    This episode digs into North Korean hackers weaponizing job interviews to infect developers, the concerning reality that CISA was shut out from testing Anthropic's security AI tool, and Meta's new policy of tracking every keystroke and mouse click to train its AI models. It's a Signal Check packed with uncomfortable truths about who gets access, who gets targeted, and what counts as consent in the age of surveillance capitalism.

We also explore the EU's rushed age-verification app that researchers dismantled in minutes, and why your push notifications might be leaking more metadata than you think.
