The Alienware AW3425DW is very similar to the company's previous designs, though it gets a bit of a refresh in its stand and styling. The newer OLED panel is also faster—a full 240Hz—while retaining the semi-standard 3440×1440 ultrawide resolution. The new design also gets a USB-C port, something conspicuously absent from both previous models… but don't get too excited because it's only 15 watts and there's nothing in the specs to indicate this port can handle video input. So this monitor isn't ideal for a gaming laptop, but it's still serviceable.
That said, with a starting price of just $799.99, I think a lot of gamers will be willing to overlook that detail, especially considering the OLED panel gets a three-year warranty against burn-in and other defects. Personally, if I were hunting for an OLED monitor deal, I'd wait on this one since Dell frequently discounts even its most high-end monitors. But with the US tariff situation in constant flux, it might be worth biting the bullet now.

The US House of Representatives has passed the Take It Down Act, a bipartisan bill that criminalizes the "publication of non-consensual, sexually exploitative images," including AI-generated deepfakes that depict "identifiable, real people." It would also compel platforms, such as social networks, to remove those images within 48 hours of being notified. The bill enjoyed overwhelming support in Congress and was cleared for approval by President Trump with a vote of 409 to 2. It passed Senate unanimously in February, and Trump, who previously talked about it while addressing Congress, is expected to sign the bill into law.
Nearly every state in the country has its own laws revolving around revenge porn, and there are 20 states that already have laws that cover deepfakes. Take It Down's authors, who include Senator Ted Cruz, explained that those laws "vary in classification of crime and penalty and have uneven criminal prosecution." Victims are also still having a tough time getting their images removed under those laws. However, it's that takedown provision in the bill that has raised concerns among critics.
According to the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the provision could potentially apply to any image that's perceived as sexual or intimate even if it's not revenge porn. It has much broader definitions of what a "non-consensual, sexually exploitative image" is compared to its narrower definitions in other parts of the bill, the organization said. In addition, the EFF argued that the bill lacks safeguards
