Revolut Just Had the Most Embarrassing Data Breach

A hacker emailed Revolut pretending to be a government agency, and Revolut handed over customers' passports, IDs, and financial details. Plus: the global age-verification wave forcing even more ID collection (EU, California, Microsoft), OpenAI's rogue AI agents and why I've hit a breaking point with these companies, and the usual run of data breaches, threats, and open-source updates. Correction: it's really DMARC that stops the spoofing, misspoke! Set up SPF, DKIM, and DMARC together. 🔎 EasyOptOuts is the easy, affordable, and effective way to automatically remove your data from people search sites: https://easyoptouts.com Thanks to the EasyOptOuts team for sponsoring Surveillance Report! 🔗 SOURCES & LINKS • Sources, Podcast & Shownotes: https://techlore.tech/no-hack-needed-how-revolut-leaked-your-passport-plus-new-age-verification-rogue-ai-agents/ 🔎 RELATED VIDEOS https://youtu.be/RSqD8wWRjqw 📨 Stay ahead of the news without doom-scrolling.
