#SocialEngineering … a 🧵
Do a web search of “social engineering” today and here is the definition you’ll find:
“Social engineering is the tactic of manipulating, influencing, or deceiving a victim in order to gain control over a computer system, or to steal personal and financial information.”
Wait … WHAT??? 😳
I’m old enough to remember when the term social engineering actually meant what the term sounds like it means.
Here, I submit that the change in meaning has been intentionally brought about, as cover, by the those who are the real societal engineers in the world today — #TechBros.
But first, a little history.
