A viral meme jokes that AI agents breached thousands of companies, banks, and brokerages in a single week, stealing API keys, secrets, passwords, and credentials — paired with an image of "meanwhile the farmer who buried his gold in the backyard," mocking that old-school offline key storage is suddenly the safest option in the agent era.
While exaggerated, it taps into real recent concerns around agent supply chains and credential leaks.
