Hi folks, my name is Kevin Veale. I'm a Senior Lecturer in Media Studies and fiction author.

"He/Him." Tangata Tiriti. Pakeha.

I'm into a wide variety of popular culture stuff in lots of different media forms, some of which I write about academically. I reshare stuff that amuses me, post random thoughts or resources, and generally hang out.

Thing is, I have so much nostalgia for getting got by that particular meme that I'll go ahead and click the link even when I know what's going to happen.

the point being that you see the link for what it is before you click it. making you ten times more likely to spot a phishing attempt before you do anything harmful to yourself.

so go ahead. enjoy rick astley. he did more to protect your personal information than any organization, browser, or set of transport protocols/mechanisms up to and including end to end encryption. lol

it's a benign but very obvious result from a deceptive link, like stepping on a land mine and then having it deploy a flag that says "bang"
