Some of the steepest tariffs target countries where Apple assembles its devices: Vietnam (46%), China (34%), and India (26%).
According to The New York Times, Apple now faces a choice — absorb the costs and reduce profits, or pass them on to customers.

North Korea’s Cyber Heists Fuel Nuclear Ambitions
North Korea is stealing over $6 billion in cryptocurrency in the last decade to fund its nuclear weapons programme.
At the heart of this effort is North Korea's "IT Warriors" program, which comprises more than 8,000 highly trained hackers. The programme was first mentioned in the 1990s by the late leader, Kim Jong Il, who said that "future wars will be computerised".
Investigators say North Korea's cyber operatives have posed as Western tech firm remote IT workers using fake or stolen identities. This provides the regime with access to sensitive networks and enables it to generate income, as in a scheme that allegedly earned North Korean nationals $88 million from US tech salaries.

Some of the most notable recent attacks include:
• WazirX hack (July 2024): Hackers infiltrate India's largest cryptocurrency exchange and steal more than $200 million in a rapid, automated operation involving more than 400 transactions in just over an hour.
• Bybit heist (2025): In what is now the largest known crypto theft in history, North Korea stole $1.5 billion from Bybit, a major global crypto exchange.
