On August 9, 1945, a second atom bomb is dropped on Japan by the United States, at Nagasaki, resulting finally in Japan's unconditional surrender. The devastation wrought at Hiroshima was not sufficient to convince the Japanese War Council to accept the Potsdam Conference's demand for unconditional surrender.

The United States bombings of the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and August 9, 1945, were the first instances of atomic bombs used against humans, killing tens of thousands of people, obliterating the cities, and contributing to the end of World War II.

Cambridge Analytica, the data consulting firm at the center of Facebook’s latest privacy scandal, has filed for bankruptcy in the United States.

The firm announced earlier this month that it was shutting down because “the siege of media coverage has driven away virtually all of the company’s customers and suppliers.” It filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of New York, Thursday, and so did its affiliate, SCL USA.The firm, which was reportedly created to use psychometrics — which nowadays involves building psychological profiles partly based on people’s social media activity — to focus on U.S. elections with millions of dollars in backing from Republican donor Robert Mercer, bought the data of tens of millions of Facebook users from a Cambridge University researcher. That researcher, Aleksandr Kogan, originally collected the information for a personality-quiz app on Facebook. He said he later changed the terms of service of the app to inform users that he would be selling their data.

In its filing, Cambridge Analytica — which once had former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon as its vice president — listed assets of $100,001 to $500,000 and liabilities of $1 million to $10 million.

The filing was signed on behalf of the board by Rebekah and Jennifer Mercer, daughters of Robert Mercer.
