  1. So the #Canvas folks paid the ransom (see nytimes.com/2026/05/12/us/canv).

    What's totally crazy is this statement from #Instructure (see instructure.com/incident_update), the makers of Canvas:

    > We received digital confirmation of data destruction (shred logs).

    Someone please explain that to me.

  14. I guess those who impose SMS-based 2FA upon their users never find themselves on transoceanic flights? When will this particularly idiotic manifestation of security theater finally die?

  15. "Full tunnel or nothing" is a security theater that kills network performance. If your CISO still pushes 0.0.0.0/0 through a 1Gbps pipe for remote workers streaming Netflix, you're not securing anything—you're just bottlenecking your own business. Split tunnel for corporate traffic. Let home traffic stay local. Stop pretending your firewall inspects TLS 1.3. #NetworkEngineering #SecurityTheater

  20. Real criminals don't steal a billion dollar$. They steal $2 from a billion people without making the headlines.

    Because nobody is going to care that you lost $2. Not even you.
