VX Underground for the "Levine" of the cybersecurity space

also a big fan of:

- marcus hutchins

- geohotz



Crebs on security - I think he is the Matt Levine of the cyber security.

Joel Spolsky's blog (Joel on Software) was also very pleasant read on software back in the day


While entertaining they aren't really Levines. I don't think any of them give you beyond a superficial understanding of the topics they work on (and, arguably, sometimes they provide inaccurate or exaggerated views).


And "everything is securities fraud" isn't? It's hilarious, but definitely exaggerated. Matt Levine is interesting while also poking fun, which is practically the definition of entertaining.


I mean, you can come up with the same kind of shtick for security: "every bug is just an opportunity to use Rust", "you can't outrun the Mossad", etc. But you aren't really going to get that kind of content, regularly, from following geohot on Twitter.
