Stop cranking stuff out. That is the first move John Henkel wants every product marketer to make before they touch another asset. In this episode of Content Amplified, John, who leads product marketing for the AV segment at Netgear, shares how he keeps content tied to a real user and a real purpose instead of a list of specs. John walks through where engineering-led companies drift away from the problem they actually solve, how he uses trade-show conversations and weekly sales-team meetings to validate the user before a piece ships, and the trick of picking up the phone to get integrators invested in feedback so they tell you what is wrong instead of saying "looks great." He also shares the simple spreadsheet audit he is running right now at Netgear, mapping every asset to its audience and desired action so the team can see what to keep, kill, or rebuild. If your content calendar is full but your sales team is not asking for what you ship, this one is for you.About JohnJohn Henkel leads product marketing for the AV segment of Netgear's business division, where he has spent the last six and a half years bridging the AV and IT worlds. Before Netgear, John spent roughly fifteen years as a video editor making commercials and longer-form content, then moved to the manufacturer side at a series of AV companies, picking up product management, tech writing, and marketing along the way. He describes himself as a marketer who learned the craft from the user side of the equation, which shapes how he thinks about every piece of content his team ships.Show Notes- Connect with John on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/henkel/Text us what you think about this episode!

This week on the Higher Ed AV Podcast, Joe Way tries something brand new: the first-ever No Context Flash Pitch. The concept is simple, chaotic, and exactly what makes the higher ed AV community so special. Guests jump on live, get two minutes, and can pitch anything they want. A product. A booth. A project. A tip. A warning. A reason to get excited for InfoComm. No prep. No polish. No sponsor package. Just real people, real energy, and real reasons to show up. What follows is a fast-paced, community-powered preview of InfoComm 2026, featuring manufacturers, HETMA partners, higher ed professionals, and longtime AV friends sharing what they are bringing to the show floor and why it matters for the higher education vertical. Bert Feldman, INOGENI Bert Feldman, U.S. Sales Director at INOGENI, kicks off the Flash Pitch format with a powerhouse overview of the company's growing AV and UC portfolio. He previews INOGENI's latest work around USB, USB-C, IP, multi-camera switching, BYOM, room system flexibility, and automated classroom capture workflows. The headline is CamTrack, INOGENI's multi-camera automated switching solution designed to support active learning spaces, lecture capture rooms, hybrid classrooms, and flexible teaching environments. Bert also highlights INOGENI's IP-to-USB converter, Dante-enabled workflows, the upcoming U-BRIDGE USB-C extender, and the award-winning TOGGLE series. For higher ed, the message is clear: INOGENI is helping campuses simplify the complicated spaces where cameras, microphones, computers, and collaboration platforms all need to work together without friction. John Palazinski, GUDE Systems John Palazinski from GUDE Systems brings the perfect mix of product preview, HETMA partnership, and show-floor energy. He talks about GUDE's strong involvement with HETMA, including participation in the HETMA Approved evaluation program, and previews new products coming to InfoComm, including an updated AC/DC box, a new UPS box, and GUDE's cloud software for managing power and connected devices. For higher ed institutions, John's pitch is about more than power. It is about reliability, remote management, uptime, and giving AV teams better tools to support the rooms their campuses depend on every day. He also teases a special gift for HETMA members who stop by the booth, proving once again that swag and smart infrastructure can absolutely coexist. Renee Benson, Sony Renee Benson from Sony joins from the road and still manages to bring the heart of the episode into focus: relationships. Sony lists Renee Benson among its HETMA recognitions as “Best Vendor Rep,” and Sony's InfoComm 2026 page lists booth C8301.  Renee previews Sony's InfoComm presence, including new BRAVIA displays, P-Series and S-Series solutions, LED offerings, and the opportunity for attendees to connect directly with Sony's regional teams. Her segment is a reminder that technology is only part of the equation. In higher ed AV, trust matters. Relationships matter. Having vendor partners who understand the campus environment matters. Renee's pitch captures exactly why the best vendor relationships feel less transactional and more like an extension of the community. Michael Gunderson, Highland Community College One of our most experienced HETMA members, Michael Gunderson, uses his two minutes to deliver a fantastic InfoComm survival guide for first-time attendees. The advice is practical gold: download the app, mark the vendors you want to see, study