Hacking internet-connected civilian security cameras for recon has become a standard operating procedure of modern warfare. First for Russia and Ukraine, now for Israel and Iran.
Your insecure internet-of-things surveillance system is now their targeting system.

SCOOP: Proton Mail provided Swiss authorities with payment data that the FBI then used to determine who was allegedly behind an anonymous account affiliated with the Stop Cop City movement in Atlanta, according to a court record reviewed by 404 Media.
This shows the sort of data that Proton Mail, which prides itself both on end-to-end encryption and that it's only governed by Swiss privacy law, can provide to third parties. In this case, the FBI. @evystadium.bsky.social has more.

"I see AI as having applicability across, again, every single tactic that would be relevant to those on-network operations, So it's a game changer in that sense.”
Yeah, the FBI is using AI to hack targets, saying it has "tremendous benefits."
As the federal immigration crackdown has expanded across the United States, the government’s activities have relied on infrastructure from several key tech companies. Palantir has received particular attention for its work with ICE.

I'm late Gen X and all I'm saying is Millennials got fucked harder than anyone else. They were raised on post 9/11 American media and government and it's just been an endless stream of shit. And I'm not even talking about the 09 collapse. The wars, watching guns shred schools, social media insanity
The two things that I think REALLY separate Millennials and Gen X, are
1. Gen X was born into a declining world - that's what undergirds their stereotypical cynicism. But Millennials were came of age during an upswing. Only to have every good thing systemically taken away from them.
Everyone skips past the 02 financial crisis because 09 was so bad.
But depending on how you parse millenial...it's been bad for awhile but also the worst bit is they grew up during a period where things were getting better and then got the rug pulled out from under them.

On Wednesday, the 🇺🇸government stopped supporting FPDS.gov, an indispensable resource for finding what ICE, the FBI, and every other agency is buying.
Its replacement site “completely sucks,” writes @josephcox.bsky.social.

The left is not "missing out" on AI. It's winning the argument. Americans worry about AI and dislike tech CEOs. They're mobilizing against data centers. They support regulation, even refusal.
Calls for the left to embrace AI are an effort to change the terms of the debate in Silicon Valley's favor.
In 2020, the FBI came to my house to try to ask me questions about a story I'd written. I declined.
For this.weekinsecurity.com, I wrote about the back-story of what happened that day and after, my outstanding questions, and why press freedoms have taken a major step back under Trump's second term.
