For a very long time, I had a bad habit of getting sucked into discussions on Hacker News, Reddit, and social media platforms about software security and cryptography.

This proved to be largely an unproductive use of my time, but occasionally someone found it valuable.

Then in 2020 I started a blog, which honed my writing skills and made me a more effective communicator all around.

Recently, I joked about offering my critiques as a paid service in a Fediverse shitpost. I didn't expect there to actually be significant demand for it!

So, in lieu of dropping 0days on Twitter trolls, I'm offering critiques as a service.

The elevator pitch is: Wanna know how bad something is from an hour smoke-test from an Internet furry?

If that's not a compelling offer, that's fine. It's not for everyone.
