Security Briefing – April 20th
Author: The Intern
Great morning folks!
After 100+ hours away from the internet, less one escaped tweet, I am quite convinced that I am in firm denial of how much time I spend online daily. I have a lot to process. If you cannot remember the last time you went more than 24 without internet access, I’d highly recommend it.
Make it great, if it already is not.
Signed,
