When hiking in the Alps Ödön von Horváth found a skeleton with rucksack attached. He opened the rucksack to find an addressed postcard: 'Having a wonderful time.'

Horváth's friends asked him what he did next.

'I posted it.'

All jokes aside, I think cyber warfare would be tough as the baseline reliability of many critical IT systems isn't that great anyway.

I'd feel a lot more comfortable about this if "reasonable steps" was actually defined. Also if "social media" was defined.

How Australia passes super vague laws then leaves interpretation up to ministers or officials is actually pretty weird by global standards.

We are generally way too overconfident in understanding adversary intent.

Activity is straightforward, attribution is tricky and intent is often opaque and relies on organizational politics and bureacracy inside organizations.

Not sure why they called it “Threads” when Facebook+ was right there.

My first 4th of July since leaving the US. Feeling a bit sad to miss the holiday but then I remembered I live here now:
