Weird. My level of concern: I buy every copy with a credit card at Barnes & Noble.
- freehunter 10y agoRight? I work for a major tech company and can get a subscription delivered to the office if I wanted to, paid for by my employer. I feel like a lot of independent hackers (as well as government officials) don't realize that hacking and info sec in general can be (and currently is) a completely acceptable enterprise occupation. If hackers were being rounded up and sent to jail, I can count at least 4,000 people at my company who would be missing Monday morning. And that's just the number of people connected to my Slack team, which is not mandatory to join.

- douche 10y agoEven more nuts: > On more than one occasion, all hacker-related clothing was also thrown in the trash. Watch out! Don't wear that 1337 hackerz t-shirt! That sounds like a case of paranoia that someone ought to see a professional about.
