Let's see some jail time for Musk and his collaborators
VICTORY! EFF, our co-counsel and our clients have won our lawsuit against the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. A judge agreed OPM violated the law when it disclosed millions of federal employee records to DOGE agents. The court will decide the remedy at a later date.
We're erasing the soul of our music by snapping everything to this computer grid: rhythm and tempo with quantization, but also melody with pitch correction and auto tune. Let's make music feel alive again. It's something the AI can never take from us. musicalform.substack.com/p/what-is-gr...
Increasingly seeing people getting caught from their chat history. Stop typing your personal info into chatbots... They've straight up admitted they are reading your chats
I wonder how much indictments such as this will further drive the use of open source/weight models to hide illicit activities. “a chatbot account associated with Alfozan’s spouse…submitted prompts…related to building, customizing, installing, audio recording…” www.justice.gov/opa/pr/saudi...
I used to worry about Anthropic's cloud security since it's all vibecoded. But now I realize they've invented a new security model: security-by-velocity. By the time you can find a vulnerability, that code has already been refactored, deleted, and rewritten 30 times www.anthropic.com/engineering/...
Form filling should be a thing of the past

A natively-3d world model like Atlas can do some impressive cinematography. And I foresee those 3d virtual house tour companies going out of business in 3...2...1... www.worldlabs.ai/blog/atlas?u...
Your LG TV is sending 4GB a month of surveillance data of your own home: recorded conversations, nearby wifi devices, OCR of everything shown on the screen. Stop buying smart TVs youtu.be/6IFVTcM28KA
Classic @nytimes.com , spreading lies to try to keep the boomer neoliberals in power.

The "literary diff" concept from @geoffreylitt.com should be built into GitHub and every other code review tool. Make exploring a PR like reading a story. Or make it like a game where it's interactive! www.geoffreylitt.com/2026/07/02/u...
It's like being able to search your browser history, but for everything you do on the computer, even outside the browser. Includes semantic search too, so you don't even need to remember the exact keywords hister.org
