I feel that phishing becomes easier when there's no single authoritative site to log into, as people may not check the URL as thoroughly. Impersonation also seems problematic.

SkillUp on YouTube does a weekly review that is always really comprehensive. They also do longer-form reviews of individual titles similar to TB's old "WTF Is..." series. There's also an excellent bi-weekly podcast on the same channel.