the floor layout, learn the numbering system, find the restrooms, locate the free food and water, and give yourself time to understand the show before trying to sprint through it. He also shouts out the HETMA booth, morning coffee, happy hours, peer networking, and the importance of making real connections. This segment turns into one of the most useful parts of the episode because it reminds everyone that InfoComm can be overwhelming, but it does not have to be. With the right plan and the right community, the biggest AV show in North America can feel a whole lot smaller. Brandy Johnson, PTZOptics Brandy Johnson from PTZOptics brings big energy and a bold preview of what the company is bringing to InfoComm. She talks about PTZOptics stepping into a new era as an employee-owned company, complete with new branding, new booth energy, and a stronger focus on complete video workflows. Her pitch centers on interoperability, partner ecosystems, and helping attendees experience how PTZOptics products work inside real AV environments. Brandy highlights the Link 4K, Dante AV-H workflows, hands-on test-drive stations, partner integrations with companies like NETGEAR and INOGENI, new 4K products, updated web GUI capabilities, and voice-tracking integrations. For higher ed, this is where PTZOptics shines. Brandy positions their solutions not just as cameras, but as part of a larger teaching, learning, streaming, and content creation ecosystem. It is about giving campuses flexible, scalable video tools that actually fit the way classrooms, lecture halls, studios, and hybrid spaces operate. Bill O'Donnell, Babson College Bill O'Donnell from Babson College joins from the end-user side and offers one of the most important reminders of the episode: do not skip the small booths. A Crestron case study identifies Bill O'Donnell as an Instructional Technology Integration Specialist in Media Services at Babson College.  Bill talks about the value of walking the show floor with curiosity, especially in the smaller booths where emerging companies and early-stage ideas often appear before the larger manufacturers adopt them. He points to the evolution of tracking camera technology as an example, noting how innovations that once looked niche can eventually become major parts of the AV ecosystem. His segment is a perfect higher ed perspective: innovation does not always announce itself with the biggest booth, the loudest demo, or the most expensive buildout. Sometimes the next big thing is tucked away in a corner, waiting for the right campus technologist to notice it. Jason Jenkins, Studiomatic Jason Jenkins from Studiomatic jumps in after seeing Joe's LinkedIn post and delivers a compelling pitch for the continuing evolution of one-button studios. Studiomatic's own site identifies Jason Jenkins as the developer behind its One Button Studio solutions.  Jason explains how he has spent years building simple, powerful presentation recording systems that allow faculty, staff, students, and creators to walk in with a PowerPoint, press one button, and leave with a finished video. He previews the One Button Studio Pro, the mobile or desk-based One Button Studio Go, and the upcoming One Button Studio Solo. The magic is in the simplicity: no production crew, no complicated login process, no editing headache, and no steep learning curve. Just an intuitive kiosk-style system designed to make high-quality content creation accessible. For higher ed, Jason's segment is especially relevant. Campuses are still looking for better ways to support lecture capture, faculty media creation, student presentations, online learning content, and self-service production spaces. Studiomatic's approach makes those workflows approachable, repeatable, and scalable. HETMA at InfoComm 2026 Joe closes the episode by previewing the full HETMA experience at InfoComm 2026. HETMA's week includes the Higher Education Summit, the Higher Ed AV Awards, the HETMA booth, morning coffee, happy hours, show floor tours, live podcasting, booth activations, and the kind of hallway conversations that often become the most valuable part of the entire show. The HETMA InfoComm 2026 page lists the booth as C6023 and outlines a full week of higher ed-focused programming from June 15–19, 2026.  Joe also previews the new VIP Qualified-Buyers After-Hours Reception, designed to connect higher ed decision-makers with manufacturers, integrators, and partners around real projects, real budgets, and real needs. The goal is not just networking for networking's sake. It is matchmaking with purpose. Episode Takeaway This episode proves that InfoComm is not just about products. It is about people, timing, trust, curiosity, and community. From INOGENI's automated camera workflows to GUDE's power management, Sony's display ecosystem, PTZOptics' video innovation, Babson's end-user perspective, Studiomatic's one-button content creation, and HETMA's community-first show strategy, this Flash Pitch episode captures the best of what makes higher ed AV different. It is a little unpredictable. It is a little chaotic. And it is exactly the kind of energy that makes people want to be part of the room.

