Belgian bread bag cyberwareness campaign

You’ve heard of ransomware, deepfake scams, and business email compromise. But what about bread bag cybercrime awareness? 🥖

In Belgium, police have taken to printing cybersecurity tips on bakery bags. Yes, really. Forget TikTok or Instagram ads, this is crime prevention via a crusty sourdough.

That's a good one❤️

A screenshot of TOS About website, showing a list of companies in a left sidebar, and a human friendly summary of their terms and conditions on the right, highlighting the good, the bad and the ugly, with a grade. In this example, Adobe has a 1/7. Companies are rated using emojis, from poo emoji to puking, and being sick emoji.

Do people read the terms and conditions before clicking accept?
I assume most don't, and even when we do, those are digest. TOSAbout is a list of company terms and conditioned, explained in simple language, to understand how shady those are, before you click “accept”

Crimson Memo: Analyzing the Privacy Impact of Xianghongshu AKA Red Note Early in January 2025 it seemed like TikTok was on the verge of being banned by the U.S. government. In reaction to this imminent ban, several million people in the United States signed up for a diffe...

During our analysis of RedNote, we found that the app requests some very sensitive permissions, including location information, even when the app is not running in the foreground. This permission is not requested by other similar apps such as TikTok, Facebook, or Instagram.

The courts have once again ignored the demands of millions of Americans by thwarting sensible federal net neutrality regulations. That means Congress and the states must step in to preserve a free and open internet, EFF’s Corynne McSherry wrote in The Well News.

They will go after Wikipedia.

They will go after libraries.

They will go after school boards and public extracurricular activities that are anything but sports.

They will go after archives.

VICTORY! Federal Court (Finally) Rules Backdoor Searches of 702 Data Unconstitutional Better late than never: last night a federal district court held that backdoor searches of databases full of Americans’ private communications collected under Section 702 ordinarily require a warrant....

VICTORY! After over a decade, a federal court has declared that warrantless backdoor searches of US person’s communications collected under Section 702 of FISA is unconstitutional.

The rage I feel at the decades in which everyone brushed off and downplayed these companies as "social media" and failed to see these private companies for what they were: transnational communications platforms for online speech, a new vector of power, a vacuum waiting for nature to take hold

It's an excellent time for a quick look at a network of 32 content farm accounts that have been attempting to build an audience through "fun" image posts (and good old-fashioned bulk following), apparently in order to sell random crap on Amazon.
