Hacking entity ShinyHunters claims they just stole more than 8.8TB of data from Amazon's One Medical tele-health service. They posted a public warning demanding contact by June 22 2026 or the info gets leaked along with some digital headaches for the company. Amazon and One Medical have stayed quiet so far while this group keeps hitting similar targets. Health insurance companies have been encouraging their members to make use of telehealth services to improve their bottom line, even though it means eroding the doctor / patient relationship, just to increase their bottom line. If your medical records or family health data runs through services like this it is worth checking how exposed you might be and pushing for better protection on sensitive info.

This is the least of OpenAI's worries. They have a sociopathic con man leading the team, ChatGPT encourages people to kill themselves, the cascade of lawsuits and an internal coup bubbling up. Losing money is part of the AI startup process, they either make the turn to landing and fulfilling lucrative contracts and turn the corner or they wither and die.
OpenAI generated $13.07 billion in revenue in 2025 but recorded operating losses of nearly $21 billion, according to leaked audited financial documents obtained by Ed Zitron. The documents show OpenAI spent around $34 billion that year, including $19.18 billion on research and development and $5.73 billion on sales and marketing. Cost of revenue reached $7.5 billion. “OpenAI’s financial statements tell the story of a company with incredible losses,” Zitron wrote. Despite the massive spending, revenue rose from $3.7 billion in 2024 to more than $13 billion in 2025. OpenAI ended the year with over $50 billion in assets, nearly half in cash.

The EU is folding Ukraine into its official cybersecurity reserve so Kyiv can tap pre-approved incident response firms during major attacks. This move lines up with Ukraine's push toward full EU membership and gives them faster access to vetted help when things go sideways. For IT folks and small business tech teams watching European policy it shows how governments are building shared defense pools instead of every country going it alone. The practical side is quicker coordinated response but it also means more cross-border data flows and vendor lists that could shape what tools and rules trickle down later. Does this kind of pooled approach make your own security planning easier or just add another layer to track?

Scammers keep finding ways to dodge app store rules and hit everyday users with hard-to-cancel subscriptions. The FTC just sued a network using shell companies and tricky payment setups to stay online even after complaints pile up. This hits regular people hardest. Folks sign up for an app thinking it is legit, then get nickel-and-dimed for months because the stores cannot or will not shut them down fast enough. Check your app store subscriptions right now and cancel anything you do not recognize. It is your money and your phone, not theirs.

Over 150 Chrome extensions for live wallpapers turned out to be sneaky data grabbers that also faked Google search clicks to boost ad traffic. Socket found these tools logged user info while pretending to just change your desktop look. Regular folks who grab fun add-ons without a second thought get hit hardest here since their browsing habits and clicks get sold off without warning. If you run Chrome check your extensions list today and ditch anything you do not fully trust. How many wallpaper apps do you really need anyway.

Couldn't have said it better myself.
It’s amazing how quickly the gatekeepers of culture decide what’s acceptable. In June, every logo becomes a rainbow. Every stadium, every jersey, every broadcast gets a political message. But put a Bible verse on your cap? Suddenly that’s “controversial.” Put an American slogan front and center? Suddenly that’s “divisive.” The NFL had no problem painting political movements in the end zone. Major League Baseball has no problem turning every June into a month-long corporate activism campaign. Yet the moment someone wants to celebrate faith, patriotism, or traditional values, we’re told those things don’t belong in sports. Funny how the people preaching inclusion always seem to have a very specific list of viewpoints they’re willing to include. If rainbow logos belong in sports, then so do Bible verses. If political messages belong in sports, then so do messages celebrating faith, family, and country. The double standard isn’t subtle anymore. EVERYONE sees it.

Microsoft investors are pointing fingers at inflated claims around Copilot success and the big OpenAI spend while Azure growth hits some real bumps. This matters to IT folks and small business tech leads who count on steady Azure performance for their operations. Masking cloud struggles with AI hype puts real workloads at risk when budgets get tight and reliability questions pop up. Folks running Microsoft 365 or cloud setups need to watch these numbers close because overpromising here often means surprise costs or feature shortfalls down the line. How are you planning around potential Azure hiccups in your setup?

Meta is not run by serious people and definitely not by adults. You have a man-child as a CEO who goes the way the wind blows and has no central ethical / moral core. I do not trust the company, but I have to deal with them daily due to the needs of my clients and the reach Facebook / Instagram / Threads gives them into their customers' lives.
JUST IN: Meta’s CTO says morale is near “the worst it’s ever been” — leadership will offer increased snack budgets to lift spirits.

K-pop fans are drawing a hard line against AI deepfakes that stick idols into creepy intimate scenes without any consent. These aren't harmless edits anymore. Tools make realistic videos of real people, including minors in some cases, and communities on Reddit are reporting it and pushing back. Idols are actual humans with lives, not characters for someone to insert themselves into. The industry plays both sides by complaining about misuse while chasing AI to cut costs. Social pressure is doing the heavy lifting since laws lag behind. How far does this spread before more folks get hit with the same non-consensual nonsense?

The core problem is lack of consent and easy access to realistic generation. Fans protecting their idols shows regular people can set boundaries when tech enables abuse. 404media.co/k-pop-fans-deepf…

Major events like the 2026 World Cup bring serious cyber exposure that security teams cannot ignore. Ransomware crews and state-backed actors are already eyeing transportation, power grids, and venue networks across the US, Canada, and Mexico. These systems run the show for millions of fans and local businesses, so any breach hits real operations and safety fast. IT folks managing infrastructure need to map every connected device and third-party vendor now instead of waiting for headlines. How prepared are the networks in your area for this kind of spotlight?

Now Apple is putting the extensive identifiable analytics they collect in the App Store in action. They record every tap and there's no way to turn it off. They can even calculate your typing speed. This is what the App Store sends to Apple when I searched for "Tim cook":
