Bloomberg said that Apple Inc failed to convince an appeals court in New York to reverse a nonjury trial ruling, which allowed customers of its e-books to pursue claims against the iPad maker over its e-book prices.

Bloomberg observed that Google Inc has already devised an online form to accept personal information deletion requests and formed an advisory committee to aid the company in complying to the European Court ruling on a citizen's right to be forgotten.

An unnamed source familiar with the matter said that the amount being sought by US authorities for BNP Paribas to settle allegations of dealing with countries that have been imposed with economic sanctions could reach over $10 billion, Bloomberg reported.
