A couple of days ago, LockBit had published an entry on their leaksite titled "telekom.com". I asked the Telekom press corps and they denied any incident.

Yesterday, LB also published the data allegedy from Telekom. I had a look at the files. So far, it seems that nothing in the 1.2GByte directory on their file share has anything to do with Deutsche Telekom. It seems that in fact, they breached a client PC owned by a non-profit in Hamburg.

@christopherkunz lol, classic. I used to work for a telco, we would get threat actors who thought any customer IP in our address space was us.

@gabboman no, DuckDuckGo is just a front end for Bing

Google search thinks you should use glue to stick together a pizza as its AI is trained on Reddit, where 11 years ago a user called “fucksmith” posted suggesting it was a good idea.

It is worth noting that the Recall feature is only going to work on newfangled PCs with that special NPU chip. So for now, a reasonable defense is to... not buy one of those laptops

My favourite trope is people saying “you can’t do that, it’s against the law! GDPR!” to big tech companies… as they steal the world’s copyrighted material to train AI, run Washington DC, count almost every EU data regulator as email customers and fund anti-trans political candidates for commercial gain.

People think they’re holding spears but instead they’re armed with plastic forks from a chip shop.

"...a would-be hacker would need to gain physical access to your device, unlock it and sign in before they could access saved screenshots."

I've got some news for Microsoft about how domestic abuse works.

@evacide also malware. Infostealers that access local password managers in browsers don’t need physical access, to unlock it or sign in - and they’re a huge problem.

@SteveSyfuhs does it? I can’t recall seeing that

For those who aren’t aware, Microsoft have decided to bake essentially an infostealer into base Windows OS and enable by default.

From the Microsoft FAQ: “Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers."

Info is stored locally - but rather than something like Redline stealing your local browser password vault, now they can just steal the last 3 months of everything you’ve typed and viewed in one database.

The UK’s ICO have opened an investigation into Copilot+ Recall. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cpwwqp6nx14o

@ditol it is baked into Windows OS on those devices (which are available for order).

Copilot+ Recall has been enabled by default globally in Microsoft Intune managed users, for businesses.

You need to enable DisableAIDataAnalysis to switch it off. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/client-management/manage-recall

Two quick updates -

A) if you disallow recording of a website in Control Panel or GPO, in Chrome it is still recorded - disallow recording only works in Edge browser

B) Firefox and Tor Browser is recorded always, including in private mode - the exception is Hollywood DRM’d videos

    @demiurg I agree. But I also think they don’t care, too.
