I received a notification from a subscription service informing us that Akemi’s information had been compromised in a hack. At first I was “This is a scam” – but the email checked out. In addition to a rundown of the situation, it offered a link to a free subscription for a cyber-security protection service that would monitor – and provide insurance against – identity theft. My initial reaction was “This is a scam” – but the link proved legitimate, as is the service (Norton). So, just to be extra safe, I went to the official Norton site and signed in using the promo code provided, downloaded the device security and secure VPN…when my laptop prompted me for my apple I.D. to complete the installation – at which point I thought “This is a scam!” and bailed.
Granted, it retrospect, I’m being paranoid. It’s legitimate software from the legitimate Norton site sent my way by the legitimate subscription service. But I figured I would just sleep on it.

On second thought – here, take him!
Uh oh. Here comes trouble.
Enjoying the fresh air.

Amazing people with whom I have worked…
