UK users of Reddit, X, Insta, FB, Bluesky, TikTok, and many other popular platforms are now facing problems. They are being forced to verify their age using government issued IDs and a selfie. All of these for-profit corporations may use this information further for profit or may not even store user information securely. This is a nightmare scenario for many, and I wouldn't be surprised if other governments adopt similar laws.

If any random app asks for government issued IDs with a selfie, it's a major red flag. 🚩 Do not provide them. Please share this warning with all your friends/family. You should only provide government issued ID when it's for something critical, such as: * Getting a passport * Obtaining a citizenship card * Acquiring a driving license * Opening bank accounts Any other request for your ID by any app will likely lead to it being leaked or sold, putting everyone at risk. It's a sad reality

The Tea app is vibe-coded and has over 4 million users. Users' private data was breached, and all government-issued verification IDs, photos, and private messages were leaked. This is why you need a good team of experienced developers, IT and infosec folks to secure your infrastructures. You can’t just vibe code using AI and get away with poor jobs. Now they are going to use the same shity AI in government and everywhere and we will see more such things. What a mess

Intel pull out of Germany, Poland, and Costa Rica as new CEO shrinks the company by a third. They are firing 24000 employees this year 😱

The Verge

Intel is laying off 24,000 employees and retreating from some countries

Tens of thousands of people are losing their jobs.

I am not sure if we will see any Intel production in next 10 years and eventually open source oses like Linux or BSD will drop support too if they go completely out of business.

My IT career spans back to the days we FTP'd straight to production. Pretty sure my first gray hair sprouted right then. And that, my friends, is how you know you're seasoned 🤣

The happiest IT or developer folks I know are all retired ones. I don't think it is a coincidence.

Never obsolete? That is a bold statement computer, from the 2000s. 🫣

The Danish government is to clamp down on the creation and dissemination of AI-generated deepfakes by changing copyright law to ensure that everybody has the right to their own body, facial features and voice. The Danish government said on Thursday it would strengthen protection against digital imitations of people’s identities with what it believes to be the first law of its kind in Europe

This is unpopular opinion, but for Firefox to live, Mozilla, as it currently operates, needs to die. They forgot their core user base hates cloud and AI features. They want a simple browser that connects to web servers and displays pages. Meanwhile, executive are getting fat salaries and bounces while begging users for money on AI and other privacy intrusion projects like adding perplexity directly to Firefox. They lost their vision long time ago.
