evidence: Earlier this week, Google sued three unnamed individuals in Vietnam, accusing them of making fake ads for its Bard AI chatbot. People who clicked the link downloaded malware that stole their social media login credentials instead of the chatbot. The lawsuit, filed in a California federal court, states that the company does not currently know the names and "capacities" of the defendants and is suing them under fictitious names. Google is seeking a court order to stop scammers from setting up fake profiles and wants to be able to disable fake pages registered in the U.S. If the case is successful, it could set a new precedent for U.S. tech companies to go after scammers around the world.
