  • If you’re looking for a VPN, check out Mullvad.

    It’s just €5 / $5.25 / £4.15 a month. They haven’t changed that price since launching in 2009. So they’ve also been around a while. Does everything you need a VPN to do. And they’re based in Sweden, which seems to have some good privacy rules. They also don’t keep logs.




  • I enjoy that they’re focusing on ‘promoting pirated software and game cheats’ before talking about malware first.

    Cybersecurity ethusiast Karol Paciorek who spotted the playlist said, “cybercriminals exploit Spotify for malware distribution. Why? Spotify has a strong reputation and its pages are easily indexed by search engines, making it an effective platform to promote malicious links.”

    “I was not very happy with that. I think in this country, we have to work very hard because there is no substitute for hard work even if you’re the most intelligent guy."

    Funny how the out of touch billionaires keep pushing this line of thinking. The guy is on record saying he doesn’t believe in work / life balance and is currently pushing for a 70 hour work week in India.
