I just received a password expiration notice from district IT.

It is so frustrating that they still use such outdated security practices. We can't even use a password generator because this one password is used for log on to all devices as well as access to all accounts via the SSO dashboard. MFA is also not a thing.

The End of Roe Will Bring About a Sea Change in the Encryption Debate

US law enforcement officers and agencies have shown us with their own actions that they don’t deserve any deference whatsoever in discussions about encryption policy. They aren’t entitled to any presumption of legitimacy. They are just another one of the threats that encryption protects people from.

If you use Venmo or similar money transferring apps, I encourage you to set your transactions to "private".

I have Venmo just for contributing to collections for gifts and other things for work friends.

Many of my contacts and their contacts seem to use it for lots of things, as you can see from their publicly-posted transactions and posted comments.

You could build up quite a profile on someone from this info. Does everyone really need to know everything you are spending money on?
