2,000 euros fine for the minor’s parents

by

The Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD) has imposed the first sanction in Spain for the creation and dissemination of false images generated with artificial intelligence. The parents of a minor have been fined 2,000 euros, reduced to 1,200 for prompt payment, after a case that has set a precedent in the protection of minors’ data in Europe. What has happened. A minor used the ClothOff app to create a fake image of a naked high school classmate. The AI ​​tool takes the victim’s face and superimposes it on an unclothed body, taking into account physical characteristics such as complexion or skin tone. The image was later spread through social networks and messaging groups. The origin of the case. Although the public resolution does not identify the parties involved, the AEPD has confirmed that it is one of the cases that occurred in AlmendralejoBadajoz, in September 2023. Then, it came to light that at least 20 minors had been victims of similar schemes that circulated on the municipality’s cell phones. The images even reached portals such as OnlyFans and pornographic pages, according to the resolution. Why it is important. This is the first time that a data protection authority in the European Union sanctions by spreading a deepfake. The AEPD opened the file ex officio on September 20, 2023, just two days after the case became public, and was able to learn the identity of those responsible thanks to the collaboration with the Prosecutor’s Office. The regulator has acted on the basis that a person’s image is personal data that has reinforced protection when it comes to minors. The debate on the sanction. The amount of the fine has generated some debate. Jorge García Herrero, lawyer and data protection officer, account to El País that “very few risks related to AI cause as much social alarm as the creation of non-consensual sexual deepfakes of minors” and questions whether the sanction is ‘not very exemplary’. On the other hand, the jurist Borja Adsuara, account to the media that this is “a crime against privacy, which goes through criminal proceedings,” and wonders what sense it makes to impose an administrative fine when the case has already been judicially sentenced. The parallel path. This administrative procedure of the AEPD is independent of the criminal process that has already been initiated against those responsible, who were between 12 and 14 years old at the time of the events. In the judicial process, a year of supervised release was imposed on 15 minors for manipulating images of classmates. According to Miriam Al Adib, mother of one of the victims, “there was an exemplary sentence according to which the children are on probation for a year and have to take a training course.” And now what. It is expected that the AEPD will publish more similar fines related to the events in Almendralejo in the coming months, given that there were at least two dozen victims. The resolution exempts the creators of ClothOff from liability, an application designed specifically to generate images of naked women without their consent and which is currently closed. Its creators face a judicial process in the United States. Al Adib warns that these cases represent “a pandemic of tremendous violence” that requires coordinated political strategies and effective protection protocols for victims.

Brandon Halstead, a young kitchen assistant at the British pub and restaurant chain Wetherspoon’s, used his employee discount card on a family meal for seven people. The discount was 20% so was saved about 19.17 pounds in the account (about 22 euros at the exchange rate). Without knowing it, the employee had begun his worst work nightmare. Misuse of the discount card. As and how he collected the british newspaper MirrorBrandon Halstead used his employee discount code on a meal with seven people, including himself, during a day off at one of Wetherspoon’s locations. Unknowingly, I was violating the internal policy that limits the discount to groups of four people or less. A detail that Brandon himself admitted he was unaware of when the company began an internal investigation. Although the employee acknowledged his ignorance of the rule and showed his regret, the company accused him of “dishonesty and abuse” of the discount program, and subjected him to a disciplinary hearing. for serious misconduct. This improper use, although not in bad faith, led to a strict disciplinary sanction from the restaurant chain. Undue access put the finishing touch. During the investigation into the use of the discounts, it was discovered that Brandon’s mother had access to the Wetherspoon’s app to organize work schedules and public transport trips for her son, who has a diagnosis of autism. The company interpreted this access as a violation of its data security policy, which further aggravated the sanctions, to the point of affecting Brandon’s salary, in addition to generating what the DailyMail described as “significant stress and anxiety.” Faced with this situation, Brandon put pressure on the employee, aggravated by his autism condition, the young man requested medical leave for mental health reasons derived from the labor conflict. Given the company’s refusal to meet with them to find a solution that would put an end to that tense environmentBrandon’s mother filed a lawsuit arguing that the company failed to make “reasonable accommodations” to address Brandon’s disability. Justice is clear: there was no bad faith. A local employment tribunal rejected the disability harassment claim, but considered disproportionate the application of a “strict zero tolerance policy” to a person with autism “who was unaware of the rule and did not act in bad faith in applying it.” Labor Judge Murdoch noted that “in Brandon’s case there was no dishonesty test. Brandon immediately admitted to violating the discount policy rules because he was unaware of them. A typical characteristic of autism is a strong desire to comply with the rules. “A person without autism could have known the rules of the discount policy and fraudulently violated them, or could have lied when asked whether he had violated them,” Judge Murdoch stressed. Adaptation of your job. Regarding access to schedule data by the mother, the judge criticizes the company for not having minimally adapted the position to Brandon’s needs. “We consider that the application of this standard procedure places Brandon at a substantial disadvantage compared to a person without autism. Therefore, the court ruled that Wetherspoon’s should compensate Brandon £25,412, equivalent to approximately €28,900, for failing to make the necessary adjustments to avoid the situation of stress and anxiety to your employee. For its part, the company refused to offer comments to the Mirrorclaiming that “The individual remains employed by Wetherspoon and we do not comment on employment matters involving current employees. It should be noted that the employees’ harassment complaint was unsuccessful.” In Xataka | 55,245 euros for eating a sandwich and a beer: Mercadona must compensate an employee for unfair dismissal Image | Unsplash (Cova Software)

