Today marks the 51th anniversary of the assassination of #MartinLutherKingJr.

A brief history of the web:
1994: like .plan files, but with pictures
1999: an emerging marketplace
2004: socialization! Commerce! Industry! Collaboration!
2009: democratization of content production and distribution!
2014: everything is now about immediacy of updates and a firehose of information
2019: like .plan files, but with pictures

Current gender: Non-practicing male.
I was raised culturally male, but never really practiced, y'know? Still, my parents were not super happy when I decided to convert.
I just observe the major holidays like sports and emotional repression.
@ksclarke dear deity! I was on my way to bed and now... I hope you’re happy! 😂

Hey infosec people: do me a favor and assume the "use case" for anyone you don't know personally includes facing poverty, discrimination, state-sponsored oppression, corporate surveillance, domestic abuse and harassment while using your product.
Then design accordingly.
please and thanks

NAACP returns Facebook donation, calls for boycott
Interesting: The NAACP has returned a donation from Facebook and called for a daylong boycott of the social network Tuesday following revelations of how its platform was used to manipulate black voters in the 2016 presidential election.
They want a boycott of fb and twit Tues, Dec. 18th.
I'd like to do my part, but I boycott 24/7/365 so I doubt they'd notice my absent absence :-)
