the_skywise writes: "Shake Shack says a technology glitch, not a no-tip surcharge, caused the price increase shown in a viral video at a licensed airport location.
“It is not Shake Shack policy, nor that of our licensees, to increase the price of menu items when no tip is added,” the company said in an email to NewsNation on Monday.
The clarification comes after a TikTok video sparked online backlash over what appeared to be a penalty for not tipping."

Shake Shack claims it was a franchisee location that had a bug in their software that they've now fixed.

China is estimated to control at least 60% of the U.S. market for home routers, boxes that connect computers, phones, and smart devices to the internet.

The FCC order does not impact the âimport or use of existing models, but will ban new ones.
The agency âsaid a White House-convened review deemed imported routers pose "a severe cybersecurity risk âthat could be leveraged to immediately and severely disrupt U.S. critical infrastructure."
