<li><strong>SpaceX acquires xAI, plans orbital AI data centers</strong>: SpaceX has acquired xAI in a deal valued at $250 billion, with plans to build AI data centers in space powered by solar energy. Elon Musk claims this will drastically reduce AI computing costs and enable petawatt-scale AI infrastructure within years. This consolidation brings Grok, X, Starlink, and SpaceX under one roof, but raises significant concerns about oversight, ethics, and national security, especially given xAI’s reported $1 billion monthly burn rate, as reported by multiple sources. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=wMYF638eZ&amp;id=n9USqOv7M" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Container security is a mess, human error to blame</strong>: Nearly a quarter of developers experienced container-related security incidents last year, with human error accounting for 62% of mistakes. Despite security being a top priority for some, 86% of organizations prioritize performance over security when choosing base images. This leads to bloated images and infrequent patching, creating a fertile ground for vulnerabilities, according to surveys by BellSoft and Chainguard. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/I55IVTrKU" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Google disrupts major residential proxy network</strong>: Google’s Threat Intelligence Group successfully disrupted IPIDEA, a massive residential proxy network used by over 550 threat groups for espionage and cybercrime. This network secretly enrolled millions of consumer devices, turning them into exit nodes for malicious activities. Google collaborated with industry partners to take down command-and-control domains and protect Android devices, significantly reducing IPIDEA’s operational capacity. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/68kBI3xUP" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>

<li><strong>AI coding assistants are secretly transmitting your code to China</strong>: A security report from Schneier on Security claims two popular AI coding assistants, used by 1.5 million developers, are secretly transmitting ingested code to servers in China for intellectual property theft. So, while you’re busy ‘optimizing’ your workflow, your code might be taking an unscheduled trip to the Far East. Maybe read the EULA next time, or just, you know, write your own code. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/puWFcrOO1" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>OpenClaw: a shopping cart full of security holes</strong>: OpenClaw, an AI agent project that mysteriously gained 60,000 GitHub stars in 72 hours, is apparently a ‘shopping cart full of other people’s work’ and critical vulnerabilities. Security researchers found data exfiltration, exposed credentials, and prompt injection weaknesses. It seems coordinated influencer promotion can’t patch bad architecture, but hey, at least it was popular for a minute. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/fuL6WfKHt" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Adobe discontinues animate, shifts focus to ‘AI-powered products’</strong>: Adobe is discontinuing its 25-year-old 2D animation software, Animate, citing ‘evolving technologies’ and a shift towards ‘AI-powered products.’ Because apparently, AI can magically replace decades of specialized creative tools without a direct replacement. Thousands of frustrated creators are now left scrambling, while Adobe probably hopes they’ll just use After Effects and ‘AI magic’ to animate their next South Park episode. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/qknk66LkL" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
