phr4ctal<p>my first post here with this handle will be about someone i've never met but has had an impact on my journey into infosec/hacky stuff. <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://infosec.exchange/@karver" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>karver</span></a></span> once gave a talk at my community college. it was my first time being exposed to anything cybersecurity, let alone ever learning about digital forensics. his talk was about the case of cari farver. i remember feeling quite awed with his talk, the sounds and little quirky things, it really gave me a different perspective about people who are hackers and it honestly sparked something inside me. </p><p>i recently watched the netflix documentary "lover, stalker, killer" which is about the case, and it really brought forth a lot more details i haven't seen before and it really left me sad about what happened to this lady but also incredibly inspired by people like anthony who use their digital abilities for good. it is something i aspire for in myself with my journey. </p><p>there are things in this world that are dark and disturbing but it's good to know there are people out there using their talents to help bring closure and light to situations that feel like you'll never get answers for.</p><p>below is a link to his recent <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/defcon32" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>defcon32</span></a> talk, and a link to the cari farver memorial scholarship. </p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1GvHMlzXOY" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=_1GvHMlzXO</span><span class="invisible">Y</span></a></p><p><a href="https://farverscholarship.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">farverscholarship.org/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
