🤖 ChatGPT Vibe Coded This AI Slop Security Nightmare YouTube video by Bits On Tape

We Used #ChatGPT to Create a Vibe Coded Nightmare. It only took a few minutes to pollute the internet with the world's worst website. It's a warning, not inspiration.

A BIG THANK YOU to our users + subscribers + supporters + customers! We're building and growing each month and really creating something great 💪

Vibe Crap — the worst web page on purpose, courtesy ChatGPT VibeCrap.com is a purposefully crappy web page that was vibe coded by ChatGPT to be the worst example of a web page possible.

🤓 We wanted to show our @bitsontape.com readers just how thankful we are for good web development practices this #Thanksgiving so we highlighted the VibeCrap.com project cooked up by the team this fall.

vibe coding

We asked #ChatGPT to vibe code the worst site possible. Purposefully coding a pile of #AIslop comes with great responsibility… and we’re confident that we’ve contained this flaming pile of garbage well enough to share it with our loyal fans. 🤓 bitsontape.com/p/chatgpt-vi...

Google is still collecting data from your old Nest thermostat. A security researcher discovered that Google is still collecting data from discontinued Nest thermostat models in millions of American homes.

Our @profdiggity.com on #Google Nest #privacy:
"Proximity signals alone can reveal when someone is home, when they leave and when they sleep... Over time, you get a very clear picture of household routine.”

Thanks to @mikaelthalen.bsky.social for digging into the insecurity & #enshittification of #Google Nest devices. This is why #RightToRepair and #FreeSoftware matters.

One extreme case? A #Disney employee unknowingly installed a keylogger hidden in an #AI app. Hackers stole:
🔑 Passwords
💰 Financial data
💬 Workplace #Slack messages
The breach exposed millions of internal messages —and the employee lost their job.

Meanwhile, #malware is also accelerating the problem. @haveibeenpwned flagged a breach of *244M passwords and 284M emails* harvested by infostealer malware and distributed on #Telegram. Most victims don’t know they've been compromised. Is that you?

Common Crawl is massive:
📂 250B web pages
💾 400TB of data
🌐 Info from 38.3M domains
The dataset is used to train AI from #OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Facebook, #Anthropic & more. Since AI can’t distinguish sensitive credentials from examples, leaked #passwords can spread fast.

🚨 A new report found that the Common Crawl dataset, used to train AI like #ChatGPT, contains thousands of leaked credentials. Researchers uncovered nearly 12,000 live API keys, passwords, and sensitive secrets... and some granting access to critical services.
