X tweaks rules to formally allow adult content
TechCrunch: “The internet has been home to all kinds of content for a long time, so it was no surprise to anyone when people started tweeting porn at each other.
X (formerly Twitter) has long had many active NSFW (not safe for work) communities, and though the social network unofficially allowed people to post adult content, its rules have never forbidden or allowed such content outright. That’s changing now. Over the weekend, X added clauses to its rules, formally allowing users to post adult and graphic content on the platform — with a few caveats.
Users can now post consensually produced NSFW content as long as it is prominently labeled as such. The new rules also cover AI-generated videos and images. The tweak to the rules is not a complete surprise, since X, under Elon Musk, has already experimented with formally hosting adult content with NSFW communities.

Windows AI feature that screenshots everything labeled a security ‘disaster’
The Verge: “Microsoft is about to launch a new AI-powered Recall feature that screenshots everything you do on your PC.
Recall is part of the new Copilot Plus PCs that are debuting on June 18th, but experts who have tested the feature are already warning that Recall could be a “disaster” for cybersecurity. Recall is designed to use local AI models to screenshot everything you see or do on your computer and then give you the ability to search and retrieve anything in seconds. There’s even an explorable timeline you can scroll through. Everything in Recall is designed to remain local and private on-device, so no data is used to train Microsoft’s AI models.
Despite Microsoft’s promises of a secure and encrypted Recall experience, cybersecurity expert Kevin Beaumont has found that the AI-powered feature has some potential security flaws. Beaumont, who briefly worked at Microsoft in 2020, has been testing out Recall over the past week and discovered that the feature stores data in a database in plain text. That could make it trivial for an attacker to use malware to extract the database and its contents…”
