I wrote an article about what I wish juniors in cybersecurity would ask for and contribute when asking for a mentor and career guidance, in light of the terrible tech jobs market.

Public service announcement.

Header text: "HEY YOU! YES YOU! TAKE THIS SHIT OUT OF LINKS!"

This is followed by a couple example urls, with a red square highlighting the sections with source identifiers. The rest of the text is as follows:

Source identifiers are used to track your activity on a site. Where you came from, what device you use, and even who you talk to. Whether it's written clearly in the url or tied to a random string of characters, it's assigned to your activity.

When you send a link containing a source identifier to somebody and they click it, it signals to the website that you two are connected. And that data goes right back to the website operators, and thus their advertisers.

Whenever you select "share" or "copy link" on a social app or website, it creates a link like this. If you give even the smallest shit about online privacy, it's important to remove them. Everything after the "?" symbol can be removed without issue, especially sections starting with "si=" or "utm_source="

@georgetakei The Borg used to say that and look it how it turned out for them

We are probably going to need this sign today, unfortunately #NoKings

Cardboard sign held by a masked person features text: "Judging a demonstration by its most violent participants but NOT judging a police force by its most violent cops is the language of the oppressor." Two raised fists are drawn on it. Nearby people stand outdoors.

Meme that reads, "Destruction of property is not a valid form of protest”. Then there's a painting of Jesus entering the temple courts with him overturning the tables of the money changers.

@GottaLaff If you actually wanted to spy on someone, is it a good idea to announce it? Unless of course it's a pure intimidation tactic. Which is also kind of insipid given their relative size to the US - aren't they intimidated enough? #weaksauce

For the past year I’ve been working on a committee to produce a consensus report on Cyber Hard Problems for the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine. The report, commissioned by the White House, is finally going to be released on May 15th, and you can join this public webinar to hear about it: https://www.nationalacademies.org/event/45017_05-2025_cyber-hard-problems-report-release-webinar

There are too many people to thank, from the NASEM staff to the committee members, subject matter experts who presented to us, and the anonymous reviewers (you know who you are, and now so do I 😉).

where the fuck is Bill Gates? why isn’t he screaming about the #NIH and Kennedy’s evisceration of #HHS ?

where are Oprah, Jay-Z and Beyoncé, Lebron James, the Kardashians, all of them paper billionaires?

where is Mark Cuban? and how about the Democrats’ favorite billionaires, Michael Bloomberg and Howard Schulz?

where exactly are all the good billionaires fighting Trump’s destruction of the federal government and what semblance of democracy USA had?

YES 👇🏼💯

Some of y’all forget the reason we have food safety regulations is because companies used to do things like adding chalk to spoiled milk so it looked normal.

Regulations don’t exist because governments enjoy them. They exist because pure unadulterated capitalism would kill us.
