Jim Love reports that a breach at P3 Global Intel, whose tip-submission systems are used by police, government agencies, and schools, allegedly exposed over 8 million submissions including highly sensitive personal data and raised concerns about anonymity due to features that could disclose tipster IP information; the company says it has not confirmed misuse. Google warns "Q Day," when quantum computers could break widely used public-key encryption, may arrive as early as 2029, intensifying urgency around "harvest now, decrypt later" and adoption of post-quantum cryptography standards. The episode also highlights AI-era supply-chain threats where community-generated documentation can be poisoned with indirect prompt injections that influence AI-generated code, and notes upcoming GitHub Copilot policy changes to use prompts and code context from certain users for training unless they opt out, making data governance critical.
