If your friends don't think you're a freak weirdo Luddite, scratch that, if you HAVE any friends, your opsec is not good enough if They decide to Go After You.

Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be tech nerds

No honor among leopards, NYFO

*Entirely* too many South African billionaires making decisions in the American media space these days
