UK (England and Wales?) people the 'care.data' medical data grab is back, and it needs a new opt-out form ("Type 1") the previous opt out you may have completed - "Type 2" / "National Data Opt Out" - won't count the official form (give it to your GP practice): https://digital.nhs.uk/binaries/con...t-out-form.docx more info: https://caredata2.nhsdatasharing.info/ https://medconfidential.org/for-patients/gp-2021/

“never hire a security professional who has been through a breach” is some poo poo you say when you’ve never had the ceo of the company asking you to do some sketchy bullshit because they can’t be bothered to take even a second to care

OTOH, never hire a CEO who's been in charge of a company during a breach.

I did my CS bachelor's and a security engineering masters at SMU's engineering school. The IT degree under the business school was a perpetual joke. It basically prepared you to be a consultant who could fix company's buggy VB scripts

Unless someone hosed with the SMU website, he's real or someone has done a fair amount of work to impersonate him just to write a stupid article in his name. https://www.smu.edu/cox/our-people-and-community/faculty/Allen-Gwinn Thankfully it looks like he's qualified for a backup career as a scuba instructor since it doesn't seem his IT career is so hot.

He has been on twitter defending his opinions in the way you would expect someone who is overly confident in his obsolete abilities. Supposedly he barely teaches IT (much less infosec) and is mostly credited for dealing with library IT stuff. Sickening fucked around with this message at 03:13 on May 19, 2021 |

He also runs a web 1.0 blog with what I'm sure is a lovely template but I don't do webdev at all so I can't say for sure. Is linking it considered doxxing? I'm truly fascinated with the level of smug this guy is and the complete lack of demonstrated ability.

I don't think a professional website could be considered out of bounds. If I'm wrong, some mod please delete that. He's right though, start firing doctors and nurses for every patient that dies. Clearly I was a great nurse since none of the patients actually died on the floor with me, totally ignore the fact that almost never worked in the ICU. poo poo wait I was in the same hospital.

Oh no that's it for me. I wouldn't even know how to, plus that'd be a dick move just because he wrote a dumb article. I just wanted to see if he patched his own stuff, which seems to be a fat no.
