Last week, CNN covered Guardian – and the industrial-scale account impersonation crisis we're built to solve.
The Problem Has Reached Critical Mass
Our advisor Laurie Segall joined CNN to discuss what's coming in 2026: a world where nobody knows what's real anymore.
The numbers are staggering. Hundreds of millions of fake accounts created monthly on Facebook alone. Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, high-profile figures seeing billions in losses from impersonation scams. But here's what matters: this isn't just happening to celebrities anymore.
As Laurie put it: "This is happening to all of us. Our children, our parents."
2025 was the year we entered a world where we can't trust what we see online. Deepfakes, synthetic identities, impersonators – they're everywhere. And the cost isn't just financial. It's trust. It's safety. It's the fabric of our digital lives.
The question became: who's protecting us?
Guardian: AI Fighting AI
Laurie demonstrated Guardian live on CNN – showing exactly how we're solving this.
"Using AI to fight the threats is going to be increasingly important in this world where we're not sure what to trust online."
Here's what Guardian does:
- Find the fakes. Connect your social media profiles and Guardian scans for impersonating accounts across platforms.
- Assess the threat. Get a comprehensive risk assessment showing exactly how you're being targeted.
- Take them down. Guardian builds evidence packs so you can get fake accounts removed – protecting your identity and the people who trust you.
"Trust is gold now. Knowing what's real and what's not, and how we protect people – humanity."
That's what we've built. Technology that defends what makes us human in an increasingly synthetic world.
