A LinkedIn direct message from Stuart Grant, CISSP, CEH, Principal Information Security Architect at Itron Inc. Dear Brian: You suck. Leave your damn politics out of it. This is not a political platform. Me: Hey Stuart. I'm sorry the guy you voted for is a Fascist. You should really start paying attention instead of burying your head in the sand.

   I've noticed something that I think is worth pointing out: pretty much ALL of the pushback I have gotten on LinkedIn over the past few months over stories critical of this administration has come from men in IT. Many of whom no doubt idolize Musk, who in their minds can walk on water.

   Conversely, the response almost universally I've seen from female non/male people in IT and security professionals on LinkedIn has been a great deal more appropriate, i.e. horror, disgust and revulsion for the way this administration is treating federal employees, veterans, the courts, judges, lawyers, journalists, and important, long-standing U.S. policy interests.

   I guess what I'm saying is nobody should expect the men in IT to lead the resistance. So many of them are like this guy: angry, aggressive, and really excited about the good old US of A going back to the 80s. Like the 1880s.
