    I remember reading about him in 2600 back in the 90s. Then reading his books in the 00s, and seeing him every time I had to do KnowBe4 training the last few years. While a polarizing figure there is no doubt he was an inspiration for many in our field. RIP

    Free Kevin!

    I remember seeing him speak at Comdex 20 years ago. He was as funny as he was clever. RIP

      Maybe when he started. Towards the end he was riding on his name alone and not really contributing much.

        Yeah, that’s called settling down. It’s a natural part of getting older.
