So that tweet was misunderstood
I'm currently experiencing the toxic hell that is a misunderstood tweet going viral. It's a property of the social media. The more they can deliberately misunderstand you, the more they can justify the toxicity of their response. Unfortunately, I had to delete it in order to stop all the toxic crud and threats of violence.The context is how politicians distort everything. It's like whenever they talk about sea level rise, it's always about some city like Miami or New Orleans that is sinking into the ocean already, even without global warming's help. Pointing this out isn't a denial of global warming, it's pointing out how we can't talk about the issue without exaggeration. Mankind's carbon emissions are indeed causing sea level to rise, but we should be talking about how this affects average cities, not dramatizing the issue with the worst cases.
The same it true of health care. It's a flawed system that needs change. But we don't discuss the people making the best of all bad choices. Instead, we cherry pick those who made the worst possible choice, and then blame the entire bad outcome on the system.

Enforcing Network Security Policies with GitOps – Part 1
“How do I enable GitOps for my network security policies?” This is a common question we hear from security teams. Getting started with Kubernetes is relatively simple, but moving production workloads to Kubernetes requires alignment from all stakeholders – developers, platform engineering, network engineering, and security.
Most security teams already have a high-level security blueprint for their data centers. The challenge is in implementing that in the context of a Kubernetes cluster and workload security. Network policy is a key element of Kubernetes security. Network policy is expressed as a YAML configuration and works very well with GitOps.
We will do a three-part blog series covering GitOps for network security policies. In part one (this part), we cover the overview and getting started with a working example tutorial. In part two, we will extend the tutorial to cover an enterprise-wide decentralized security architecture. In the final part, we will delve into policy assurance with examples.
Note that all policies in Calico Enterprise (network security policy, RBAC, threat detection, logging configuration, etc.) are enforced as YAML configuration files, and can be enforced via a GitOps practice.
By adopting GitOps, security teams benefit in the following ways:

Deep Dive: How the News and Media Sector Scores on Security and Privacy
In April 2019 the Internet Society’s Online Trust Alliance released its 10th annual Online Trust Audit & Honor Roll. The Audit looks at the security and privacy practices of over 1,000 of the top sites in various sectors. The news and and media sector, compromised of the top 100 news and media sites according to US traffic to their websites, improved its privacy practices in 2018. Like most sites, however, there is still room for improvement in privacy statements.
In 2017 less than half (48%) of news and media sites made the Honor Roll. In 2018 that number went up significantly to 78%, largely due to improvements in privacy statements. Privacy is scored in two ways in the Audit, we look at trackers on each site and we score the privacy statements across over 30 criteria.
One area where news sites did not improve was in the use of trackers on their site. Out of all the sectors news and media scored the lowest in trackers with a score of 39 (out of 45). Part of the reason for this is the news and media sector relies on advertising revenue, which often requires the use of trackers to serve ads.
