The fastest way to make me distrust your product.
 These posts use fake cheating, revenge, and family drama to trigger real emotional reactions. 
The outrage drives comments, the algorithm spreads the post, and the company gets millions of views. 
For me, this is the fastest way for a company to

Your car’s electronics could be a fingerprint?
 A surveillance company called Leonardo is marketing SignalTrace, a system that detects electronics traveling together (like phones, smartwatches, fitness trackers, RFID tags and infotainment systems) and uses that combination to help recognize a vehi

Personalized backpacks are cute, but I skip them.

They usually cost more, are harder to pass down, and it feels risky to display a kids name (especially if you post them online).
 Personally, I use luggage tags, labels inside the bag, or painter’s tape that I can remove later.

Turning dress-up shoes into less of a hazard. My daughter loves all the princess dress-up stuff but I hated watching her slip all over the hardwood floors so I added some stick-on rubber soles, and now she can actually walk in them. 🙌 #ParentingTips #ChildSafety #MomHack #girlmom #t

AI Sycophancy is bigger than I thought. 

This is becoming one of the biggest media literacy issues of the AI era: search engines that mirror bias back at us as “the answer.” 

In this case, wasps were a low stakes example, but imagine something that actually matters- politics, medicine, finances,

🤖AI is powerful but it’s not perfect. It’s been years since my viral ‘strawberry’ video and AI still can’t spell. This is a reminder that we still need to double check pretty much everything AI says. Confidence isn’t the same as correct. #Ai #techtips #digitalliteracy #fail #t

Human can read this but bots can’t! (Although personally the video version is hard for me to read too) In any case, designer Eric Lu created a Decoy Font and a Ghost Font available through Mixfont, that allows humans to see one message, while AI may read another. 

It’s not encryption and A

@Spotify is cracking down on AI slop. It says it removed 75 million spam tracks in one year and they’ve begun testing AI disclosures as well, but they’re not banning AI music. Spotify believes AI could be used as a legitimate creative tool, but it doesn’t want spam gaming the royalty system

Your safety gear expires. Check yours to make sure it’s still good. ——————————- Tu equipo de seguridad se vencen. Así que revise los tuyos. #bilingual #safetytips #childsafety #safetyfirst #survival

Squishy toys can become a burn hazard when left in a hot car.
 The gel can get extremely hot and if the toy bursts, it can cause a serious burn.
 Check your car for these types of squishes and if one pops and sticks to the skin, do not pull it off (you could remove skin with it). Get medical help

The bob trend but make it privacy 🙃 Here’s what’s new: New Jersey banned companies from selling sensitive personal data like precise location, health, financial, biometric and children’s information. Connecticut passed a law creating a one-stop deletion system, so residents will eventuall

Look but don’t touch this Florida tree! Pond Apples are technically edible but the seeds can cause blindness as well as the bark and leaves. If you come across one wash your hands before touching anything else. Also the ones in the video aren’t ripe, they turn yellowish when ripe. #

Scammers want you to respond fast. That's part of their strategy, so taking a 9 second pause might be all you need to slow down and protect yourself from many scams. The next time you get an unexpected message, remember to count and take a 9 second pause. #sponsored #scamprevention #saf

Trafficking doesn’t always look like what you see in movies or viral posts. More often it looks like a disaster zone with overwhelmed shelters, children with no paperwork and no one looking for them. Right now thousands of children in Venezuela are displaced, separated from their families, a

All kids deserve safety. I appreciate the empathy in thinking of other families and that’s admirable but offering them expired car seats is not the solution. Instead I’d point them in the direction of finding safe seats. Some ideas: •contact the health dept. •visit a local SafeKids ca

Never pick up a used car seat. It could be expired like this one but also if you don’t know the history of the seat, it’s not safe. It could’ve been involved in a crash, washed incorrectly or poorly maintained, all of which can make a seat unusable. If you’re taking a family members car sea

Keep your fingers and remember no fireworks on heads or in the butt. 👍 #staysafe #fourthofjuly #safetytips

Learn from my mistake! Double check the username & if a platform flags it, trust that there’s a reason for it. I was in a rush and was quick to press send but if I had taken a pause, gone back to double check & gone into each profile to see the account, I would’ve realized I had picked the
