Hand-picked News
Trump told Netflix it will face “consequences” if it doesn’t remove Susan Rice from its board — right as the company is chasing a huge Warner Bros. Discovery deal.
What you need to know:
Rice, ex-U.N. ambassador, said companies that supported Trump will be held accountable when Democrats return.
Trump fired back, calling her a “political hack” and demanding Netflix act.
Netflix’s Warner Bros. takeover is already under DOJ review, making the timing risky.
This isn’t just about one board seat — it’s politics colliding with business strategy.
⚠️ So what: Netflix is in a tough spot. If it caves, it sets a precedent for political leaders shaping corporate boards. If it resists, its big merger could get even messier.
👀 Tip: Watch DOJ signals — regulators may use this moment to flex on Netflix’s acquisition plans.
Google's Threat Intelligence team documented hackers actively using AI tools like Gemini for attacks.
AI profiles targets instantly. Hackers scan the internet for job roles and company hierarchies. One group used Gemini to identify Ukraine defense workers for phishing.
Phishing emails now look real. No more typos. AI writes professional messages that sound human. North Korean hackers posed as recruiters and fooled cybersecurity experts.
Malware uses AI to hide itself. HONESTCUE malware calls Gemini to receive malicious code and download payloads without leaving traces. Amateur coders built this.
⚠️ The signals we used to catch attacks stopped working. AI makes everything look legitimate.
đź‘€ Expect more sophisticated attacks as AI tools get better and cheaper.
When grocery supply chains crash now, there's nobody left who knows how to fix them manually.
Whole Foods, JBS Foods, Stop & Shop—all hit by cyberattacks that shut down stores and exposed millions of workers. This is the new baseline for AI-heavy logistics.
AI now runs every stage of food supply in places like the UK. The problem? Human managers can't override the system anymore when things break.
We deleted the institutional knowledge. The people who used to manually reroute trucks and restock shelves? They're gone, and their skills went with them.
This matters because one major attack could leave entire regions without food—not because there's no supply, but because automated systems fail hard and nobody remembers the manual backup plan.
⚠️ The trade-off nobody talks about: we got efficiency, but we lost resilience. These systems don't degrade gracefully—they collapse completely.
đź‘€ Next time you see "supply chain issues," ask if it's really logistics or if it's just another automated system that broke and can't be fixed.
