In 2017 I gave a talk at USENIX LISA: "Don't You Know Who I Am?! The Dangers of Celebrity in Tech."

I had basically no audience or platform back then, so the title hasn't aged well at all. If you can look past that, I think you'll enjoy what you find.

Rewatching this now; I had some good lines. And a lot of room for improvement.
Man do I love this slide.
“Good luck to those kr you on Google Cloud. I’m sure it’s going to end well.”

I was ahead of my time.
"Yes, a question: it sounds like this entire talk is about how not to be an asshole and attend conferences properly. How do we socialize this?"

I think it's gotten better since then, so maybe it worked.
Q: "How do you transplant this culture to infosec conferences?"
A: "I don't go to infosec conferences because they're toxic shitholes."

I stand by what I said.
