I am a hobbyist security researcher, filterlist maintainer, and wannabe law nerd. I help maintain the Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool. I post about a variety of topics including cybersecurity, content filtering, law, tech, and trans rights. This is also the best place to find updates on my filterlists, as I often post about bugs and improvements to them.
I am not an expert; do not take anything I toot as truth. Retoot/like != agreement. Not legal/medical advice.

Profile picture: truncated screenshot of a WINE error message. The error message is titled "Download failed". The message reads "Download Failed: Success. Check your connection and click 'Retry' to try downloading the files again, or click 'Next' to continue installing anyway." There is only one button labeled "OK".

Header image: A Windows error message against the default Windows wallpaper. The error message reads "Windows cannot find iam-py-test. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."
