- mpyne 13y agoComputers do. Networks too, but the NSA and military have had networks far longer than the rest of us. The only thing that has really "scaled" here is the people themselves, and I don't find it strange that all the normal real-life problems have followed people as they migrated online.
- einhverfr 13y agoIt isn't just the net though. It's also deep pockets of the defence industry. If we really want reform, the uncomfortable truth is that the only way to reform the system is to reduce the amount of money flowing to defence contractors. Unfortunately I think, aside from a total economic collapse, pigs will sooner evolve wings.
