Security theater != security

Congrats to my friend Bruce Schneier for a lovely write up in the Minneapolis City Pages. If you're happy to be able to carry lighters on planes again, thank him.

If you've never seen Bruce talking about security, follow that link to see a video interview with him on his company website.

You can also listen to his panel at Penguicon 5.0 entitled Security and Psychology (Part 1 | Part 2 - large files, but worth it).

I see that the government expert who disagrees with Bruce is named Clark Kent Ervin. I guess we know Superasshole's secret identity.

I must commend you on your fantastic icon. And I must randomly quote:

"I'm as poor as a church mouse, that's just had an enormous tax bill on the very day his wife ran off with another mouse, taking all the cheese."

Just because.
