Sums it up

Someone recently asked me how I defined security. I really had to think about that. Fundamentally, it seems to be about making it easier for users to the right thing, and/or harder for them to do the wrong thing.



Service provider should own this goof-up

This story by Motherboard about how US mobile companies are still selling real-time location data on their customers is an important read. Transitive trust is not okay. Long past time for lawmakers to require court order for access to this data motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/… #zumigo
