Netflix Cracks Down on Password Sharing, AI Legal Research Gone Wrong, Fake Identities and Surveillance Firms

Netflix plans to crack down on the widespread practice of password sharing among households. We discuss their new verification feature and its impact on user experience and security.

A lawyer finds himself in hot water after relying on ChatGPT for legal research. We investigate the consequences of referencing non-existent legal cases, the lawyer’s claim of unawareness about the AI’s potential for false information, and the broader concerns surrounding the risks of AI, including misinformation and bias.

Threat intelligence firms are using fake online personas to gather data on Discord, Reddit, WhatsApp, and other apps. Watchdog groups have raised concerns about the potential violation of civil liberties and lack of oversight of this activity.
