No timestamp anymore? No marker to indicate a tweet has been edited? Sounds like a misinformation engine firing up to the next level.

Twitter/X no longer states if a tweet has been edited.

Huge heads up on PayPal Twitter Tip Jar. If you send a person a tip using PayPal, when the receiver opens up the receipt from the tip you sent, they get your *address*. Just tested to confirm by tipping @yashar on Twitter w/ PayPal and he did in fact get my address I tipped him.

Here’s how I used AI to clone a 60 Minutes correspondent’s voice to trick a colleague into handing over her passport number. I cloned Sharyn’s voice then manipulated the caller ID to show Sharyn’s name with a spoofing tool. The hack took 5 minutes total for me to steal the info.

60 Minutes hired an ethical hacker to show how easy it is to be scammed. She conned our unsuspecting colleague using artificial intelligence. cbsn.ws/3MOhmia

2 years ago on stage I was asked “when will Deepfake video/audio impact trust & be believable in social engineering?” My response then was that we were 2 years away from undetectable Deepfakes. I wish my prediction then was wrong. We need synthetic media detection + labels ASAP.

And here we are 5 years later and I still feel the same way about consumer DNA tests, and apparently the entire board of 23andMe now agrees. Massive yikes incoming.

To reach the ~youth~ we're going to have to make infosec sea shanties, aren't we? Guess so! Behold the tale of kid who reuses their passwords & ends up pwn'd, then learns how to stay safe. We're on a mission to encourage unique passwords stored in a password manager with MFA on.

Heard back and confirming the channel will remain terminated for {insert termination reason & link to specific policy's help center article}. You can also read through the email sent for more info on the policy. We know this wasn't the outcome you were hoping for, but really

LinkedIn is now using everyone's content to train their AI tool -- they just auto opted everyone in. I recommend opting out now (AND that orgs put an end to auto opt-in, it's not cool) Opt out steps: Settings and Privacy > Data Privacy > Data for Generative AI Improvement (OFF)

Above you can see the receipt @yashar sent me when I did this test with him. Be careful using PayPal Twitter Tip Jar — this is a hallmark of PayPal rather than Twitter of course but it impacts Twitter users who may not know that their address is leaked by PayPal to tip receivers.
