I'm working on several stories about some important evolutions in cybercrime, but it's been really hard to dedicate time and attention to those with the current administration creating constitutional challenges almost on a daily basis, and doing all kinds of things that will surely weaken the cybersecurity and national security of this country.

But I can't even visit LinkedIn anymore, because I just want to vomit when I see the endless stream of people in the tech industry whistling dixie and pimping their businesses like nothing's going on. Like any of that matters if you don't have a democracy anymore.

Anyway, it's frustrating because this all out, constant assault on the checks and balances to executive power has the added benefit to our adversaries of turning our attention inward, and paying far less attention to external threats.

A reminder that "executive orders" are exactly that - orders from the president for the executive branch. They are not laws, and they do not directly bind anyone not in the executive branch of the US government. They might affect how laws are enforced and other things the executive branch does that affect private individuals, but they are not "orders" that private individuals (or organizations) are required to obey.
Just a reminder that Executive Orders are not laws.

Meta is now valued at $1.8 trillion.

Mark Zuckerberg is the world's second richest person. Yet Mark authorized stealing books and other media to train AI. He says an individual's work such as books or videos doesn’t matter. Then why did you steal them? Meta also removed fact-checkers and enabled attacks on minorities and ended DEI policies. Meta just announced firing 3,600 employees. You are 2nd richest person with zero moral compass.

We train journalists to use Advanced Data Protection to better secure their iCloud accounts. What the U.K. is proposing is to make journalists (also… you know, everyone) less secure. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/02/07/apple-encryption-backdoor-uk/
U.K. orders Apple to let it spy on users’ encrypted accounts

Secret order requires blanket access to protected cloud backups around the world, which if implemented would undermine Apple’s privacy pledge to its users.
