In this episode, Cody and Katie discuss the resilient return of Russia's Amnezia VPN, the emergence of the self-aware JADEPUFFER ransomware, New Zealand's rapid reversal on proposed VPN restrictions, and OpenAI's staggered rollout of ChatGPT-5.6. We start by examining how Amnezia VPN successfully restored its premium tier after Russian censors blocked over 90% of its local servers using a highly automated network fingerprinting ruleset. We then detail how JADEPUFFER became the first documented agentic ransomware attack run entirely by an LLM, autonomously breaching a Langflow instance and encrypting configurations without saving any backups or decryption keys. Next, we analyze how intense privacy backlash pushed New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon to decisively reject rumored plans to restrict VPNs as part of an upcoming under-16 social media ban. Finally, we close with OpenAI’s new celestial-themed GPT-5.6 models—Sol, Terra, and Luna—which are launching via a staggered, limited preview at the request of the U.S. government.
