pending crisis in computer security, Darfur, Somali pirates, global
warming, civil war in the Congo, ...
Feel free to *try* to go for a week and *not* turn your head at a
crisis you hear about. Actually care about every single one. Let me know how it works >out for you... Not to make any those issues seem inconsequential, but Somali pirates don't affect every business in the world. Yes we need to do something about it, but it won't shut down many businesses. Global warming, well Al Gore (inventor of the Internet) will tackle that. Civil war in the Congo is basically a regional thing. But computer security is something that affects almost everyone. Don't you think it's more difficult to turn your head to issues that directly affect you? Just curious. -----Original Message----- From: Valdis.Kletnieks () vt edu [mailto:Valdis.Kletnieks () vt edu] Sent: Thursday, November 20, 2008 3:00 PM To: Thomas Raef Cc: funsec () linuxbox org Subject: Re: [funsec] Cybercrime as destructive as credit crisis On Thu, 20 Nov 2008 13:51:13 CST, Thomas Raef said:
But don't you think cybercrime is much the same? Don't so many people turn their heads and ignore the pending "crisis" in computer security?
