    One way you know this is LLM generated is that I'm somehow on it.

      And for criticizing adding security to DNS, which is like half your comments on HN, which AI is trained on.

        Ordinarily I'd push back on this, but we shouldn't be having a real thread on an LLMspam story.

        It's funny, trade magazines used to do these quarterly roundups of like "the 40 most influential people in computer security", because they were reliable ways to get security bloggers to link back to the trade publications. I don't know what the point of this list is!

    Good list. I'd add Hedy Lamarr, Cliff Stoll, Steve Jackson of Steve Jackson Games, John Draper (Cap'n Crunch), and RTM (Robert T Morris), but I'm certainly not faulting the list in its current form.
