These are the Daily Tech Headlines for Monday, October 13th, 2025. I'm Jen Kutter. The Dutch government took control of Nexperia, a subsidiary of China's Wingtech Technology based in the Netherlands. Nixperia produces chips primarily used in automotive and consumer electronics. On Sunday, the Dutch Minister of Economic affairs revealed the Goods Availability act was invoked against the company back in September of this year in order to prevent a situation in which the goods produced by Nexperia would become unavailable in an emergency, and losing these capabilities could pose a risk to Dutch and European economic security. CNBC received a comment from a Nexperia spokesperson that it complies with all existing laws and regulations, export controls and sanction regimes. Also on Sunday, Taiwan's Economy Ministry said no significant impact is expected from China's increased export controls on rare earth material, as the elements covered by the ban are not the same ones used in Taiwan's semiconductor processes. The particular rare earth elements required are sourced primarily from Europe, Japan and the United States. The ministry did note the ban could affect global supply chains for electric vehicles and drones. OpenAI changed its policy for Sora 2's video app regarding the generation of videos containing recently deceased public figures due to growing backlash related to the app's surging popularity, an OpenAI spokeswoman said. We believe that public figures and their families should ultimately have control over how their likeness is used. Family members of Malcolm X, Robin Williams, Martin Luther King Jr. And the rights holder of Bob Ross's work and likeness went viral over the weekend with their thoughts. The company's definition of recently deceased has not yet been made public. Apple's Clips app, geared towards editing videos for social media and originally released in 2017, will no longer be updated or downloadable from the App Store. Existing users will continue to have access to clips on iOS 26 and iPadOS 26 or earlier. The Apple support page about the discontinued app suggests saving and exporting videos to an alternate location and using video options like iMovie or third party apps like InShot, VN Video Editor or GoPro. Quick Google added access to NanoBanana to Google Lens and searches AI mode no longer limiting the image editing and generating tool to within the Gemini app. Nanobanana is now available in Google Lens and AI mode on Android in the United States for accounts opted in to the AI Mode search lab. All generated images will include a visible watermark and Synth ID digital watermark to show they are AI generated. The US Federal Communications Commission cracked down on prohibited Chinese electronics found on major US Retail sites. The removed items were on a list of banned equipment or unauthorized by the fcc, including items such as home security cameras and smartwatches from Huawei, Hangzhou, Hikvision and Dahua Technology company. FCC Chair Brendan Carr said the products could enable China to surveil Americans, disrupt communication networks and otherwise threaten US national security. Audio equipment company Bose will discontinue support for cloud based features on SoundTouch products on February 18, 2026.

Lifestyle 650 SoundTouch 130 and SoundTouch 300 soundbar will function with HDMI and optical inputs and Bluetooth, though the SoundTouch streaming and app control will no longer function. SoundTouch products initially launched back in 2013 and Qantas Airways said customer data stolen in July through a third party platform has been released online. The company is working with Australian authorities and security experts with an ongoing injunction in place to prevent the stolen data from being accessed, viewed, released, used, transmitted or published by anyone.
