AI is now changing how we connect, date, and fall in love. Our new Norton Insights Report: Artificial Intimacy reveals that 77% of current online daters in the US would consider dating an AI, and a majority believe it’s possible to develop real romantic feelings for one. This is happening against a backdrop where more than four in five people feel lonely, especially younger generations, and are increasingly turning to technology to fill emotional gaps. But where emotions go, scammers follow. Social engineering threats, those that manipulate us and prey on our most human emotions, now account for over 90% of all digital attacks on people. AI can make relationships feel more “real,” but it also makes manipulation more scalable and convincing. At Gen, we’re focused on protecting people at the exact moments they’re most vulnerable, when they’re looking for connection, advice, and support online. With AI-powered Scam Detection, identity monitoring, and device-level protection, we’re working to ensure that technology can enhance human connection without putting our safety at risk.

Thanks TechRadar Pro for spotlighting Benjamin Barrier's insights on navigating the AI-powered web. His core message is clear and powerful: organizations must move beyond identity-based detection and lean into intent-based cybersecurity. In a world where traffic is made up of human and bot identities, knowing WHY traffic interacts with your platform is paramount. He outlined that: 🤯 DataDome saw nearly one billion requests from OpenAI-identified crawlers per month last quarter 💡 To succeed, teams must: ⏩ Reaudit and reframe how they think about non-browser traffic. ⏩ Replace static rules with dynamic, context-aware defenses. ⏩ Define consistent access policies for AI agents—which roles are welcome, under what conditions. https://lnkd.in/gfWmV-k6

The US won’t allow “phone home” digital IDs. In one of our recent live podcasts, we sat down with Andrew Hughes (FaceTec) and Ryan Williams (AAMVA) to unpack the new ISO standards for mobile driver’s licenses (mDLs).   One topic dominated the discussion: server retrieval.   The ISO 18013 standard allows two ways to share mDL data: > Device retrieval: data is shared directly from the user’s phone. > Server retrieval: the verifier pulls data from the issuer’s server after the user presents a token. The second option has sparked privacy concerns.    With server retrieval, issuing authorities could theoretically log every credential use: IP address, time, and attributes shared.    Critics warned this creates the very “phone home” tracking that digital ID systems must avoid.   Andrew explained why it was added in the first place: when the standards were written years ago, there was no clear way to use an mDL online. Server retrieval was introduced so that if jurisdictions wanted an online model, there would be a standardized approach, not a “wild west” of proprietary, insecure, or privacy-invasive solutions. He added that in Edition 2 of ISO 18013 (expected 2026), server retrieval will be removed from the core standard and spun out into a separate technical specification. This ensures it won’t be the default anywhere, while still leaving a standardized path for jurisdictions that want it.   AAMVA has also drawn a hard line: server retrieval won’t be allowed in North America. All exchanges must happen device-to-device.
