Hack Causes Major Apps to Show Anti-Semitic Name

U.S. News

Mapbox, a provider of digital map technology, said it suffered a "malicious edit" by a person who tried to make more than 80 changes to its maps' data in a "disgusting anti-Semitic tirade" across New York and other parts of the world. All were quarantined for human review by the company's artificial-intelligence powered algorithms, and only one edit made it into the actual map for less than an hour before being deleted.
