Subject: NYSE technical error sends stocks tumbling (The Register)

Apparently, the LU-LD bands snapped...

My speculation: real-time SW updates to handle speculative meme trading
apparently went horribly wrong, actually *causing* the very problem the fix
was attempting to stop.

Note to self: real-time SW updates to real-time systems are very, very
dangerous. Perhaps waiting until trading stops for the day might be a
better update policy?

I wonder if this SW problem had any interactions with the new 'T+1'
settlement scheme?

Subject: London Hospitals Face Major Disruptions After Cyberattack
 (NYTimes)

Several major hospitals in London have been crippled by a cyberattack,
Britain's National Health Service said, causing surgical procedures to be
canceled, disrupting blood transfusions and forcing patients to be diverted.

A ransomware cyberattack on Synnovis, an organization that manages blood
transfusions and other services, on Monday had significantly disrupted the
delivery of services at King's College and Guy's and St. Thomas' hospital
trusts, which run several major hospitals. The attack has also caused
disruptions to primary care offices in southeast London.

Subject: Digital surveillance and customer isolation are individualizing the
 prices we pay (Prospect)

https://prospect.org/economy/2024-06-04-one-person-one-price/

The RISK?  E-commerce and the Internet.

Businesses have always wanted to maximize what they can induce people to
pay, trying to walk right up to the limit before a customer says no. But
everyone has a different pain point, and companies were deterred from purely
individualizing what they charge, because of publicly posted prices and
consumer anger over the unfairness of being charged differently for the same
product.

Today, the fine-graining of data and the isolation of consumers has changed
the game. The old idiom is that every man has his price. But that’s
literally true now, much more than you know, and it’s certainly the plan for
the future.

“The idea of being able to charge every individual person based on their
individual willingness to pay has for the most part been a thought
experiment,” said Lina Khan, chairwoman of the Federal Trade Commission.
“And now … through the enormous amount of behavioral and individualized data
that these data brokers and other firms have been collecting, we’re now in
an environment that technologically it actually is much more possible to be
serving every individual person an individual price based on everything they
know about you.”

Economists soft-pedal this emerging trend by calling it “personalized”
pricing, which reflects their view that tying price to individual
characteristics adds value for consumers. But Zephyr Teachout, who helped
write anti-price-gouging rules in the New York attorney general’s office,
has a different name for it: surveillance pricing.  [...]

*THERE HAVE BEEN TWO BINDING CONSTRAINTS* for true personalization: the
quality and quantity of data collected, and the mechanism for giving
individual prices to people who shop where price tags are publicly
displayed. Step by step, these constraints are being defeated, and a new
frontier on pricing is becoming available.

E-commerce really served both ends. Instead of being out in the world,
people shop from home, unaware of any uniform price. And data that can be
grabbed over the Internet dwarfs what’s available on a loyalty card.  It
includes your IP address, the devices you use, your phone number, email,
pinpoint demographics, and a comprehensive graph of everything you’ve ever
done on the Internet, from purchases to searches to websites visited to
emails to social media posts and much, much more. And if the retailer
doesn't get all that information, they could always buy it.

Subject: How a Samsung Washing Machine Chime Triggered a YouTube Copyright
 Fiasco (WiReD)

When YouTube’s Content ID system goes wrong, it goes very, very wrong.

YouTube’s Content ID system—which automatically detects content registered
by rights holders—is “completely fucking broken,” a YouTuber called “Albino”
declared in a rant on the social media site X that has been viewed more than
950,000 times.

Albino, who is also a popular Twitch streamer, complained that his YouTube
video playing through Fallout was demonetized because a Samsung washing
machine randomly chimed to signal a laundry cycle had finished while he was
streaming.

Apparently, YouTube had automatically scanned Albino's video and detected
the washing machine chime as a song called “Done”—which Albino quickly saw
was uploaded to YouTube by a musician known as Audego nine years ago.

