Reddit has begun requiring users in the United Kingdom to verify their age, part of a broader effort to comply with new regulations aimed at shielding minors from harmful online content. This policy change follows the passage of the U.K.’s Online Safety Act (OSA), which imposes stricter obligations on digital platforms to ensure children can’t easily access adult material. Under the new rules, Reddit must take concrete steps to prevent young users from encountering explicit sexual content, posts encouraging self-harm or disordered eating, and any material that incites hatred against individuals based on race, religion, gender, sexuality, or disability. To…
Meta recently resolved a security flaw that could have allowed users of its AI chatbot to view the private prompts and generated content of other people. Sandeep Hodkasia, who leads the security research firm AppSecure, discovered the issue late last year. He reported it to Meta on December 26, 2024, and the company awarded him a $10,000 bug bounty for the responsible disclosure. According to Hodkasia, Meta addressed the vulnerability by January 24, 2025, and confirmed there was no indication anyone had exploited the problem maliciously. The flaw came to light while Hodkasia was reviewing how Meta AI lets users…
Meta recently addressed a security flaw that left users’ private AI prompts and generated content exposed to anyone who knew where to look. Sandeep Hodkasia, who runs the security research firm AppSecure, discovered the issue and reported it privately in late December 2024. As a reward for responsibly disclosing the problem, Meta paid Hodkasia $10,000 through its bug bounty program. According to Hodkasia, he spotted the flaw while analyzing how Meta AI enables logged-in users to tweak or regenerate the text and images produced by the chatbot. Each time a user edited a prompt, Meta’s servers assigned that prompt and…
When Joe Scheidler was helping to launch the White House’s cybersecurity office in 2022, he faced a reality common to many in government: decisions often relied on a jumble of spreadsheets, legacy systems, and institutional memory. Meanwhile, his future co-founder Joseph Farsakh was at the State Department working on sensitive peace negotiations in Yemen. The two found themselves frequently discussing how the emerging power of large language models might reshape public policy work itself. From those conversations, the idea for Helios was born—a startup committed to building an AI-powered operating system for public policy, regulatory, legal, and compliance professionals. To…
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has issued an urgent warning that hackers are actively exploiting a severe security flaw in Citrix NetScaler, a product used by countless businesses and government agencies to facilitate secure remote access to internal networks and applications. Security experts have nicknamed this new vulnerability “Citrix Bleed 2” because of its similarities to a critical flaw discovered last year. Like its predecessor, this bug can be remotely leveraged to steal sensitive credentials from vulnerable NetScaler appliances. Once obtained, those credentials can provide attackers with deep access into an organization’s network. On Thursday, CISA released…
On Thursday, developer Maurice Kleine launched Mockly, a new web application designed to create realistic-looking fake chat screenshots across popular messaging platforms. Whether you see it as a fun tool for memes or a potential vector for confusion, Mockly is bound to make waves online. Generating phony direct messages isn’t a new concept—such tools have existed since the early days of messaging apps. However, they’ve typically been clunky, riddled with sketchy ads, or just outright difficult to use. Anyone who has searched online for a “fake iMessage generator” has likely stumbled across sites filled with deceptive download links and potential…
