Walmart heiress Christy Walton promotes "No Kings" anti-Trump protest in ad
Walmart heiress Christy Walton is promoting a coordinated nationwide protest against President Trump through a full-page ad that ran in the New York Times on Sunday. The ad placed by the billionaire heiress calls on readers to participate in a "No Kings" protest slated to take place across the country on Saturday, June 14 — the same day a military parade celebrating the Army's 250th Anniversary is set to take place in Washington, D.C. The date of the parade and protests also coincides with Mr. Trump's birthday. Walton urges readers to "mobilize" around the "No Kings" protest on June 14, the name and date of which is included in the ad. Ad placed in the New York Times by billionaire heiress Christy Walton calling on readers to participate in anti-Trump "No Kings" protests slated to take place nationwide. r/goodnews subreddit Below the header, Walton lists eight declarations, including "WE honor our commitments and stand by our allies, WE defend against aggression by dictators, WE care for veterans and children, WE respect our neighbors and trading partners, WE support a health national and international economy, WE uphold the stability of rule of law," and more. More text is printed at the bottom of the full-page advertisement. "We are the people of the United States of America. The honor, dignity, and integrity of our country are not for sale," it reads. "Our government is of the people, by the people, for the people," the last line of the ad states. Walmart made clear that the retail chain is not in any way associated with Ms. Walton's ad. "The advertisements from Christy Walton are in no way connected to or endorsed by Walmart. She does not serve on the board or play any role in decision-making at Walmart," the company said in a statement to CBS MoneyWatch. "Eat the tariffs" Walmart was among the retailers in May who said that Mr. Trump's tariff agenda would force them to pass on added costs to its customers. "We can control what we can control," Walmart CEO Doug McMillon said on the company's first quarter earnings call last month. "Even at the reduced levels, the higher tariffs will result in higher prices," he added. Mr. Trump later warned Walmart against raising its prices, writing on social media that it should "eat the tariffs" rather than raise prices on consumer products to offset costs associated with the levies. When asked about the protests Thursday, Mr. Trump said he did not feel like a king because "I have to go through hell to get stuff approved." What are the "No Kings" protests? A website dedicated to the protests explains that Saturday will mark "a national day of action and mass mobilization" in response to what it calls "the increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption of the Trump administration." "We've watched as they've cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political positions, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They've done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies. They think they rule — but we are bigger than even their worst aspirations," the site reads. The date of the protests was deliberately selected to detract attention from Mr. Trump's military parade, the group said on the website. "Instead of allowing this military parade to be the center of gravity, we will make action everywhere else the story of America that day: people coming together in communities across the country to reject strongman politics and corruption."

Aadhaar Authentication Expansion: What Private Entities Need to Know
The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) recently amended the Aadhaar Act to allow private entities to use Aadhaar authentication. This move aims to enhance service delivery and ensure consent-based data processing across various sectors, including e-commerce, travel, healthcare, and others. However, to leverage Aadhaar, private firms need to understand the regulatory requirements around privacy, data security and compliance. This article will clarify what the notification entails and what private players must do to offer Aadhaar-based services legally and securely. Previously, Aadhaar authentication was restricted to banks, telecom firms and government services. The latest amendment now permits voluntary use across the private sectors, including: E-commerce Travel and hospitality Healthcare Other digital platforms This will boost innovation in service delivery, such as seamless hotel check-ins, quicker deliveries, and enhanced customisation. However, protecting data privacy remains paramount. Hence, strict protocols around consent, transparency and security must be instituted. Private entities must register with the UIDAI through a designated portal and ensure full compliance with all applicable regulations. Under the Aadhaar Act 2016, specific requirements exist for offering Aadhaar-based services: Users must be informed about the authentication process and the purpose of data collection. Prior explicit consent is mandatory. Only necessary attributes should be accessed. Excess data collection is prohibited. Data can only be used for the exact purpose stated during the consent process. No further processing is allowed. Entities must have robust cybersecurity controls, encryption mechanisms and access protocols in place. Users must have precise grievance redressal mechanisms that are easily accessible to address their concerns. Regular third-party audits are mandated to ensure continued compliance. Any violations will invite penalties under the Aadhaar Act. Hence, understanding the regulatory landscape is key before adoption. Interested companies must apply on the UIDAI's portal, providing details of the proposed usage. UIDAI will scrutinise applications to gauge data security preparedness. Final approval will be granted based on UIDAI's recommendations. Once approved, APIs can be integrated into the entity's systems. Extensive testing will be conducted before the system goes live. Annual audits are also needed. – Approvals will require periodic renewals. Updated audits have to be furnished. By investing in robust data infrastructure, private players can securely unlock the power of Aadhaar. However, continuous self-appraisals and upgrades are essential for maintaining sustainable compliance. Some key advantages include: For service providers: Enhanced service delivery and customisation Innovation in offerings like seamless travel, personalised healthcare Prevent identity fraud losses through Aadhaar multi-factor authentication Reduce costs by digitising paper-based processes For consumers: Secure consent-based data sharing across services Convenience of single digital identity verification across platforms Control over personal data usage Minimise identity fraud For the government: Expand secure digital governance Enforce compliance standards across sectors Innovation towards a privacy-first digital economy Consistent citizen experience across services By upholding consent, privacy and security protocols, Aadhaar usage can accelerate India's digital public infrastructure. The voluntary adoption of Aadhaar by regulated private entities promises to stimulate digital innovation and enhance service delivery while prioritising consent and data privacy. However, the success of this policy amendment depends greatly on awareness and compliant implementation. Strict audits and updates to existing infrastructure will be vital for private players to demonstrate continual adherence. Additionally, clear communication and consent flows for consumers must be ensured. Overall, the expansion marks a new era of responsible data sharing between public and private digital ecosystems, paving the way for an integrated and secure digital economy. Yes, the government has amended the Aadhaar Act to allow private entities, such as e-commerce and healthcare firms, to use Aadhaar authentication to enhance service delivery. This ensures secure, consent-based transactions for a better user experience. The Aadhaar Authentication for Good Governance Amendment Rules, 2025, permit private entities to utilise Aadhaar for voluntary authentication to enhance services in sectors such as travel and healthcare, subject to strict privacy and compliance regulations. Private entities in e-commerce, travel, tourism, hospitality, and healthcare can now utilise Aadhaar authentication to verify user identities securely. This expands its use beyond banks and telecom. Private entities must apply through the UIDAI portal, detailing their use case, and get approval from MeitY after UIDAI reviews their data security measures. User consent is mandatory to ensure transparency about how Aadhaar data is used, protecting privacy and preventing misuse by private entities. TIME BUSINESS NEWS
