Today in InfoSec Job Security News:

I was looking into an obvious ../.. vulnerability introduced into a major web framework today, and it was committed by username Claude on GitHub. Vibe coded, basically.

So I started looking through Claude commits on GitHub, there’s over 2m of them and it’s about 5% of all open source code this month.

As I looked through the code I saw the same class of vulns being introduced over, and over, again - several a minute.

in 2017 a popular twitter game was to type a partial phrase then see what your phone auto-completes it with.

this proved so popular that it is now the only business model in the US.

passed to me from a minnesotan on the ground in minneapolis, boiled down into bullet points

-- people are hiding others in their houses now.

-- ICE is following white people home from the store if they think they might be buying food for someone else.

-- ICE is supposed to be switching to night raids soon to avoid observers.

-- it's generally understood that if you're detained it's a mugging and if you're raided it's an armed robbery because they WILL steal your shit. phones are #1 obviously so they can find more victims, but anything they can steal and sell, they will. pass this on if you have anyone to pass it onto. i have been explicitly given the "PLEASE DO" of sharing on this. social media has slowed down not because it's gotten better but because people have gotten tired or bored and minnesotans are too busy fighting back and trying to survive.

I can't validate if this is true but I've heard that if you want to return *any* Ring camera you have, no matter how old, citing their agreement with Flock as a violation of the terms of service, you'll get the refund approved.

Technerds, feel encouraged to drop alternatives folk in the comments, please.

While Mandelson and Andrew are important stories in the UK, I feel like most UK media are currently missing the big picture. Which is that the Epstein-Thiel-Bannon-Russia network has essentially been conspiring to destroy western democratic institutions. Andrew and Mandleson are disgusting cogs in that bigger machine. Seen v. few headlines mentioning Thiel directly over here.

Fact of the day: the Ford Edsel ("a 1950s flop so notorious that it’s taught in business schools to this day") outsold the Cybertruck 2:1, "in a country with half the population."
