Personal news 🎉 I’ve joined Georgia Tech as a tenure-track Assistant Professor in both Security & Privacy (@GaTechCyber) and Computer science (@gatech_scs)! I’m looking for CS students interested in the nexus of computer security, privacy, and democracy. 🧵

We have discussed this with State and Federal authorities. This is obviously fake, and likely it is a production of Russian troll farms. As Americans we can’t let our enemies use lies to divide us and undermine faith in our institutions - or each other.

Thank you to our law enforcement and federal partners for keeping our elections secure and voters informed.

We are committed to providing accurate, trustworthy information about our elections and to combatting disinformation. Visit vote.pa.gov/FactCheck for facts and common questions.
Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency@CISAgov

Today, @CISAgov, @ODNIgov, and @FBI released a statement attributing yesterday's fake video destroying ballots in PA elections to Russia. Local election officials already debunked this video. Election officials are the trusted source for election info. go.dhs.gov/UMQ

Sony is removing access to hundreds of PURCHASED shows from PlayStation accounts. I figured this would happen at some point. It appears they have done this previously with a few titles. Anyone aware of instances of this on other platforms? businessinsider.com/playstation-re…

William Eskridge (@EskridgeBill), Brian Slocum, and Kevin Tobia (@kevin_tobia) argue in “Textualism’s Defining Moment” that, even after committing to textualism, judges must make at least twelve subsequent choices, calling into question textualism’s rule-of-law value.

The class is an updated version of another course I co-created at MIT, along with my advisors @djweitzner and Gerry Sussman, loosely based on my dissertation. If you're at GT and interested in these topics, definitely register for the course and/or reach out!

This semester I'm teaching a course in Security, Privacy, & Democracy. It's a survey research seminar with a set of broad themes -- voting systems, encryption & surveillance, censorship, and free & open communication. Check it out! mspecter.github.io/CS8803/schedul…

@idonibrasco That's a fantastic question. I can't stand exams, and prefer project-based classes where students focus on doing interesting & novel work. Much of the grade in this class comes from evidence that the students studied the material, discussed it, and applied it in the project.
