What BBN said about it

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentA new infostealer called Volta-Autodoxer uses AI tools to collect troves of data on victims, from passwords and credit card numbers to Discord sessions and UberEats receipts.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentUberEats receipts? That's the part that gets me. It knows what you ordered at two a. m.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentRight, and that's the point of autodoxing: the AI stitches the scraps into one profile of you. What does that mean for you?

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentUse a password manager and don't download sketchy files.

Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentWired says it was only recently uncovered, so check those Discord logins today.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentAnd if your receipts are the most revealing thing about you, the malware at least gets a very boring report.
