An ecrime group has somehow gained access to 75k Fortinet firewall devices - dubbed Fortibleed

I’ve verified the data is real. They’ve been dumping the Fortinet config - not sure how yet - and then cracking the passwords it appears. Data is being resold online. #fortibleed

Microsoft’s terms of service said Copilot was “for entertainment purposes only.”

An Nvidia executive said AI is more expensive than humans.

Google argued in German court that everyone knows they can’t trust AI.

Here’s an easter egg in the new Lego Batman that I think all of yourwill REALLY appreciate.

It’s so good, I had to make a video.

Outside the AI bubble, a backlash has been brewing for some time
— and not only among students booing pro-AI commencement speakers.

Just 10 percent of Americans say they're thrilled about the future of AI, a Pew poll found in March;

that same month, some 80 percent of registered U.S. voters in an NBC poll said neither Democrats nor Republicans are doing a good job on the AI front.

That number also appears in an April survey of white-collar workers:
80 percent are straight-up refusing to use AI even when it's mandated.
In the last 30 days, 54 percent of workers reported bypassing company AI tools and completing jobs themselves.

Those numbers suggest general strike-levels of discontent with AI across every industry, out there in the real America beyond Silicon Valley and Wall Street, if not an outright revolutionary mood.

Data center protests, fueled by the 70 percent of Americans who say they don't want data centers near them, are only likely to grow going forward
— especially now that they are producing tangible results.

At least 48 data center projects were blocked or delayed in 2025, according to Data Center Watch,
and the fight is only getting more fierce.
