    I have said it before, and I will repeat it until I am blue in the face.

    Adblockers are a part of the security suite that everyone should use. Until marketing companies starts accepting legal and monetary liability for the dammage a compromised ad causes I won’t even consider disabling my adblocker.

    I still won’t do it, but I would consider it.

    The same goes for this shit, until we have laws regulating liability for AI/LLMs that extends to more than just posting a message to not take responses seriously, while promoting the AI/LLM as the second coming of Christ, we should avoid using it.

    The tech industry has been allowed to be cake having eaters for far too long.

    First, distrust everything you see in search engines. Assess what they return critically, particularly anything that’s promoted.

    That sums it up pretty well. Don’t trust Google and Bing blindly.

    Encoding the malicious url in base64 is certainly an interesting trick.

    I bet that drives the success rate up quite a bit…

    i just assumed that mac users simply get a new mac when they run out of space

    this is just another iteration of seo aiding in phishing. it sounds insane to me that people trust chatbots and that chatbot provider page is considered in any way “trusted”

    that malicious domain is down now btw
