Hi Barrett,

Well this is me. Freelance journalist / writer / commentator / producer based mostly in and near Sydney, Australia, but right now in Melbourne for a few days after covering Linux.conf.au in Ballarat and then the War on the Internet forum with Jacob Appelbaum and a bunch of relevant Australians on the weekend.

About 75% of what I cover is related infosec / cybercrime / cyberwar / privacy. The rest is anything in or near the intersection of the internet, politics and media. And my personal background, apart from a media career, is computing science, network admin etc.

The "Patch Monday" podcast tends to cover that territory.

I'm not quite sure whether today's episode will be about the War on the Internet forum or whether I should invite you to chat soon. I've no idea what time zone you're in. But maybe something in the next few hours might work for you? I have to get some other writing out of the way first.

Cheers,

Stil
