*A Hacker's Mind* is security expert Bruce Schneier's latest book, out today. For long-time Schneier readers, the subject matter will be familiar, but this iteration of Schneier's core security literacy curriculum has an important new gloss: *power*. wwnorton.com/books/97803938 1/

I can’t stop thinking about this today. In a way, especially the last tweet. Why are we letting them get away with it? Why aren’t we uniting and throwing them out? Why are we doing nothing?

I'm still struggling to process the full awfulness of The Times' expose yesterday, about the appalling practices of @BritishGas in fitting pay-as-you-go meters in the homes of vulnerable people. It brought back terrible memories of my brother's suicide...

Martin Lewis died in obscurity in 1962; a retired art teacher who had found some success in his early career, but was largely forgotten. Lewis spent his last three decades teaching other people how to etch. History chose Edward Hopper, but Martin Lewis was his mentor.

I am thrilled to finally share this news! My MG novel NOWHERE SPECIAL is coming later this year! This story runs deep for me. It's about that first friendship that changes you and that place you grow up wanting to escape while believing you never will. bit.ly/3RkS2ki

An announcement from Publisher's Weekly that reads, "Ben Rosenthal at HarperCollins/Tegen has acquired Hugo Award winner Matt Wallace's next middle grade novel, Nowhere Special. The story is about two kids, Stan and Elpidia, who find hope in an unexpected friendship as they navigate challenging family circumstances and a dangerous local gang in the desolate Southern California desert. Publication is slated for Fall 2023; DongWon Song at the Howard Morhaim Literary Agency did the deal for North American rights.

Thanks Johnny. This is very helpful and timely as we’re running out of oxygen here with the optimism we put into GDPR nearly five years ago to hold a few major surveillance capitalists accountable. Sadly, it’s been misused used by bad actors against stronger privacy US laws.

This is where AI is going, isn't it. AI content being viewed by AI bots allowing bad actors to skim (even more) millions of dollars advertisers think are going to legitimate prospects. All of which is paid for through higher costs for real customers like you and I.
