David Koff (he/him)

I'm a tech writer who focuses on digital #privacy & #security. Sometimes #politics & #comedy for shitz and giggles.

I’m a longtime systems admin who worked at places you’d recognize. I’m an avid surfer 🌊 🏄‍♂️, animal rescuer 🐈🐱, a lifelong #Phillies fan ⚾️🏟️, an improviser, a loving husband, and a VERY proud poppa.

I support #BLM #LGBTQIA+ #science and - as a proud #jewish man - the unequivocal right for the State of #Israel to exist.

Ah, another arrogant douchecanoe telling me who or what I am, what being a #jew should be according to him or why defending a country’s right to exist = supporting atrocities.
It’s like you’re 5.

My job isn’t prove my credibility to you. Or anyone. If you don’t think I’m credible then ignore or block me. Or MAYBE read through my timeline and dig deeper.
Stop being lazy. I won’t spoon feed you.
That being said, I’m a #jew and have friends and family in #israel - a country I love. So yeh: you’ll see me defending its right to exist from rabid #antisemites on this platform.

respectfully disagree. Per @npub1afm…5gp4 :
But the attack *requires*:
👉 *physically opening the YubiKey enclosure*
👉 physical access to the YubiKey *while it is authenticating*
👉 non-trivial electronics lab equipment
There’s nothing brief (or cheap) about that.
This is a proof of execution that #yubikey should fix, not a global panic alert.

Yes, let’s talk ethics.
1) Stop citing numbers of dead. It’s unethical as it cannot define what is or isn’t a just war.
2) Stop citing the numbers of schools & hospitals destroyed without also providing context. THAT is unethical. #hamas places their combat units IN those locations. And have for decades. Geneva Conventions be damned! They put their OWN people at great risk because they are savage #terrorists

Why do you choose to use math instead of morals/ethics here? There is no math that justifies the slaughtering of 1200 innocent participants at a music festival.
Math isn’t a consideration when determining whether or not a country is just in defending itself or when trying to rescue its hostages.

BREAKING: #hamas just murdered six most #hostages JUST as the #IDF started to gain ground on their location.
All shot in the head at close range. Because, you know, that’s how REAL peace loving people show their willingness to agree to a #ceasefirenow
Guessing that’s as horrific to you - if not more so - than a disappeared doctor?
