You're scrolling through social media. A video appears from a celebrity you follow. In it, they ask for contributions toward their latest project.
You receive a video of yourself, showing you in a physically intimate situation.
Just a few years ago, these situations would be likely genuine. But now, thanks to artificial intelligence, a scammer could be contacting you and if you don't have the ability to tell real from fake, you may easily fall for a plea for cash or a blackmail threat.
For 2025, experts are sounding the alarm about AI and its effect on online security. The technology is supercharging the speed and sophistication of attacks—and in particular, it's making scamming others using likenesses of both famous people and everyday citizens far, far easier.

The real-time simulation can take on martial proportions, as this video from Christmas 2013 shows. In the video, Santa's reindeer sleigh is referred to as "The Big Red One" (which is also the name of the famous 1st Infantry Division of the US Army):
NORAD is a joint command of the United States of America and Canada that monitors the airspace over North America and provides "early warning of missile, air, and spacecraft attacks on North America." Ba

Citing the Digital Markets Act (DMA), the European Union (EU) has requested "further explanations" from Apple regarding its decision to close down the developer account of Fortnite publisher Epic Games. Apple says it does not trust Epic, citing the game developer's history of untrustworthy actions.
This is bad news for Epic, which had hoped to launch its own Epic Games Store on iOS in the EU now that Apple has been forced to open up to third-party stores there.
But perhaps Apple has a point.
When friends become enemies
Apple fans will likely know the background story: Epic kicked off a wave of investigation, litigation, and complaint against Apple's App Store business practices. By doing so, it broke its developer agreement and installed an external payment system within its app, which it knew Apple would reject.