News and Updates: Roblox Age Tiers: Roblox is introducing "Roblox Kids" and "Roblox Select" tiers in June, implementing strict chat and content restrictions based on age-specific maturity labels. Roblox now requires video selfies or ID uploads for chat usage, despite concerns over biometric data privacy and the resale of verified accounts. Netgear FCC Exemption: The FCC granted Netgear a temporary exemption from the foreign-made router ban after the Defense Department found no national security risks. Meta Overtakes Google: Meta is projected to become the world's top digital advertiser this year, surpassing Google with an estimated $243.46 billion in net revenue. Meta's success is fueled by Reels and AI recommendation systems, which increased U.S. watch time by 30% and improved video-generation ad tools. Windows 11 De-branding: Microsoft is removing "Copilot" branding from apps like Notepad and Snipping Tool, opting for more generic labels like "Writing Tools" and "Advanced features." Netflix Price Hikes: Netflix raised monthly subscription prices for every tier by up to 12.5%, with the Premium ad-free plan now reaching a high of $27.

In this podcast, Jon Westfall and I discussed the FCC's ban on foreign-made routers, noting that Netgear received a unique exception until October 2027. This led us to consider the merits of "rolling your own" router using OpenWrt and a supported consumer WiFi router, or a Raspberry Pi to maintain better control over home gateways. I've also started testing the new Gemini Mac OS app, which features a convenient global shortcut and the ability to analyze any active window on your desktop. While its Google Photos integration still struggles with "snout ID" for pet photos, its local file handling makes it a powerful addition to my daily toolkit. We also tackled the 8GB RAM debate, finding that the MacBook Neo performs remarkably well for most users because Apple optimizes its OS for its hardware so efficiently. We compared this to the increasingly bloated experience of Windows 11, which forces users to have 16GB or more of RAM. Jon shared his experience upgrading to Google One AI Pro to leverage NotebookLM for his university courses, transforming long lectures into concise, AI-generated study materials. He even demonstrated the value of paid AI tiers by building a custom Strength Tempo Trainer web app in just 20 minutes using Codex. We discussed the "AI divide" comparing free AI tiers to paid ones. Finally, I've found Alexa Plus surprisingly useful for troubleshooting Amazon specific and Echo device glitches through its browser-based interface.

The show begins with Vision Pro, including the latest visionOS 26.5 beta, which brings incremental improvements, and a key development: Apple Business Essentials now supports Vision Pro. This signals Apple's growing push into enterprise and device management for spatial computing. A major highlight is the release of a $30,000 immersive camera designed for Vision Pro content creation. While clearly aimed at professionals, it underscores Apple's long-term commitment to immersive media and high-end production workflows. The discussion turns serious with news of a tragic accident during the filming of an immersive video project. The panel reflects on the risks involved in high-intensity filming and the broader implications for this emerging medium. On the Mac side, the MacBook Neo continues to dominate conversation. Demand has exceeded expectations, prompting Apple to significantly increase production. The panel explores how the Neo is disrupting the market, especially as competitors like Microsoft raise prices on their Surface lineup. There's also discussion around AI workloads driving demand for Apple silicon devices like the Mac mini. Google enters the mix with the release of its Gemini app for macOS, completing the trio of major AI platforms with native Mac apps. The panel discusses usability, competition, and privacy concerns tied to AI adoption. Regulatory confusion around a proposed U.S. router ban sparks debate, with questions about security, transparency, and how these decisions are communicated. Additional topics include a new event-focused music app called Wedding Player, improvements to Apple Watch repair processes in stores, and a redesigned YouTube Music interface. The episode wraps with excitement around Macstock 2026, including expanded programming and special guest appearances.

