Anthropic fixed the flaws - but the AI-enabled attack surfaces remain

Security vulnerabilities in Claude Code could have allowed attackers to remotely execute code on users' machines and steal API keys by injecting malicious configurations into repositories, and then waiting for a developer to clone and open an untrustworthy project.…

You'll find these days that there's no hiding place

Add privacy to the list of potential casualties caused by the proliferation of AI, because researchers have found that large language models (LLMs) can be used to deanonymize internet users – even those who use pseudonyms – more efficiently than human sleuths.…

Damning inquiry into services in England reveals falsification of medical records after ‘negligent’ care

• What is the national maternity and neonatal investigation and why was it launched?

• Cruel comments, racism and cover-ups: key findings from England’s maternity care report

Hospitals that cause harm and injury to women and babies during childbirth often resort to a “cover-up” of their mistakes, falsify medical records and deny bereaved parents answers, a damning report has found.

“Negligent” care has devastating emotional and psychological consequences for families, disputes between maternity staff have a “disastrous” impact on mothers, and ethnic minority and poorer women have worse outcomes because of racism and discrimination, Lady Amos said.

Banning families from being involved in investigations into the mistakes they encountered.

Conducting inquiries into errors which families think are poor quality and do not properly reflect what occurred.

Driving distressed families to instigate legal action as a way of getting at the truth after they were “denied openness and honesty in the aftermath of harm and bereavement”.

Failing to treat families who have lost a baby with compassion.

Agitator whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon was hosted by senior adviser at US state department

The far-right activist Tommy Robinson has been hosted by the Trump administration for a meeting at the state department in Washington.

Robinson, 43, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was hosted by Joe Rittenhouse, a senior adviser at the state department.

Rittenhouse wrote on X: “Honoured to have free speech warrior @TRobinsonNewEra at Department of State today.

“The world and the West is a better place when we fight for freedom of speech and no one has been on the front lines more than Tommy. Good to see you my friend!”

Robinson, who has convictions for assault, using a fake passport, mortgage fraud and contempt of court for repeating false allegations against a Syrian refugee in breach of an injunction, wrote on X: “In America making alliances & friendships, today I had the privilege of an invite to the @StateDept.”

Earlier this month, the far-right agitator said he has left the UK after he was warned by police they received intelligence that he was named in a so-called Islamic State publication which encouraged others “to commit violence” against him.

He posted a clip of a phone call from police to his X account in which an officer told him he had been identified in a magazine called Yalghaar, which is reportedly published by ISKP, Islamic State Khorasan Province.

Robinson wrote on X: “I have now left the country, I need time to work things out for my safety and the safety of my family.

“I will probably have to relocate them.”

In November, the far-right activist was cleared of a terror-related offence after being accused over a refusal to give police access to his phone during a border stop in Folkestone, Kent.

After his acquittal, he thanked the US tech billionaire Elon Musk, who he said had funded his legal costs in the case.

Scottish Green MSP Maggie Chapman told The National the Trump administration welcoming Robinson would be “deeply alarming”.

She said: “This is a man who has built his profile on division, racism and Islamophobia, and whose politics are rooted in the most vile hatred and fascism, so it’s perhaps no surprise that Donald Trump’s White House are among his fans.

“When communities across the UK are facing rising levels of hate crime and far-right extremism, the idea that figures like Robinson are being treated as legitimate political actors by what are supposed to be our international allies, should concern us all.”

BASSETERRE (ANP/RTR) - De Verenigde Staten gaan zelf verifiëren wat er is gebeurd met de speedboot uit Florida die is beschoten door Cuba. Dat zei minister van Buitenlandse Zaken Marco Rubio op een top in St. Kitts en Nevis in het Caribische gebied.

Volgens de Cubaanse regering voer de boot de Cubaanse kustwateren binnen en opende het vuur op een schip van de Cubaanse kustwacht. Daarop hebben de Cubanen teruggeschoten en vier mensen gedood en zes verwond.

De kapitein van de Cubaanse kustwacht raakte bij de schotenwisseling gewond. De gewonden op de Amerikaanse speedboot zijn van boord gehaald en worden behandeld aan hun verwondingen.

Rubio zei dat de aanwezigheid van de boot geen Amerikaanse operatie was en dat er geen Amerikaanse regeringsfunctionarissen bij de gebeurtenissen betrokken zijn.

De spanningen tussen Cuba en de Verenigde Staten zijn de afgelopen weken sterk opgelopen. Washington stelde een blokkade in voor olie die naar Cuba werd geëxporteerd en speculeert over een machtswisseling op het eiland.

DEN HAAG (ANP) - Investeerders hebben in het vierde kwartaal van vorig jaar de meeste woningen verkocht sinds 2021, meldt het Kadaster. Daarmee zet de verkoopgolf van woningen door investeerders duidelijk door.

