  1. Max "Hot PAM Startup" Eddy (maxeddy@infosec.exchange)'s status on Tuesday, 23-Apr-2019 11:32:46 EDT Max "Hot PAM Startup" Eddy Max "Hot PAM Startup" Eddy

    My colleague Michael Kan has a great story out about a fake VPN review site, and how its scam worked.
    Sites like these piss me off because they poison the well of consumer confidence. How can anyone tell what reviews are real, or what companies are trustworthy, when sites like these exist?
    These sites also piss me off because they make my job—actually reviewing VPNs—even harder.