In FOLLOW UP, while countries race to ban kids from social media, Estonia is opting out — its education minister arguing that bans just offload responsibility onto kids while governments and platforms avoid accountability. Australia already shows the limits: 61% of banned kids are still online, 70% say it's easy to bypass, and major platforms are under investigation. The EU is rolling out an age-verification system using zero-knowledge proofs officials call “completely anonymized,” which sounds generous for a system that starts profiling you the moment it touches an account. Maybe retire the anonymity talking point.IN THE NEWS, the AI-brain-rot narrative keeps accelerating: one study found just ten minutes of AI use increases dependency and degrades performance once it's removed — with users simply “not willing to try.” ChatGPT praised a fart-noise “song” as having a “cool lo-fi, late-night, slightly eerie vibe,” which would be harmless if that same sycophancy wasn't showing up in darker contexts — including two mass shootings with ChatGPT in the background, and a lawsuit from a San Francisco woman claiming the tool helped her ex escalate harassment with AI-generated reports and threats. That same week, Sam Altman's house was attacked by a suspect targeting AI execs. Elsewhere: France is ditching Windows for Linux; Amazon faces scrutiny for allegedly keeping workers on shift next to a dead colleague; Snap cut 16% of staff blaming AI; Reddit is fighting an ICE subpoena to unmask a critic; Google is blending Polymarket odds into News; the FAA is recruiting gamers as air traffic controllers; and Allbirds briefly became an “AI company,” spiked, then crashed when reality set back in. Norway quietly cured another HIV patient, the rare story that isn't bleak.In APPS & DOODADS, California and New York are pushing DRM-style censorware for 3D printers, with New York tying it to felony penalties for certain files. The FCC's router ban is already inconsistent — Netgear got a quiet exemption while others face an opaque process that could stall Wi-Fi 7. The Trump T1 phone still looks rough at $499 with a $100 preorder hook. Overcast raised its subscription to $29.99/year. Hidden iOS trick: long-press the App Store to go directly to Updates. Meta, after a $375M loss over child safety, is developing “Name Tag,” facial recognition for Ray-Ban glasses tied to Instagram — widely condemned — and reportedly plans to roll it out quietly. They're also building an AI Zuckerberg clone for internal use. For older Kindles: jailbreak, use Calibre, and lean on Project Gutenberg.MEDIA CANDY: Live Nation was ruled a monopoly — remedies pending, appeal already filed, so ticket prices aren't changing soon. Anna's Archive got hit with a $322M judgment for scraping Spotify — far below the $13T ask. YouTube Premium is quietly raising prices again, following Netflix and Spotify; subscriptions are now a one-way ratchet. Good Omens returns May 13, Godzilla Minus Zero lands November 6, and Hunt for Gollum is set for December 2027 with a stacked cast. Meanwhile, streaming platforms still refuse to list actual drop times, which continues to annoy everyone.THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE: The Claude Mythos AI scare turned out to be marketing. The hype cycle giveth, and taketh away.

The AI vibes continue to find all-time lows. David and Nilay open the show by talking through the absurd Allbirds pivot to AI, the attacks on Sam Altman, and the increasing divide between what AI companies say is inevitable and what people actually want.

OpenAI vs Microsoft, Uber's Surprise AI Coding Bills, Netgear's Router Exemption, and Nvidia's Overnight Engineering Win   Jim Love covers four enterprise tech stories: OpenAI claims its partnership with Microsoft is limiting its ability to reach enterprise customers, especially those on AWS Bedrock, amid Copilot criticism and reported access tensions; Uber warns that rapid adoption of AI coding tools and usage-based token billing is driving costs beyond expected budgets and could signal broader enterprise spend shocks; Netgear becomes the first to win an FCC exemption from U.S. restrictions on foreign-made routers, highlighting stricter security and supply-chain expectations; and Nvidia reports a major productivity gain, saying an AI-powered GPU can reduce a chip design library porting task from eight engineers over 10 months to overnight, while internal models like Chip Nemo help train and support engineers, though fully autonomous chip design remains far off.

