This article was an emotional roller coaster. 🎢

Security researchers, Black Hat, DEFCON are all things that make me happy! But strangers being able to open my hotel room…while I’m inside is my recurring nightmare.

Great reporting!! But really regretting that I know this.

Ditto. This should be on coffee mug.

Laugh. These folks took sand to the beach, built a $500k sandcastle, and are devastated that the ocean oceaned.

I’m certain several engineers, gardeners, and 8 yrs shared personal experiences that this would happen.

These folks literally took sand to the beach, built a $500k sandcastle, and are devastated that the ocean oceaned?

Please please tell me a time-lapse video exists somewhere in the world.

Keep. Digging.

These compounding problems require a new perspective on #cyberattacks that looks beyond lost dollars, breached files, or doomsday debates over generative AI tools like #ChatGPT or artificial general intelligence. #Cybersecurity #CivilRights #DigitalEquity #InclusiveSecurity #CyberCivilRights

Also TIL, GIFS don’t work here. 😕

Thank you for covering this. Also this bar shouldn’t be that hard to meet: “We urge you to halt all Department of Justice grants for predictive policing systems until the DOJ can ensure that grant recipients will not use such systems in ways that have a discriminatory impact,” the letter reads.

Thanks to #ShareTheMicInCyber @bridgetchan.bsky.social and @samsabin.bsky.social for allowing me a platform to share my thoughts and engage the cyber community!

Non-profits play a crucial role in cybersecurity and require more sustained support from governments.

Moving beyond defense-only, we need a diverse set of tools including rapid info sharing, clear attribution, & setting international norms. Also explore proactive measures like sanctions and declassification of cyber intelligence.

The rise of AI in cyber operations is exacerbating inequalities of marginalized groups and they are not fully represented in cyber policymaking. Inclusivity is key to creating balanced and effective cybersecurity policy. 🧵
