Stomping around the NBA as the defending champions can have its benefits. Last week, the Boston Celtics took advantage of theirs. One really cool perk: a team reunion happens near the White House Rose Garden with the President of the United States offering compliments on — of all things — points per possession. Also, Jaylen Brown, the 2024 Finals MVP, can basically tweet things into existence, like meeting childhood idol Bill Nye the Science Guy, then actually get him to come to a game. But the luxuries that last year’s accomplishments bestowed on the 2024-25 Celtics do little to nothing for what matters this season: winning again. Since the 2017 and 2018 seasons, the NBA has not produced back-to-back champions. Not with the Golden State Warriors, who won in 2022 on the last fumes of their dynasty, or with the 2023 champion Denver Nuggets, who are still led by the league’s best player in Nikola Jokic. Boston, with its young superstars Brown and Jayson Tatum still in their 20s and a strong core stocked with veterans Jrue Holiday, Derrick White and (insert name of healthy center here), would figure to be the favorites again next June. Yet, that’s not a given. Even with the distinction of being the only team thus far this year to knock off the Cleveland Cavaliers, who started the season 15-0, Boston faces the same obstacles that tripped up the previous five champs. Specifically, can they recapture the angst? “I think we still got a lot to prove,” White said last Friday night, following the Celtics’ closer-than-expected 108-96 win over the Washington Wizards. “It’s going to be a long season, We just got to enjoy the ups and downs and know what led us to our success last year.” Rewind to last season and think back to those Celtics players who wouldn’t leave the house without a big ol’ chip on their shoulders. They loved that chip. Carried it everywhere they went. Nursed it to sleep every night. Gave it a name and called it Disrespect. Back then, it was easy to fuel a whole season with that energy because Boston was coming off a disappointing playoff run (losing in Game 7 of the 2023 Eastern Conference Finals to the Miami Heat) and feeling the tight squeeze of a narrowing championship window. So when Boston finally broke through, defeating the Dallas Mavericks in the 2024 NBA Finals, it felt like long-delayed relief. As the confetti fell, Tatum found his mother and shouted: “What they gonna say now?!” then repeated it during his television interview. After soaking in champagne, Brown rushed to Instagram to mock those who betted against Boston. They replaced the chip with a golden trophy. Yet since then, it seems they’ve tried to manufacture the angst for more motivation this year. Over the summer, they searched for slights. When Brown didn’t get picked as an injury replacement for the USA men’s basketball team — his teammate White was selected instead — he again used social media as an outlet for his emotions. And after Tatum returned from the Paris Olympics, earning a gold medal despite remaining on the bench in two games, Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla called it a “gift” that could inspire him to work toward even more success in the future. Still, when you’re a reigning champ, it’s hard to live in the space of feeling disrespected. Not while standing and listening to President Joe Biden praise their accomplishments, as the Celtics did last Thursday afternoon during their visit to the White House. By Friday night, the love affair continued in downtown D.C. as Celtics fans once again commandeered Capital One Arena in support of their favorite team against the Wizards. It wasn’t enough that the color green dotted every section of the arena, and for the crowd to have been pro-Boston all night. Mazzulla felt he needed to contrive some chaos. “It changed the energy in the arena. Did you feel that?” Mazzulla said about picking up a technical foul in the third quarter. “It wasn’t really about energizing the team, I think it was just manipulating the environment. I thought that’s what the environment needed at the time. We just have to make those calls from time to time.” Mazzulla didn’t need to manipulate a thing last Tuesday night when Boston, playing in front of a fired-up home crowd, gave the Cavs their first loss. The tactic to stir up the room — his players, really — was necessary Friday night with the Celts shooting poorly (11 for 46 from the three-point arc overall) in a close game against a team that had lost nine straight. “Every game’s a little different. Some games (there’s) more energy, some games we just have to find a way,” White said. “Our coach does a good job of just trying to figure out the game and trying to figure out how we are, and put us in the right position to win.” Maybe because they’re champions, the Celtics can ratchet up the intensity when necessary, as they did in knocking off the best team in the Eastern Conference one night, then get away with playing abysmally against one of the worst teams in the league a few days later. Especially because they’re champs, Brown can get a personal audience with Nye in the back hallway of Capital One Arena, and pose for a photo with the man who made learning science a joy for him. No disrespect to the champs, but maybe this Boston group is so good that it doesn’t need any more made-up motivations.
fter a sprawling hacking campaign exposed the communications of an unknown number of Americans, U.S. cybersecurity officials are advising people to use encryption in their communications. To safeguard against the risks highlighted by the campaign, which originated in China, federal cybersecurity authorities released an extensive list of security recommendations for U.S. telecom companies — such as Verizon and AT&T — that were targeted. The advice includes one tip we can all put into practice with our phones: “Ensure that traffic is end-to-end encrypted to the maximum extent possible.” End-to-end encryption, also known as E2EE, means that messages are scrambled so that only the sender and recipient can see them. If anyone else intercepts the message, all they will see is garble that can’t be unscrambled without the key. Law enforcement officials until now resisted this type of encryption because it means the technology companies themselves won’t be able to look at the messages, nor respond to law enforcement requests to turn the data over. Here’s a look at various ways ordinary consumers can use end-to-end encryption: Officials said the hackers targeted the metadata of a large number of customers, including information on the dates, times and recipients of calls and texts. They also managed to see the content from texts from a much smaller number of victims. If you’re an iPhone user, information in text messages that you send to someone else who also has an iPhone will be encrypted end-to-end. Just look for the blue text bubbles, which indicate that they are encrypted iMessages. The same goes for Android users sending texts through Google Messages. There will be a lock next to the timestamp on each message to indicate the encryption is on. But there’s a weakness. When iPhone and Android users text each other, the messages are encrypted only using Rich Communication Services, an industry standard for instant messaging that replaces the older SMS and MMS standards. Apple has noted that RCS messages “aren’t end-to-end encrypted, which means they’re not protected from a third party reading them while they’re sent between devices.” Samsung, which sells Android smartphones, also hinted at the issue in a footnote at the bottom of a press release last month on RCS, saying, “Encryption only available for Android to Android communication.” To avoid getting caught out when trading texts, experts recommend using encrypted messaging apps. Privacy advocates are big fans of Signal, which applies end-to-end encryption to all messages and voice calls. The independent nonprofit group behind the app promises never to sell, rent or lease customer data and made its source code publicly available so that it can be audited by anyone to examine it “for security and correctness.” Signal’s encryption protocol is so reputable that it has been integrated into rival WhatsApp, so users will enjoy the same level of security protection as Signal, which has a much smaller user base. End-to-end encryption is also the default mode for Facebook Messenger, which like WhatsApp is owned by Meta Platforms. Telegram is an app that can be used for one-on-one conversations, group chats and broadcast “channels” but contrary to popular perception, it doesn’t turn on end-to-end encryption by default. Users have to switch on the option. And it doesn’t work with group chats. Cybersecurity experts warned people against using Telegram for private communications and pointed out that only its opt-in ‘secret chat’ feature is encrypted from end-to-end. The app also has a reputation for being a haven for scammers and criminal activity, highlighted by founder and CEO Pavel Durov’s arrest in France. Instead of using your phone to make calls through a wireless cellular network, you can make voice calls with Signal and WhatsApp. Both apps encrypt calls with the same technology that they use to encrypt messages. There are other options. If you have an iPhone you can use Facetime for calls, while Android owners can use the Google Fi service, which are both end-to-end encrypted. The only catch with all these options is that, as with using the chat services to send messages, the person on the other end will also have to have the app installed. WhatsApp and Signal users can customize their privacy preferences in the settings, including hiding an IP address during calls to prevent your general location from being guessed.

Supreme Court will take up a challenge related to California's tough vehicle emissions standards WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court says it will take up a business-backed appeal that could make it easier to challenge federal regulations, acting in a dispute related to California’s nation-leading standards for vehicle emissions. The justices agreed Friday to hear an appeal filed by fuel producers who object to a waiver granted to California in 2022 by the Environmental Protection Agency during Joe Biden’s presidency. The waiver allows California to set more stringent emissions limits than the national standard. The case won’t be argued until the spring, when the Trump administration is certain to take a more industry-friendly approach to the issue. Musk says US is demanding he pay penalty over disclosures of his Twitter stock purchases DETROIT (AP) — Elon Musk says the Securities and Exchange Commission wants him to pay a penalty or face charges involving what he disclosed — or failed to disclose — about his purchases of Twitter stock before he bought the social media platform in 2022. In a letter, Musk’s lawyer Alex Spiro tells the outgoing SEC chairman, Gary Gensler, that the commission’s demand for a monetary payment is a “misguided scheme” that won’t intimidate Musk. The letter also alleges that the commission reopened an investigation this week into Neuralink, Musk’s computer-to-human brain interface company. The SEC has not released the letter. Nor would it comment on it or confirm whether it has issued such a demand to Musk. Senate begins final push to expand Social Security benefits for millions of people WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate is pushing toward a vote on legislation that would provide full Social Security benefits to millions of people. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer began the process on Thursday for a final vote on the bill, known as the Social Security Fairness Act. It would eliminate policies that currently limit Social Security payouts for roughly 2.8 million people. The legislation has passed the House. The bill would add more strain on the Social Security Trust funds, which are already estimated to be unable to pay out full benefits beginning in 2035. The measure would add an estimated $195 billion to federal deficits over 10 years, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Trump offers support for dockworkers union by saying ports shouldn't install more automated systems WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump is offering his support for the dockworkers union before their contract expires next month at Eastern and Gulf Coast ports. He posted on social media Thursday that he met with union leaders and that any further “automation” of the ports would harm workers. He wrote that the “amount of money saved is nowhere near the distress, hurt, and harm it causes for American Workers.” The International Longshoremen’s Association has until Jan. 15 to negotiate a new contract with the U.S. Maritime Alliance, which represents ports and shipping companies. The Maritime Alliance says the technology will improve worker safety and strengthen our supply chains, among other things. IRS recovers $4.7 billion in back taxes and braces for cuts with Trump and GOP in power WASHINGTON (AP) — IRS leadership on Thursday announced that the agency has recovered $4.7 billion in back taxes and proceeds from a variety of crimes. The announcement comes under the backdrop of a promised reckoning from Republicans who will hold a majority over both chambers of the next Congress and have long called for rescinding the tens of billions of dollars in funding provided to the agency by Democrats. IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel said improvements made to the agency will help the incoming administration and new Republican majority congress achieve its goals of administering an extension of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. OpenAI's legal battle with Elon Musk reveals internal turmoil over avoiding AI 'dictatorship' A 7-year-old rivalry between tech leaders Elon Musk and Sam Altman over who should run OpenAI and best avoid an artificial intelligence ‘dictatorship’ is now heading to a federal judge as Musk seeks to halt the ChatGPT maker’s ongoing conversion into a for-profit company. Musk, an early OpenAI investor and board member, sued the artificial intelligence company earlier this year. Musk has since escalated the dispute, adding new claims and asking for a court order that would stop OpenAI’s plans to convert itself into a for-profit business more fully. OpenAI is filing its response Friday. OpenAI's Altman will donate $1 million to Trump's inaugural fund LOS ANGELES (AP) — OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is planning to make a $1 million personal donation to President-Elect Donald Trump’s inauguration fund, joining a number of tech companies and executives who are working to improve their relationships the incoming administration. A spokesperson for OpenAI confirmed the move on Friday. The announcement comes one day after Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, said it donated $1 million to the same fund. Amazon also said it plans to donate $1 million. China signals it's prepared to double down on support for the economy as Trump tariffs loom BANGKOK (AP) — Chinese leaders met this week to plot economic policy for the coming year and sketched out plans to raise government spending and relax Beijing's monetary policy. Analysts said the broad-brush plans from the annual Central Economic Work Conference were more of a recap of current policy than ambitious new initiatives at a time when the outlook is clouded by the President-elect Donald Trump's threats to sharply raise tariffs once he takes office. The ruling Communist Party did commit to raising China's deficit and to doing more to encourage consumer spending by bringing wage increases in line with the pace of economic growth. Here's a look at China's main priorities and their potential implications.
