I did a bunch of interviews today and something really stuck with me - being told that a lot of politicians are trying to decide if climate change or infrastructure cybersecurity is more pressing.

Climate change deeply impacts geopolitics and military policy. Therefore it is a cybersecurity issue. The DoD has always understood this. You can’t look at the “APTs” and terrorist orgs we deal with and not consider how climate impacts will continue to motivate them.

@hacks4pancakes I'm also going with cybersecurity because those who are going to be in power when the effects of climate change really take hold are going to be all about silencing descent. My bet is that they'll try to write history in a way that makes it look like capitalism saved the day and helped the few who survived survive. Those who say, "Well, actually they basically caused it to begin with," will meet violent ends. We will need to share information securely and privately.
