Was actively disappointed to hear about the state of the @UOWDMS when I popped by UOW last week, but heartened to hear there's still appetite for it. It's a great opportunity, so definitely have a crack and get involved as an exec! #BCM #bcm110 #bcm112

#BCM fam, I’ve seen heaps of demand for the Bloggies, but for this to happen we need a new @UOWDMS team. Who is willing to step up to bring the club back to where it was? It’s a big responsibility and lots of work but crucial to the culture we enjoy in this degree.

More governments and commercial enterprises are waging information campaigns, and getting better at it— we need more long term academic research, not less. ⁦@BostonJoan⁩’s work has helped build the field. washingtonpost.com/technolog…

Diplomats & international relations scholars are still trying to come to terms with private sector intel providing attribution for intrusion sets & describing actions on objective. Now multiple shops under same ownership are making independent mutually reinforcing statements.

Soooo tired of the cliche that “tech outpaces law.” This is often not true, but it has become accepted as an inherent, immutable feature of tech and law’s relationship through the power of repetition. More accurate: Tech lobbyists against regulation. Tech avoids enforcement.
