schestowitz"That said, I'd say it still matters how easy something is to access. Even if the NSA has the equivalent of every keystroke logged by a keylogger on Windows / Mac, it still takes more resources to extract all of the passwords from that data than if they just have direct access to the password files unencrypted. The NSA has a lot of resources, but their Achilles heel is that it's not unlimited and they are dealing with utterly Jun 01 20:11

schestowitz"What do you think the purpose of Apple's Spotlight and Vista file indexing was, Bugs? If you don't control your computer it controls you. Even with free software, complexity is dangerous and I have my doubts about semantic desktops. In most cases, our computers are doing the dirty work for someone else."Jun 01 20:11
schestowitz"Jun 01 20:12
schestowitzCouldn't agree more, and that's why I consider them accessing these targeted things like password lists and semantic desktops inherently more dangerous than some blanket tool that grabs everything.Jun 01 20:12
schestowitzWhat irks me is that I see so many people arguing a defeatist line that "well the NSA has probably recorded everything everywhere anyway, so why bother even trying to protect yourself?" To me, they often miss the point that even if the NSA has recorded everything, including every keystroke and every mousemove, that it's much harder for them to gain valuable information from that than if they can directly access say, "just" your Jun 01 20:12
schestowitzpasswords, bank records, contacts, email, phonecall and geolocation records. With these records it's all nicely laid out in a spam free format that requires no processing (a significant task with the size of their data collection).Jun 01 20:13
schestowitzI say if they want our data, flood them with it, specifically non-useful data, and make it take as much work to extract value from it as possible. Personally, I'm a big fan of sending vaguely titled, highly encrypted, PGP signed, video files of kittens doing amusingly cute things and suchlike to friends (who like that kind of thing) just to keep them busy. :)Jun 01 20:13

schestowitz__    just about every PR firm offers to help "manage the perception of your company in online communities" these days. What do you think that means?
