By then, the company, based in Espoo, Finland, was making one of every three cellphones globally. But just nine years later, the mobile-device maker offloaded its entire handset division to Microsoft for pennies on the dollar, compared to what it had been worth at its peak. Nokia had risen from obscurity in the 1990s to become…

Uber’s robotaxi lobbying effort puts it on a collision course with Waymo
A proposed bill that would allow autonomous vehicles to operate in Washington, D.C. has become a test case for Uber’s broader robotaxi strategy.

Uber, which opposes the bill, argues the proposed rule would displace for-hire human drivers and hand Waymo…
