☆ Cybersecurity professionals say generative AI can be exploited in cyberattacks — but it can also be a powerful defense
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-07 | by ( Rosalie Chan | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

Generative AI is revolutionizing cybersecurity in connected networks. Generative AI has become a double-edged sword for the security of connected networks. On one hand, generative AI can speed up cybersecurity problems, making it easier and cheaper for bad actors to conduct identity attacks. Business Insider spoke with several cybersecurity professionals who attended the annual RSA conference this week in San Francisco about how generative AI is increasingly used in cybersecurity for 5G devices and networks. Now that mobile and Internet of Things devices have become more ubiquitous, they're using even more data, which generative AI can help filter and secure.

Chris Pine said that "The Princess Diaries 2" was a major turning point in his career. The actor said that he had overdrafted his bank account before learning he would be paid $65,000. AdvertisementIf you would describe "The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement" as an "earth-shattering," life-changing film, you're not alone — Chris Pine would say the same, but for likely different reasons. With a Shonda Rhimes-penned screenplay, it's delightful — and if we're lucky, maybe we'll get a "Princess Diaries 3." Pine told Geist in the preview clip that he felt like booking the film represented the moment when he truly "started working."

Second, it could have been Buffett's investment deputies Todd Combs and Ted Weschler who trimmed the Apple stake in order to fund other purchases. There's a chance that Buffett might reveal at the annual meeting the mystery bank stock that Berkshire has been buying for two quarters straight . Berkshire now owns more than 70 million of the tracking stock. "You need higher prices, or it doesn't work," Buffett said at Berkshire's 2023 annual meeting.

☆ FCC fines big phone companies nearly $200 million for sharing customer location data

The FCC fined four US network providers nearly $200 million for illegally sharing customer data. AdvertisementThe Federal Communications Commission fined four US wireless carriers close to $200 million for illegally sharing access to customers' location data. The FCC said on Monday that these phone companies sold customers' location data to "aggregators," who resold access to the data to companies that provide location-based services. The FCC said dozens of location-based services accessed phone companies' customer data without ensuring consumer consent, even after the phone companies were aware of the links. In response to the FCC fines, all three phone providers said they expect to appeal the decision.

☆ FCC fines wireless carriers millions for sharing user locations without consent
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-29 | by ( Brian Fung | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +4 min

Washington CNN —The US government has issued millions of dollars in fines to AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon after an investigation found the nation’s top wireless carriers had illegally shared customers’ personal data without their consent. The fines target a practice in which carriers shared user location information with data resellers, known in the industry as “location aggregators.” These aggregators passed the data onward to their own third-party customers. “Each carrier attempted to offload its obligations to obtain customer consent onto downstream recipients of location information, which in many instances meant that no valid customer consent was obtained,” the FCC said in a release. In response to the FCC fines, all of the wireless carriers said they expect to appeal the decision. We take our responsibility to keep customer data secure very seriously and have always supported the FCC’s commitment to protecting consumers, but this decision is wrong, and the fine is excessive.

Still, the company is under such close scrutiny that it would be a poor candidate to buy TikTok, experts say. If you were to tell me it’s Verizon, or AT&T, maybe it’s not as big of a problem.”Jasmine Enberg, principal analyst at Emarketer, highlighted a paradox: Only the largest, most dominant tech giants may have the resources to buy TikTok. Microsoft had been one of the handful of contenders to buy TikTok in 2020 when President Donald Trump first pushed for a sale. A former Trump Cabinet official enters the frayIn a move that caught many by surprise, former Trump Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin announced last month that he is putting together a team of investors to buy TikTok. As with Mnuchin, O’Leary has said a potential acquisition of TikTok may have to exclude TikTok’s algorithm.

☆ F.C.C. Votes to Restore Net Neutrality Rules
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-25 | by ( Cecilia Kang | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

Known as net neutrality, the regulations were first put in place nearly a decade ago under the Obama administration and are aimed at preventing internet service providers like Verizon or Comcast from blocking or degrading the delivery of services from competitors like Netflix and YouTube. The rules were repealed under former President Donald J. Trump, and have proven a contentious partisan issue over the years while pitting tech giants against broadband providers. The rules also give the F.C.C. the ability to demand broadband providers report and respond to outages, as well as expand the agency’s oversight of the providers’ security issues. and a Democrat, said the rules reflect the importance of high-speed internet as the main mode of communications for many Americans.

☆ Net neutrality is back as FCC votes to regulate internet providers
▼ + stars: | 2024-04-25 | by ( Brian Fung | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +6 min

The net neutrality regulations adopted Thursday by the Federal Communications Commission prohibit providers such as AT&T, Comcast and Verizon from selectively speeding up, slowing down or blocking users’ internet traffic. And for the first time, the FCC said it would step in to override state or local policies that conflict with the federal net neutrality rule. “The Title II authority will ensure that broadband providers are properly overseen by the FCC like all telecommunications services should be. “These 400-plus pages of relentless regulation are proof positive that old orthodoxies die hard,” said Jonathan Spalter, CEO of USTelecom, a trade association representing internet providers. As a result, the outcome of a legal challenge to the FCC’s net neutrality rules could have potentially broad ramifications for other US regulatory bodies, not just the FCC.
