🇬🇧Public pressure works: Belgium, Finland & Czechia will NOT approve the #ChatControl mass surveillance law in October. But other governments whose vote is crucial are still on the fence. Urge them to protect our digital privacy and encryption now: https://www.patrick-breyer.de/en/posts/chat-control/#WhatYouCanDo

On this podcast, I explain the EU's #ChatControl plan: mandatory scanning of ALL private messages. This is unprecedented in a democracy. The only other country with a similar system is China—and they use it for political control. #StopScanningMe

1/3 🕵🏽 Looking for updates on the highly criticised and controversial #CSARegulation #ChatControl

@zaufanatrzeciastrona TL;DR: dotyczy to TPM 1.2 w postaci kart dyskretnych i chipów na płycie głównej. Omawiane jest podsłuchiwanie komunikacji TPM z procesorem i odzyskiwanie na tej podstawie kluczy szyfrowania dysku.

We hacked Gemini CLI, Vertex AI, Assistant, and other AI systems by embedding prompts into images that are not visible to users.
When these systems auto-downscale images, the hidden prompts emerge from previously invisible pixel patterns. https://blog.trailofbits.com/2025/08/21/weaponizing-image-scaling-against-production-ai-systems/
@EUCommission This is out of date. Current data for Poland is here: https://sk.gis.gov.pl/kapieliska/mapa
@Bandersnatch @itsfoss Nowhere in the article does it say that GPU drivers are affected.
@panoptykon Teoretycznie istnieje też inne zagrożenie: to pomocnicy mogliby po kryjomu używać SI, nie informując o tym samych polityków.
@GrapheneOS I hate it when people use cool technologies for cringe applications. Blockchain for shitcoins, NFTs for selling JPEGs, neural networks for generating bullshit...
@icd @jarekkopec "wyłączenie dostępu do internetu dla twojej aplikacji klawiatury"
Dokładnie tak.
@panoptykon Mnie martwi to, co jest między wierszami: jeśli czują potrzebę używania SI, to znaczy, że nie mają wspierającego ich zespołu pomocników i specjalistów, którym mogą zadać te pytania.
@noelreports He might use one nuke to make a point, but he's extremely unlikely to start an actual nuclear exchange with US or Europe.
@noelreports I have no words.
