It's not sustainable to pay for every newsletter and Patreon you want to support. I subscribe to MANY and I am going to have to unsubscribe to some because it is costing me thousands of dollars a year (over $3000). More collectivist options need to be developed.

AI is not conscious but it sure does love to use the words "juicy" and "leak" when talking about security breaches. 🙃

If they hadn’t burned all the witches and midwives back in the day, we’d probably know more about perimenopause and menopause right now. We know fuck all about a condition that half the population goes through because men are a bunch of plonkers*

We never share any images, but remember what compels Palestinians (including journalists) to have to share images of their suffering. We are responsible for that appetite. It’s our appetite they’re having to appeal to. And they don’t want to. Contemplate what a reasonable response to that is
If we work together everyone can find a space to help in.

If you want to share but can't tolerate graphic imagery, calling it gore feels cruel to the martyred and the suffering of people, then follow someone like @divyampersaud.com who shares hourly with illustrations and links.

Folks might not know a lot of people are getting *very* upset that the materials they request are not available in the libraries/archives they're requesting from.

We're getting lots here at the Library of Virginia: requests of documents likely surfaced by large language models that *do not exist*.

I was featured in a UK documentary about stalkerware, an insidious kind of phone surveillance I've investigated for years.

In this deep-dive for this.weekinsecurity.com, I look back at what I've learned during my investigations, why stalkerware is a global threat, and what actually gives me hope.
I've investigated 'stalkerware' for five years. Here's what I've learned
Stalkerware is a pervasive surveillance used by millions around the world, but these operations keep getting hacked and leaking victims' private phone data.
