AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoApple & USVI Connectivity: iPhone 18 Pro is eSIM-only in the U.S. Virgin Islands (no SIM tray), joining 11 other markets on Apple’s list—so first setup depends on a carrier that supports eSIM. Apple also says the US model supports dual eSIM (two active lines, with eight or more stored), but carrier lock terms for the new phones aren’t clearly published. Cybersecurity & Courts: Ontario’s court system warned that a breach tied to Thomson Reuters’ C-Track case-management platform may have exposed sealed or redacted records, with the unauthorized access starting months earlier than first detected. Biotech IP in the Caribbean: Barbados plans to seek patent protection for three novel sargassum microorganisms after pharmaceutical interest—aiming to keep potential commercial value local rather than sell outright. AI in Lending: A new analysis argues many “AI” mortgage tools are wrappers built on third-party models, raising concerns about stability and explainability in regulated lending. Environment & Ice Monitoring: Scientists report a massive Greenland iceberg (about St. Thomas-sized) survived a collision with Joe Island and continues drifting—tracked via satellite imagery. Local Health & Travel Safety: Clorox Puerto Rico recalled 6.3M Mistolin/Lestoil bottles sold in Puerto Rico and the USVI due to possible Pseudomonas aeruginosa contamination, with higher risk flagged for immunocompromised travelers.
