Today is the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landing at #Normandy, #France, where ~160k #Allied troops pulled off the largest invasion by sea in history. From that point on #America was in charge of #AlliedForces & it was the beginning of the end of #WWII
#Russia President Vladimir #Putin was not invited due to the invasion of #Ukraine which is somewhat ironic since back in 1944 the Soviet Union was one of the #allied countries fighting Germany. Of course, it wasn't long after the war that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization ( #NATO ) was formed to provide a formal, ongoing #alliance to assure the collective #security of its members in the wake of Soviet machinations in Eastern Europe & Berlin.
I'm waiting for the first #microsoft employees to come out and share how, after hearing from management that they should always prioritize #security, they were met with apathy or resistance when they actually did try to escalate what kind of a privacy and security debacle #recall was turning out to be.
The new wave of LLM-based AI is very much like Viagra. Originally invented to treat high blood pressure and angina, it was discovered that Viagra could help with reluctant boners. I'll let you work out whether this analogy is good or bad, but I'll just say I'm seeing a lot of dick waving when it comes to AI....
Republican Sen. Lankford: A top Republican told me that if I try to move a bill that solves the border crisis during this election year, he will do whatever he can to DESTROY me. He said, ‘I do not want you to solve this during the presidential election’ 🚨
Republican fascists threaten deadly force if any measure to improve our border security.
A 2nd #Trump admin could #weaponize existing government agencies to dismantle democracy itself.
This article is part of “Project 2025: The Plot Against #America,” a Nation special issue devoted to unpacking the right’s vast & chilling program for a 2nd Trump term.
In the section on the #DHS …there’s a plan to eliminate the ability of the agency that monitors #ElectionSecurity to prevent the spread of #disinformation about voting & #vote counting.
…Think back to Nov 2020, when #Trump was developing his #BigLie about the #election he’d lost. Trump’s false assertion the election had been characterized by “massive improprieties & fraud” was tripped up by #ChrisKrebs, who served as dir of the #Cybersecurity & Infrastructure #Security Agency (#CISA) in the DHS.
The Republican appointee & his team had established a 24/7 “war room” to work w/ofcls across the country to monitor threats to the #security & integrity of the #election. The operation was so meticulous that #Krebs could announce after the voting was finished: “America, we have confidence in the security of your vote, you should, too.” …his coordinating team declared, “The Nov 3rd election was the most secure in American history.” This infuriated #Trump, who immediately fired…[Krebs].
It just clicked in my brain. What I haven't been able to articulate about why I'm so anxious about #Windows Recall. I'm sure others have already gotten to where I am.
It's worse than "a system that tracks everything you do" and stores that info in a basic database that could be easily compromised.
It's worse than a nanny surveillance tool for companies to spy on their employees.
It's inescapable.
It doesn't matter if I make a dozen "how to disable recall" tutorials. The second YOUR data shows up on someone ELSE'S screen, it's in THEIR recall database.
It won't matter if you're a master #security expert specialist. You can't account for EVERY other computer you've ever interacted with. If a family member looks up an old email with your personal data in it, your data is now at risk.
If THEIR system is compromised YOUR data is at risk.
I just went from "vague feeling of unease" to "actively writing templates to canvas elected officials, regulators, and attorneys general."
