Tesla unveils its 'Cybercab' robotaxi
Gpscruisethat man sure knows how to "demo"
Tesla has introduced a robotaxi called Cybercab during its "We, Robot" event at Warner Bros. Discovery's studio in California, six months after Elon Musk revealed that the company was going to launch one. Musk made his way to the stage on a Cybercab, which has no steering wheels or pedals, announcing that "there's 20 more" where it came from. He talked about how our current modes of transportation "suck" and how how cars are on standby all the time. A car that's autonomous could be used more, he said. "With autonomy, you get your time back... Autonomous cars are going to become 10 times safer."
Musk said the costs of autonomous transport will be so low that they will be comparable to mass transit. In time, he said the operating cost of the robotaxi to be 20 cents a mile, 30 to 40 cents with taxes. He confirmed to the audience that people will be able to buy one and that Tesla expects to sell the Cybercab for below $30,000.
The Tesla CEO envisions a future wherein people own several robotaxis, managing a fleet like a "shepherd," that can earn them money through a ridesharing network. When asked when the model will be available, he replied that Tesla will start by making fully autonomous unsupervised Full Sell Driving available on the Model 3 and Model Y in Texas and California. Musk said that the Cybercab is expected to go into production before 2027, but he himself admitted that he tends to be "highly optimistic with timeframes." And he does — he said way back in 2019 that Tesla will "have over a million robotaxis on the road" within a year.
Talking about the Cybercab's technology, he said that it uses AI and vision. Tesla has long dropped radars and sensors that other robotaxis like Waymo's use extensively. Because of that, he said that it doesn't need expensive equipment, and Tesla can keep manufacturing costs low. Notably, the Cybercab doesn't come with a charging port and uses inductive charging instead.
Reuters reported back in April that Musk ordered the company to "go all in" on robotaxis built on its small-vehicle platform. Musk previously said that the model was going to be unveiled on August 8, but he later announced that the company's robotaxi event will be pushed back to October after he requested "an important design change to the front." The delay would also give the company extra time to "show off a few other things," he explained. The Cybercab that Tesla presented to the audience today is all silver and seems to have taken design cues from the Cybertruck. It doesn't have a back windshield and has doors that open upwards.
In addition to reporting the robotaxi's existence, Reuters revealed in April that Tesla scrapped its plans for an affordable, $25,000 electric vehicle. While Musk called it a lie, another report by Electrek backed Reuters' story and cited "sources familiar with the matter" who reportedly told the publication that the low-cost EV's development has been postponed.
After talking about the Cybercab, Musk briefly introduced the Robovan — an autonomous van that can carry up to 20 people and transport goods. It'll get the costs of travel down even further, he said, since it could transport big groups like sports teams. Finally, Musk brought out a parade of Tesla's humanoid Optimus robots. Musk said Tesla has made dramatic progress on its development over the past year and that in the future, it could teach your kids, mow your lawn and even be your friend. He believes Tesla could sell its Optimus robots, which mingled with the audience and served drinks during the event, for between $20,000 to $30,000.

Google, it’s time to kill CAPTCHAS
GpscruiseLisa Simpson had a wonderful Captcha episode, "click on the English Poets", on and on for five minutes......
Are you a robot? Google really, really wants to know.
The answer to this question is demanded of web users 200 million times a day via CAPTCHAs — “Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart,” a system owned and operated by Google.
Google got into the CAPTCHA game in 2009 when it acquired a small company founded by Carnegie Mellon University eggheads called reCAPTCHA. And Google’s intentions for the technology were brilliant.
Google wanted CAPTCHAs to test whether users were human or bots to protect websites from spam and fraud — but with a twist. Google intended to substitute the original, deliberately distorted letters (readable by people but not bots) with accidentally distorted ones — ambiguous scans from the Google Books Library Project. For example, if most users identified a blurry letter as an “E,” that would be confirmed or corrected in the digital book scan.
The vision for this project was to get the world’s web users to work for free, identifying letters while also thwarting malicious bots. Google later used reCAPTCHA for human identification of ambiguous Street View and Maps photographed objects, including home addresses, street signs, and business names and addresses. More recently, Google has used reCAPTCHA to support its broader AI initiatives across maps, computer vision, speech recognition, and security.
