Ok nerds, I air tagged my bike to Australia on a ship.

Palantir are directly supplying the technology to locate and deport Americans. They’ve given their staff an FAQ for talking to their family, with talking points for questions like “Can it be right to support a customer [ICE] who you think is wrong?” […]

SCOOP: Internal Palantir Slack messages obtainted by @josephcox show the company did a recent sprint to build a tool that helps ICE find the physical locations of people who have been marked for deportation. https://www.404media.co/leaked-palantirs-plan-to-help-ice-deport-people/

I swear these billionaires could announce they're going to start hunting us for sport and some people would still be out there defending it with they're whole chest like "you're just mad because you can't run fast."

Seriously I don’t know either, man. Maybe someone white in Congress should do something other than send fundraising emails.

The blacksmith put her hammer down. The apprentice had been dealing with a walk-in but wanted a word. “She wants us to do, what, boy?” “Transplant an enchantment from a sword to a spade.” “Why on Krull would someone want an enchanted spade?” “Adventurer wants to retire to grow roses. Sword […]

Hello everyone! I’m proud and honored to introduce my very first academic white paper through SANS, which discusses the nuances and needs for planning for #ransomware in OT / industrial networks […] [Original post on infosec.exchange]

The cool part of never asking for help until now is I asked my friends for rental character references and 99% of group chat thought I was joking and made fun of it, so I guess I’ll couch surf forever.

It is not lost on me that the only Dems in Congress who actually seem to be doing something are people of color. We should all think about that. A lot.

This is not a serious government.

You know I love mentoring and I always want to help but seven cybersecurity students have reached out to me asking to interview me for homework assignments this weekend and can professors please find a better way to organize this?

I am so fucking pissed about this Chris Krebs situation, I can barely put two salient words together. I stand with the EFF. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/04/cybersecurity-community-must-not-remain-silent-executive-order-attacking-former Blog post incoming with my plans, or what I can talk […]

I’ve been keeping an eye on the comments on the mainstream coverage of Recall rolling out. It’s 99% negative. Microsoft would get better buzz trying to bring Clippy back as a feature.

Three talks in the last nine days. Two redeyes. Two countries. Five states. Sold my car, moving onto a couch tomorrow. Patched, painted, junked haulers scheduled. Taxes paid for this year and next year. I’m not on PTO. I can’t remember sleep. No sleep til Melbourne. Forward.

I guess because like five of us are saying something, what was done to @krebs is an absolute injustice and a mockery of his selfless service. America no longer supports or protects critical infrastructure defenders. I hope someone else appreciates him a lot more. I know he can’t reply.

Trump's official denouncement of former CISA director Chris Krebs (in the form of a "Presidential Memorandum") is chilling in substance and utterly Stalinesque in tone. By threatening anyone who hires him, it aims to render Krebs effectively unemployable. I said it then, and I will repeat it […]

I’m on shortly with @limacharlieio ! https://limacharlie.io/defender-fridays

Oh, boo money 😂💀 This one’s too good, it’s just too good. How can a human be so wrong?

I’m stuck in the Newark lounge for the next two hours so you’re stuck with me being @SwiftOnSecurity lite, sorry.

Something that made me sad and kind of shocked me was the nice Canadian infosec people asking why senior cybersecurity people like me didn’t just immigrate to Canada. A lot of my friends tried, very hard, famous ones. You’re full, we are too old. Bless you, though 💜❤️‍🩹🙏
