<br>
Hi all,<br>
<br>
Over the weekend, journalist Fred Kaplan published an article in the New York Times, entitled "'WarGames' and Cybersecurity's Debt to a Hollywood Hack" (<a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/21/movies/wargames-and-cybersecuritys-debt-to-a-hollywood-hack.html?_r=0" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/21/movies/wargames-and-cybersecuritys-debt-to-a-hollywood-hack.html?_r=0</a><<a href="https://websitecheck.quinnipiac.edu/canit/urlproxy.php?_q=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5ueXRpbWVzLmNvbS8yMDE2LzAyLzIxL21vdmllcy93YXJnYW1lcy1hbmQtY3liZXJzZWN1cml0eXMtZGVidC10by1hLWhvbGx5d29vZC1oYWNrLmh0bWw%2FX3I9MA%3D%3D&_r=cXVpbm5pcGlhYy1lZHU%3D" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://websitecheck.quinnipiac.edu/canit/urlproxy.php?_q=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5ueXRpbWVzLmNvbS8yMDE2LzAyLzIxL21vdmllcy93YXJnYW1lcy1hbmQtY3liZXJzZWN1cml0eXMtZGVidC10by1hLWhvbGx5d29vZC1oYWNrLmh0bWw%2FX3I9MA%3D%3D&_r=cXVpbm5pcGlhYy1lZHU%3D</a>>).<br>
<br>
The core argument -- that WarGames culturally influenced the Reagan administration's cyberpolicy -- sounded a great deal like communication scholar Stephanie Ricker Schulte's work. When I brought this reference to Kaplan's attention on Twitter, he was super dismissive and minced my words. So, naturally, I wrote a blog post about the incident, situating it within a broader trend of tech journalists (mostly men) minimizing the work of academics (mostly women), and capitalizing on this sin of omission in promoting their own books and other works: <a href="https://merylalper.com/2016/02/22/please-read-the-article-please-cite-women-academics/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://merylalper.com/2016/02/22/please-read-the-article-please-cite-women-academics/</a><<a href="https://websitecheck.quinnipiac.edu/canit/urlproxy.php?_q=aHR0cHM6Ly9tZXJ5bGFscGVyLmNvbS8yMDE2LzAyLzIyL3BsZWFzZS1yZWFkLXRoZS1hcnRpY2xlLXBsZWFzZS1jaXRlLXdvbWVuLWFjYWRlbWljcy8%3D&_r=cXVpbm5pcGlhYy1lZHU%3D" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://websitecheck.quinnipiac.edu/canit/urlproxy.php?_q=aHR0cHM6Ly9tZXJ5bGFscGVyLmNvbS8yMDE2LzAyLzIyL3BsZWFzZS1yZWFkLXRoZS1hcnRpY2xlLXBsZWFzZS1jaXRlLXdvbWVuLWFjYWRlbWljcy8%3D&_r=cXVpbm5pcGlhYy1lZHU%3D</a>><br>

I'm really interested to know the thoughts of this community, both as one that knows the history of cyber law/policy inside and out, but one with many members committed to egalitarian principles.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
