Humbled to have been presented @nprofile1q... "Bad Actors Badger" Award this evening for the dogged pursuit of ne'er-do-wells.

The truth is, I am only the last mile, and can't do it without everyone else in the chain - every bit of development, every page of documentation, every sale closed, every customer who supports us, we're all badgers.

We are the adversaries - let's never let up.

Has anyone written a "Who's on first?" routine about DNS yet?

"What're you looking at?"

"A record."

"Yes I know it's a record, what is it?"

"A record that seems to be a C2 domain."

"Okay whatever, now you're just making up things with letters and numbers. Where is this C2 stuff?"

"Right here in the TXT."

"I KNOW IT'S IN THE TEXT BUT WHERE IN THE TEXT?"

"ANYWHERE IN THE TXT IT CAN CARRY ANY ARBITRARY DATA HOW IS THIS SO HARD FOR YOU?"

"I KNOW TEXT CAN CARRY ARBITRARY DATA BUT... YOU KNOW WHAT NEVERMIND JUST SHOW ME WHERE THE SITE IS!"

"THE SITE IS AT THE A RECORD"

"I'M CALLING HR, THIS IS WORKPLACE VIOLENCE!"
