anyone else ever try to close a tab with ctrl+w, but miss and hit ctrl+s and you're like "nooooo, I don't want to save this, or really any, webpage ever.
I can't consume the word "reconnect" without thinking of a friend of mine who uses "reconnected at an alumni gathering" as a euphemism for hooking up with this guy (at an alumni gathering, to be fair), who would later become her husband and the father of her child and a really good friend of mine.
@Gwideon I mean that the lore is probably the reason why people thought to make a TTRPG for it. It's a very in-depth world with lots of conflict, and Games Workshop has always encouraged expanding the lore in your own way with your army in WH40K, so it seems a natural extension to bring that to tabletop. The mechanics of the two games in no way gel, I agree, but the story is all there
Plus, playing through something like the Horus Heresy could be pretty fun
@MikeQ If you have resources to share, that would be helpful. Most people don't have the training necessary or even know where to start looking to learn.
@BESW Well basically one needs to think like an attacker. And an attacker tries to connect a trail of info dots, pivoting off each dot to find more and more pieces of personal information, until eventually they build a cohesive picture
Defense involves two things: - Securing each datapoint, such as changing your passwords or even closing unused accounts - Isolating datapoints, so that an attacker would have trouble connecting your accounts
I'd say a practical goal is such that it would be inconvenient for a random user (assume low-skill), starting from only one online account, to quickly identify your meatspace self
@MikeQ I appreciate you are trying to help and have good intentions, but....maybe check to make sure people are okay with you doing this poking around at them first maybe? Because bringing up how easy particular people are to find, while may be true, is...an uncomfortable thing to have publicized.

I get that you are attempting to assist, but maybe start with general advice stuff and then people can contact you if they want specific help?
(I know how findable I am, I've made my peace with the bits, please do not go poking, it's rude. Extra if you do go poking, please don't say what you find. I know what's there, and what's lurking...but let my dead stay dead please.)

It's not safe for you to be revealing people's bits on them, even in the name of helping, even obliquely.
