CBS pulled the 60 Minutes CECOT segment, but Canada aired it anyway.
The segment was streaming via Global TV and YouTube (since taken down). Having a VPN set to Canada helped. 🇨🇦
My take, there is no reason we shouldn’t see this. Most of it was known information, easily searchable.

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

Security maturity isn’t knowing more patterns… it’s knowing when to ignore them.
The flexible practitioner asks: “Given my actual threats, constraints, and context, what’s the simplest sufficient control?”
Sometimes that’s a novel approach your certs never mentioned.

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.
Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

3 ways you can make noise about the shutdown if you have a GOP Member of Congress.
1) Find where they publicly said Dems want healthcare for illegals [sic] and--in the most aggrieved voice possible--berate them for claiming their constituents who rely on ACA are not real Americans.
