As on many days I walk to work, I was addressed today by someone with a branded vest and clipboard.

Here in deep-blue MA, they're always looking for money for UNICEF or Planned Parenthood or the Nature Conservancy or the ACLU or HRC or etc. (I assume the Operation Rescue and Focus on the Family clipboard brigade work other beats.) I generally support the organizations here (sometimes literally, with monthly donations set up) but I do not approve of the canvassing itself. I think it does for genuine, in-person human interaction what spam and telemarketing have done for email and the phone. Someone says "Excuse me" to me in public and I am conditioned to expect to be asked for money.

And this used to bother me a lot MORE until I realized that I do not have to respond. I can just keep walking. It's not rude because this is not actually a social interaction. I decided a long time ago that anyone can ask me anything, but whether and how I respond is my business. (1/2)

Meta says its AI app Muse has passed 10 million users, with shopping the top activity. Zuckerberg said about 25% of new users open it daily, and shoppers who bought through the agent spent over 200 USD on average, via Plaid's bank connector. Meta calls Muse's agentic commerce a sign of product-market fit. https://techcrunch.com/2026/10/21/meta-says-muse-has-over-10m-users-with-shopping-a-top-activity/ #AIagent #AI #GenAI #AgenticAI

My teammate Matt Green put together a new Velociraptor artifact to "inventory PHP installations on Windows, Linux and macOS for remediation scoping. Collect package versions, common binary/module paths and running PHP processes."

https://docs.velociraptor.app/exchange/artifacts/pages/phpinventory/

This might come in handy in the upcoming days 🙈

Oh look, St James's Palace is no longer listed. I'm sure such a wealthy org didn't just pay to stay unlisted or anything...

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@cR0w/117473910839517736 Same site just listed St James's Palace. I don't know anything about them but it appears they are a financial advisory company for rich people. The listed valuation is $40.1BN USD so it'll be interesting what they publish. No

Digital Arts, maker of the i-FILTER web filtering and m-FILTER email security products used across Japanese companies, government and schools, says stolen operations credentials let intruders into the environment running six cloud services. Some traces date back to July 2025.

An AI-assisted review on Oct 9 found what earlier checks missed. When the security vendor is the way in, review your filter policies, not just passwords.
