The Lighthouse IT Podcast - October 4th, 2024
This week, Matt and Griff discuss the discovery that Meta has been scraping public posts on Facebook and Instagram since 2007 and using that data to train their AI models. TikTok is hoping to avoid a ban in the U.S. without selling themselves and has taken their plight to the U.S. Court of Appeals. Additionally, TikTok has recently implemented search ads onto its platform, allowing advertisers to target users based on what they are searching on TikTok, and many younger people are using TikTok as a search engine. Speaking of search engines, Google Search now integrates The Internet Archive's Wayback Machine into its search results, allowing users to see past versions of web pages. Unfortunately for Google, they are still embroiled in their anti-trust lawsuit, although the CEO of YouTube, a company they also own, has testified on their behalf. Maker of Wi-Fi chipsets, MediaTek, recently released a patch for a critical vulnerability; make sure all your wireless devices are updated with their latest security patches. Finally, ServiceNow instances were found to have a data leak vulnerability due to a default misconfiguration in their Knowledge Base access control settings.
