❗️ Internal messages from Meta show employees discussing how 7.5 million child sexual abuse material reports annually disappeared after making FB Messenger end-to-end encrypted.

Meta simultaneously spent over $2 billion lobbying politicians, 4,433 grants totaling approximately $2.0 billion.

$0 of which went to child safety.

Instead, they invested millions into lobbying for app-store/OS-level age checks through the App Store Accountability Act, making sure they're not liable for age verification of children.

It seems as if Meta doesn't care about child safety or predators targeting our children. It is only concerned with making more money. They're going to lose a lot of money once a major part of their users can't be targeted by advertisers anymore.

Now the US is facing a major problem with age verification. Not only is legislation heavily influenced by big tech, but:
- Politicians are scared to be seen as ineffective and want to be reelected
- Conservatives push for it to prevent 18+ content
- Progressives push for it to stop predators from accessing children

Creating a Frankenstein set of laws...

❗️One of the godfathers of AI Andrej Karpathy shortly released research showing which jobs are most exposed to AI.

He deleted it afterwards, but a backup was found.

The brutal pattern: if you work behind a screen, AI is coming for you. If you work with your hands, you’re fine.

Higher education = more exposed.
Higher salary = more exposed.

143 million jobs analyzed. $3.7 trillion in wages exposed.

Every job in the US economy was scored for AI exposure from 0–10.

Some examples:
Bookkeepers: 9/10
Lawyers: 9/10
Software devs: 8/10

Roofers: 0/10
Carpenters: 2/10
Janitors: 1/10

‼️ China's biggest cybersecurity company, Qihoo 360 (461M users), just leaked their own wildcard SSL private key inside the public installer for their new AI assistant "360 Security Claw."

The private key for *.myclaw.360.cn was bundled directly in the download package under /namiclaw/components/OpenClaw/openclaw.7z/credentials. The cert is valid until April 2027.

Attackers can now impersonate their servers, intercept user traffic, and forge login pages.

Fun fact: the founder promised the product would "never leak passwords."

❗️Just in: An internal government report reveals federal cyber experts reviewed Microsoft's cloud.

They called it "a pile of shit."

Then approved it anyway. πŸ™ƒ

Microsoft's lack of proper security documentation left reviewers with a "lack of confidence in assessing the system's overall security posture," according to an internal government report reviewed by ProPublica.
