I learned a lot about Mudge by reading "Cult of the Dead Cow: How the Original Hacking Supergroup Might Just Save the World."

For anyone wanting to explore 90's security nostalgia, it's worth a read. For anyone wanting to learn where hacktivism comes from, it's worth a read. For anyone wanting to learn about how security consulting has evolved over the years, it's worth a read.

Mudge is a very cool and capable individual. I am slightly surprised that Twitter would ignore someone of his talent and respect, and choose to air their dirty laundry in this manner. It's as if they have no idea who they hired. That, or C-levels think they can outpay $$$ any PR against Twitter to control the narrative. Either way, if Mudge is whistleblowing, there's probably some bad shit going down.

It appears that Dorsey was the one who hired him, and then Dorsey left, which might explain why they act as if "they have no idea who they hired".
