It's incredible how reactionary a lot of tech journalists are.
Is this a new thing? I feel like stuff like user privacy rights used to be pretty widely understood by tech journalists.
consent is being manufactured in real time. we're to only interact in algorithmically mediated walled gardens and won't we feel so safe then
I feel like there's a "generational" divide in tech journalism. The old school were basically bloggers with good writing skills who understood (at least on a layperson level) the technology they wrote about. New tech journalism seems like business journalism by J-school grads whose familiarity with technology is limited to tech company press releases.
Looking at that specific authors blog, it looks like he is approaching cyber security less from a technology and more from a true crime angle. At least in the headlines.
