What's going on with Bruce Schneier's Blog?

14 pointsby grossvogelalmost 11 years ago
Since Monday, Bruce Schneier&#x27;s blog has come to resemble a security-oriented BuzzFeed, with titles like &quot;NSA Employee Flees to Hong Kong -- You Won&#x27;t Believe What Happens Next.&quot;<p>Is this a social experiment? A joke? A serious attempt to expand readership?<p>https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.schneier.com&#x2F;

I think that Hong Kong title is meant to be sarcastic. He was probably feeling ornery that day.<p>Honestly, the only difference I notice is a new look.

Ironic, since he&#x27;s bashed articles in the past for titles that employed these exact tactics

SEO at it&#x27;s finest. Bruce has bills to pay ya know.

he&#x27;s very clearly having a bit of fun by mocking buzzfeed and its ilk. nothing wrong with that.
