GMO Investigates Suspected Leak of Customer Data After Cloud Breach

When a suspected breach at GMO Internet spills customer data into the open, the response matters as much as the attack. Japan's tech giant is now verifying whether the leaked information is real, a process that demands both speed and transparency. Cloud services hold immense trust, and incidents like this test that trust to its limits. The fragility here echoes what we explored in "How AI is revealing the fragile foundations of the modern internet." Users deserve clarity, not silence, as the facts emerge.

The hidden cost of AI: data centers set to surpass national energy demand.

The AI boom is rewriting America's energy map in real time. Projections now show U.S. data centers guzzling more natural gas by 2035 than Germany and Japan combined. That is a staggering leap, and it should make us pause. This isn't about scaring anyone away from innovation; it's about facing the infrastructure reality head-on. If we're going to empower this digital transformation, we need to plan for the power it demands.
