Luckily it's not a thousand.

I'm sure if we just give Hitler the Sudetenland, he'll stop invading other countries, and we'll have peace for our time.

🚨 BREAKING #Google just activated #Gemini on #Gmail - without asking you.

Turn it off now; here's how!

✊️ Fight AI & fight Google

You have to manually turn off Smart Features in the Setting menu in TWO locations.

Share so everyone is aware. ❤️

EDIT: The Malwarebytes article has been updated:

"After taking a closer look at Google’s documentation and reviewing other reporting, that doesn’t appear to be the case."

This confusion could've been easily avoided if Google was more clear in how they communicate with their users.

ORIGINAL:

PSA to anyone who uses Gmail!

"Reportedly, Google has recently started automatically opting users in to allow Gmail to access all private messages and attachments for training its AI models. This means your emails could be analyzed to improve Google’s AI assistants, like Smart Compose or AI-generated replies. Unless you decide to take action."

Microsoft announces a new marketing strategy for the Year of the Linux Desktop 😉 Thank you for doing this. 😂 Nobody asked for this kind of product that breaks all privacy and safety standards. So choose wisely

@nixCraft Apple more than Google for sure

AI browsers are a cybersecurity time bomb https://www.theverge.com/report/810083/ai-browser-cybersecurity-problems

@mosseri I know, it's crazy, but how about getting rid of the algorithm altogether and going back to a time-line?

Signal's president claimed it takes billions to replicate the availability and reliability of "hyperscalers" (AWS/Google/Microsoft/Cloudfare) that Signal uses.

#chatmail and #deltachat are about disproving this claim by

1) making relays super cheap (DONE)

2) enabling chat profiles to use multiple relays redundantly (WIP)

3) distributing relay knowledge among chatters (TBD).

Fat servers, corporate overlords and billionaires: not needed and better to not exist for a convivial e2ee future :)

Studie: KI-Chatbots lügen bei 40 Prozent der Antworten

Eine neue Studie der Europäischen Rundfunkunion zeigt alarmierende Fehlerquoten bei populären KI-Chatbots. Die Systeme erfinden regelmäßig Informationen und geben sogar falsche Quellen an. Von Jörg Schieb.

🚨 Warnings over Perplexity’s Comet Browser 🚨

AI browsers are the new hype but it doesn't mean they are safe to use 👉🏼

Security researchers from LayerX Security have revealed that the AI browser is vulnerable to CometJacking attacks, allowing hackers to hijack sessions and access user data.

For more info on why you're better off not using Comet: https://tuta.com/blog/perplexity-comet-browser-security-privacy-risks

#Perplexity #AIBrowser #CometBrowser

Adding AI to a web browser massively increases the attack surface that hackers can use to steal your data from that browser — from your recent internet history to your saved passwords and credit card numbers — and potentially beyond, including the private data saved on your computer or phone.

I'm curious to know what @timbl thinks about the ‘AI browsers’ that have proliferated lately

Microsoft are rolling out Gaming Copilot to all Windows 11 PCs (excluding in China).

Enabled by default, silent install, takes screenshots and trains MS AI by default.

It installed on my Windows 11 Professional PC 🫡 it’s also not dependent on an NPU or Copilot+

Imagine a browser where you type in “Taylor Swift” and it doesn’t even admit that her website exists. I write about Atlas, ChatGPT’s new anti-web browser that should come with a warning label. https://www.anildash.com/2025/10/22/atlas-anti-web-browser/

@aesthr same with restaurants! I know a lot of them that are only online via Instagram.

Hi guys, I started working at AWS as a Senior Software Developer. A couple of hours ago, I pushed new updates to AWS to speed things up. I have a good feeling about it. I'm so glad for the new job 🙃

Just one word: enshittification

🚨⏳ Act now! You have until November 3rd, 2025 to prevent Microsoft from using your LinkedIn data to train AI.
