"Rick Key is 100% a sock puppet. If you're not familiar, it's what infosec experts call bot accounts that are created with nefarious objectives, typically data harvesting for profit. Modern sock puppets use generative AI in order to create the illusion of humanity in order to better encourage targets to supply their salary, title, and other demographics. This data will be packaged and sold to anyone willing to pay. "
