I'm sorry.

It's a sad fact that modern day internet service providers basically have to exist as law firms with a tech branch incidentally attached.

Denise (@rahaeli) is no longer active here, but wrote up this outstanding summary of the most important legal obligations. It's everything from DMCA copyright takedown demands to handling CSAM to processing national security letters.

I assume this means Anthropic's bribe check cleared.

Poland and Ukraine have a common enemy — Russia — but a dispute over massacres eight decades ago is increasingly being weaponized in domestic politics on both sides.

Job alert! The Open Tech Fund (OTF) is hiring program managers: https://www.opentech.fund/jobs/working-at-otf/

Say what you will about LinkedIn and all its phony baloney, but it is occasionally useful for discovering friends of known threat actors. Plenty of cybercriminals have IRL LinkedIn profiles, and when you find them LI helpfully suggests a number of other accounts you might be interested in following that it thinks are somehow related to the profile you're looking at. And that's twice now this month that LI has revealed connections between threat actors that I didn't find on my own.

It's wild that we were one or two SCOTUS judge votes away from ICE being authorized to deport any U.S. citizen who was born in America whose parents aren't American citizens.

Seriously f*ck every one of you who voted for Trump in 2016.

And your periodic reminder that Congress has the power to fix this. We are designed as a check on the other branches. We can strip their ability to grant cert. We can cut their appropriation. We can curtail their appellate jurisdiction. I have or am working on legislation to do all of that.

Looks like they're making an American version of the Slow Horses series...

duuuuuumb question but does anyone have any empirical evidence that tools like ublock origin will mitigate/kill/prevent clickfix pop ups? pretty sure I saw a blog about this but I cannot find it

This is important.

No more Safe Harbour, no more Privacy Shield, no more EU-US Data Privacy Framework…

Without an independent FTC, the EU cannot count on data privacy for its citizens properly processed in the US.

A regular reminder that trans rights are human rights.

No one deserves to be subjected to invasive and degrading government-mandated genital inspections.

RE: https://flipboard.social/@newsguyusa/116839456586483617

Remember that the harms here won't be restricted to just trans athletes (who are already extraordinarily rare in top competitive sports).

This gives a permission structure to accuse any and all girls and women who appear "too butch" and drag girls and women into invasive degrading gender inspections.

Everyone is harmed. Everyone.

SCOTUS rules states can ban transgender women and girls from playing on female sports teams. https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25pdf/24-43_2b35.pdf

Red Bull, the scam compound whistleblower and human trafficking survivor whose story I told earlier this year, is struggling to rebuild his life in a new country. He desperately needs tuition funds to keep his student visa, avoid deportation and stay safe.

Anything you can give would go a long way: https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-whistleblower-journey-to-a-cybersecurity-degree (I have vetted this GoFundMe.)

Thank you!

With the US joining the heatwave party alongside our friends in Europe, here's your reminder to change out your AC filters. All that energy spent getting your coils cold won't do any good if you can't push air past them.

New from 404 Media: companies are deliberately making Claude and Codex talk like cavemen because it can curb the skyrocketing cost of AI. The 'caveman' plugin keeps LLM answers very, very brief. Got leaked memo showing it's being used; OpenAI dev contributed code too https://www.404media.co/companies-are-making-claude-and-codex-talk-like-cavemen-to-stop-ais-soaring-costs/

On Lawfare Daily, Kate Klonick and Alan Rozenshtein were joined by Cory Doctorow to discuss his new book “The Reverse Centaur's Guide to Life After AI," what the "reverse centaur" is and how it maps onto a broader culture. https://youtu.be/T1KIwaYRs1g
