Bypassing AI guardrails is so easy a script kiddie can do it

The malware/info stealer chat groups I'm in bank on these bypasses to generate juicy .py scripts which do fun things

CEO rubs me the wrong way

Our 65yr old company CEO watches nudie flix in his office with the door open while employees walk past his office multiple times per day. His arm will suddenly be erected from under his desk when I or an employee walks by. Safe to say he is "rubbing one out" as we used to say and this has been going on for a decade. Everytime I RDP into his desktop I hold my breathe as i previously witnessed a browser with 50 tabs open of fun lady videos.

Utah tells porn sites to take the P out of VPNs, and it's their fault that they can't

47ufCapacitor

Make laws first, deal of consequences later. The current administration and its party cannot extrapolate basic reasoning in any decision.

Normal business clients use VPN to connect to office, these idiotic laws supposed to deter people from working?

Does anyone in Utah grasp the concept of the purpose of VPN to tie into a LAN on another network?

PCPcat

PCPcat was his Telegram handle. Interesting fellow. I was chatting with him during this campaign. We shared video captures of our dev work. He showed me terminal of his working of the React exploit, getting python script to execute asynchronously.

He shared with me a root dns file that was 70GB in size he used to reiterate domains.

Last i spoke to him i offered to help him spend his loot sometime in the future but never replied :(

Age verification isn't sage verification when it's inside operating systems

47ufCapacitor

Only remotely possible and secure if

The gov needs to come up with a new identifier for every human, like the famous social security number, that can be used in html input fields or an operating system variable to post to a public gov web service that has one method which returns a bit value if of age. No personal info can be exposed other than if one is of age.

AI finally delivers those elusive productivity gains... for cybercriminals

I can vouch

I’ve utilized Ai to assist in some dirty legacy code projects that saved us some months of dev time and headaches.

I’ve also witnessed fraudsters in numerous Telegram group chats who not all can code but have leveraged Ai to provide themselves with Python, C++ and Rust and Go applications to infiltrate databases and encrypt remote drives for ransom. The screenshots these guys share for proof are quite more monetarily mindblowing than my work screenshots.

Crims disconnect Wired subscribers from their privacy, publish deets online

47ufCapacitor

I grabbed the 2.3 M records out of curiosity and found a row with my email but that was it for personal info, oh and i subscribed to wired in 2025. A majority of these records had null fields in columns for [address] and no columns credential related.

As CISA braces for more cuts, threat intel sharing takes a hit

A close contact of mine has a son who works at San Diego Fbi office cyber division, he has been spending chunks of his days on foot looking for immigrants. Doesnt bode well for our defense when valuable resources improperly used like this.

Rackspace customers rage as email outage continues and migrations create migraines

Worse than a clingy girlfriend

We use Rackspace and absolutely hate calling in problems. Nobody in our office can understand their techs with heavy India accent. Recently, numerous calls from India people asking to take a survey, or to respond to a spam ticket. Indians would call me every frickin day from a San Antonio number. Last week had an English speaking product manager email me about our services and I told him to tell his associates to leave me the hell alone and stop calling me literally all the time.
