“The initial data leak was… 1 million lines of data for Ashkenazi people.”

“The information… includes full names, usernames, profile photos, sex, date of birth, genetic ancestry results, and geographical location.”

Well, that’s surely not going to be a fucking problem. (sarcastically)

I’m starting to believe that cramming a half baked tech into every possible system may not be a great idea.
When the folks at BleepingComputer visited the AI-recommended spam sites themselves, they were met with a barrage of scammy fake captcha and YouTube pages designed to trick visitors into subscribing to spammy browser notifications that flood their computers with unwanted advertisements — some of which sought personal information from users — and even browser extensions that hijack search queries. In other words, Google's SGE led BeepingComputer directly to fraudulent malware.