There are many kinds of CAPTCHAs — text-based, image-based, audio, math problems, word problems, time-based, honeypot, picture identification, and invisible. The most common ones are the click-the-checkbox CAPTCHAs and the click-the-pictures-that-contain-a-bus CAPTCHAs. Both are Google’s reCAPTCHA v2.
Google’s most recent version, reCAPTCHA v3, uses behavioral analysis to detect bots without explicit challenges. The user is never forced to stop and solve a puzzle. This approach makes sense and doesn’t divert users in their tracks to solve Google’s recognition problems.
So why do we still see the old kind of reCAPTCHA v2 challenges everywhere, every day?
One reason is that reCAPTCHA v2 is simpler for website owners to implement and manage. They can verify users without having to interpret complex risk scores. It’s also more tangible to website owners because they can see it (whereas v3 operates invisibly in the background). It also has more customizable options and uses fewer cookies.
Even website owners who use v3 implement v2 as a fallback system, either for especially suspicious traffic or when the v3 engine can’t capture enough data.
While using reCAPTCHA v2 has clear benefits, new events this month radically changed the cost-benefit analysis.
AI defeats reCAPTCHA
Researchers from ETH Zurich published a research paper Sept. 13 demonstrating that it can solve Google’s reCAPTCHA v2 with 100% accuracy.
The study reveals that current AI technologies can effectively exploit advanced image-based captchas like reCAPTCHA v2. Any malicious actor anywhere in the world can easily implement an automated bot system that gets past reCAPTCHA v2 challenges.
Humans can “prove they’re human” with 71-85% accuracy. Machines can “prove they’re human” with 100% accuracy.
Obviously, reCAPTCHA v2 is obsolete.
reCAPTCHA is a security threat
The antivirus company McAfee announced on Sept 20 that it had discovered a new malware attack that uses fake CAPTCHA challenges.
Fraudulent CAPTCHA pages are shared on shady websites claiming to offer cracked versions of popular games like Black Myth: Wukong, Skylines II, and Hogwarts Legacy. The fake CAPTCHA test tricks users into performing keyboard actions that secretly paste and execute a PowerShell script that downloads and installs the Lumma Stealer malware.
The same fraudulent CAPTCHA challenges are also included in phishing emails disguised as GitHub communications about a fake “security vulnerability.”
One reason the phony CAPTCHA scam works is that CAPTCHAs are so ubiquitous. We’ve all been trained like lab rodents to engage with them, so it’s easy to convince the public to use them. The social engineering trick simply hijacks an existing widespread habit.
The ubiquity of CAPTCHAs itself is an exploitable security threat.
In the past few weeks, it’s become clear that reCAPTCHA v2 is both breakable by AI and a huge security risk. But the biggest problem with reCAPTCHA v2 has existed for years.
Unconscionable exploitation of users
I can’t stand reCAPTCHA v2 challenges. As a research-obsessed journalist, I open hundreds or thousands of web pages daily. I’ve bookmarked hundreds of pages of news searches, which I open every day to stay informed about my far-flung technical beats. I churn through web pages at high speed, hunting for information. Plus, I use a lot of browser extensions.
I’m also a digital nomad, traveling globally and constantly accessing random Wi-Fi networks in airports, cafes, restaurants, Airbnbs, and elsewhere. I often need to pretend (for some US services) to be in the United States, so of course, I use a VPN.
Each aspect of how I use the web and Google Search is deemed “suspicious,” so CAPTCHA challenges are constantly arresting my work momentum.
I’m an online speed freak. I’ve spent thousands of dollars on my laptop solely for performance. I don’t want anything slowing me down. So, for Google to stop me in my tracks and make me identify buses, stairs, and crosswalks a hundred times a day while I’m in the writing “zone” is vexing to an extreme.
Google literally steals my time every day.
And it’s not just me. reCAPTCHA v2 is deployed on nearly three million websites, including over one-third of the top 100,000 sites.
During the 13 years reCAPTCHA has been around, people have collectively spent 819 million hours solving its challenges, corresponding to at least $6.1 billion in wages never paid for that labor, according to a study by researchers from the University of California, Irvine.
The researchers note that Google might have profited as much as $888 billion from cookies created by reCAPTCHA sessions and could monetize CAPTCHA activity by tracking users, gathering behavioral data, and creating user profiles for advertising. (Google denied this charge, saying reCAPTCHA v2 user data is used only to improve the service.)