In totaal verkochten investeerders ruim 20.700 huizen, een stijging van 5,3 procent ten opzichte van een jaar eerder. Tegelijkertijd kochten ze bijna 8900 huizen, wat neerkomt op een daling van 4 procent. Het verschil tussen het aantal verkochte en aangekochte woningen door investeerders neemt sinds 2023 toe. Dit komt onder andere door strengere regels voor verhuur in dat jaar, waardoor verhuren minder aantrekkelijk is.

Eigenaren die zelf in de woning gaan wonen, kopen steeds vaker huizen die voorheen in handen waren van investeerders. Eigenaar-bewoners waren landelijk goed voor 16 procent van de aankopen van voormalige investeerderswoningen. Begin 2021 lag dat aandeel nog rond de 7 procent.

In de grote steden Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht en Den Haag ligt het percentage aanzienlijk hoger. Daar was in het vierde kwartaal van vorig jaar bijna 28 procent van de woningaankopen door eigenaar-bewoners voorheen in het bezit van een investeerder. In 2021 was dit 13 procent.

Daarnaast verkopen investeerders hun huizen over het algemeen voor een lagere prijs dan eigenaar-bewoners. Vooral buiten de grote steden is dit verschil het grootst. Daar betaalden eigenaar-bewoners gemiddeld 360.000 euro voor een woning van een investeerder. Kochten ze van een andere eigenaar-bewoner, dan betaalden ze gemiddeld 141.000 euro meer.

In heel 2025 kochten investeerders 27.000 woningen, en verkochten ze 65.000 woningen. Aan het begin van dit jaar was 9 procent van de woningvoorraad in handen van investeerders. Begin 2024 was dit nog 9,4 procent. Vooral in de vier grote steden is het bezit van particuliere investeerders afgenomen.

DEN HAAG (ANP) - Premier Rob Jetten weet nog niet wat het nieuwe plan voor de verhoging van de AOW-leeftijd wordt. "Daar heb ik een goede minister en staatssecretaris van Sociale Zaken voor", zei de D66-premier na de eerste termijn van het debat over zijn regeringsverklaring.

Vanuit de oppositie kwam veel kritiek op het verhogen van de AOW-leeftijd. Die moet een-op-een meestijgen met de levensverwachting. Nu is dat nog acht maanden per jaar dat we langer leven.

De SGP en Groep Markuszower kwamen nog voordat ze zelf gesproken hadden met een voorstel om het kabinet opnieuw naar het plan te laten kijken en de AOW-leeftijd minder te laten stijgen. Alle andere oppositiepartijen waren daartegen, maar het lijkt donderdag een nipte meerderheid te krijgen.

Het was Jettens eerste debat als premier. "Je ziet dat coalitie en oppositie ook op zoek zijn: hoe kunnen we samenwerken?" Volgens hem "smaakt het naar meer". Jetten komt donderdag aan het woord in het debat en geeft dan antwoord op de gestelde vragen.

Tech companies ranging from 300-person startups to giants like Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft and Salesforce have moved beyond encouraging employees to use AI tools and are now actively tracking adoption and, in several cases, tying it to performance reviews. Google is factoring AI use into some software engineer reviews for the first time this year, and Meta's new performance review system will do the same -- it can track how many lines of code an engineer wrote with AI assistance.

Amazon Web Services managers have dashboards showing individual engineer AI-tool usage and consider adoption when evaluating promotions. About 42% of tech-industry workers said their direct manager expects AI use in daily work as of last October, up from 32% eight months earlier, according to AI consulting firm Section. At software maker Autodesk, CEO Andrew Anagnost acknowledged that some employees had been using initially blocked coding tools like Cursor stealthily -- and warned that AI holdouts "probably won't survive long term."

An anonymous reader shares a report: Brian Merchant, writing for Blood in the Machine, reports that people across the United States are dismantling and destroying Flock surveillance cameras, amid rising public anger that the license plate readers aid U.S. immigration authorities and deportations.

Flock is the Atlanta-based surveillance startup valued at $7.5 billion a year ago and a maker of license plate readers. It has faced criticism for allowing federal authorities access to its massive network of nationwide license plate readers and databases at a time when U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is increasingly relying on data to raid communities as part of the Trump administration's immigration crackdown.

Flock cameras allow authorities to track where people go and when by taking photos of their license plates from thousands of cameras located across the United States. Flock claims it doesn't share data with ICE directly, but reports show that local police have shared their own access to Flock cameras and its databases with federal authorities. While some communities are calling on their cities to end their contracts with Flock, others are taking matters into their own hands.

While Magnhild Kennedy’s masks certainly hide their wearer’s identity, they won’t leave you inconspicuous. Working as Damselfrau, the East London-based artist stitches elaborate disguises from a range of found materials. Beads, feathers, fringe, and various glitzy baubles layer onto mesh panels, sometimes in the form of bright, owl-like eyes or a gilded, regal headdress.

Kennedy is in a quieter period of her practice at the moment, working slowly and intentionally on her garments. In addition to the studio pieces, she’s also been hosting maker parties that invite friends and community members to join in the creative process. Follow the latest on Instagram.
