Comment: Many of the sources do not discuss Mr. Eftekhari in detail and/or are affiliated with him. For example, simple interviews and Eftekhari's podcasts are not independent sources. Please try to remove them and replace with reliable secondary sources. I don't think RSA conference is a reliable source for its bios. It could have been written by Eftekhari himself, without any authorship information. Ca talk to me! 02:06, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
