BOP II Topic of the Week: I came across this article about a 90's cyber-thriller and started to wonder about how many older movies tried to imagine "the future." Some were hilariously off, and some were weirdly on-point. Do any of you have throwback movies that you feel actually predicted the world we are living in now? It could be tech, culture, social dynamics - anything that makes you think "Wow, they really got it."
The '90s San Francisco cyber thriller that predicted online pizza orders
Out of This World was a late 80's, early 90's sitcom that I think predicted Alexa speakers.

The Top 26 Security Predictions for 2026 (Part 2)
Genisys is Skynet. AI is going to take over everything. All of our computer systems, webpages, etc. have been "infected" by AI. I know Kim Komando, who I trust, says it can do some amazing things. But I don't like it. I want to be able to do what I've always done online. Do things I want without being bombarded with ads and trying to be coorced into doing something I had never thought of doing before.

BOP II Topic of the Week: I read this comic and didn't make me laugh as much as it made me think, especially the twist at the end. I am sharing it because it made me wonder about the stories we tell around AI. What do you think?
Reader Beware: The following comic may be frightening to you
I found the comic horrifying. I actually got into an argument with my best friend over AI. I told him that Google AI results are a culmination of the internet and what he is trying to argue with is misinformation. I wish people would just fact-check for themselves and not assume AI is always right.

BOP II Topic of the Week: With only a few weeks left in the year, here are some simple tips to protect your money, identity, and sanity. What cybersecurity practices stood out to you this year? Share your best tips with the community!
The best cybersecurity advice I got in 2025: Simple tips to protect your money, identity, and sanity
Best tip for elderly. Have a safe word that they would have to hear before they sent you anything (like money) or did anything for them. So if someone calls and says they are you, and want your loved one to do something for you, ask for the safe word. If they don't know it, you know it's not them. Or better yet, don't ask for the safe word. You should agree that you would voluntarily offer it. If the person doesn't give it to you without you having to ask for it, you know it's a scam and someone is trying to rip your elderly relative (or friend, etc.) off.

BOP II Topic of the week: From airport Wi-Fi hacks to a beer brand database breach, here are 5 cybersecurity disasters you may have missed this week. What other cybersecurity news have you seen lately?
Have seen a lot of things. Kim Komando's website is loaded with this kind of stuff. Not sure what can be done about it. Most people, myself included, don't want to worry all the time that something's going to happen.

BOP II Topic of the Week: Have you seen the Irish ad about internet safety? In the ad, a child walks through a shopping mall with her parents. Strangers approach her one after another, reciting personal details they have learned from her parents' social media posts. They mention her birthday, favorite foods, and even private family moments. It is cut like a dystopian horror short film to make us feel how unsettling it is when a child's life is exposed online without their consent. Brilliant or terrifying? Maybe both?
Social media in frenzy over ‘terrifying’ Irish ad about internet safety
I agree with the essence of both comments. Way too much information and photos are posted in social media. I have a friend who refused to allow any pictures of her two children be posted by anyone, especially some siblings who were social media crazy. I thought it was a little extreme at the time (maybe 10 years ago), but in retrospect, she was wise. Our privacy is under attack every single day, by crooks, companies, and now even our government. The ad in question is a great example of how things should NOT be.
Don't follow any. Too complicated, most of them. I just be careful with what I'm doing online.
