Justice Department sues RealPage over allegedly helping landlords collude to drive up rents


RealPage, a company that sells property management software, has been sued by the Justice Department and attorneys general for allegedly violating U.S. antitrust laws.

EV startup Canoo’s chief technology officer Sohel Merchant has left the company, two people familiar with his departure have told TechCrunch. The move is an effort to squeeze additional revenue from second-hand products, over concerns that cheaper, slightly used bikes, treadmills and rowers could cannibalize used sales. America’s space industry seems mature, but the supply chain that provides all the parts and components for rockets, satellites, and other spacecraft is considerably less so.
