nixCraft is the only well-known tech professional who has written this. He writes from the heart. All of the other established, syndicated writers and techies at Ziff-Davis, Ars Technica, Marcus Hutchins, and the rest of them won't comment. These writers and technologists are complacent because they are fully anchored to their occupations. Most of them with the possible exception of Marcus Hutchins (who is an honest computer security researcher) are uneasy with stepping out of line.
Do better, #America! Don't put up with this crap from the corporate fascists. I've written about this quite a bit on mastodon and elsewhere. I've received several sympathy "likes" on mastodon but never been published or publicly recognized through this medium or any other mediums. Except for #nixCraft and a few others all of us are constrained by the reality of not ever achieving formal recognition. Also, many of the poorer activists and writers (that's not me) who do deserve credit don't get it from the industry here in America.
Fuck you, Donald J. Trump. Save America this November 2026 by voting Democratic down the ballot.
