Since this comment seems the be getting down voted, it might benefit from context: Activ8te is Niels Provos (author of this article)'s EDM pseudonym, where he's making music with cyber security themes:
> To address this scarcity of talent, I've pursued a very unconventional approach. I've embarked on a new venture as an EDM (Electronic Dance Music) producer under the artist name Activ8te, creating cybersecurity-themed EDM tracks. My goal is to captivate a younger audience and ignite their interest in security topics. Some of my recent tracks, like "Teardrop Falling" and "I Am Tracking You," explore challenging security themes such as denial of service, censorship, and the risks to our privacy posed by sophisticated spyware (Activ8te, 2022). By raising awareness and enthusiasm for the field, I hope to contribute to the expansion of a skilled security professional pipeline.
