🚨 A US court has ruled that when an AI agent shops or browses a website for you, it is you, the user, doing the accessing in law, not the AI company. The AI company cannot be held liable for it. A significant early signal on how the law will treat AI agents.

The case is Amazon v Perplexity AI, decided by the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit on 4 August 2026. Amazon tried to block Perplexity's AI browsing agent from operating on https://t.co/4zi1kbGjm6. It lost. Here is why, and why it matters even from Kenya. 🧵

For Eliud Kipchoge, the math of success is brutally simple: a massive network cannot solve a real crisis. Two or three honest friends will. He challenges us to strip away surface-level connections and build a tight circle of people who aren't afraid to tell you the hard truth.

Dear Law Students,
This Judgment concerns ambitious three parcels of land. Ambitious because they seem to have acquired several owners, each bearing a certificate of title from the same Ministry of Lands.

A must-read, authored by Justice Oscar Angote.

Kenyans are calling out the Marriott Group of Hotels for constructing a hotel in the middle of the Maasai Mara–Serengeti ecosystem, saying it is disrupting the wildebeest migration , a major tourist attraction for both Kenya and Tanzania!

The Court of Appeals today has delivered a landmark judgment that clarifies the law of insolvency, tracing and liquidation.

Cytonn High Yield Solutions (CHYS) and Cytonn Project Notes (CPN) have been confirmed in liquidation after losing all 21 appeals.

Over KSh 11 billion from 3,000+ investors traced into their SPVs across key projects. The Official Receiver is now in charge of the liquidation process for investors to recoup their monies.

The Judgement is posted below, for those interested in reading it.

They have gone from blocking the paths of the animals at Maasai Mara, to building concrete walls to stop them. Impunity!

This is a terrible sight to behold. Why allow people to build at the very site of crossing? Wildlife - the great migration is what sustains the Reserve. This issue has come in the media before but apparently nothing was ever done about it. REALLY why this?

Camp Mulla: The Rise and Fall of Kenya's Hip Hop Sensation

If you were a fan of Kenyan hip hop in the early 2010s, you probably remember Camp Mulla, the group that took the scene by storm with their catchy tunes and fresh style. They were hailed as the future of African music, and even got nominated for a BET Award in 2012. But what happened to them? Why did they break up? And where are they now?

Camp Mulla was formed in 2009 by four teenagers: Karun, Taio Tripper, Kus Ma and Shappa Man. They met at school and started making music together, influenced by American rap and R&B. They soon gained popularity online and on radio with songs like "Party Don't Stop", "Hold It Down" and "Feel No Pain". They also collaborated with other artists like Wizkid, M.I and Collo.

However, things started to go downhill in 2013, when Karun announced that she was leaving the group to pursue a solo career and study music in the US. The rest of the members tried to keep the group alive, but they failed to recapture the magic that made them famous. They also faced some legal issues with their former manager, who claimed that they owed him money. Eventually, they decided to go their separate ways and focus on their individual projects.

Some people might say that Camp Mulla was overrated, and that they did not have a lasting impact on the Kenyan or African music industry. They might argue that they were just a fad, and that they did not have enough originality or substance to sustain their success. They might also point out that they did not win any major awards or break any records.

However, others might disagree and say that Camp Mulla was a pioneer and a trailblazer, and that they opened doors for other young and talented artists to emerge. They might argue that they brought a new sound and vibe to the local scene, and that they inspired many fans and musicians with their creativity and charisma. They might also point out that they represented Kenya on an international platform, and that they made history as the first East African group to be nominated for a BET Award.

As for where they are now, here's a quick update on each member:

- Karun: She is now based in Los Angeles, where she is pursuing her solo career as a singer-songwriter. She has released two albums: Sun & Moon (2014) and Glow Up (2020). She has also collaborated with artists like Blinky Bill, Mr Eazi and Diplo.

- Taio Tripper: He is now known as Tito Summa, and he is still making music as a rapper and producer. He has released several singles and EPs, such as "Mungu Halali", "Mama" and "Summa Vibes". He has also collaborated with artists like Kagwe Mungai, Fena Gitu and King Kaka.

- Kus Ma: He is now known as Kus The Artist (KTA), and he is also still making music as a rapper and producer. He has released several singles and EPs, such as "Juice", "Kus Kus" and "The Wave". He has also collaborated with artists like Octopizzo, Khaligraph Jones and Nyashinski.

- Shappa Man: He is now known as Shappaman, and he is also still making music as a rapper and singer. He has released several singles and EPs, such as "Nairobi Yangu", "Bad Manners" and "Shappaville". He has also collaborated with artists like Nasty C, Victoria Kimani and Naiboi.

As for who's rolling in the money, it's hard to say for sure, since there are no official figures on their net worth or income. However, based on their social media presence and lifestyle, it seems that Karun is doing quite well for herself in the US, while the others are still hustling in Kenya.

But money is not everything, right? What matters more is that they are all still passionate about their music and their fans.
