There is no such thing as a Digital Third Party. There is just The Matrix. For better or worse, we are all in this together.

@ryanaraine Simple principle: Do not allow personal activities on systems used for admin or access to sensitive data.

@WeldPond The head of a company that claimed digital forensic expertise and engaged in multiple controversial ‘investigations’ of election systems made a comically naive mistake demonstrating a fatal lack of forensic knowledge. Why would anyone use them for something like that?

@anton_chuvakin One of my biggest professional regrets was not saving the classy Oxford cloth shirt with an NT 5.0 logo on it. MSFT passed them out about a week before they decided to change the name. That would have been a collector’s item.

@anton_chuvakin @elonmusk @Twitter Every politico-cultural tribe has its own concept of ‘better’, and they are not compatible. I doubt if Musk fully conceptualizes the bitter conflicts inherent in his casual idealism. He pretends he’s saving humanity, but his actions suggest he’s bored and wants a new toy.
