- ArchD 7y agosecure system != security system There is such a thing as an insecure security system.
- m0skit0 7y agoSo if I build a flawed security system, it is not insecure?
- jtbayly 7y agoOf course it is. Just what the parent said. It is an insecure security system. (As opposed to a secure security system.)
- AstralStorm 7y agoCue "protected by ROT13 encryption" jokes. US wanted to have this as a law and got quickly informed how insane it is.
- krapp 7y agoROT13 is for rank amateurs. I protect my data with multiple rotations of ROT26 encryption.
- ajsnigrutin 7y agoBut knowing the flaw makes it insecure.
- monocasa 7y agoIt was insecure whether you knew it or not.
- madmulita 7y agoSo, it's not protected by YT's definition.
- monocasa 7y agoYeah, YouTube's definition is self serving, and breaks apart for many important use cases. Their real definition is "we allow/block whatever makes us look good in the court of public opinion", and to think they have any real definition beyond that is a fallacy.
- pbhjpbhj 7y agoI expect it's a slight more meta metric, I doubt they care about the court of public opinion beyond its relevance to company profit.
- monocasa 7y agoSure, but the medium term relevance to company profit isn't a metric you meaningfully have until it's too late to do anything about. You can actually react to the court of public opinion, and reacting to that will pretty much give you a level of CYA as a decision maker, so there's not really a down side on that end.
