Ai bots threaten the digital canoeing world

@scoutergriz , you may also be the target of "Spearphishing" attacks. Unlike standard "phishing", which is bait messages spread across a wide swath of people, hoping for a bite, this variant has the attacker compiling as much data as they can about you and your contacts (friend lists on social media, etc.) and creating messages that are tailored to hit your specific expectations and triggers.

You don't need to answer me, but how much of your personal contact info is tied to things like forum/social media memberships, etc?
