Get ready for today's dose of cybersecurity chaos with Hacked dAily, the FIRST AI-Driven Cybersecurity Podcast, courtesy of Cytadel Cyber. We've got more drama than a spy thriller! 

In our leading saga, LinkedIn is speed-running the privacy race, generously giving its users until Monday—because who needs more time—to opt out of their profiles becoming AI's latest meal. It's like trying to dodge a unicorn stampede with just a brisk jog.

Next, Docker Compose is offering a thrilling beach day vibe, whether you want it or not, without the tan—or security. This vulnerability is silently crashing your server’s party, but experts recommend patching it faster than you can say SPF 50. 

Meanwhile, cyber villains are running rampant in AI-powered apps like ChatGPT and WhatsApp. These sneaky intruders are slipping a spyware surprise into our digital chats, so maybe investigate whose "read receipts" have been upgraded to "stealth mode."

In a display of bad timing, Akira Ransomware has swept in to liberate 23GB of Apache OpenOffice data. An open-source romance gone rogue? Who knew spreadsheets told such riveting tales!

Welcome to Hacked dAily, the first AI-Driven Cybersecurity Podcast by Cytadel Cyber, where we bring you the juiciest tales from the cyber battlefield with a side of wit and warranted paranoia. 

Today, we're kicking off with Australia's cautionary tale about "BadCandy" malware infiltrating unpatched Cisco devices. It seems these devices threw a party without inviting security updates, and now malware is loving the VIP treatment. Time to pull the plug on this uninvited guest!

Next, in the latest edition of tech bloopers, the Eclipse Foundation fumbled by leaking Open VSX Tokens, swiftly reeling them back in like lost socks. Tokens, just like ice cream, aren't better when shared involuntarily.

In "Crime Soap Opera Spectacular," Baron Cain Martin, the alleged mastermind of the notoriously blundering gang 764, has been arrested in Arizona, facing a menagerie of 29 charges. Cue the epic battle between law and chaos where fantasy roles get an unexpected twist.

For a chuckle-worthy twist, cybercriminals have taken a page out of the Mad Men playbook, running Microsoft Teams ads—only this time, it's to capture victims. Who knew ransomware gangs had such a flair for destructive marketing?

Finally, Google's Search AI is on the verge of becoming your all-knowing digital companion. Yet, it might still struggle to help you locate your car keys. Turns out, the future is here, and it's powered by gigabytes and a healthy dose of "Big Google" oversight.

While experts are racing against time, let's place bets on the next headline: "Nation held hostage over Wi-Fi demands."

Not wanting to miss the comeback trend, CVE-2024-1086, a Jurassic era Linux Kernel flaw, is out of retirement, causing chaos in ransomware style. Let's hope your IT crew isn't too attached to retro vulnerabilities. 

Over in Oxford County, the race is on to see how many employees' personal data ends up on the dark web’s own version of bargain bin—but hiring an antivirus from Hogwarts might do the trick.

Meanwhile, rogue employees at DigitalMint decided to star in their own heist movie, conducting cyber-extortions while negotiating ransom payments. Who knew the coffee break crew had a penchant for piracy?

And lastly, OpenAI’s ChatGPT might soon be pitching ads mid-chat. Nothing like an AI recommending spaghetti sauce during your existential crisis. Because clearly, even robots can't resist capitalism's siren call.

Next, we visit MIT Sloan, where their AI ransomware study has been quietly ghosted like an embarrassing high school crush. A researcher called out its accuracy, proving even Ivy League institutions can't avoid the merciless clutches of reality.

Meanwhile, meet BankBot-YNRK and DeliveryRAT, the Bonnie and Clyde of Android Trojans, more interested in your bank details than your selfies. Their spree proves that when it comes to digital thievery, there's no such thing as too much information.

The Nova ransomware group keeps the intrigue flowing, threatening data leaks from Sweden's University of Gävle and Spain's Castilla, sparking fears the industry's darkest secrets might soon become an open book.

Finally, in a case of AI gone wild, cyber bandits are using chatbots to con their way into users’ trust—and data. Let's just say, they're not offering support; they're offering malware gift-wrapped with a friendly AI smile. 

Stay tuned, stay protected, and always keep a watchful eye on your tech!
