Not sure what the connection with Colorado U might be but I read this [0] a couple of days ago. Steve Bellovin had a few connections with formative Unix security and worked/studied with Fred Brooks and Ken Thompson, In the (linked) talk he says that Brooks taught him "about responsibility. Someone with the root password has not just the right but the responsibility to use it." This caught my attention because I'm writing a series "Technology: rights or responsibilities?" Maybe there's a thread of influence there? [0] https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2024/11/steve-bellovins-retirement-talk.html https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2024/11/steve-bellovi...
