A moral society has no need for charity.

This seems like a worthy cause to spend the money I'm saving by not buying presents for or even talking to the family members who went full QAnon chud this year.

Once you're aware that it's a thing, it's amazing how frequently you'll see stories about cars driving into buildings.

I used to know a cop who's first crime scene in the force was when an intoxicated driver ran off the road and into a guy's first floor bedroom. The Jeep stopped fully over the mattress. The victim was lucky as gently caress because his mattress was on the floor and he was sleeping such that he was safely between the tires under the Jeep when he woke up.

Just finished grad cyber intel course yesterday when the news hit. Russian APTs are the best in the world with the quickest breakout time, followed by China who are couple hours behind. Basically nothing about this is surprising that it is Russia, how deep they got, and how unprepared the agencies were.

The fun thing about supply chain attacks is that they hit even prepared agencies hard. That said between the notPetya and CCleaner attacks something like this was inevitable. Supply chain vulnerability awareness has been growing but not fast enough to head this off alas

I have a lot of thoughts on the subject and not much time to give my Ted talk. The short, short, short version is we have about three (human) generations of IT technology never designed with security in mind now globally interconnected. Security is still seen as an optional upgrade strongly encouraged to be purchased by the end user. So you don't get economies of scale because no one has the incentive to remove generations of poor design choices and rearchitect our digital infrastructure in a secure way. Basically the public only sees the wildfires but the actual issue is the decades of abysmal digital forest ecosystem management.

This is a very technology centric view of security. Lately I've come around to seeing security through the lens of an immune system. The right balance is to invest enough in defense such that you're unlikely to die from an infection, but occasionally you'll get knocked on your rear end for a while.

Hence the short, short version. Infosec at it's core is a policy and regulatory problem, not a tech problem. Things are insecure because there is there is not accountability or liability to shift the economic incentive to favor security. The immune system model is much better than the old castle mindset of cyber defense though.

E: some other topical content.
