I’m Raphael Satter, the journalist who recently reported on the silence enveloping the cybersecurity industry in the wake of political tensions surrounding SentinelOne and former CISA chief Chris Krebs. If you’d like to delve into the details of this situation, you can read the full article here.

The piece has ignited meaningful conversations, and I’m eager to gather further insights from professionals within this community. I would appreciate your thoughts on a couple of key points:

1. Have you or your colleagues experienced pressure to refrain from commenting on social media regarding this matter or broader topics related to prominent figures such as Trump, Musk, or the current administration?

2. Are you feeling that your research in cybersecurity or misinformation is being stifled due to concerns about government scrutiny or backlash?

Your experiences and insights are invaluable and may shed light on the current climate within the industry. Thank you for considering sharing your perspective!
