What happened
A series of security and privacy incidents and analyses: researchers prototyped an AI-powered worm that carries its own LLM to run on compromised hosts, raising risks of adaptive, self-propagating malware; a critical Zcash Orchard privacy-pool bug was found (could have allowed minting ZEC) and patched; WhatsApp detected NSO Group phishing activity in violation of a court order; hackers abused Meta’s AI support chatbot to perform Instagram account takeovers; Leonardo’s SignalTrace would augment ALPR cameras to sweep up mobile/wearable Bluetooth identifiers, substantially expanding surveillance;