SEC Announces It Will Not Respond to Most No-Action Requests for Rule 14a-8 Shareholder Proposals.Government shutdown - the staff claimed they COULDN'T respond because after the shutdown, they had too much other work to do: “current resource and timing considerations following the lengthy government shutdown and the large volume of registration statements and other filings requiring prompt staff attention.” It just happens to coincide with Atkins saying there shouldn't be shareholder proposals, that's just a coincidence.John Cheveddan and Jim McRitchie - let's be honest, if it weren't for Cheveddan and McRitchie over 3 decades, we'd have less shareholder rights, and companies would not be such big whiners about “woke” shareholder proposals. Guys, you ruined it for all of us with your attention to democracy.Woke ESG shareholders like As You Sow, Arjuna, Trillium, and nuns - if we're honest, the nuns and SRI crowd might have been the straw, right? I mean they're putting in proposals that MAKE Exxon sue them! How dare they ask for carbon scope 3 emissions data!Antiwoke shareholders like NCPPR and Jesus - excluding Cheveddan/McRitchie, the highest volume of shareholder proposals have actually been the ANTI-woke filers, asking for things like a report on how companies will stop funding trans conversions (or one actual one where they asked about the reputational risk of NOT supporting un-trans-ing). Some of the proposals are so comically stupid, but the companies have to respond using third party lawyers and do the whole thing - maybe National Legal whatever center for whatever is the REAL straw?ISS and Glass Lewis - this was like 90% of what they did, since they certainly didn't suggest voting against any directors unless an activist was involved. So when Ramaswamy and Musk and DeSantis and Texas declared proxy advisors woke activists, it was hard to deny since they didn't do any work to vote out directors - just offer customers whatever voting pablum they wantedBlackRock and investors who never voted anywayOther - Atkins and Manhattan institute - lobbyists, administrationPepsi to cut product offering nearly 20% in deal with $4 billion activist ElliottPepsiCo said it also plans to accelerate the introduction of new offerings with simpler and more functional ingredients, including Doritos Protein and Simply NKD Cheetos and Doritos, which contain no artificial flavors or colors. The company also recently introduced a prebiotic version of its signature cola..WHO DO YOU BLAME?Pepsi CEO Ramon Laguarta - CEO since 2018, 21% influence, 43% connected to the board (so they're basically all known entities), has overseen basically zero shareholder value increase in the last 5 years, overall .513 TSR batting average - what has he been doing? Did he put a sign on the door begging an activist to come hang?Activist Elliott Management - Paul Singer is notorious as a real foodie… wait, no, sorry, he's known as a “vulture capitalist” who helped oust Jack Dorsey from Twitter because he didn't want him to hang in Africa, but was happy to have Elon Musk (who has five jobs) take it over. In 2021, he did take a 3% stake in Ahold Delhaize, a grocery store owner, so he's probably had a protein shake sprinkled on Doritos before?Pepsi's board - first of all, it's 14 people, which is like 7 people too many. Second - 4 finance types? Two pharma/med types? There are more people who know medicine than food - only ONE agribusiness repped on the board (Bunge) with the only other food production from Pepsi or ex-Pepsi execs? There are three directors on the nom committee with 10+ years on the board, and the other two have.. 9 years. Vasella has been there 23 years - time for some turnover.Roberto P. Martínez (International Chief Commercial Officer and CEO of New Revenue Streams) and Tara Glasgow (Executive Vice President and Chief Science Officer) - someone needs to be held responsible for Doritos Protein and Simply NKD CheetosJimmy Kimmel signs ABC extension through 2027Most of Kimmel's recent renewals have been multiyear extensions. There was no immediate word on whose choice it was to extend his current contract by one year.WHO DO YOU BLAME?Bob Iger - he yanked Kimmel to kiss Brendan Carr's ass and the affiliates, then put him back on when subscribers cancelled, then convinced affiliates to re-air, all because Kimmel said conservatives really didn't want Kirk's killer to be conservative? Now Kimmel is EXTENDED? It has to be the dumbest series of events since “Don't Say Gay” bill in Chapek's era, right?Disney's board - these are well known directors in the bag for Iger, and