Is AI slowly growing beyond our control, or is that just what the AI companies want us to think? Hacking companies, leaking addresses, deleting databases in seconds… Here are 10 times an AI went rogue (allegedly):

For Palantir CEO Alex Karp, you are a collection of data points, and in Karp’s view the government and Palantir are entitled to scrutinize your personal life down to every purchase, message, location, and transaction. bit.ly/4t9cTZn

Let me explain it like you're 5. Mozilla claims to be a PRIVACY company They then remove the line in pic from their FAQ They then pivot their browser to become an AI browser Now they call out Copilot for privacy malpractice But they still let Copilot exist in their software. Words mean nothing when you're constantly showing the world, through actions, that you don't /really/ give a shit about protecting privacy. This is also called virtue signalling.

We were all born private. Then our parents signed us up for Gmail, and Big Tech spent the next decade building a profile on us before we were old enough to understand what that meant. It doesn't have to start that way for the next generation. #BornPrivate

For some reason, the developers of Counter-Strike made CS:GO available as a separate downloadable app. Maybe they will allow people to licence it separately from CS2? Screenshot by @SteamDB.

LaLiga has been ordering Spanish ISPs to block ~3000 IP addresses almost every weekend. Because Cloudflare IPs are shared, this has been doing massive collateral damage to thousands of legitimate websites, apps, and vital services - all at the whim of a private corporation.

This week, a number of popular VPN Chrome extensions were found to be straight-up harvesting every conversation you have with AI, including ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini, Perplexity, DeepSeek, Claude, etc... The best part? Google STILL hasn't removed these extensions from their store.

Google wants you to use their cloud storage to keep your sensitive data and photos, because they claim it's "secure" and "encrypted". Our pinned tweet says otherwise.
Life is a collection of milestones: the final draft of your thesis, the family vacation video, the handwritten recipe from Grandma. These aren't just files; they're your history. Google Drive ensures life's most precious moments are securely saved, encrypted, and accessible 🛡️ goo.gle/4hIb2qd
