'A ransomware cyberattack on one of Barcelona’ s main hospitals has crippled the center’s computer system and forced the cancellation of 150 nonurgent operations and up to 3,000 patient checkups, officials said Monday.

'The attack Sunday on the Hospital Clinic de Barcelona shut down computers at the facility’s laboratories, emergency room and pharmacy at three main centers and several external clinics'.

Disgusting.

@briankrebs reports that T-Mobile appears to have been breached more than 100 times in 2022 by hacker groups providing SIM-swapping-as-a-service. The groups actively phish T-Mobile employees in an attempt to gain access to internal company tools. When successful, the groups take to Telegram channels and post "tmo up," signaling that a window has opened for customers to order SIM swaps against targets.

Not surprisingly, T-Mobile isn't saying anything useful in response. This report isn't likely to give T-Mobile users a warm fuzzy feeling.

Reddit: "My friend is in university and taking a history class. The professor is using ChatGPT to write essays on the history topics and the students need to mark up its essays and point out where ChatGPT is wrong and correct it."

Honestly, this is great! The students learn to check sources, discover that ChatGPT is unreliable, *and* can't use it to generate essay question answers for them, all at the same time!
