23 and Me

🧬 Genetics firm 23andMe confirms user data theft in a credential stuffing attack.

✡️ The hackers released 1 million lines of data targeting Ashkenazi Jews.

23andMe, a renowned U.S. biotech & genomics firm, offers genetic testing services.

A threat actor recently leaked data samples from the firm and is now selling 23andMe customer data packs.

The initial data leak was limited but deeply concerning.
The threat actor released 1 million lines of data specifically for Ashkenazi people.

This targeted attack raises serious questions about the motive behind the breach.

On October 4, the hacker offered to sell data profiles in bulk, ranging from $1-$10 per 23andMe account, depending on the quantity purchased.

23andMe's RESPONSE: The company confirmed the data's legitimacy. They believe the hackers used credentials from other breaches to access 23andMe accounts.

"We do not have any indication at this time that there has been a data security incident within our systems."

The leaked data includes full names, usernames, profile photos, sex, date of birth, genetic ancestry results, and geographical location.

This is a goldmine for identity thieves and malicious actors.

The compromised accounts had opted into the platform's 'DNA Relatives' feature.

The hacker accessed a few 23andMe accounts and scraped the data of their DNA Relative matches, showing the potential risks of such features.

23andMe offers two-factor authentication and urges all users to enable it.

It's a reminder for everyone to refrain from reusing passwords and to always use strong, unique credentials.

HOLY CRAP! NAACP lawyer came before the Supreme Court and said the quiet part out loud

Janai Nelson said we need race-based districts because: "white Democrats were not voting for black candidates whether they were Democrats or not!"

This is INSANE.

BREAKING: In an insane move, Justice Ketanji Jackson declares we need to draw Congressional districts based on race because black people are like disabled people

"They don't have equal access to the voting system. They're DISABLED!"

This is utter madness. How did she get on the Supreme Court?!

"My, kind of, paradigmatic example of this is something like the ADA. Congress passed the ADA against the backdrop of a world generally not accessible to people with disabilities...why is that not what's happening here?!"

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink says this is only the beginning as the tokenization of everything is underway.

Money, property, and even personal identity will soon exist in digital form.

He calls it a major opportunity for BlackRock, saying the plan is to move beyond traditional financial assets by digitally re-potting them into a new system.

Tweepcred

🤖📱 Between empty promises of a billionaire and a social credit system. The “secret” way your behaviour is ranked on X

What is Tweepcred? It’s a reputation system inherited from the days of Twitter, a social credit mechanism built into X, where every like, comment, retweet, or interaction feeds a hidden score. Post the wrong thing, and your reach is throttled, invisible to followers, blocked from the For You Page, and your voice is confined to a digital coffin. The worst part? X won’t even tell us what we’re doing wrong.

Tweepcred was open-sourced two years ago as part of Elon’s big push for “transparency.” The release confirmed what many suspected for over a decade: the system wasn’t neutral. It could be gamified, and it rewarded those who knew how to play it. Industry insiders and large organizations held a massive advantage over individuals, defeating the very purpose of the internet and the cultural revolution that once challenged mass media.

Ranchers

🇺🇸👨‍🌾 Meriwether Farms on X:

Dear Trump,

We love you and support you— but your suggestion to buy beef from Argentina to stabilize beef prices would be an absolute betrayal to the American cattle rancher.

We understand there are larger economic and geopolitical dynamics at play, including countering CCP influence in countries in our hemisphere. But the practice of solving problems “over there” before solving problems here on our soil is what contributed to the downfall of our country: Americans always come last.

We understand beef prices are high, and we admire your concern for all Americans, but this is not the fault of the American producer. This is the fault of politicians who have allowed BRICS-aligned entities to dominate the meat industry, that participate in price fixing and who also continually lie to their consumers.

Washington for decades has facilitated the squeezing of our own ranchers while allowing these entities to flood the market with cheaper, ...