The patch to avoid another massive blackout is going to cost us 731 million euros. Iberdrola has already begun to collect it

by

The blackout on April 28 did not come free, and we consumers are going to pay for it. Iberdrola has confirmed that the extra cost caused by the “reinforced mode” that was activated after the massive blackout. And everything indicates that the rest of the electric companies will follow in their footsteps. what has happened. They tell it in The World. Until now, the impact of the blackout on the bill had been limited because the CNMC intervened so that the electricity companies could not modify the price for customers who have contracted fixed rates. FACUA also issued a statement warning that rates could not be raised if it did not appear in the contract. The blackout was more than six months ago, more than enough time for many free market contracts to have been renewed. This has given Iberdrola the opportunity to introduce clauses that allow them to pass the cost on to customers. Reinforced mode After the blackout, the so-called “reinforced mode” was activated. This adjustment involves intervening in the market to incorporate more conventional energy (gas, hydroelectric and nuclear) and limiting the entry of renewables with the aim of avoiding voltage failures. And of course, these energies are more expensive, in addition to requiring more auxiliary services to stabilize the network. The problem is that this It started as a patch after the blackout, but it has become the new normal which remains half a year later. The cost. It covers from the blackout until September and amounts to 210 million euros distributed between Spain and Portugal. Of this sum, Spain assumes the majority, with 180 million euros. Iberdrola regrets that the change in the system by Red Eléctrica is entailing an extra cost that “affects our results” and they hope to transfer 70% of this amount to their clients before the end of the year. Not just Iberdrola. Nothing prevents the rest of the electricity marketers from following in Iberdrola’s footsteps. According to El Mundo, the total cost of the reinforced mode in these six months amounts to 731 million euros and it looks like it will remain active for longer, so this amount will increase. The CNMC warns that any change in contract prices must be communicated transparently. From one pocket to another. In the Iberian Peninsula there are five nuclear power plants, 1,300 hydroelectric plants and some 200 gas plants. These conventional (non-renewable) energy plants are providing more energy as long as the boosted mode remains active and they are receiving more income for it. What is striking is that they mostly belong to private companies such as Iberdrola, Naturgy either Endesawho are the ones who will end up increasing the price of the invoice.

