Agency chair Lina Khan was visiting resort during cyber attack

Oof.

CyberSeeker , in Microsoft will limit Exchange Online bulk emails to fight spam

Probably a good change. Most legitimate bulk email messaging probably goes through a third party service already in your SPF record; surveymonkey, listserv, etc.

EmperorHenry , in Microsoft will limit Exchange Online bulk emails to fight spam
@EmperorHenry@infosec.pub avatar

anything at all except what would be effective.

Someone said elsewhere in this thread that bulk emails are usually sent through other services anyway. The scammers are just going to change the service they use to spam

EmperorHenry , in FTC Bans Online Mental Health Firm From Sharing Certain Data
@EmperorHenry@infosec.pub avatar

"Certain" data, but not all data.

Our data privacy laws need to be like Switzerland. Corporations shouldn't be allowed to collect information about us the way they do.

If they want to collect information for surveys, they should have to pay us and inform us about what they'll do with that data. It needs to be genuine informed consent.

orphiebaby , in DeepMind CEO Says Google Will Spend More Than $100 Billion on AI

Imagine having such a mind-boggling, unfathomable amount of money to waste, and using it to exploit work instead of making sure people aren't starving or one foot in homelessness.

cornshark ,

Perhaps we can spend $100bln on AI and then ask that AI to solve it?

orphiebaby ,

...We have all the answers, resources, and manpower. That's crazy-obvious. The problem is we aren't implementing them because that's spending money on people who won't get people (or at least, the individuals) a profit in return. AI can tell you stuff all you want, but if you're too greedy to implement it, then, well...

TCB13 , in 31% of women in tech consider switching roles over the next year
@TCB13@lemmy.world avatar

This is a bullshit study. If this was for all people (not only women) the results would be even worse. Nobody is currently happy in IT and the reasons are management, compensation and training.

@timewarp@lemmy.world avatar

chemical_cutthroat , in Bots dominate internet activity, account for nearly half of all traffic
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

Everyone and their brother are scraping any and all available data to feed it into AI. Expect this rise to continue as it will be a new source of revenue.

Gonna end up being one bot talking to another, believing that they're gonna make money off each other soon enough.

lemmyreader ,

@NewLeaf@hexbear.net avatar

So libs are right half the time when they're calling me a Russian bot? That actually makes a lot of sense. I feel like I live the same day every day, and all I do is go to the bread factory to make some bougie asshole rich.

But Wikipedia still calls the Dead Internet Theory a "conspiracy theory". smh

Bourff , in EU Data Regulator Threatens Meta's 'Pay or Okay' Model

FB is not the only site that does that, others have been doing that shit for years, and I believe it had been okay'd by regulators before (sadly). But good if that's coming to an end.

MrMcGasion , in HelloKitty ransomware rebrands, releases CD Projekt and Cisco data

The article doesn't mention a reason for the rebrand, but it would be kinda funny if they rebranded because they got a cease and desist and even ransomware devs are scared of Japanese IP lawyers.
