Dutch court accepts jurisdiction in COVID-19 vaccine civil suit naming Bill Gates
[RECORD.TXT] · cat --full
A civil lawsuit filed by seven Dutch plaintiffs who say they were injured by COVID-19 vaccines names Bill Gates alongside former Dutch prime minister and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla, members of the Netherlands' COVID-19 Outbreak Management Team, and the Dutch State, alleging they misled the public about vaccine safety. A court in the Northern Netherlands ruled it has jurisdiction to hear the case, allowing the civil proceedings to move forward. Widely shared online claims that Gates had 'lost,' been 'indicted,' or been 'ordered to stand trial in person' are unsupported: fact-checkers note the matter is an unresolved civil suit, not a criminal trial, and that it is unlikely Gates will personally appear. The case had drawn little mainstream coverage despite reaching more than a million views on social media.

Phoebe Gates's AI shopping startup Phia takes off — built with 'no ties to my last name'
Phoebe Gates, the youngest child of Bill Gates and Melinda French Gates, has drawn attention for Phia, the AI-powered shopping app she co-founded with Sophia Kianni. Launched in April 2025, Phia scans the web and secondhand marketplaces to find deals on fashion; by early 2026 it had surpassed a million users, grown revenue elevenfold, and raised more than $40 million — including a $35 million round — at a valuation around $185 million, backed by Kleiner Perkins, Kris Jenner, and Hailey Bieber. Notably, Phoebe took no money from her parents, saying she wanted to 'build something generational that has no ties to me, my privilege, or my last name.'
