Null03Hey, hi. I know it’s been a while. Hope you’ve been well. 
Where have I been?! Just let me explain.
TLDR; series of unfortunate events in my personal life, will resume the Privacy Roundup starting Oct 1 which will be the main focus.
The past 6-8 months have been a little more than just rough. I got laid off in May (fortunately saw it coming, but still), had a death in the family, lost some people I thought were friends, witnessing friends struggle, all around the same time. I didn’t mean for my impromptu break to be this long, but needed some time to decompress.
Quite frankly, I just didn’t have the bandwidth to dedicate in this space and manage the personal things going on. I should have probably announced taking a break and communicated it better to those of you kind enough to follow and engage with me, so I am sorry for that. For a hot second I considered just shuttering everything, but I have still been monitoring news and sources and na, we absolutely need #privacy awareness, tools, activists, everything.
With that said, “coming back” to avoidthehack.com (I never left, to be fair), I realized the site sprawls across too many topics and I need to focus on a handful to make it sustainable for a 1 person operation. 
While I figure that out, I will be focusing exclusively on the Privacy Roundup and remaining active here on Mastodon. Starting in Q4 (October 1), I will begin posting that regularly.
