Revised draft after decline

[edit]

I've rewritten the draft from scratch after the previous version was declined. The new version is shorter and uses a more neutral tone. I welcome edits and feedback. Gabyscaringe (talk)

  • Comment: I went through the sources to find ones that meet all three WP:42 criteria. Here's what I found:
    Sources that meet all three:
    # Ars Technica - This one's the strongest. The journalist interviews Crown Sterling (the opposing party), and their CEO and COO describe Guido's actions at length. Guido himself only gives a one-sentence response. The coverage of Guido comes from the other side, not from him. It's ref name="ars-crown-sterling" in the draft.
    # Vice/Motherboard - Same Black Hat incident, different angle. The reporters talk to Guido, a Facebook cryptographer, Black Hat's spokesperson, and Crown Sterling. Guido is the central figure. Also in the Crown Sterling section (ref name="vice-crown-sterling").
    # Cyber Insider - Covers a social engineering attack that targeted Guido by name. Different incident from Crown Sterling entirely. BleepingComputer also covered it independently. Both are cited in the ELUSIVE COMET section.
    # The Register - Reporting on Crown Sterling's lawsuit. Guido is named and described as having "barracked the presentation and was removed from the room by conference security." Not currently in the draft but could be added.
    Close and worth considering:
    # ProPublica - Julia Angwin calls him "computer security expert Dan Guido" and credits him with coining "FBiOS," a term she then uses three more times in the piece. The article is about the Apple-FBI dispute, not Guido specifically, but the "FBiOS" term carries a lot of the argument. Ref name="propublica-apple" in the Apple-FBI section.
    # Vice/Motherboard - This is probably the longest single piece about Guido (~1,000 words, he's the subject throughout). It does include quotes from him, but the journalist also independently tested the app, got reactions from Harlo Holmes at Freedom of the Press Foundation and Leigh Honeywell at Tall Poppy, and reported on Apple's App Store review process. It's ref name="vice-iverify" in the lead and iVerify section.
    # Boing Boing - Xeni Jardin wrote this specifically about Guido's FBiOS analysis, calling it "widely cited." The whole article is about his work. I'm just not sure if Boing Boing passes WP:RS. Ref name="boingboing-fbios" in the Apple-FBI section.
