❗️Essex police shut down their live facial recognition cameras because they were catching too many black people
At the same time, they admitted the cameras rarely picked up anyone who wasn't already on the watchlist.
The system was accurate. They just didn't like the results.
A study found the system was "statistically significantly more likely" to correctly identify black people than other ethnicities. Also "more likely" to spot men than women.
So they're now updating the algorithm to detect without 'bias'. 🙃

❗️Microsoft announced it will stop forcing Copilot everywhere.
They're reducing unnecessary Copilot entry points in apps like Snipping Tool, Photos, Widgets, and Notepad.
Focus will shift to performance, reliability, and craft. Windows should become more user-friendly and faster to use.

They created a lookalike domain (scan.aquasecurtiy[.]org) and pulled 4 malicious Golang files from it into the build process.
What it steals:
▪️ SSH keys
▪️ Cloud credentials (AWS, GCP, Azure)
▪️ Kubernetes tokens
▪️ Crypto wallets
▪️ Environment variables
▪️ 50+ sensitive file paths scanned

❗️🇺🇸 A homeless man was running his burger restaurant "nasty azz cheeseburger" out of a shopping cart and selling through DoorDash.
The video went viral and people started wondering how it ever got listed.
DoorDash put the restaurant on inactive. 🙃
I bet the burgers were nasty and full of ass. 😂

❗️Pokémon Go creator Niantic used 30 billion images crowdsourced from players to build a map for AI training and visual positioning capabilities, including for defense purposes.
143 million people spent 8 years scanning streets, parks, and storefronts with their cameras. None of them knew what they were contributing to.
Niantic is now using that data for questionable purposes.

‼️DELUSIONAL: Reddit's CEO wants to 'anonymously' verify human identity through identifiable and personal data...
They want to combat their bot problem while keeping users 'anonymous'. The CEO mentioned Face ID and Touch ID as possible methods.
Someone needs to tell Reddit's CEO what anonymity means. And that passkeys authenticated through Face ID and Touch ID don't prove you're human.
