For the April edition of Hooked!, @katharinegk.bsky.social explores the hype vs the realities of #Mythos & #cybersecurity, alongside further reading on vulnerability research. Is it all hype, is the world ending, or are we once again somewhere in between the two?

(3/6) Chinaโs generative AI boom isnโt just technological โ itโs regulatory
@vincentbrussee.bsky.social explores how Chinaโs AI rise is as much about governance and regulation as innovation.

(2/6) Time to ditch the AI arms race analogy
@collierjam.bsky.social & @maxwsmeets.bsky.social challenge the dominant โarms raceโ framing and rethink how we understand AI competition.

Cybersecurity professionals face relentless stress. Surveys show widespread exhaustion, lost sleep, and pressure to stay ahead of threats. Jelle van Haaster argues that this strain isnโt incidental; itโs built into the job itself.

Are we overestimating cyber catastrophe risk?
The protection gap is often put at ~$15.8T, yet 24 major cyber events since 1998 total ~$350bn in losses, far below natural disasters. Has the narrative constrained the insurance market more than the risk?

NIS2 strengthens cybersecurity obligations across sectors, but largely excludes research institutions. Generic guidance is no match for long-dwell espionage and intellectual property theft.

Universities allocated just 7% of their 2023 IT budgets to cybersecurity, compared to 11.6% across other sectors. Research institutions are being outspent on protection by almost every industry.

In his latest for Binding Hook, Vincent Tadday explores a growing paradox: while Europe invests heavily in research and innovation, its research ecosystem remains exposed to cyber threats due to fragmented policies and limited coordination.

I've just published my first piece built from ideas developed in my PhD, on the political economy of online harm taxonomies, with @bindinghook.bsky.social, a European publication focused on technology and security!
Who gets to define โonline harm," and who benefits from those definitions?
(5/5) Debates over online harm taxonomies ultimately reveal political struggles over authority, responsibility and how to govern digital platforms.
(4/5) The US government now treats trust and safety work as censorship, banning visa holders it considers to be โcensoring Americans,โ such as workers involved in content moderation and factchecking.
(3/5) In the US, tech platforms focus overwhelmingly on content harms while neglecting contact & conduct harms. #Meta, #YouTube and others frame harm in ways that protect corporate autonomy, emphasising user responsibility over their own role in amplifying damaging content.
(2/5) Online harm taxonomies attempt to classify and organise different types of harm, but these frameworks are not neutral and can shape how problems are understood and addressed.
(1/5) Efforts to define โonline harmโ in the US are deeply contested, reflecting broader disagreements over speech, regulation and the role of government in digital governance.

Does the US government consider defining online harm as harmful itself? In her latest Binding Hook piece, @theodoraskeadas.bsky.social raises this question as deaths linked to AI chatbots raise urgent safety questions.

In recent @euronews.com coverage on attacks affecting data centres, our Co-Director @jamesshires.bsky.social contributed expert analysis on the risks facing hyperscaler facilities, noting that a key response is to recognise them as critical infrastructure.

"These cases highlight a structural asymmetry. EU law increasingly harmonises obligations for manufacturers and authorities, while researchers remain exposed to fragmented national criminal regimes."
Europe is building stronger systems to report vulnerabilities, but it risks overlooking the people who discover the flaws first: independent security researchers, write @euben.bsky.social and Max van der Horst:
