FBI investigating dark-web service claiming 153M license records, raising CDL security concerns

The FBI is examining a dark-web service that claimed access to 153 million driver’s license records. The Nexus collection covered people across the United States and Canada. Some entries carried labels reading “CDL” or “ECDL.” Researchers warn that stolen credentials could complicate driver verification throughout the supply chain. “The FBI can confirm that it is looking into the incident,” FBI New Orleans told FreightWaves.

Maersk unfurls new sail power for container ship

Maersk has signed an agreement to install a high-tech “rotor sail” on one of its container vessels, marking the company’s first foray into wind-assisted propulsion for its ocean fleet. The 115-foot-tall sail, designed by London-based Anemoi Marine Technologies, will be retrofitted to a 984-foot, 8,700-TEU Lima-class ship and piloted during regular commercial service, with installation due in mid-2027. The vessel is expected to operate on Maersk (OTC: AMKBY ) north and south Atlantic voyages while the sail is piloted. The system will be tested in commercial service after that. Anemoi typically installs three to five rotor sails per vessel, with each unit saving roughly one ton of fuel per day and around three tons of CO₂ emissions, according to the company’s specifications.

De La Espriella took power last month vowing “all-out war” against illegal armed groups and he published the footage on Thursday in an apparent attempt to show he was fulfilling that pledge.
