Let's talk apathy for a moment. We bemoan users for it. We see the issue with it, yet as #infosec folks who know better, we participate in it. I've been seeing this trend in our community. It was particularly visible when the TikTok privacy concerns were brought to light. 1/
On one extreme, you had those that over-reacted and sensationalized it, agreed. But on the other, you had this weird reaction of "Well it's no worse than what FB, Twitter, and others do." I have two issues with this response. First, it flippantly and irresponsibly 2/
dismisses the unique nature of what and how they gathered the info. Second, since when to we as security folks say "Well everyone's doing it so don't worry about it"? I'm seeing this occurring more and more every time there is news of a privacy breach. I'm even starting to 3/
see it in official communications for orgs who used to be champions of privacy. Look I get it, it's exhausting and overwhelming. So much news of this every day. But are we in security just giving up? WTH? #DoBetterBeBetter /FIN
