For our US friends, as context, this is akin to Rudy Giuliani being a cybersecurity expert. Partly, because it simply never was Sebastian Kurzs area of expertise, mainly because the referenced corruption scandal centered around the use of Whatsapp to facilitate said corruption, so, you know...
Well it's more like Rudy Giuliani starting a bitcoin company regardless of his expertise in any one particular area right, which basically has happened a couple times now: https://www.ai-cio.com/news/former-associates-rudy-giuliani-...
The NY politician to grifter pipeline is interesting (Giuliani, Adams, Cuomo).
He has already IT experience then. Surely he learned something out of it. Securely using apps. Discretely handling deals, etc.
Anyway from their webpage: > We work directly with heads of state, ministries, national cyber authorities, and the senior officials responsible for executing national strategy.
So I presume he has and provides contacts. Just the usual one hand washes the other. Nothing nefarious I'm sure.
LMAO, you mean he learned to install Signal and turn on disappearing messages after all of his chat messages, obviously implying corrupt political practices, were read in a special government committee? The guy doesn't even know what DHCP is, "I'm sure". I almost feel bad that company is getting traffic from HN. Kurz is such a disgusting little worm.
