šØ INSIGHT: MIT researchers found that heavy use of ChatGPT weakens memory, lowers brain activity, and may harm learning by replacing critical thinking.
The reported breach involves 16 billion login credentials, including usernames and passwords, from platforms like Apple, Google, and Facebook. It likely stems from infostealer malware, not direct hacks of company systems. This means user devices were compromised, capturing data like browser-stored passwords. Risks include unauthorized access, phishing, and identity theft. To protect yourself:
1. Change passwords to strong, unique ones.
2. Enable two-factor authentication (2FA).
3. Use a password manager.
4. Monitor accounts for suspicious activity.
Some data may be old or duplicated, and no official company statements confirm the breach yet, so the full impact is unclear. Stay vigilant and verify with trusted sources.
16 Billion Apple, Facebook, Google And Other Passwords Leaked, change your passwords now
Likely the largest breach ever, exposing logins to phishing & account takeovers. Change passwords now, use a password manager, & switch to passkeys for safety.
