Shifting to a quieter but technically interesting story, Canva has published details on how it manages session revocations at scale using Amazon S three. When you log out of Canva across devices, the challenge of invalidating millions of active sessions instantly is genuinely hard, and their approach offers a practical look at how large consumer platforms balance speed, cost, and security in infrastructure most users never think about.

And in the ongoing saga around Truth Social, a business law blog has posted a followup examining the legal and corporate mechanics behind the platform's structure. The piece digs into questions of fiduciary duty and shareholder obligations that have been swirling around the company, a reminder that the most consequential tech stories are often less about the product and more about the paperwork underneath it.

Keep surfing. Tech Beat out.
