President Donald Trump on Truth Social: "As a #President who is being given credit for having the Best Opening Month of any President in #history, quite naturally, here come the Fake books and stories with the so-called 'anonymous,' or 'off the record,' quotes. At some point I am going to sue some of these dishonest authors and book publishers, or even media in general, to find out whether or not these "anonymous sources" even exist, which they largely do not."
**Write about me what I like or don't write about me! <- that's free speech Trump style... ** 😐

Some were probably mistakes given that they’re clueless ideologues but clearly others are willful lies. It’s a propaganda operation as much as a far-right culture war campaign.

Editor-in-Chief of The Verge: "it’s been fairly disconcerting these first few weeks of the second Trump administration to realize there’s a nonzero chance the government will punish our work. All that talk about the media being the enemy of the people is turning into concrete legal action against publishers, broadcasters, and platforms that don’t do what the Trump White House wants. "

Developers targeted with Malware disguised as DeepSeek Package.
Threat actors are taking advantage of the rise in popularity of DeepSeek to promote two malicious infostealer packages on the Python Package Index, where they impersonated developer tools for the AI platform.

The malicious packages, deepseeek 0.0.8 and deepseekai 0.0.8 were uploaded to PyPI on January 29, 2025, with only twenty minutes between them.
Positive Technologies quickly discovered and reported them to PyPI, which quarantined and blocked downloads of the packages, followed by their complete deletion from the platform.
Despite the quick detection and response, 222 developers downloaded the two packages, most from the United States (117), followed by China (36), Russia, Germany, Hong Kong and Canada. Those developers who utilized these packages should immediately rotate their API keys, authentication tokens and passwords, as they may now be compromised.](https://friendica.hellquist.eu/photo/preview/640/3938922 "[ImageSource: Positive Technologies]

Malicious payload contained in both packages.
The stolen information was exfiltrated to a command and control (C2) server at eoyyiyqubj7mquj.m.pipedream[.]net using Pipedream, a legitimate automation platform. Threat actors could use this stolen information to access cloud services, databases and other protected resources utilized by the developer.
"Functions used in these packages are designed to collect user and computer data and steal environment variables", reads the Positive Technologies report. "The payload is executed when the user runs the commands deepseeek or deepseekai (depending on the package) in the command-line interface."
