Also 'second language' prevalence
Quote Tweet
This is London
56% of its population is ethnic minority
These are 1st languages spoken by residents in each borough after English. Something to consider when we provide health & care, in particular medication information

In light of failings in What3Words, lots and lots of people have come up with solutions.
But very few people seem to have actually analysed the problem.
In fact, a lot of people haven't even considered what problem is trying to be solved.

In my opinion its often better to turn off ipv4. It's pool is so tiny everyone and their dog is scanning the entire range day and night.
My Linux vm barely gets login attempts or pings on IPv6

NEW: income inequality in US & UK is so wide that while the richest are very well off, the poorest have a worse standard of living than the poorest in countries like Slovenia ft.com/content/ef2654
Essentially, US & UK are poor societies with some very rich people.

JBM writes for the - a publication not overly known for its left wing bias.
So when he puts out something like this?
Pay attention.
We are not a rich country.
Ours is not an equal society.
This is not sustainable.
Rich people telling you that you are doing well is a lie.

Please RT for reach: If you get a marketing email from a company claiming they could "stop the Uber breach" forward it to me at the email in my profile.
I'll remove your info, put the scammy vendor on blast, and we can all have fun dissecting why they are in fact bad people.

Seriously though, ya'll should review the risk you take with the zero trust flat network dream you've been sold.
Definitely enable number matching/verified push for all logins regardless. These kind of attacks have been happening all year, at very large orgs.
