Meta Employees Are Sounding the Alarm on AI Privacy: What You Can Do to Protect Your Data Recent reports of internal dissent at Meta over how the company handles user data for artificial intelligence training have drawn fresh attention to privacy risks on Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. While employee backlash does not always lead to immediate policy changes, it often signals unresolved issues that eventually affect consumers. This article explains what the controversy is about, why it matters for your data, and which settings you can adjust right now to limit exposure. ...

AI in Medical Imaging: A Privacy Risk You Need to Know About Artificial intelligence can now analyze X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans faster than many radiologists. It catches subtle findings that human eyes might miss, and in some cases it can even predict disease before symptoms appear. But the same technology that improves diagnosis also creates new privacy risks for patients. As AI becomes a standard part of radiology, the sensitive data inside medical images is being handled in ways most people are not aware of. ...

How to Spot Signed Malware Disguised as Productivity Apps Most people assume a digitally signed application is safe. That blue checkmark or “signed by” notice in your operating system’s installer dialog suggests the software has been verified and hasn’t been tampered with. But attackers have found a way around that trust. A recent malware campaign, tracked as TamperedChef, uses valid code-signing certificates to make malicious productivity apps look legitimate. Once installed, the software delivers information stealers and remote access trojans (RATs) that can steal passwords, capture screenshots, and give attackers control of your machine. ...

Medical Imaging AI and Your Privacy: The Hidden Risks You Should Know Artificial intelligence is making medical imaging faster and more accurate. Tumors are found earlier. Scans are read in seconds. But as AI tools become routine in radiology, a less visible side effect is emerging: new risks to your privacy. ...

Medical Imaging AI and Your Privacy: What You Need to Know to Keep Your Health Data Safe Artificial intelligence is being adopted quickly in radiology, helping doctors detect tumors, fractures, and other conditions from CT scans, MRIs, and X-rays. The technology can improve accuracy and speed, but it also introduces new privacy risks that many patients are not aware of. A recent report from the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) highlights these concerns, describing medical imaging AI as opening “a Pandora’s box of privacy-related risks.” Understanding what’s at stake can help you make more informed decisions about your health data. ...

Why Even ‘Signed’ Productivity Apps Can Hide Malware (and What to Do) If you’ve ever downloaded a productivity app from a third-party site, you may have checked for a digital signature as a sign of safety. That instinct isn’t wrong—signed software has traditionally been more trustworthy. But a new malware campaign called TamperedChef is exploiting that very assumption by using properly signed apps as a delivery vehicle for password stealers and remote access tools. Here’s what happened and how to stay safe. ...

How Medical Imaging AI Could Expose Your Private Health Data—and What You Can Do About It Artificial intelligence is reshaping medical imaging. Algorithms now spot lung nodules, measure bone density, and classify tumors faster than many radiologists. But the same technology that analyses your scans can also pull out deeply personal details you never consented to share. This isn’t science fiction—recent reports from the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) show that AI tools can reconstruct body composition data from routine chest X‑rays, and that security gaps around large language models (LLMs) in radiology are only beginning to be understood. ...

TamperedChef Malware Hides in Signed Productivity Apps – What to Do If you’ve ever downloaded a free note‑taking or calendar app from a site that wasn’t an official app store, you’re not alone. Millions of people do it to save a few dollars or avoid subscriptions. But a recently uncovered campaign called TamperedChef shows exactly why that habit can backfire – even when the installer looks legitimate and carries a valid digital signature. ...

Medical Imaging AI Raises New Privacy Risks: What Patients Should Know AI is increasingly used to analyze X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans, helping radiologists detect diseases faster and sometimes more accurately. But this technology also introduces privacy risks that many patients are not aware of. Recent reports from the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) and independent studies show that medical imaging AI can expose more than just the condition you are being scanned for—it can reveal biometric data, infer health risks, and potentially be used in ways you never consented to. ...

How to Avoid Malware Hidden in Trusted Productivity Apps (Like TamperedChef) A new malware campaign reported in May 2026 goes by the name TamperedChef. According to cybersecurity news, it uses signed productivity applications to deliver information stealers and remote access trojans (RATs). For the average user, this is troubling because it exploits something we normally consider a sign of safety: a digital signature. ...
