It will be interesting to see what kind of train wreck ensues when they rule in favor of presidential immunity. Some bullshit argument like "the president is subject to impeachment and is otherwise immune". End of even the illusion of a functional legal system, return of the god king.
My kid is LGBTQ. Probably a good idea to renew. My wife spoke a european language fluently (but rusty). I could maybe find an infosec job somewhere but I'm in my 50s and monolingual so idk. Not sure what countries would have us. I guess I need to figure it out pretty soon.
That's because the right wing has moved far beyond reality, evidence, logic, reason, semantics—only ever casually familiar to them to begin with.
They are now only about feelings.
They are trained, ala Pavlov, to react to the sounds of certain words, not their meaning: woke, liberal, groomer, trans ideology, gay agenda, immigrant, and the like. The right wing pundits could just have easily used different bells and sound clips to evoke the same reactions.
What progressives need to do is come up with a long term strategy to get more political and cultural influence. Then maybe in a few decades we can finally achieve some of our goals.
“Youth are not thinking about this as Biden vs. Trump,” says Elise Joshi, the executive director of Gen-Z for Change. “They’re thinking about whether their issues are being met or dealt with." Joshi and her fellow organizers say that Biden and the Democrats must earn their support. “They need to be worried that this generation is not going to show up,” she says.
Did they forget what the Trump years were like? Or were they all too young to pay attention and their parents never said anything? Maybe they just don't have enough life experience to understand the importance relative to past elections. Not to mention that in the US we don't teach them history in any useful, interesting way, so most new voters have insufficient context for what's going on right now. Or maybe they're the type that would prefer not to pull the trolley lever.
That's not what (the new hype buzzwords) Zero Trust Architecture means. Like at all.
Instead of the crunchy shell network perimeter and gooey center paradigm of enterprise networks of the past 30 years, ZTA is a response to the nebulous and disappearing permitted. It's supposed to control access to anything anywhere anytime but securely.
The main feature is dynamic attribute-based network access control. Access can be granted or revoked moment to moment based on who you are, where you are, even attributes of your computer like patch level.
Let's say a patch just came out for your laptop yesterday but it isn't applied yet. ZTA approach denies you access to sensitive networks, but not to patching infrastructure. Once patched, your access is permitted. Or say you turn off your antivirus mid-download. Access revoked within moments.
Rather than erect silos it sort of makes access more transparent to the end user and so remote vs on site access basically seems the same to them.
Yeah, yeah, I know, NSA bad-- I am wearing the EFF T-shirt that says so right now.
But in addition to wrecking privacy and spying on the innocent (hi, you fuckers, .l..), they also do offer somewhat legit advice now and then.
