I started to make a point of using dehumanizing language when talking about GenAI. Those systems don't think, they calculate. They don't write, they generate.

It is a computer, with software. Not a person with feelings. Stop anthropomorphising GenAI.

LinkedIn Is Illegally Searching Your Computer

Microsoft is running one of the largest corporate espionage operations in modern history. Every time any of LinkedIn’s one billion users visits linkedin.com, hidden code searches their computer for installed software, collects the results, and transmits them to LinkedIn’s servers and to third-party companies including an American-Israeli cybersecurity firm. The user is never asked. Never told. LinkedIn’s privacy policy does not mention it. Because LinkedIn knows each user’s real name, employer, and job title, it is not searching anonymous visitors. It is searching identified people at identified companies. Millions of companies. Every day. All over the world.

AI may revive old-school tradecraft even as it transforms intelligence work

As electronic messages get harder to trust, human meetings will become more important than ever, a former CIA agent argues.

Findes der europæriske alternativer til feks visa og Mastercard der modtages internationalt?

Jeg syntes vi ser flere og flere historier som disse, og jeg tænker på, hvornår rammer det danmark, fordi vi ikke vil lege med i den nuværende amerikanske præsidents planer om Grønland?
