This is very cool!

Being in infosec for so long takes its toll. I've come to the conclusion that if you give a data point to a company, they will eventually sell it, leak it, lose it or get hacked and relieved of it. There really don't seem to be any exceptions, and it gets depressing.

I responded to Mark Nunnikhoven's "What do you look to get out of conferences?" Mornings with Mark as part of my post-conference blog: matthewmiddleton.ca/bsides-st-john…