It is the key to having a profit of 2,540 million euros

by

The Irish airline has spent 2025 full of disputes with the Government and consumer associations. However, despite all these disagreements, the bold Michael O’Leary has managed to make Ryanair its model low cost remains extremely profitable. With a combination of an increase in the price of its tickets and an increase in the number of passengers, the company has ended the first fiscal semester painting its income statement green in a turbulent economic environment. Tail wind between so much turbulence. According to a statement published by the Irish company, between April and September 2025, Ryanair obtained a net profit of 2,540 million euros, which represents an increase of 42% compared to the 1,790 million obtained in the same period of the previous year. The airline’s total revenue grew by 13%, reaching €9.82 billion, thanks to increased prices and greater passenger traffic. Despite cuts in places offered at provincial airports on account of his raffles with Aena, The Irish company sold 16% more tickets, maintaining its capacity to attract more travelers in those airports in which it still operates. In total, the passenger traffic increased by 3%, reaching 119 million seats, a record figure for the company in this period. Rates through the roof. The 13% increase in the rates It is attributed, among other factors, to a favorable Easter that coincided with the start of the fiscal year for Ryanair, helping to recover the 7% drop in prices that was recorded in the second quarter of last year. In fact, the revenue per passenger grew 9% in the first semester. The increase in passengers together with the increase in fares has caused the income account to increase during the first six months of the year, a determining factor in the final balance. The secret: cost reduction. The increase in taxes and the price of fuel had a moderate impact on operating costs, which rose 4% in total to 6,960 million, which represents barely 1% per passenger, reflecting “strong control” of expenses by the company. O’Leary attributed a good part of this increase in operating costs to the increase in air traffic control fees, which are estimated at 14%. Much of this adjustment in costs derives from the supply of fuel, which the company has already secured 85% of its consumption estimate at a price of 76 dollars per barrel, while it has already advanced a supply of 80% of its demand for next year at a price of 67 dollars per barrel, thus taking advantage of the current low crude oil price. On the other hand, ancillary income, which is the most controversial among Ryanair passengers, which includes services such as priority boarding and on-board consumption, increased by 6%, totaling 2,910 million euros. These services account for almost 25% of the total billing. Only fly to profitable airports. Ryanair has also put its cards on the table for the second half of the fiscal year, and is clear that it is going to focus on “regions and airports that reduce taxes on aviation”, in clear reference to its withdrawal from provincial airports from Spain. On the other side of the board, countries such as Slovakia, Italy, Sweden, Albania or Morocco will monopolize the seats that are withdrawn from countries such as Germany, Austria or Spain, which have increased their airport taxes in 2025 and send a clear message in a political key: “We are concerned that Ursula von der Leyen (and her new Commission) have done nothing in the last 14 months to improve European competitiveness.” In Xataka | Spain and Ryanair are in a legal battle over the charge for hand luggage.

Toyota was determined to make hydrogen the perfect alternative to the electric car. Hyundai has just invested 563,800,000 euros

by

Time passes and the hydrogen car continues to be the great promise of clean mobility. The problem is that, little by little, time passes and hydrogen seems to be at the same point: challenges that seem impossible to solve and the eternal promise of revolutionizing transportation. Along the way, a good handful of companies said they were joining the hydrogen wave. Toyota has been one of those that has bet the most but, in the midst of a decline, it has been Hyundai that takes a new step. Reconversion. Hyundai has confirmed which has already laid the first stone of its new fuel cell and electrolyzer production plant in Ulsan (South Korea). The company has invested 930 billion won. That is, 563.8 million euros to convert the space and give it a new industrial use. According to the company, starting in 2027 they will be able to manufacture 30,000 fuel cell units per year in a space that extends across 43,000 m2. The intention is to produce systems for hydrogen-powered passenger cars but also for heavy transport services. a bet. Hyundai’s commitment to hydrogen is not new. The company has on the market the Nexusone of the few hydrogen cars that can be purchased and that has no competition since the Toyota Miraithe other great hydrogen car, is a sedan with a totally different approach. At the end of last year, Hyundai also presented Initiumthe preview of what should be a new hydrogen car that will arrive in 2025. However, the company has not launched the new model on the market. The Nexo has not been the first car powered by a Hyundai fuel cell but, for now, it is the last despite the fact that in 2021 they announced that we would have the entire range on the street with hydrogen versions in 2028. The promise. For years now, hydrogen has been proposed as the great alternative to the electric car. Although, really, it is an electric car. In its operation, a fuel cell car is a vehicle that carries out the electrolysis process inside to generate electricity that is stored in the batteries. In this process, the car does not generate CO2 and only expels water vapor through the exhaust pipe. The great advantage is that its carbon emissions are non-existent while it recharges the tanks in a few minutes to travel hundreds and hundreds of kilometers. The problems. There are many and they are difficult to remedy. When it comes to bringing hydrogen to a street car, the technical difficulties are enormous. First, because hydrogen occupies a large volume for the energy it can later generate. That’s why the Toyota Mirai is, almost everything, huge tanks. The latter is solved by turning the hydrogen into a liquid state but requires keeping it at -30ºC. It is a solution that has been designed to be used as fuel in a combustion engine and to remember the sensations of a combustion engine but generates very polluting particles such as NOx. That is, hydrogen requires huge tanks or a good amount of energy to keep it at a very low temperature. When this is achieved, it requires a complex system to carry out electrolysis or burn it in the engine itself (which generates very polluting particles). And all this without counting the complexity of producing and transporting it to the service station on duty. Non-viable. What happens at this point? That hydrogen is, at the moment, very expensive. As expensive as in Germany the cost of filling the tank was as expensive as filling it with diesel. It does not seem so strange that service stations are being dismantled in Germany and that although Stellantis offered to convert electric vans to hydrogen to gain autonomy, has ended up abandoning his plans. For now, on the way BMW too says it is developing hydrogen cars. Renault says to do the same. And Toyota continues investigating with burn hydrogen in combustion engines while turning his back on his Toyota Mirai in the United States where he faces a class action lawsuit from owners who they feel cheated. a light. In addition to light transportation, Hyundai says it wants to focus fuel cell production on heavy transportation. The company has its hopes that this type of transportation can find a true use for hydrogen. Heavy transport can find some advantages over electric transport. To charge an electric truck in a short time, enormous infrastructure is needed with chargers as fast and powerful as those from BYD. If hydrogen poles are created in dry ports or large distribution centers, it could make sense with less dispersed and therefore less costly distribution. Also the cost of filling the truck with huge tanks is lower because in percentage terms it would not eat up as much space as in a car. And, at the same time, recharging would be faster for less clean transportation than purely electric but much cleaner than current diesel engines.

