This source describes the Greek wiretapping case of 2004–05, a significant political scandal where over 100 mobile phones belonging to members of the Greek government and other high-ranking officials were illegally tapped. The taps occurred on the Vodafone Greece network using compromised Ericsson switches and sophisticated unauthorized software. Suspicion for the operation has largely fallen on United States intelligence agencies, with later investigations pointing to a specific NSA operative. The death of Kostas Tsalikidis, a Vodafone Network Planning Manager, was linked to the scandal and initially ruled a suicide but later pronounced a murder. The case faced investigative challenges, and Vodafone Greece was heavily fined for the illegal taps and impeding the investigation.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is scheduled to testify before the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, discussing the future of AI and its potential global impact. He will be joined by other prominent AI and tech executives at the hearing chaired by Senator Ted Cruz. Altman plans to highlight the significant advancements expected in AI in the coming years, including AI agents for real-world tasks and breakthroughs in scientific research. He also emphasizes the importance of the Stargate Project, a massive investment in AI infrastructure aimed at securing the U.S. as an AI leader. While acknowledging potential risks, Altman believes the benefits of AGI will ultimately outweigh the downsides, ushering in a new era of improved lives, but stresses that American leadership in AI is crucial for an outcome based on democratic values.
