Adapt #xkcd2501 to your area of abstruse specialization.

@alice I agree with you. As I'm not from the USA, there is a distance to the subject.

Reporter @locuta has daily reports with up to 50 'actions' happening in the USA. I've read the book and most of the first year content, but I've decided to focus on things I can change, and only check it once in a while.

I hope it will get better for you and the rest of the USA soon, and that alliances like NATO may hold many more years.

@alice oof thanks for the background knowledge! I feel yucky about my small CI kit. Time to sort that out.

@alice Great to meet you. I've not been much abroad the past few years, and I've not yet been in the USA.

I've joined Toool in the Netherlands about a decade ago, and frequently teach at all kinds of security conferences. ~10 a year, or so, some years.

@alice Digital opsec is second nature to us, so it's easy to forget that the average person only knows to clear their cookies and use Ublock Origin.

And DuckDuckGo, of course.

Of course.

@alice An old military guy, and ex-coworker, once told me this. Never trust an Expert. You never want to be knows as an Ex Spert. That's lived rent free in my head ever since.
