Today, we filed a lawsuit to permanently dismantle a group of organized cybercriminals accused of using AI tools — including Gemini — to scam Americans via fake text campaigns. Here’s what to know: ◾Our suit targets core software developers in a cybercrime operation known as the “Outside Enterprise.” The group has allegedly weaponized AI to quickly generate highly convincing fake government and brand websites intended to steal victims’ credit card numbers and personal information. ◾The group used AI and different Google products — including our trademarks and logos — as part of these phishing campaigns. ◾The scale of the operation is massive: More than 100,000 victims have been scammed, with losses estimated in the millions.

ICYMI: YouTube CEO @nealmohan is on the digital cover of @Deadline alongside creators @cleoabram, @michellekhare, @Jshap_bar and Kareem Rahma (@SubwayTakes). Here are the key takeaways from their discussion: 🏆Julian Shapiro-Barnum (“Celebrtity Substitute”), Michelle Khare (“Challenge Accepted”), Cleo Abram (“HUGE* If True”) and Kareem Rahma, (“SubwayTakes”) are submitting shows to the @TelevisionAcad this year for Emmys consideration. 💰Fueled by a 55% ad-revenue split model, YouTube has paid out a massive $100 billion to creators over the last four years alone, enabling them to fund Hollywood-level production budgets independently. 🔑Unlike the traditional studio system where executives greenlight projects, YouTube's ecosystem allows creators to build, scale and fully own their intellectual property. 📈YouTube now commands the largest slice of the streaming market share, while simultaneously locking in massive live cultural events like NFL Sunday Ticket and the Oscars, starting in 2029.
In an interview with Deadline, @YouTube CEO @nealmohan sat down with some of the platform's key creators — 'Huge* If True’s @cleoabram, @MichelleKhare, creator and host of 'Challenge Accepted'; Julian Shapiro-Barnum (@Jshap_bar), who hosts series including 'Celebrity Substitute' and upcoming late-night show 'Outside Tonight,' and @SubwayTakes host Kareem Rahma, who just launched travel series 'Keep the Meter Running.' In a discussion ranging from why YouTube’s business philosophy works for creators, to how the relationship between platform and creators is evolving, the group swap stories of their inspiration and next moves, including their bid in the Emmy race.
