I am a high school dropout. I have a G.E.D. My 1st job in #cybersecurity paid me $80,000/yr w/o a degree. My 2nd role in cyber paid me $120K/yr & only took 1 interview. My last cyber consulting gig paid me $8K per DAY plus expenses & 1st class ✈️ to Dubai. YOU can do this! 🫵

On Sunday, April 3, 2022, I was awarded ‘Rookie of the Year’ by @PagosaFire! This is an incredible honor, and I am as humbled as I am honored to receive such a prestigious award from such a benevolent and magnanimous group of humans.

Partnering with orgs to encourage girls and women into their fields is one thing that all tech and other male-dominated companies should do. (And then actually support women once they are hired). Kudos to CISA! @CISAJen

I'm working on something new. It's me. Hey friends, family, and followers. 👋 It's been a minute since I've been active here. In this thread, I'll do my best to explain my absence and give you an idea of what to expect from me in the future.

8 years ago this weekend, the Internet went dark to protest bills that would have forced Internet companies to blacklist and block websites based on copyright claims. See ways that copyright continues to take content offline at our Takedown Hall of Shame. eff.org/takedowns

Don't forget what #MLK endured in the hands of a politicized FBI, and how those abuses could happen again. eff.org/deeplinks/2017…

“But we need a backup planet in case this one is ruined!” There is virtually nothing we — or the Universe — could do to Earth that would make it less habitable than Mars. Global warming, nuclear winter, extinction-level asteroid... still easier to live in caves here than there.

I think fewer people would be excited about moving to Mars if they knew that they’d have to live in deep, shielded caves and that still might not be enough to save them.

I was chatting with a friend at a LEO who has a CS degree and wants to move into laterally to digital forensics. My advice today was very different than it would have been a decade ago. I sent him resources to learn mobile forensics, particularly Android.

Corporate third parties have built up a huge surveillance industry around us. A new report by the Norwegian Consumer Council shows how. eff.org/deeplinks/2020…
