Abu Dhabi is tightening the rules on its waterways as marine tourism grows. We look at restrictions on jet skis, why certain areas need greater protection and what motorised watercraft can mean for dolphins and other marine life.

We also explore the privacy concerns surrounding smart glasses, covert filming and AI-generated deepfakes, including the unusual suggestion that singing a Disney song could stop footage being shared.

And should cats be kept indoors? New research suggests making the move from outdoor roaming to life inside may be easier than owners think.
