Online #Privacy begins in your offline life. I am interested in preserving personal privacy when possible, clawing it back, balancing privacy with reality, continuous learning and changing my mind. Remaining private, but being a realist about it all. My posts are around security/privacy, offline and online, covering the basics, amplifying the pro-privacy voices, agitators, threats, ethical hackers, experts and resisters.

With Judge Chris Taylor’s win, liberals increased their hold on the court. Judge Taylor, 58, a former Democratic lawmaker, promised to defend democracy and protect the right to free speech if elected. She is the third liberal to be elected to the court in three years.

We just had a blizzard in the Northeast #USA and in #NYC a news reporter just wanted some empty chatter about the weather

Local View: Stauber's bill bad for BWCAW, all public lands

From the column: "It's healthy to argue over what to do with public lands. ... The BWCAW is our nation’s most popular wilderness area. It’s a unique landscape. There is no backup."

DAVID BOWIE
I’m Afraid Of Americans
1997 U.S. 12” Single

My splurge for this month, and an appropriate record for our present day.

SIX different versions of an amazing song, with help from Trent Reznor & Ice Cube.

Amazing find, today. Couldn’t allow myself to pass it up, despite the price tag.
