Elon Musk knows how to dream big, and he may be helping Miami Mayor Francis Suarez to do the same. The 49-year-old billionaire tweeted in January that there is a solution to Miami traffic. On Thursday, Suarez met with representatives of Musk’s Boring Company at City Hall in Coconut Grove. Musk founded the infrastructure and tunnel construction services company in 2016 and unveiled its first underground tunnel in Los Angeles in 2018. Suarez plans to travel to Las Vegas from March 18-19 to get a closer look at the Boring Company’s tunnels.

Don’t take a selfie with your COVID-19 vaccination card. Here’s why.

If you’ve been on Instagram or Facebook these past few months, you might have been hit with the occasional engagement or pregnancy announcement, but there’s one announcement trend that might actually do more harm than good — the vaccination card selfie. Someone gets their COVID-19 vaccine, and after releasing a sigh of relief, they grab their smartphone, open the front-facing camera, and take a selfie with their self-identifying COVID-19 vaccination card. According to the BBB, the self-identifying information on the card makes you vulnerable to identity theft and can help scammers create phony versions. Unfortunately, the card has your full name and birthday on it, as well as information about where you got your vaccine. If your social media privacy settings aren’t set high, you may be giving valuable information away for anyone to use — including scammers.

Ron DeSantis said on Monday that he wants big tech companies to be forced to tell Floridians in detail how personal information is being collected, analyzed, and sold. DeSantis said there is new proposed legislation that will allow consumers in Florida to have a right to decide how their personal information, including biometric data, is used. DeSantis said the new legislative proposal will help to protect Floridians’ data privacy if it passes the Florida House and Senate. Florida House Speaker Chris Sprowls said the strong data privacy law also applies to genetic privacy and it will change the dynamic between customers and big tech. “It allows users to request deletion or correction of personal information,” Sprowls said about the proposed legislation, adding “The days in which you had no control will soon be over.”AdNEWS CONFERENCE: 3 p.m., Feb. 15

Accursio announced on Facebook on Monday that he will be reopening his market on Oct. 30. He is relying on the Barn2Door app to pre-sell yellow squash, zucchini, tomatoes, pickling cucumbers by the crate, and green beans. Geekwire reported in August that Barn2Door had raised $6 million to help farmers around the country to connect with neighboring customers. Accursio said there is a lot of uncertainty in the sector, but there is also a willingness to adapt. “We think the demand is going to be there but we may in two months have to shift gears again," Accursio said.