But when Albino hit Play on Audego's song, the only thing that he heard was
a 30-second clip of the washing machine chime. To Albino it was obvious that
Audego didn't have any rights to the jingle, which Dexerto reported actually
comes from the song "Die Forelle" (“The Trout”) from Austrian composer Franz
Schubert.

The song was composed in 1817 and is in the public domain. Samsung has used
it to signal the end of a wash cycle for years, sparking debate over whether
it's the catchiest washing machine song and inspiring at least one violinist
to perform a duet with her machine. It's been a source of delight for many
Samsung customers, but for Albino, hearing the jingle appropriated on
YouTube only inspired ire.

"A guy recorded his fucking washing machine and uploaded it to YouTube with
Content ID," Albino said in a video on X. "And now I'm getting copyright
claims" while "my money" is "going into the toilet and being given to this
fucking slime."

Albino suggested that YouTube had potentially allowed Audego to make invalid
copyright claims for years without detecting the seemingly obvious abuse.

"How is this still here?" Albino asked. "It took me one Google search to
figure this out," and "now I'm sharing revenue with this? That's insane."
...

Widespread Abuse of Content ID Continues

YouTubers have complained about abuse of Content ID for years.  Techdirt's
Timothy Geigner agreed with Albino's assessment that the YouTube system is
"hopelessly broken," noting that sometimes content is flagged by
mistake. But just as easily, bad actors can abuse the system to claim
"content that simply isn't theirs" and seize sometimes as much as millions
in ad revenue.

In 2021, YouTube announced that it had invested "hundreds of millions of
dollars" to create content management tools, of which Content ID quickly
emerged as the platform's go-to solution to detect and remove copyrighted
materials.

Subject: Oral-B bricking Alexa toothbrush is cautionary tale
 against buzzy tech (Ars Technica)

Scharon Harding, Ars Technica, 6/5/2024, 2:09 PM

Oral-B discontinued Alexa toothbrush in 2022, now sells $400 "AI"
toothbrush.

On 15 Feb 2024, Oral-B bricked the Guide's ability to set up Alexa by
discontinuing the Oral-B Connect app required to complete the process.
Guide owners can still use the Oral-B App for other features; however, the
ability to use the charging base like an Alexa smart speaker—a big draw in
the product’s announcement and advertising—is seriously limited.

The device should still work with Alexa if users set it up before
Oral-B shuttered Connect, but setting up a new Wi-Fi connection or
reestablishing a lost one doesn't work without Connect.

"As developers and users alike have been learning over the past year,
the quality of the data that is used to train AI systems is tied very
closely to the accuracy of results. Currently, the best results are
obtained with systems that use manually curated data and the worst are
obtained from systems that are uncurated."

With AI datasets pushing past petabytes into exabytes, automation must
be applied. Pre-training curation can cull extraneous training
stimulus, but will it reduce false-positive/negative AI results that

You cannot rely on client requirements for prioritization of security

"Work with security application teams to develop cloud architecture

No, no. You don't get "Security" and "Does not follow industry guidance".

Of course, Deloitte failed to define which of the CTSO's they were

Security Officer (CISO), or Chief Security Officer (CSO)?

I am concerned that Deloitte's approach to Cyber Risk may be

Re: "If AI Can Do Your Job, Maybe It Can Also Replace Your CEO (NYTimes)'

1) I say if businesses/companies/corporations outsource everything
  else (manufacturing, design, programming, service, maintenance) then
  turnabout is fair play.  It's time to outsource the president/CEO
  and board.  Look at any proxy and they say how board members from
  other companies "bring in experience and new ideas".  So does AI,
  machine learning, etc.  Or an outsourcing company with a more
  experienced staff.

2) The Twilight Zone predicted this in 1964 with
  "The Brain Center at Whipple's"

- the president's message about factory automation and mass layoffs
  was given by film instead of in person, predicting the impersonal &
  demoralizing use of Zoom/tele-conferences for "downsizing".

- the "dark factory": no people anywhere

- even the repair technician quit. It's too darned lonely.

- eventually the one person left (the president) was replaced by a
  robot with his same nervous habit (swinging his keychain) and
  perhaps the same neurosis?
