Did @DEFCONPolicy or @iamthecavalry inspire you to get involved with public policy or public service because stuff is on 🔥?
I’ve got suggestions on how to level up your involvement in tech policy—

Food for thought as we are playing in the AI policy space today at #SXSW2023–Algorithms are literally interwoven into our everyday lives.

Gooooood morning Austin! Let’s democratize #AI—with @aebrandenburger, @ColumnPBC, @LibbyEdiger, and @CrowdAIinc
Really loved this NPR episode I can send to friends and family about @NianaSavage’s persistence in NOT TAKING a free Nespresso machine and instead uncovering a fraud ring 👏🏼👏🏼
Ordering something online and not getting it stinks.
But when @nianasavage ordered coffee pods and got WAY more than she paid for, that didn’t feel right either.
Nina’s search for answers, and what it teaches us about a very hard-to-beat online fraud.

What a role with the Office of the National Cyber Director!
As ONCD continues to grow, we are excited to announce that we are hiring a Director for Cybersecurity Planning and Operations, a GS-14/15 role responsible for coordinating the development and implementation of U.S. defensive cybersecurity planning and operations.
Omg, as. #PerpetualVolunteer this is a gap I identified years ago and @Sightline_sec looks like it has potential!!
But, how much is this going to cost the nonprofits? Is there a minimum organizational size or maturity?
Do you have a favorite nonprofit? @Sightline_Sec is there to help them with security. Read about their cohort-led Kickstart program: sightlinesecurity.org/kickst…

Wow. #DEFCON30 was a trip, y’all. Was so glad to meet so many folks, both new and experienced, who are invested in making laws and regulations worldwide better for hackers.
