The Importance of Staying Focused: Redirecting Discussions within Our Community

In recent times, our subreddit has seen an influx of career-related inquiries, distracting from our original purpose of discussing topics pertinent to the business of cybersecurity. As a community dedicated to the latest trends and developments in the field, it is crucial that we maintain our focus on relevant discussions.

Many members, including myself, joined this community to stay informed about cybersecurity news and innovations, not to wade through a stream of career questions that could be addressed elsewhere. For those seeking career advice or guidance, there are dedicated subreddits designed for that purpose, such as:

• /r/SecurityCareerAdvice/
• /r/ITCareerQuestions/

Additionally, the recurring theme of Artificial Intelligence and its impact on employment is becoming overwhelming. Posts questioning whether “AI is going to take our jobs?” pop up regularly, contributing to a cycle of repetitive content that detracts from our specialized discussions.

It’s important to remember that this platform should remain a space for cyber security professionals, as outlined in our community guidelines. When we stray from this focus, the valuable insights that we could be sharing become diluted.

While I understand the eagerness to delve into these popular topics, I urge all members to consider the implications of our discussions and to respect the intended purpose of this subreddit. Let’s strive to keep our community vibrant and geared towards meaningful conversations that truly reflect the interests and expertise of cybersecurity professionals.

Thank you for your understanding, and let’s work together to enhance the quality of our discussions going forward.
