This week, Steve and Leo discuss the recent 'Salt Typhoon' hack of U.S. telecom providers by China, TPM 2.0 requirement for Windows 11, Microsoft's newly hacked Windows activation system, Apple patenting AI facial and body recognition, and much more. Steve also shares an intriguing conversation he had with the ChatGPT 4o AI system while working on an update to GRC's DNS Benchmark tool. • All telecom providers have been hacked and may still not be safe to use. So now the government is recommending that we use our own encrypted communications. • The plan to obsolete all non-TPM 2.0 PCs remains well underway. Microsoft must be feeling the heat, so they're taking time to not apologize. • Whoops. Microsoft's product activation system has been fully hacked. All Windows and Office products may now be easily activated without any licensing. • Here come the AI patents. Apple patents AI recognizing people by what they're wearing after earlier seeing their faces and noting what they're wearing. • Zoom wasn't encrypting their early video conferencing. They're still trying to get out from under the mess their lies created for them. • AWS introduces physical data terminal locations where users can go to perform massive data transfers to and from the cloud. • The FTC has set its sights on data brokers. Let's hope something comes of it. • GRC's email finally gets BIMI. (Can you see the Ruby-G logo?) • Lot's a terrific listener feedback about authenticator policy, a new and free point-to-point link service, Tor's "Snowflake", linking PCs and Smartphones, and even recharging spent SodaStream canisters. • Then we look at a recent conversation Steve had with "ChatGPT 4o with canvas" and the new plan that resulted Show Notes - https://www.grc.com/sn/SN-1004-Notes.pdf Hosts: Steve Gibson and Leo Laporte Download or subscribe to Security Now at https://twit.tv/shows/security-now.

Steve Gibson and Leo Laporte discuss Microsoft's clarification about AI training data usage, a fascinating breakthrough in understanding autonomous vehicle vulnerabilities, and an urgent call for help from the Tor Network. The show culminates in an in-depth exploration of NASA's incredible Voyager 1 mission, which continues to communicate with Earth from nearly a light-day away despite increasing technical challenges. • Microsoft clarifies they are NOT using customer data from Office apps to train AI models • "Digital epileptic seizures" caused by flashing emergency vehicle lights can confuse automated driving systems, posing crash risks • Tor Network issues urgent call for volunteers to run new WebTunnel bridges to circumvent censorship in Russia • Zello asks its 140 million users to change passwords as a precautionary measure, hinting at a possible data breach • FTC opens broad antitrust investigation into Microsoft's business practices across software, cloud, cybersecurity, and AI • New Android scareware tactic simulates a seriously cracked and malfunctioning smartphone screen • Steve argues it's likely safe to leave Wireguard VPN ports open, but he prefers not to out of an abundance of caution • Research shows AI training on AI-generated content can lead to homogeneity and loss of diversity in outputs • Australia passes world-first law banning children under 16 from social media, with hefty fines for non-compliant platforms • NASA's Voyager 1 probe, nearly a light-day from Earth, resumes operations after a communications scare but faces mounting technical challenges as it nears the end of its life Show Notes - https://www.grc.com/sn/SN-1003-Notes.pdf Hosts: Steve Gibson and Leo Laporte Download or subscribe to Security Now at https://twit.tv/shows/security-now.
