The Security box, podcast 158: The 1.3B Facebook fine


Listen Later

Welcome to podcast 158 of the Security Box. On today's podcast, we've got at least one moron, we've got an interesting topic that deals with Facebook getting fined, again, and of course we'll cover the landscape and what has been read and blogged as of late.



The You Stupid Fuck award section

  • Who the hell is Global phishing 16 service? Well, someone or multiple someones have been picked up. Karma Catches Up to Global Phishing Service 16Shop comes to us from Krebs on Security and was quite an interesting read. According to Krebs, this outfit has been around since 2017 and really had a name for itself when it came to having people pay on time, making sure their tools were not given to anyone who did not pay and more. While the concept was novel, people got caught, so please enjoy your stupid fuck award.
  • Nice to see some arrests of a couple dozen more stupid fucks in this one. Two dozen arrested, hundreds of malicious IPs taken down in African cybercrime operation comes to us from Cyberscoop. While the article isn't long, we now learn there is a new threat that knows what they're doing. Better read this one!
  • Topic: The 1.3 Billion dollar fine and what it means for privacy regulation


    The article we're going to take from is an article we posted back in May. The title of this article is What the record-breaking $1.3 billion Meta fine means for the US-EU clash over spying programs and it comes from Cyberscoop.


    I guess we'll have to see what happens with this, as I don't think we'll be done with this yet. If there are any updates, we'll be posting these updates to our list and blog where applicable.