Iger would not even be CEO again if not for them. Susan Arnold, who at the time had more influence on the board than Iger, was chair of the nominating committee, had Mel Lagomasino and Derica Rice on with her, all went with Iger's hand picked choice of Bob Chapek. Arnold left the board, but both Rice and Lagomasino stayed behind to help choose… Bob Iger to return? Then brought on James Gorman, who hand picked HIS successor, to lead succession with Bob Iger again? Is anyone doing a job on this board? ISS - when Nelson Peltz took his Ike Perlmutter borrowed stake in Disney in 2024, ISS sided with Peltz and suggested voting out Mel Lagamasino because she was the longest tenured director and “responsible” for Disney's failed succession. In 2025, after Peltz lost and no one cared, ISS backed Lagamasino. With analysis like that, it's no wonder Disney can bow to the Trump Administration since there's no way ISS will actually suggest changing the board unless an old racist takes a stake.Brendan Carr - is this just a finger in the eye of Carr, the FCC, and the angry conservative affiliates by Iger? Is this Disney's way of being woke now?Other - Baby Doll Dixon, Jimmy Kimmel's agent - should have gotten him a 10 year deal with a player option out. Optically way better, gets bought out if they fire him.Trump says Netflix, WBD deal could be 'problem' as son-in-law Kushner backs Paramount bid“I'll be involved in that decision too,” Trump said days after Netflix agreed to buy WBD's film studiosParamount revealed in a regulatory filing that its hostile bid for WBD bid is being backed by Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who is a former White House advisor - and every Middle Eastern sovereign fund, as well as over $40bn by Larry Ellison (and David Ellison committed to spend more in a text to co-CEO Ted SarandosWHO DO YOU BLAME?Larry Ellison - without daddy's $40bn (and more - what's $40bn when you have $269bn in net worth and own an island in Hawaii), there is no deal - literally no deal, this is pure nepo - THE OLIGARCHYMiddle Eastern sovereign funds - I mean, they're involved in EVERY major deal of a conservative figure (Musk/Twitter, Musk/Grok, Ellison/Paramount, Ellison/TikTok, Trump/Air Force One) and are backing another consolidation. Is this the greatest capitalist manipulation ever? Dictator capitalism?Robby Starbuck - he claimed “victory” in the Skydance acquisition terms for killing DEI at Paramount, used the opportunity to lick the boot of Brendan Carr, who is almost guaranteed to investigate Netflix given their wokeness. Somehow it's all Robby Starbuck's fault, right?WBD chair Sam Di Piazza - a near lifer at PwC as an accountant until he want to Citi as an i-banker for a stint, served on AT&T's board… an ACCOUNTANT is running the show! No one has heard of him, he's not in any of the news, but ostensibly he (and the board) approved the Netflix deal after dealing with Baby Ellison. The board is the only group that gets all the bids, compares them, and ultimately decides what to agree on and send to shareholders. If they chose Baby Ellison to avoid him throwing a temper tantrum to daddy, there's no hostile takeover and conservatives can rejoice in owning all of media, right? Snap appoints Arlo CEO Matthew McRae to board of directorsPrior to his current role as CEO of Arlo Technologies, which he has held since August 2018, McRae served as Senior Vice President of Strategy at NETGEAR and as Chief Technology Officer at VIZIO for over seven yearsWHO DO YOU BLAME?Evan Spiegel - he owns 53.1% of voting power - there is no one else to blameRobert Murphy - he owns 46.4% of voting power - what if he doesn't like Matt McRae? Do they resort to a thumb war? Who are we kidding, it's still Evan Spiegel's faultInvestors, who, for whatever reason, have OK'ed the idea of dual class shares such that Spiegel and Murphy own 99.5% of the voting power and less than 8% of the economic interest - while Fidelity owns 14.6% of the shares that control 0% of the overall vote. It was banned from index inclusion because the shares had NO voting rights - but somehow Meta is ALLOWED on every index because you have voting rights even if you can NEVER EVER WIN as Zuck owns control. What's the fucking difference??Worst CEOs of the Year Evan Spiegel of Snap

