Schneier on Security RSS<p>Privacy for Agentic AI</p><p>Sooner or later, it’s going to happen. AI systems will start acting as agents, doing things on our behalf with some degree of autonomy.

Somehow can't use it to login into Liqid Chat, doesn't give me a pod URL. Tried signing up at inrupt.net instead. "Registration closed" once you sent the form... Got a pod at solidweb.org instead. "Unauthorized" when trying to log in with it. solidcommunity.net shows errors on its register page...</p><p>Finally managed to log into the PodPro app with Inrupt's PodSpaces.</p><p>I guess some apps aren't super well maintained?</p>
