really wild footage from a city meeting last week where the council had a person arrested for clapping

They went to the meeting of Emporia, Kansas City Commission to speak out against a proposed hyperscale data center that would sit on 1,000 acres of rural land. @mjgault.bsky.social reports www.404media.co/person-oppos...

i went to a Luddite festival in NYC that was organized entirely off social media to prove you don’t need captive tech platforms (yes, including this one!) to hang out and have a good time. @404media.co 📵

This week @josephcox.bsky.social talks to Mike Yeagley. He introduced parts of the government to the whole idea of commercially sourced location data and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars buying the data. Here's what he discovered: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rN4n...

New: Spotify's AI problem has got so bad that random people are stepping in to track all the slop. There are now multiple sites/leaderboards that people can use to identify “AI artists hiding on Spotify. No bands, no studios, no soul, just machines and melody.” www.404media.co/spotifys-ai-...

Tons of peoples' Claude chats are exposed on Google. Cryptocurrency keys, API keys, login credentials, legal discussions, more. This happened with ChatGPT last year. And Claude too. There's clearly an ongoing issue with search engines indexing peoples' AI chats www.404media.co/tons-of-peop...

Joseph speaks to Mike Yeagley about how he bought the world's location data, and what that means for everyone's privacy and security.

Mike Yeagley spent hundreds of thousands of dollars buying commercially sourced location data. On today's podcast, he tells @josephcox.bsky.social what he discovered, specifically about Grindr and how it became a national security issue. Watch now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rN4n...

Claude users are creating public share links, but probably don't realize that means their chats are now ending up in Google searches where anyone can dig through them.

Spotify doesn’t label AI music on its platform, so websites like SoullessMusic.com and SlopTracker.org do it instead.

"I first met the Luddites a week earlier in Tompkins Square Park, for a press conference hosted by their official spokesperson: a puppet made of garbage." www.404media.co/luddite-even...

As tech backlash hits the mainstream, the ‘Summer of Ludd’ proves we don’t need social media to hang out and have a good time.

404 Media has mapped out this supply of data by reviewing U.S. government procurement records and internal documents. It highlights the sometimes unexpected ways ICE is gaining access to peoples’ personal information. www.404media.co/you-opened-a...
