# Scammers are using AI to lure shoppers to fake businesses

Wait for it...

Wait for it...

There it is!

> The Advertising Standards Agency ... said social media platforms also had their part to play in tackling the issue.

@neil This is going to be the tip of a pin stuck in an iceberg.

I'm frankly amazed at how long it is taking for criminals to weaponise #LLMs like this. Even my spam email is still trivial to spot.

As with cybersecurity, regulation is non-existent and governments don't care or are made up of people who only know what lobbyists bother to tell them.

I despair...

...and keep working on #AutonomiDweb

I've been hearing about #AutonomiDweb few times.

PREFACE | INTRO
I welcome #p2p tech, that does work and is proven. I have an opinion that as of today, people of Earth already have proven, good & legit p2p comminication tools that I mentioned in my posts/feed. And one of the problems that those mentioned, existing (for 10+ years) p2p platforms doesn't get enough of users, adoption.
I review each NEW p2p project with skepsis, because it could split already small userbase. And I've seen some red herring projects, fake pseudo p2p.

Here are my first, surface, honest, unfiltered impressions about #AutonomiDweb

First looks, messy raw UX preview
step 1: opens https://toast.happybeing.com/first-post.html , it links to awe.
+ they mostly use Rust. that's a good sign.
- some usage of js, kotlin - not a fan of that.
+ macOS build instructions
+ AppImage
- no windows, bsd, non-linux build instruction.
> notices https://github.com/happybeing/awe moved to https://github.com/happybeing/dweb
~ confusing terminology. is it same dweb as in https://getdweb.net/ ?
- no mobile support
- no mention of privacy, anonimity, garlic\onion routing ( #i2p) layer or transport traffic protection against firewalls on protocol layer, that's big minus in era of DPI firewalls and some countries blockage 443 & other traffic, vpn, from time to time.
> + notices it utilized SOLID. interesting. but they won't fix concept of DNS, CA ?
+ https://autonomi.com able to read without JS. that's a plus.
- > footer of the site. well, if you say you represent some values to stand for some (our & mine) communities. maybe you should ditch discord for xmpp, X for mastodon, and Reddit for Lemmy ? huh? Think about that.
I think we could continue the review after this get fixed/changed @happyborg .

With kindness & respect.

🚨 Porn censorship is going to destroy the entire internet 🚨

🫣 IDs link you to every click
🫣 Centralized databases risk leaks & abuse
❌ No anonymity possible

Politicians want to trade #privacy for “protection.”

@Tutanota
And it will encourage more people to seek out alternatives, including #AutonomiDweb

This can't be censored and is end to end encrypted so you don't need a VPN.

Using dweb you can publish websites to Autonomi and view them in a standard browser. This includes dynamic apps storing and fetching data directly on Autonomi.

This will give vulnerable people, including children access to vital information and safe spaces.

Try to start a credit union to escape predatory banking? Regulatory nightmare.

Create a community land trust? Zoning violation.

Build your own internet infrastructure? Corporate lawsuits.

The system has perfected the art of channeling dissent into meaningless activities. Petitions, permitted protests, voting for pre-selected candidates (WHO CHEAT IN PRIMARIES), writing to representatives who send form letters back

Start another online petition! Who cares?
