Tomas Kapler wrote that the company Apate has built a fleet of approximately 350,000 AI agents who impersonate trusting individuals and communicate with scammers for as long as possible. According to him, they gather information such as bank account numbers, cryptocurrency wallet addresses, phone numbers, and details about fraudulent websites and scenarios used. The company passes this data on to banks, telecommunications operators, and other institutions. Kapler reported that Apate has recorded over 2.5 million conversations with scammers, which together took about 17 years, and obtained more than 250,000 intelligence data points. He mentioned examples such as the Commonwealth Bank of Australia, which, according to him, saw publicly reported fraud losses drop by 76% after implementing the system, and TPG Telecom, which redirected nearly 590,000 suspicious calls to Apate's agents. One other Australian bank, according to his post, broke up 22 fraudulent campaigns based on the information obtained. He added that the company secured $8.15 million in a seed round in August 2026, just shy of $10 million in total, and planned to expand into London and the United States. Kapler also wrote that Apate expected the proliferation of AI among scammers would lead them to spend more time communicating with its agents instead of potential victims. Finally, Kapler asked whether a similar system would work in Czech. He noted that Czech models may not be as advanced, but older individuals might not regard any mishearing or misunderstanding as a sign of artificial intelligence. He also mentioned that fraudulent AI farms from India, China, Russia, and Ukraine might not recognize such a deception. #AI #podvodníci #technologie (translated)

Žan Mahnič thanked everyone who voted four times in favor at the Sunday referendums. He assessed that the result, despite greater engagement from the left, exceeded the expectations of the right. According to him, the campaign was supported by leftist parties, several dozen NGOs, influencers, unions, RTV Slovenia, and activists, who he claimed received funding from the state budget through calls for proposals, while only right-wing parties participated on the other side. Mahnič noted that the left expected a victory of 70 to 30, but that did not happen. He added that the two referendums won by the left were decided by a few hundred votes. He interpreted the result as confirmation that the direction of the government led by Janez Janša is supported by 50 percent of voters, even though surveys estimated support at around 40 percent, and in some areas considerably more than 50 percent. He assessed the political balance in Slovenia as 50:50 and predicted that in ten years, due to the voting habits of older and younger voters, it could turn in favor of the right. For the upcoming referendum on the intervention law for the development of Slovenia, he called for a joint campaign of advocates for lower taxes and less bureaucracy. He believed that right-wing parties alone would not be able to secure a victory and that artisans, entrepreneurs, retirees, students, healthcare workers, and others affected by the law should be involved. He attributed a stronger mobilization to the opposing side than that seen in the Sunday referendums and assessed that their concerns were not about Slovenia and the citizens' wallets, but rather their own benefits. Mahnič also warned of the possibility that there might be too few representatives of the advocates in the face-offs organized by RTV Slovenia compared to politicians, NGOs, unionists, and influencers on the opposing side. He urged those affected to actively engage in the campaign and asked what they were willing to do for collective success. #Slovenija #politika #referendum (translated)

The documentary "One Second" shows how a seemingly minor mistake can change human lives. The consequences of a traffic accident are borne not only by the victims but also by those who caused the accident and their loved ones. No one would want to be in their place. We believe that viewers will remember this when they sit behind the wheel, says Jan Matoušek, executive director of the Czech Insurance Association. #JedináVteřina #dopravnínehody #VítKlusák (translated)

The author objected to what he described as Kvapil's argument: that counting civilian casualties meant it was not genocide, even though, according to him, people were being killed by the hundreds and, in total, by the tens of thousands. He challenged this conclusion by referencing Srebrenica, where, according to him, only boys and men were murdered and the victims were selected according to a certain criterion. https://t.co/Gf8es2rLmI #genocida #Srebrenice #lidskáPráva #BA (translated)

Jan Betlach wrote that Chris Sidoti, a member of the UN commission investigating the occupied Palestinian territories and Israel, stated that the commission did not independently verify the claim that 83% of those killed in Gaza were civilians. According to Betlach, the commission's report mentioned this figure in paragraph 21 and cited The Guardian as the source. Sidoti reportedly answered a question about whether the commission verified the claim by saying that it did not and that it "simply doesn't know." Betlach reminded that the commission, established by the UN Human Rights Council in 2021 and led by Navi Pillay, concluded in September 2025 that Israel committed genocide in Gaza. He described the method of transferring data between the media and the commission as "information laundering" and questioned how many other claims in the report underwent the same process. He also added that Pillay described the commission as an entity that essentially functioned as a court, while Sidoti emphasized that they were neither a court nor prosecutors. https://t.co/DdBz4F6WRE #OSN #Izrael #genocida (translated)
