Please keep an eye out for misinformation and disinformation on Twitter — particularly during times of crisis. Only share news from trusted sources, and don’t tweet any news that isn’t confirmed by reputable news organizations.

Great summary on how misinformation spreads rapidly via social media. Our human instinct to correct falsehoods is actually what drives more interaction, which in turn gives it more (perceived) credibility. TLDR: Don't engage!

Just got off phone with a client. Log4j is in their network. Vendor claims patch will be available next release... which is multiple months from now. Here's what you do if you're in this situation. 1. Keep calm. There's no need to panic. 2. Carefully read this thread. 1/?

Many non-Indigenous people will be acknowledging Orange Shirt Day for the first time this year. So I wanted to share a few important points / thoughts:

For the record – Zero Trust is a real thing and overarching philosophy. But of course vendors will turn anything into meaningless soup. It's architecture not product-based and you can't just implement it.

Realized that I haven't used the Twitters in a while, so what better day to sign in and say one important thing: Please vote! #elxn44vote And if you're still not sure about who to vote for, you can always follow these wise words:
Think of the most vulnerable person you know and vote in their best interests

Great thread on app privacy. He's bang on about the silly conspiracy theory that your phone is "listening" to you...it doesn't have to, because you already give it so much other valuable information anyway!

I'm back from a week at my mom's house and now I'm getting ads for her toothpaste brand, the brand I've been putting in my mouth for a week. We never talked about this brand or googled it or anything like that. As a privacy tech worker, let me explain why this is happening. 🧵

1/ Unless the USG dramatically changes its approach to reviewing software, just doing more "vetting" of vendors will be 100% useless in catching issues like SolarWinds. Currently, it's all designed to raise the "floor" and avoid table-stakes stuff.

Ok, this thread is amazing for a couple reasons: 1) to learn more about how the COVID vaccine works and (2) to see the power of explaining a complicated subject in simple terms. This skill is missing in many subject matter experts (in all fields) and definitely needs more focus.

The mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) are kind of brilliant at a science level. I’ve had a few people in my real non-Twitter life ask me to explain how it works so I’m going to try my best here in this thread while I’m waiting for a patient to show.

Wow, this is huge...not just for baseball, not just for professional sports, but for society in general. It shouldn't have taken this long, especially with her incredible qualifications...but kudos to the @Marlins for helping to set the right example. 👏🏾👏🏾

I'm not sure what's scarier: the massive privacy violation or the number of people that have replied to the tweet with something along the lines of "who cares". One thing is clear: we need to educate citizens better on why this is a very big deal and a very slippery slope.
