That's a good one, but I think "This World of Ours", Mickens' treatise on the practical realities of operational security (specifically keying material handling), should take the top spot:

- Analemma_ 9y agoThe nice thing about this one is that it actually does have some important kernels of truth amid all the hilarity. Especially this bit about threat models: > Basically, you’re either dealing with Mossad or not-Mossad. If your adversary is not-Mossad, then you’ll probably be fine if you pick a good password and don’t respond to emails from ChEaPestPAiNPi11s@ virus-basket.biz.ru. If your adversary is the Mossad, YOU’RE GONNA DIE AND THERE’S NOTHING THAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT More security researchers need to learn about that.
