I remember the 768-bit DHE in Java and the Nest problem in 2015. I wonder if that has led to the VP of security hire when Alphabet was created later that year.

I am also thinking of DRM. Thinking about it, part of the reasons music labels got big is for economy of scale when mass producing CDs for example. Of course, such economy of scale was not needed anymore with the move to digital distributio

One of the reason I don't consider the timing attacks that important is that there are often easier ways to bypass ASLR.

JWS and JWE aren't as bad as JWT itself. You can use them without the JWT header.

F00F is probably worse in practice than the recent timing attacks. For the average user, I think even the perf hit from the workaround for the timing attack is probably not worth it.

My favorite is that the more the FBI/NSA spends, the more government debt get printed. You may know that the government shutdown is because of a debt ceiling.
