| Why wasn't the laptop FULLY encrypted to begin with?
Typically, I find that
most people, in business, laywers, doctors, etc... are clueless about tech and
the real risks.
And, the answer, that the government and lawyers seem to
think of first is to make a law to require computer security, and that those who
write software with bugs are to then, become criminals themselves (just because
they write code the only way it can be written).
OMG... to use a computer
one should read this by
Jennifer Lapell, for starters,
...and then pick up a few books by Bruce Schneier and
others. AND, then pass a test that tells us that they understood what they
read!
Then, if they still want to create laws to protect us, they should be
sent to see a psycologist, because they have us fooled in some way to pass the
test and still be _______s!
A secure computer network has not been invented,
so it can't be legislated.
Computer Security is an oxymoron, period.
If
the government needs help, it's in understanding that!!!

Just thinking you gotta be weary of buying an iPhone now. Not
only did they expose the fact that the FBI must be collecting
these for some crazy reason, but these people's accounts are
in jeopardy as well. If not their lives. Addresses, Phone
numbers, email... these hackers could spoof their accounts
and threaten all kinds of havoc.
But still what is the FBI doing with 12 Million iPhone users
private information??? Now that to me is the scary part! [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

- a study by one privacy researcher in 2011 found that 74% of the
apps he tested sent a user’s UDID to a remote server. But the same researcher
also found that
five out of seven social gaming networks he tested allowed
users to log in with only their UDID, making a stolen UDID equivalent to a
stolen password.
forbes
So would somebody please tell me how to require an ICS
handset to ask for my password when I want to log on somewhere? Oh I know,
passwords are so old school, weak
security, annoying to do on a small touch
screen, &c. &c., but at least a password request is an indication to the
user that some token effort to security is being made. Or is that
why they now
call it the Play Store? I just checked my phone, it has one hundred
twenty nine certificates, multiples from some like thawte and verisign, and
others from
places I never heard of. This is a factory clean rom installed two
days ago, and only been to Google, Groklaw and my local newspaper.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
