It's funny because people complain all the time about how strict security policies are....right up until something gets hacked and then they moan about how the organisations should have done more to protect their accounts.
- userbinator 9y agoI'm in the former group but not the latter. I would gladly have some insecurity because it's an indication that we have not become a completely authoritarian society (yet). Bad things happen, that's just how life is and should continue to be; and trying to stop them all will result in something very dystopian.
- laumars 9y agoOnline security has nothing to do with dystopia. Running a site over HTTPS works completely transparently to the visitor. Yes there is a little extra pain for the sysadmin setting up the service but that's what they are paid for (and I say this as a systems administrator). Plus this isn't even the governments intervention, this is browser vendors raising the bar for online security.
