MAP Alert News (Dec 15-31, 2025)

This list, as with the last, is to be continuously updated throughout a two week period, regardless of what articles Mu posts on top of it. Feel free to browse our video channel, as well. Owing to the time of year, the amount of content we provide you with will be slimmed down somewhat. In particular, from the week of 22 Dec, we will be running a very basic service until the New Year.
Where an article is paywalled, we will attempt to link the best mirror found at removepaywall.com. In some jurisdictions, American news websites will redirect you to their YouTube channels for legal reasons. There is nothing we can do about this at our end, sadly; consider VPN usage or Tor proxy.
We encourage Mu readers to post about any of these news stories on MAP Forum, where they will hopefully get feedback; in some cases, Jim will create a post a day or two after posting the story here.
We strongly suggest to readers who like to comment these pieces at the news site, not to wait for the story to appear here, as it will be too late for your comments to be seen. Instead, conduct your own Google News searches using the prompts at the bottom of this article and ultra-short-dated time range specifiers, e.g. when:24h,or when:48h. For archives of this news-wrap service, see the tag for MAP Alert News in the header.
