   404 Media is back for the new year, and just *today* we have published multiple scoops with only four of us reporting, writing, editing.

   First: Facebook is censoring its own employees' criticism of hire of UFC head, according to internal messages we got https://www.404media.co/facebook-deletes-internal-employee-criticism-of-new-board-member-dana-white/

   Second: hackers have claimed a massive breach of location data company Gravy. This is a beating heart of worldwide phone monitoring, and provides data to the U.S. government. It's a "nightmare" scenario https://www.404media.co/hackers-claim-massive-breach-of-location-data-giant-threaten-to-leak-data/

   Third today: police automatic license plate readers are accidentally exposing live feeds to the open internet. So a privacy advocate built a tool that automatically scans the plates and puts them in a spreadsheet to highlight the risk these cameras pose https://www.404media.co/researcher-turns-insecure-license-plate-cameras-into-open-source-surveillance-tool/

   Fourth: People are using AI video generator Runway to post extremely violent Minionfied videos to social media. Unfortunately what people are actually using AI for! https://www.404media.co/minion-gore-videos-use-ai-to-post-murder-to-instagram-tiktok-and-youtube/
