For the AI microchip maker NVIDIA, it was like winning an Oscar, a Grammy, an Emmy, and a Nobel Prize all at the same time, and then your audience says, all right, but what else you got?
The company posted blockbuster quarterly profits late yesterday, with revenue up 73%, with predictions the next quarter should be higher than that.
Yet, in pre-market trading now, NVIDIA's stock is up only a little.

This comes as lawmakers around the world are pushing new safety laws that could require users to verify their age by uploading maybe a government ID or submitting to a facial scan.
But some digital rights advocates warn that done wrong, systems to make the online world safer for children could put sensitive private data in the wrong hands.
We're joined now by Kian Vestenson.
He's a senior researcher at Freedom House, a nonprofit focused on democracy and human rights.

There are ways that are more vulnerable, but there are ways you're persuaded in this world of hackers where there's a decent chance that your data will be safeguarded.
