"#Antivirus software is a future Trojan horse."
There. I said it.
"But Rob! You were defending Kaspersky just a few days ago!"

Worse, our own global community has never proved it -- and we've got every good reason to prove it if true.
But hey, our industry turned the tables on Kaspersky the day his dictator launched a genocide campaign.
Because we're just like that. We've always been like that.

That's why our industry's #ThoughtLeaders can dance on a pinhead: because IT'S EASY!
The logic in the back of their minds is simple: "Kaspersky is a Russian billionaire who craves genocide in Ukraine and does anything Putin asks. I must destroy Kaspersky with all my willpower."

An innocent questioner came to me asking "Why do you start [see chart below] at 2021?"
And it stumped me. Because I've studied Steve Morgan's tweets enough to know he's touted "$3 trillion" since at least 2018.
So, why DID I start at 2021? Quite simply…

…I had Morgan's more recent #guesstimates in front of me when I first decided to "chart the math."
Really, though, his multi-trillion $$$ guesstimates date back to 2016. And they're not … exactly … "scientific," if you know what I mean:

Morgan's original multi-trillion $$$ #guesstimate waffled as it [d]evolved from 2016 through 2017 depending on whom he cited:

You know what's in store for #cybersecurity when "in person" conferences finally restart?
It ain't "networking"
Many of you will form #cliques based on your vehement political beliefs, NOT your cybersecurity beliefs
Our industry will be all the less for it. What a shame!

I've bitched since 2009 (see below) about #influencers¹ who CANNOT stop talking about their airline woes, and why we must vote for their politician, and etc.
How DARE you force #infosec newbies to follow "the whole you"!

I'm NOT alone in this belief. Newbies occasionally speak up to tell #influencers "I followed you for your expertise, why did you stop?"
You want to tweet? That's your right.
You want to be an #infosec influencer? That's a privilege.
Time for you to #ShitOrGetOffThePot!
