This is interesting, but given people short attention spans on the Internet, I’m concerned that they may only read the misinformation part and skip the part that explains that it’s misinformation.
Wow, the problem with Silk Road wasn't crypto. That's not why he was convicted and sentenced to Life imprisonment without the possibility of parole plus a $183,961,921 fine.

Makes sense Trump wouldn't care at all about criminal convictions though, those are his friends.
Before the collapse, FTX had a lot of mainstream credibility. The head of the SEC was personally meeting with the CEO, along with various other government figures, who were getting huge donations. Celebrities were endorsing the exchange, which on the surface seemed massively successful and legitimate. Yes, people in the know warned about the suspiciously high rewards it offered for keeping your money there, and there was information to make the correct choice to stay away out of caution, but to the average investor this wasn't the equivalent of a nigerian prince email. The cryptocurrency community should have done more to foster skepticism. The government should have been investigating for the criminal fraud instead of chumming around with its lobbyists. The blame doesn't all land on dumb investors.
Right, I just thought I'd give you the benefit of the doubt. The article is about FTX, and FTX was a scam, but crypto is clearly not, by any reasonably specific definition of the word.
The fact that they used a cryptocurrency they invented to be the basis of account for all internal funds and accounting. This cryptocurrency they invented was for the sole purpose of keeping their records in the invented cryptocurrency as disclosured prominently on their website.
That was definitely incredibly sus but not something I would expect the average person mostly unfamiliar with finance and cryptocurrency to identify as a red flag and not an "innovation", especially before the cascade of disasters related to various schemes of this type.
This has nothing to do with the Files app, nor does it have anything to do with re-indexing of the Photos library. This has to do with fighting CSAM. Apple has started (in this or a previous update), to scan your device (including deleted files) for anything containing nudity (search for "brasserie") and adding it to your photos library in a way that it is hidden. That way, anything that the models detect as nudity is stored in your iCloud database permanently. Apple is doing this because it allows them to screen for unknown CSAM material. Currently it can only recognize known fingerprints, but doing this allows them (and the other parties that have access to your iCloud data) to analyze unknown media.
The bug mentioned here accidentally made those visible to the user. The change visible updates the assets in the library in a way that removes the invisibility flag, hence people noticing that there are old nudes in their library that they cannot delete.
...
And speaking of deleting things, things are never really deleted. The iPhone keeps a record of messages you delete and media, inside the KnowledgeC database. This is often used for forensic purposes. Apple is migrating this to the Biome database, which has the benefit of being synchronized to iCloud. It is used to feed Siri with information, among other things. Anything you type into your devices, or fingerprints of anything you view are sent to Apple's servers and saved. Spooky, if you ask me. But the only way we can have useful digital assistants is when they have access to everything, that's just how it works.
Nudes are meant to persist on iPhone. You're just not meant to notice.
Wow such an insight. Make the systems more secure is their golden nugget of wisdom.
Training does work and is proven over and over again. People can got annoyed as much as they want so long as they don't click the fucking links.
