Yeah, I like his content mostly, but he has had a few braindead non-privacy-related takes

His physical security video after the CTO of square died was not great. It felt too soon to be using his death to spread a message, and it relies far too heavily on the hypothetical idea that a gun could have saved him from harm. I understand that yes, a gun may have been able to prevent the attack, but it felt sort of ridiculous to insinuate that a gun is necessary to avoid a situation like this.
