😱 We Vibe Coded This AI Slop Nightmare with ChatGPT
It Only Took 15 Mins to Pollute the Internet with the World's Worst Website

Way back in August, we ran a simple test — we asked ChatGPT to vibe code the worst site possible. Purposefully coding a pile of AI slop comes with great responsibility… and we’re confident that we’ve contained this flaming pile of garbage well enough to share it with our loyal fans. 🤓

Check it out for yourself, but you've been warned! https://bitsontape.com/p/chatgpt-vibe-code-thanksgiving

On Friday, Keonne Rodriguez reported to federal prison and will spend the holidays behind bars. He was one of the developers recently prosecuted for offering a privacy tool for Bitcoin.

Last week, John Kiriakou from our Ivy Cyber team interviewed him for #DeepFocus. It's an incredible conversation between two people unjustly imprisoned for their strong dedication to human rights and democratic values. #pardonsamourai

Some holiday gifts sparkle. Others listen, record, and upload the details of your life to Big Tech servers. This year’s hottest gadgets promise friendship, fitness, and futuristic flair, but a growing number of them come with privacy and cybersecurity risks baked right into the design.

Before you wrap that shiny new wearable or smart device, take a closer look. They track conversations, movements, and moments that were never meant to be shared. Here’s our short list of holiday gifts you’ll want to return, recycle, or leave out in the cold.

We’ve gotten used to advertisements that follow us from web browsers, to smartphones, to televisions, to grocery stores. Modern tech promises efficiency, personalization, and better experiences. What Big Tech delivers instead is pervasive and ubiquitous surveillance, baked directly into the systems you rely upon for everyday chores.

Sure, you can shrug and consider your loss of privacy the cost of living in a connected world, but it’s worth taking a closer look at how the stakes are increasing. Tracking of your behavior can have a heavy impact on your wallet and even your business.

Prices now change routinely based on who you are. Smartphones are reporting on you thousands of times a day. Tracking techniques once considered unacceptable are quietly making a comeback.

As the year 2025 ends, we highlight a few ways that surveillance is creeping back into ordinary life.
