For this weeks #WTFWednesdays, let's jump into #hysteria
1/ The concept of "hysteria" has a long and troubled history in psychiatry. It dates back to ancient Greece and was initially used to describe a wide range of physical and mental symptoms in women.
1/ The concept of "hysteria" has a long and troubled history in psychiatry. It dates back to ancient Greece and was initially used to describe a wide range of physical and mental symptoms in women.
2/ "Hysteria" comes from the Greek word "hystera," meaning uterus, reflecting the historical belief that women's mental & physical symptoms were related to the uterus and its movements. This belief led to the notion that women's symptoms could be "cured" by removing the uterus.
3/ Over the centuries, the diagnosis of hysteria was used to blame women for their own suffering and pathologize normal emotions and behaviors. This led to a widespread belief that women were inherently unstable and prone to mental illness.

But who really benefited from maintaining the #hysteria fueled by the pigs' suffering and tails?

Let's talk cybersecurity #jokes while we still can.
You probably don't take on a company like @McAfee or a person like @CybersecuritySF like *I* do. But most of you DO enjoy a joke that uses #sarcasm, #burlesque, #irony, and/or #satire to make its point…

One of the ongoing debates in OilWorld: How much spare capacity remains in the system to produce oil at additional levels, globally, in case of emergency?
Answer: it’s running out & there ain’t no more!
#PeakOil is back! ⛽️ ✈️ 🚗

Let us not forget the words of the late, great Matthew Simmons (paraphrasing): “Once Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 has peaked, then the world has effectively peaked.”
Ergo, there’s no spare capacity to offset banned / boycotted Ru oil. Ergo, global oil mkt = sellers mkt now.

Military leaders on ALL sides suffer an ages-old problem.
They once preferred bows & arrows over guns; then they preferred horse-drawn artillery over tanks; and now they prefer manned aircraft over drones.
"Cyber" to them is a soldier with a laser pointer guiding a JDAM...

Most #cryptocurrency exchange owners and #newschannels in #India seem to be pretty much clueless about what the exact definition of a private cryptocurrency is.

This confusion and chaos has been driven by the recent #hysteria about the government apparently confused whether to do a #cryptoban or #regulatecrypto.
All those news articles that sprung up about the #fakeban, initially were based upon this generic understanding that all #cryptocurrencies are private in nature.

I will now fully defend @jonathanreiber's assertion.
Notice his key phrase: "a measurable economic impact on the American population."
This measurement derives from the fact #ColonialPipeline itself chose to shut down its operations "out of an abundance of caution"...

...so we can rightly say "computer security #hysteria led to a measurable economic impact on the American population."
But ... have there been UN-measured impacts?
Certainly!
I can cite my hilarious audio column from exactly 20 years ago today:

I consider it a first -- a true first! -- that we can measure a real economic impact from computer security #hysteria.
Now we have a cyber attack on the world's largest meat supplier. And it won't surprise me if @JBSCareers shuts down all operations "as a precaution."

Both Clinton in 1998 and Obama in 2009 hyped up cyber attacks similar to what we saw with #ColonialPipeline. "[Criminals] extort money by threats to unleash computer viruses…"
Clinton & Obama used their hype to issue flawed executive orders—
—just like Biden.

And now #ColonialPipeline has openly admitted THEY pinched our nation's feeding tube. No cyber terrorist did it!
They shut down the flow of oil as a #precaution when a cyber-mugger told their Billing dept. to "gimme all your bitcoins":

Four days ago, Chris Krebs confirmed cyber terrorists had remotely shut down the east coast's lifeblood.
His tweet is why I fueled my pickup that very day with $140 of diesel at $2.67/gal at Dodge's gas station on Rt 49 in Gulfport MS.

Cybersecurity #hysteria has done amazing things over the last three decades.
And I do mean "amazing"!
It led us the knee-jerk idea for a "precautionary disconnect," which is when we shut down our operations to prevent a computer attack from shutting down our operations.

Of course we now know it was #ColonialPipeline who shut down their own operations, not the cyber terrorists--
--because they don't trust their own cyber security team.
And why should they?
I've railed for two decades on the *true* purpose a CISO serves to a company:

The report was developed by members of the WHO Technical Advisory Group on Behav. Insights & Sciences for Health, chaired by Cass Sunstein, largely credited w/ developing/popularizing notion of "nudges" as policy tools.

#Hysteria was originally a diagnosis only given to women
