Trump cyber team, who is in – after Anonymous suggests John McAfee lead Trump’s cybersecurity team….

…read CBR’s 8 suggestions for the rest of the gang

By Sam

The hacker web site Anonymous has suggested that US President Elect Donald Trump appoint John McAfee as his cybersecurity advisor.

McAfee’s colourful history includes setting up the eponymous cybersecurity company, tweeting about his extreme life, and being linked as a person of interest to a murder.

(See John McAfee’s twitter account from which he has said he would decline any offer.)

What may have prompted the suggestion from the hackers could be Mr Trump’s own suggestion via a tweet that ‘many people’ would like to see interim UKIP leader Nigel Farage as the UK Ambassador to the United States.

In the interests of ending all cyber crime within the next week or so CBR humbly suggests that PE DT immediately set his best people on appointing the following:

Mr Walt Disney (deceased) – what Walt doesn’t know about ……isn’t worth knowing – simply defrost and reanimate or read what The Sun reports what we know about the legend of him being cryogenically frozen

That kid from War Games (IMDB)

HAL – yes that HAL, the artificial intelligent computer from the Arthur C. Clarke novel 2001: A Space Odyssey (best known for the quote “Open the pod bay door HAL” which he didn’t say but to which he answered: “I can’t do that Dave” link)

Thomas Edison, great inventor, businessman

Pickles the dog – look it up

Edward Snowden

And

Wiley Coyote and all the ACME Cyber Security companies

That should sort it.
