I'm finished with Twitter. Tweeting about things I care about has started to feel too much like actually working on things I care about, and that's not good. I'll stick around LinkedIn, so please connect with me there if you'd like to continue our conversations.

Hi. I work in government technology. We have been trying to launch a three-page static web site for ONE YEAR, but can't because of lack of infrastructure and approvals. Blockchain is laughably out of touch of the vast majority of real problems of government.

Happy Data Privacy Day! I love data privacy and I don't care who knows it. Remember, if you are going to share your data with third parties, make them work for it. They need to earn your trust and it is a privilege for them to have your information. Have a very private New Year.

@tdlowden A time management coach once told me that when you get back from vacation, furlough, whatever just delete all your email. Read none of it. There will be no negative repercussions. That was 8 years ago. I've done it ever since, and he was right.

If Trump really wanted to see Hillary locked up, he should’ve just hired her to work on his campaign.

Today on @AmericanAir “some passengers have asked us about our new red aviator credit card” > no they didn’t. Every AA flight spams the plane with the “exclusive opportunity” Just admit they are partner & you have a deal. Don’t make up reasons why I get pitched this card weekly

Six Flags argued that the family did not have the right to sue because they were not "aggrieved" -- ie, there was no physical or monetary harm.
But --and this is BIG news, folks-- the court ruled that having your biometric data collected without permission qualifies as harm

Vera Bergengruen is a fantastic national security reporter who's fluent in three languages. She's a meticulous journalist who regularly breaks news, and her contributions to McClatchy's Panama Papers coverage helped their DC bureau win a Pulitzer. Hire her asap.
