Hi all, been lurking for a few days but introducing myself now! I'm Matt and a

#security

reporter at WIRED. Like many others here, I'm coming to Mastodon after the chaos at the bird site in the last week.

The things I cover on a regular basis are

, cybersecurity,

#surveillance

, internet freedom,

#tech

and human rights, and a bunch more things in the wider security realm.

I'm based in

—and have lived here for the last decade—so I'm often reporting on issues from across Europe. When not writing words for the web, I'm often found

#running

and have been dabbling in the

#ultramarathon

a few times over the last few years