This week, our hosts ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dave Bittner⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Joe Carrigan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Maria Varmazis⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (also host of the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠T-Minus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Space Daily show) are sharing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines. We start with some follow-up, listener Jay shared how Robinhood tackled a $25.4 billion phone scam problem with a simple fix—a bright yellow in-call banner that warns users, “We're not calling you. If the caller says they're from Robinhood, they're not—hang up.” Meanwhile, Myanmar's military blew up a major online scam center at KK Park, forcing over 1,500 people to flee into Thailand. Listener JJ reminds us it's “CAC cards,” not just “CAC,” and Shannon reports from Scooter's Coffee, where customers are now bringing chickens for pup cups—proving some pets really do rule the roost. Maria's story is on Bitdefender and NETGEAR's 2025 IoT Security Report, which found smart homes now face triple the attacks of last year—about 29 a day. Dave's story is on a cloud architect who exposed his AWS keys online, letting attackers hijack his account for crypto-mining and phishing. His takeaway: secure keys, limit privileges, and assume it can happen to you. Joe's got the story of scammers posing as banks or the FTC, using fake security alerts to trick older adults into draining their savings. The FTC says losses are skyrocketing—so don't move money or trust surprise calls or pop-ups. Our catch of the day comes from the Scams SubReddit, where a scammer got way more than what they signed up for in a text chain. Resources and links to stories: Robinhood LinkedIn post.

Microsoft 365 Copilot has been identified as having a significant security vulnerability known as Echo Leak, which allows hackers to access sensitive information without user interaction. This zero-click exploit was discovered by AIM Security after three months of reverse engineering the software. Although Microsoft claims the issue has been addressed and no customers were affected, experts warn that this flaw reflects deeper security concerns in AI systems, reminiscent of vulnerabilities seen in software two decades ago. The incident raises critical questions about the security of AI agents that have ambient access to data and the need for rethinking endpoint protection and trust boundaries.OpenAI's latest threat report reveals that state-level actors, including those linked to North Korea and Russia, are exploiting ChatGPT for cyber operations. The report outlines ten operations that were shut down, including the generation of fake job applications and social media content aimed at spreading disinformation. Notably, some campaigns were traced back to China, showcasing the use of AI in creating deceptive online personas. This highlights the strategic use of AI by malicious actors, emphasizing the need for heightened awareness and security measures.ConnectWise is facing scrutiny over its recent digital certificate updates, urging customers to update their ScreenConnect, Automate, and ConnectWise RMM solutions. The company is attempting to distance itself from a previously disclosed nation-state breach while addressing concerns raised by a third-party researcher regarding configuration data handling. The rushed certificate rotation has led to reduced confidence among customers, especially given the recent history of exploitation of ScreenConnect. This situation underscores the importance of transparency and trust in vendor relationships, as well as the need for managed service providers to audit their update processes.New tools from Huntress, Netgear, and Varonis signal a shift towards more automated and resilient security solutions. Huntress has launched a Threat Simulator to enhance user engagement in security training, while Netgear's acquisition of Exium aims to simplify networking and security for managed service providers. Varonis has introduced a Model Context Protocol Server to integrate AI tools into its data security platform. These developments reflect a growing trend in cybersecurity towards realism, automation, and simplification, emphasizing the need for IT service providers to adapt and align with these evolving security landscapes. Three things to know today 00:00 From Copilot to Cybercrime: How AI Agents Are Creating New Frontlines in Espionage and Misinformation05:54 ConnectWise Urges Immediate Updates Amid Certificate Rotation, Rekindling Security Concerns After Prior Breach08:45 Automation, Engagement, and Recovery: Security Vendors Roll Out Tools That Align with MSP Priorities Supported by: https://www.huntress.com/mspradio/https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?
