This is very interesting coming from someone with a strong background in security and definitely not what I would expect to hear. Has IE ramped up security in later versions, has it always been like this or what?

That's exactly my primary point - Government, as you say, can not come out publicly and have their hands tied in many ways. Google can, and this, combined with their size, konwledge and brand, makes them a strong player in international pol

It is very interesting that the State Department is playing second fiddle to Google here. Intuitively I feel this has pretty far reaching consequences. - Apparently Google has uncovered a chinese attempt to infiltrate a number of American c

It's one of those borderline posts - on the one hand it isn't really hacker news, but on the other hand it's important and about basic freedom. Which is dear to hackers. I think it has merit,so I upvoted it.

Based on your posts here and your blog, if I look at what I would want to use that expertise for in my company it would be something different. You have an experience in tech and entrepreneurship that is one in a thousand, and that shouldn'

Interesting. After the obligatory vanity search I tried searching for people I know have different (more technical, less startup/strategy(marketing) taste than me. And it seems to work quite well. I have nothing in common with those guys :-
