  1. Investing the weekend in reducing some of the security debt of my digital private life, especially on services from external providers. Things like:

    - Rotating passwords to stronger ones
    - Enabling 2FA where possible
    - Enabling complex app specific passwords on apps accessing my accounts

  2. @newsguyusa The pardon-pen needs to be done away with. PERIOD! It’s always been used for good, but now we can see its weaponization. Time to end it for the presidency. #fascism #protectyourself #nooneiscomingtosaveyou #ReleaseAllTheEpsteinFiles

  3. I refuse to support projects that enable bullying and harassment online. It's crucial to hold individuals accountable for their actions, regardless of their status. Together, we can create a safer digital environment for everyone.

  5. If you're in the US, now is a great time to do a #CreditFreeze on all three of your credit reports. It's not all that difficult, just a bit of time.

    You do have to create freezes separately at all three of the credit bureaus:

    - transunion.com/credit-freeze
    - experian.com/help/credit-freez
    - equifax.com/personal/credit-re

  6. Did you know you can block an ENTIRE company from your network? It's easy with #OpenWRT and the #BanIP package. Is that extreme? Yes! Is it what you want to do? Probably Not! But Maybe it is.

    1) Search for the ASN for the company you want to nuke (e.g Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft).
    2) Use a tool to acquire a list of ASN IPs such as hackertarget.com/as-ip-lookup/
    3) Paste into the banIP blacklist and reload

    Upgrading your home router can be an excellent gateway into #linux, #selfhosting, and #infosec. Many sub $70 routers can be found easily that support OpenWRT.

  12. #Fredericton #DECH #hospital is in collapse.

    All of #NewBrunswick's #healthCare facilities are dangerously overcrowded, generally 3+ times capacity, and understaffed in doctors and nurses. Many nurses are travel nurses, costing 6x locals, but with 0 exp in the building.

    All hell is breaking loose and #BlaineHiggs brags about his surplus.

    Please join me in calling your #MLA, and health minister #BruceFitch to demand actual solutions and help!

    Enough is enough!

  13. The National Security Agency has received credible information about the rise of foreign hacking groups seeking to exploit the power of "programming socks". These highly skilled cybercriminals are targeting computer systems across the country and stealing sensitive information from unsuspecting victims.

    It is imperative that we take the threat of programming socks seriously. These fashionable accessories may seem harmless, but they have the potential to unlock untold levels of computational power, making them a powerful tool for hackers.

    Foreign governments and rogue organizations are aware of the potential of programming socks, and they are seeking to acquire this knowledge to use against our country. This is a threat to our national security, and it is our responsibility to protect ourselves and our communities from these malicious actors.

    The NSA urges all citizens to take precautions when wearing programming socks, including ensuring that their computers are secure and updating their anti-virus software regularly. It is also important to be vigilant when using the internet and to report any suspicious activity to the appropriate authorities.

    Together, we can prevent these foreign hackers from exploiting the power of programming socks and keep our country safe. Thank you for your cooperation.
