process. These are certainly garbage. There are no accounts to expire. There are no passwords to leak. There aren't administrators sending messages to liamon.com addresses. These are certainly phishing attempts.

Absolutely ignore those links!
