The internet could change if the U.S. House passes the KIDS Act today to "protect children." Critics warn it could mean de facto age checks for everyone and weakened encrypted communications.
The KIDS Act is a package of around a dozen bills that pairs a revised Kids Online Safety Act with new age-verification, AI chatbot, and messaging rules.
Digital rights group EFF warns the design would pressure platforms to age-check all users, not just minors, since liability can attach when a service "should have known" a user's age, and flags new rules touching encrypted and disappearing messages. Sponsors Brett Guthrie (R) and Frank Pallone (D) say it's kids-safety protection and note KOSA's text says age verification isn't required.

Chinese AI models have matched the performance of Anthropicβs powerful model Mythos in some cybersecurity scenarios.
Researchers point to Zhipu AI's open-weight GLM-5.2 and a new tool, Tulongfeng, from 360 Security Technology, whose CEO said the capability cannot stay "solely in American hands."
The Trump administration has kept the more capable Anthropic models, Fable and Mythos, off-limits to foreign users for more than two weeks while continuing to clear AI chip exports to China, a pairing one former export-control official called "a gift to China."

In the Russian town of Podolsk, a 13-year-old boy set fire to a fuel pump at a gas station. According to Russia's Interior Ministry, online handlers had tricked him into doing it.
The boy had been chatting with someone online he thought was a girl, and he'd shared his location with "her." The handlers then told him that location was going to be used to target a Ukrainian missile strike, and that the only way to stop the strike was to burn down the gas station.

βΌοΈ BREAKING: Anthropic has embedded hidden spyware-like code in Claude Code that covertly targets Chinese users. It then sends information regarding every user by injecting it into their prompt message.
Claude Code is sending info like timezone, proxy and possible AI Lab connections into the system prompt in ways Chinese users can't notice.
A coding agent with repo and command permissions should not silently hide routing metadata inside prompts. This is a serious breach of user trust.

βΌοΈResearchers found six wireless pre-authentication vulnerabilities in Apple AirDrop and Google/Samsung Quick Share, the proximity file-transfer protocols running on over 5 billion devices. The bugs are reachable from wireless range with no pairing.
Five are denial-of-service or protocol-manipulation flaws. One, a use-after-free in Quick Share for Windows, earned a Google bounty and is rated potentially exploitable. The team says it could not bypass the file-transfer consent prompt.
Apple, Samsung, and Google have acknowledged the reports Most are not yet patched, and no CVEs have been assigned, with one pending for the Windows bug.
