Back in my day, I got into security from a whistle I found in my cereal box. I don't see why kids these days are complaining. Probably the avocado toast.

(Narrator: I'm not _that_ old, but my path was about as relevant as Draper's to today's infosec).

Where can I follow @jerry 's private jet?

@GossiTheDog To be fair, he's such a narcissist that his motivation may simply be "Biden's people appointed these folks, therefore they're bad".

Also Krebs was on the CSRB, and Krebs said the 2020 election wasn't fraudlent, so he clearly had to go.

Good morning infosec mastodon, Question for this collective brain-power:

How do you threat model random USB-C adapters found on Amazon.com?

Seems to me they're all random brands I've never heard of before, which makes me wonder if the've been compromised by the CCP or other governments? Do you worry about it? Do you stick with specific, more expensive brands?

Thanks!
