C-SPAN.orgFormer President Obama Campaigns with VP Harris in AtlantaFor the first time on the campaign trail, former President Barack Obama appeared with 2024 Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris in Clarkston, Georgia. Former President Obama told supporters that if elected, VP Harris will be focused on the American people and not on her ego, while suggesting that former President Trump is focused on power and his money. Former President Obama also criticized former President Trump on his "concept of a plan" to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act saying VP Harris doesn't have a concept, but rather an actual plan to improve health care in the United States. The Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris took aim at former President Trump's economic plan saying it's "time to turn the page" on the former president and his policies. Prior to their remarks, singer Bruce Springsteen performed and endorsed the VP for president.

Hey hacker fam, I will see you next week at #VirusBulletin in #Dublin. Looking forward to seeing you there.

I'm going to be speaking about my experience as a political #candidate last year with my campaign being targeted for #phishing and #BEC, how I fought back, and what political candidates and campaigns can do to protect themselves.

I'll also be discussing some upcoming research on electioneering #deepfakes and #disinformation #campaigns. As you might know, I supported a Colorado bill (leg.colorado.gov/bills/hb24-11) signed into law this year that attempts to do something about this looming problem.

Long read including interview with 🙋‍♂️ in 🇳🇱 newspaper de Volkskrant on AI and elections.

On disinformation, targeting, electoral integrity, fostering conflict and confusion, the role of voters and responsibility of political actors.

It is very good that media pay attention to and cover these developments, creating awareness without contributing to fear-mongering.
