When AI agents go rogue, who's liable?
@hartzog warns of "massive liability on both the criminal and civil side." @rcalo flags the gap: negligence and intent are hard to prove with unpredictable AI, leaving "victims without perpetrators."

❗️ The Dutch intelligence service AIVD is warning people not to hold confidential conversations in or near their cars, saying the microphones in many modern vehicles can technically be switched on remotely to eavesdrop.
Some state actors can request car data from carmakers and other companies or hack in to get it themselves, the agency says.
It advises skipping wireless charging and Bluetooth or Wi-Fi pairing, using a USB data blocker and not taking a car with an external camera to a sensitive location.