(The researchers also estimate that reCAPTCHA traffic consumed about 134 petabytes of bandwidth, which has so far burned roughly 7.5 million kWh of energy and produced 7.5 million pounds of CO2.)
Google: It’s time to pull the plug
Enough already with the CAPTCHAs that force users to stop and take a test! It’s a massive, unpaid exploitation of users for Google’s gain. The technology is easily defeated by AI. And the very existence of the CAPTCHA concept is now being exploited by malicious actors.
While reCAPTCHA v3 is probably much better, it’s now clear that reCAPTCHA v2 is beatable with AI, a security risk, and a giant pain in the ass for millions of people.
Google has killed more than 296 products since 2006, according to the Google Graveyard.
It’s time for Google to kill again.

ICYMI: PILF Won Access to South Carolina’s Voter Roll
GpscruiseJudge will rule on MANDAMUS in GA-election-lawsuite 10/3/2024 !!!!!!
(Alexandria, VA) – September 24, 2024: The Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) won access to the South Carolina voter roll in federal court. The Foundation’s lawsuit alleged that the South Carolina Election Commission’s refusal to provide a copy of the statewide voter roll violated the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA).
BACKGROUND
In February of 2024, the Foundation requested a copy of the statewide voter roll. The South Carolina Elections Commission refused to provide a copy of the voter roll to the Foundation because South Carolina law prohibits out-of-state residents or organizations from purchasing the voter roll.
LEGAL ARGUMENTS
The NVRA’s Public Disclosure Provision requires that states “maintain for at least 2 years and shall make available for public inspection…all records concerning the implementation of programs and activities, conducted for the purpose of ensuring the accuracy and currency of official lists of eligible voters.” Under this provision, the public has a right to inspect a state’s voter roll.
South Carolina violated the NVRA’s requirements to provide a statewide voter roll for public inspection. Further, South Carolina law restricting who can access the voter roll violated the NVRA’s Public Disclosure Provision and is preempted by the Supremacy Clause and the Elections Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
“It is now settled law that voter rolls are public records,” said PILF President, J. Christian Adams. “PILF has now fought this fight and won it in court in four states. This lawsuit will bring transparency to South Carolina’s 2024 elections.”
Previously, the Foundation has fought and won access to the voter roll in Maine, Maryland, and Illinois. Earlier this year, the First Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously sided with the Foundation that Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows had to hand over the state’s voter rolls without use restrictions. These cases have established precedent that under the NVRA voter rolls are public records.
Additionally, the Foundation has an active case against Hawaii for failing to maintain and provide a statewide voter roll for public inspection.
J. Christian Adams, Joseph Nixon, Maureen Riordan, and Noel Johnson were the Foundation’s attorneys in this case.
Access case documents for Public Interest Legal Foundation v. Howard M. Knapp here. A fact sheet on the case is available here.
Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) is the nation’s only public interest law firm dedicated wholly to election integrity. The Foundation exists to assist states and others to aid the cause of election integrity and fight against lawlessness in American elections. Drawing on numerous experts in the field, PILF seeks to protect the right to vote and preserve the Constitutional framework of American elections. PILF has brought lawsuits and won victories in Texas, Mississippi, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and across the United States.

Google calls for halting use of WHOIS for TLS domain verifications
Gpscruisei depend on whois.......
Enlarge (credit: Getty Images)
Certificate authorities and browser makers are planning to end the use of WHOIS data verifying domain ownership following a report that demonstrated how threat actors could abuse the process to obtain fraudulently issued TLS certificates.
TLS certificates are the cryptographic credentials that underpin HTTPS connections, a critical component of online communications verifying that a server belongs to a trusted entity and encrypts all traffic passing between it and an end user. These credentials are issued by any one of hundreds of CAs (certificate authorities) to domain owners. The rules for how certificates are issued and the process for verifying the rightful owner of a domain are left to the CA/Browser Forum. One "base requirement rule" allows CAs to send an email to an address listed in the WHOIS record for the domain being applied for. When the receiver clicks an enclosed link, the certificate is automatically approved.
Non-trivial dependencies
Researchers from security firm watchTowr recently demonstrated how threat actors could abuse the rule to obtain fraudulently issued certificates for domains they didn’t own. The security failure resulted from a lack of uniform rules for determining the validity of sites claiming to provide official WHOIS records.