171 million euros later, Metro de Madrid wants to reopen line 7B. The big question is whether the tenth time will be the charm.

by

Line 7B of the Madrid Metro will fully reopen this same month of November after more than three years closed. It is the tenth attempt to normalize a service that was inaugurated in 2007 and that has accumulated more than 800 days without functioning since then. The total cost of repairs reaches 171 million eurosnot counting compensation to neighbors, which already exceeds 23 million and continues to increase. A disaster that began in 2007. When Esperanza Aguirre promoted this expansion to have it ready before the regional elections of 2007, no one could imagine the consequences. The construction of the tunnel seriously altered the subsoil by bringing salt and water into contact, which caused the progressive dissolution of the soil. The result: collapse of the tunnels, massive water leaks and structural damage to hundreds of homes in San Fernando de Henares and Coslada. According to internal documents obtained by El Paísalready in 2008 the technicians warned of the “risk of collapses in the metro tunnel and the surrounding buildings”, and in 2009 they warned that action was “extremely urgent.” The figures of the disaster. The repair bill includes 117 million invested by the Ministry of Transport in works and compensation, 49.7 million from the Canal de Isabel II in hydraulic infrastructure, 2.4 million from the Metro itself and 1.7 million from the Ministry of Education to demolish the El Pilar educational complex. In total, more than 171 million euros. But the number will continue to grow: Property compensation, which in 2022 was estimated at 12 million, has already reached 23.3 million and there are nearly 300 open files. Additionally, 73 homes had to be completely demolished, leaving families paying mortgages on homes that no longer existed. The technical solution. To stabilize the ground, the Community has injected more than 11,000 tons of mortar of concrete in the subsoil through 26,000 drillings that reach up to 45 meters deep. It has also deployed 179 mini topographic prisms inside the metro and laser sensors that send daily data on ground movements. The Polytechnic University of Madrid analyzes also satellite images to detect any anomaly. According to the Minister of Housing, Transport and Infrastructure, Jorge Rodrigo, 511 surveillance elements and five robotic stations have been installed that will constantly monitor the road, the land and nearby buildings. The neighbors don’t forget. Although the Community assures that the infrastructure now presents “stability” and meets “the necessary security conditions”, those affected they maintain their mobilizations and demand greater compensation in court. Furthermore, a study by the Polytechnic University detected “considerable movements” in distant areas “without stabilizing”, although without specifying more details. For the 120,000 inhabitants of San Fernando de Henares and Coslada, the November reopening is just the first step to move forward in almost two decades of nightmare. And now what. The Community will allocate an additional 8.2 million to surveillance and maintenance contracts to act immediately in the event of any incident without the need for emergency contracts. Line 7B will be the most monitored infrastructure of the Madrid Metro, precisely because it is the one that has caused the most problems. It remains to be seen if this time the line is truly stable or if it will close again, as has happened on nine previous occasions.
