Logged in using my Google Voice number, now I might be in someone else’s account?

As described in headline, I downloaded Telegram for the first time and added my Google voice number. I’ve been using this number for a year mainly for job applications.

The Telegram account linked to my VOIP number already has a name different from my own and username not created by me. There’s an existing address book filled with Russian contacts.

I check Devices, and there’s another active session different than my own.

What is happening?

Congress Should Start Planning to Limit Worker Surveillance, New Vanderbilt Report Says

In the report, Asad Ramzanali, VPA Director of AI and Technology Policy, offers a set of proposals for post-AI crash reforms. These include:

  1. First, Congress should curtail the financial engineering—circular equity investments, opaque debt, and distortive government subsidies—that may be the proximate cause of the crash, and the government should prosecute any related frauds and illegal activities.
  2. Congress should turn data centers that become stranded assets into a public cloud and sustain AI research and development (R&D) for public purposes.
  3. Congress should protect workers by expanding unemployment insurance, creating a digital Works Progress Administration (WPA), and limiting worker surveillance.
  4. Congress should reform AI markets by establishing a a Glass-Steagall for AI, utility-style regulations for digital utilities, a new regulatory agency, and a ban on surveillance-based business models.

My question for the cybersecurity experts is what would it take to limit worker surveillance? I understand the CISA sets guidelines on how to treat insider threats, and procurement of “surveillance” technology is a result of this a growing concern.
