  • Distance Fingerprint Scanner. 2 meter range. Mmm. Not yet convinced. http://www.technologyreview.com/biomedicine/27052/ #
  • YouTube – Jascha Heifetz plays Paganini Caprice No. 24 – http://goo.gl/HpBvY # culture for today #
  • @darrenmoffat Was chatting to Geoff last night, and wondering if clone-promotion existed in the wild, yet. #
  • I love having friends who understand security. The people who ignore paranoia, but instead apply inference and common sense. #
  • @ShappiKhorsandi Considered growing up. #
  • Am drinking white tea. Think I am on my 6th refill of this cup, the buds are getting soggy at the bottom but it still tastes OK. #
  • @bubbva PBR? #
  • @bubbva Oy. #
  • Has anyone done a Stylophone app for iTouch/iPad? #
  • @glynwintle And thereby we earn our keep. :-/ #
  • @GeekChickUK Would love to, but can't think of anything – Have gotten used to unconferences like BarCamp, so having a CFP feels weird. #
  • @GeekChickUK Especially 3 months in advance. What happens if something interesting happens 1 week before the conference? This is not USENIX #
  • If you know about #ExtraordinaryRendition see http://goo.gl/0Xc9T and http://goo.gl/2hV8v – not tasteful #incirlikcoin #
  • RT @s3cb0t: Critical Security Update Released for Tor: The Tor Project has released version 0.2.1.29 … http://bit.ly/e9hHR6 #
  • @csoghoian @tqbf Never. In that direction lies Government-mandated antivirus^Wsnooping for Linux. Consider it "Socialised AntiVirus" #
  • @csoghoian Dude, I think you're great, but why is it your problem? Really? Who made you, or anyone, CISO for the world? #
  • @asteingruebl Unpatched machines don't cause harm. They are disease vectors. So are children. Encourage vaccination, but don't legislate. #
  • @asteingruebl And so yr claiming domain over the entirety of the net, for yr own ends. Declare yrself King of America while yr at it. 🙂 #
  • @asteingruebl I strongly believe that education is the only way, and that unintended consequences of legislation could kill the net. Almost. #
  • @asteingruebl This includes my position on loss of network neutrality http://dropsafe.crypticide.com/article/4337 – hence my optimism #
  • @asteingruebl That's an American law, isn't it? #
  • @asteingruebl I suspect all regulation is poor regulation; I've seen enough fuckwittage inside coporates to see goals drive behaviour #
  • @asteingruebl …and that bad goals are astoundingly more common than good. #
  • @asteingruebl Depends whether you mean Rule, or Law – there's a difference, and we are talking Federal-type Laws wrt: Computers/@csoghoian #
  • @asteingruebl @csoghoian 1) Fight the regulation. 2) Embrace the evolution that renders the regulation irrelevant. #
  • @asteingruebl Third option: Or we can have no laws. #
  • @asteingruebl "Internet as-is won't last a lot longer without more liability." – A lawyer told me that, pre-2000 #
  • @asteingruebl The Net already has a "liability regime" – fraud, libel, theft, loss etc; You seem to look to add more liabilities to it #
  • @asteingruebl Kiddie drowns in pool over here, it's Misadventure, or CriminalNegligence – it's not the pool that's at fault #
  • @asteingruebl Give me a sample of @briankrebs writing and I'll tell you what I think. #
  • @asteingruebl I submit that a) there are problems and b) the proposed solution is not even a solution. #
  • @asteingruebl 1) opt-in to commercial service is fine 2) EULA dubious in UK law – "statutory rights" 3) "fit for purpose" is the only std #
  • @asteingruebl Google "ACS:Law" for state of the art in UK lawsuits of that form; and frankly most EULA violations are never "discovered" #
  • http://bit.ly/hVCNCf — Design the next great hair style for Julian #Assange (#Wikileaks) #
  • oh dearie me. and with that, goodnight all… #
