Switching to a hardware based login system and getting centralized alerts when that login is used is likely going to be the default, not some pipe dream. Plus, there's also the obvious solution for potentially stolen and misused keys .

You're making the false equivalence. There's no reason that using a password/key can't be just as detectable as using a credit card. Also trying to trace logins application side is rather foolish IMHO, this should always

Friends and family can also steal your credit card, but this is not where the majority of credit card theft comes from. Your example of people leaving the key with the laptop is a good example of one of the potential flaws, but just like if

Now that North Korea is becoming more friendly, one only hopes he's not grasping at straws to create a military conflict to create a distraction from his personal issues.

The author spends the beginning of the article talking about how he takes security very seriously, that his webserver is practically uncompromisable, and that the odds of it being compromised are so remote because he has "the reflexes

The only way someone is going to gain access to my server is if they manage to gain access to my workstation and steal my SSH key pair. If it has happened before, you'd be foolish to think that it's impossible to happen again.

Once you start going down this road, you'll find that people are of very different opinions as to who should own the means of production.

TOR is not meant for security, it's meant for anonymity. If you are logging into services that can identify you, checking your personal email over a TOR connection, or doing work over a TOR connection, you're putting yourself and

No, that's not what malice means. Unless you're actually trying to say that AT&T has a grudge against Cloudflare and are only doing this to harm their company. This is something more like negligence or gross negligence.

Aside from shovels, Goldman Sachs is also in the business of commodity manipulation, as showcased by their rather ridiculous aluminium scheme. Bitcoin is a commodity, and with the amount of money they have at their disposal, I can only imag

Cancer cells pop up in everyone's body all the time, and your immune system is fighting them off on a regular basis. It becomes a problem when your body is either overwhelmed or these things come up so often that it no longer recogniz

Not arguing that, but we're talking about Roundup, which we know is a health hazard and used everywhere. As a layperson, if the FDA hasn't been testing for this, it makes you wonder what they have been testing for.. or rather, it

I think the most puzzling part of the article for me was that the article says they've only been doing testing for this for two years now. I'm sure I'm missing some critical piece of information, but this seems like something

Yes, they're unwilling to shoulder the risk .. so why should they get to keep people's data? Because it's a small operation? Because the owner doesn't have time to secure it? Yeah, it's extremely easy to not shar

Depends on the screwup. If he were directly involved in doing something malicious or extremely negligent towards his customers he could be liable. If he can't trust himself not to be in this category though, I would argue that shutti

Unless the owner is doing something shady (or just doesn't understand the GDPR), the issue is pretty clear. He's running an unprofitable business (by his own admission), and likely is running it as some sort of sole proprietorship

I get where you're coming from, but Tesla engineers have seen those flanges and that extra steel in crash tests where these engineers have not. Your example would be more akin to assessing someone's code and pointing out potential

Or what's more likely is that Tesla didn't decide to make giant flanges because they're idiots, and they're not going to outright tell M&A what the reasoning is, because this is exactly the information they want to b

You're inferring that the only option is to interrupt someone, when it's perfectly possible to schedule a meeting or send a message asking them when they can make some time for a quick chat.

Depends on the vehicle. A great many vehicles have open compartment trunks. Pretty much the majority of vans, SUVs, and station wagons.. and most hatchbacks just have a small plastic tray that is easily removable from the inside.
