 I've been following Schneier only half as long as yourself, but even he has some dumb takes every so often.

People seem to need to be reminded to think about what they're reading, and disagree if necessary. Glad you're not among them!

 yes, first rule of cybersecurity is

TRUST NO ONE

always DYOR and Don't Trust, Verify, etc

it's hilarious to have to point that out to people who claim to be bitcoiners

 also, yeah, schneier's been pretty bad for about 5 years now... same political bullshit that i saw happen to boingboing.net and all its authors suddenly being very keen on writing against non-left wing politics, look also at what happened to Nassim Taleb, same fucking bullshit

makes me really wonder, how one would go about inducing these previously mostly reasonable people to start acting as hand wavers for your agenda?
