KrebsOnSecurity is a really weird website. I feel like I should be the perfect audience for it, as a software engineer who is very interested in security and reverse engineering, but every time I try to read their articles it just comes across as paragraphs and paragraphs of overwrought fluff with zero actual content. I guess their audience is someone with less technical knowledge who is impressed by empty phrases like "startling discovery" and "online hucksters and website hackers" and "resilient and incestuous". And that's all just in the first paragraph here. Get to the point, man.
Huh that’s weird I feel the exact same way and should also be the natural audience.
Every time I read an article though I feel like my eyes go cross eyed. It’s like you said, the words are there they should make sense, but I find my attention wandering.
It’s like they are written by a very very early LLM.
I stopped reading his website after he started spreading disinformation about Ubiquiti.
