List' Sorry for taking a role of "moderator". Pretty often we see discussions around politics on this list. It seems to me that it is natural. It reflects that we are the people and have certain concerns which live in us together with professional stuff. We cannot avoid outbreaks of such discussions. This list is a part of our life though. Suggestion: assign one day of a week to "release steam" and talk whatever we want to. "Purists" can just ignore discussions on that day. And as usually: "you are right, and you are right too". Cheers and be patient. Mikhail A.

Too bad folks in the other OT thread on this list (and around the world) don't feel the same way about economics -- and other things, like healthcare, for that matter... Its all about manning up and making yourself secure in whatever way that means to you, no matter how futile everything ultimately is. As we exist within a thin, delecate biosphere wrapped about a rocky conglomerate hurtling through cold, uncaring space and have only arrived in our current state after millions of years of lethal evolutionary struggle it is shallow to think that we have somehow arrived at a special point in time and struggles no longer apply -- and that now all that must be done is write a few laws and freedom, liberty, information privacy, jobs and free bags of money will come pouring in. Nobody cares about your problems, your health, your liberty, your freedoms, your life or your privacy but you. And nobody can be compelled to be concerned with such things, they themselves being in the same situation. Laws are a fancy way of attempting to coerce the government monopoly on violence to enforce a sense of caring within society, and this always fails (and is usually, in the ultimate irony, centered on money and materials, the very things that "caring" isn't made of in the first place). This applies whether we're talking about "my online privacy" as if it were a right, "my healthcare" as if it were a right, or even child education or employment.

Take responsibility for your own email. Encrypt it if you must, but for heaven sakes, own the fact that it is publicly visible. If we do not take responsibility for our own email and whine about others reading it, than there will HAVE to be regulations by government to protect us. That's what government does. That's what it is SUPPOSED to do. So before we invite Godzilla to protect our email, how about we just man up and take responsibility ourselves?

Hi Guys,
First and foremost, apologies if you feel this is spam- don't mean to, just trying to harvest some knowledge... I am
looking into the overall cost of a hack, trying to figure out what kind of actual costs are incurred by businesses when
they are hacked, so a few things:
1. Do you have any real world figures you would be able to provide me,
officially or unofficially- that would reflect the real cost to business of
hacking? These Include:
A. Any cost for personnel repurposing.
B. Any cost of resources for Bandwidth, Cloud Computing Cycles Consumed, or other miscellaneous
expenses associated with an active attack.
C. Cost of regulatory compliance updates ( So, say someone is inside of PCI compliance during an
attack, the cost of re-upping their compliancy and any associated costs.)
D. Hard losses due to product stolen/destroyed/rendered useless
E. Projected losses due to customer turnover and/or loss of customer trust relationship.
F. Customer Interaction/Trust Relationship Costs (Notifications,Call Center Volume Redistribution
for Questions regarding breach, Discounts)
G. Losses due to fines and lawsuits
H. Cost of Public Relations Management
I am trying to come up with some idea of what the real cost is, not just the cost that corporations cite when they want
to look like they are paying the price already for their "sins" but not enough that stockholders take notice...
Thanks for any/ all help and or flames

Funny how accurate your statement is about those who "don't want to take a detailed look at the issues." Those are the
ones making all the noise.
I would like to draw your attention to the Featured Comment at the bottom of the article. It is spot on and a critical
counterpoint.
The entire article is full of leading indicators and trailing indicators, but arguing them as if their meaning were
reversed. The most interesting part about all this is looking at them with an eye to predictive analysis. The charts
show that we are not in uncharted territory, and that corporate profits in a down season is a leading indicator in a
sharp reduction in unemployment (that is, job creation) and another prolonged boom cycle. This will eventually be
interrupted by a sharp, short recession, like the one now. The charts used in this article do tell a story, and its not
the one the whole 99%/1% argument crowd is about.

For me, as a conservative, less regulation an more personal responsibility is better. I will say something probably a bit unusual, especially these days, reasonable men may differ on this view. A very credible argument for regulation can be made, I just keep coming back the reality that virtually every regulated medium of communication becomes a point of control. To shamelessly steal and warp a phrase, "The power to regulate is the power to destroy." I would prefer to be responsible for my own privacy and pit my skills against the Feds at keeping it that way rather than "trust" them not to abuse their access to my "protected" email. I work in the phone business and we have CALEA requirements which supposedly allows law enforcement to carry out their sanctioned wire taps anonymously to protect suspects' right to privacy. I may be wrong, but it seems pretty abusable (if that's a word) to me. I do NOT want that on the Internet.Right and the way to stop that is to require a warrant and a paper trail, if someone serves a warrant at your home you get a copy of the warrant and you can ensure they only get exactly what the warrant states and *nothing more* these warantless email seizures have no such limits or accountability.they can literally come in and take copies of all your emails and you will never know about it, and they can do it for practically any reason, if you encrypt your email they will just demand they keys/passwords with a court order and you can't really fight it without spending time in jail, the US Gov simply doesn't have enough accountability or transparency, that's why we *need* more legal protections, if cops kick down your door without a warrant then anything they find rightfully cant be used as evidence, the same thing should apply to electronic communications.In the US, we have the legal protections (on paper). The laws are not enforced; the checks are balances are lacking; and there is no accountatbility for public officials. There's not a lot we can do when a public official disregards the law, and subsequently goes unpunished. The ACLU and EFF do a great job, but until public officials spend time imprisoned for their actions, nothing will change. Jeff
That is a good point Jeff, all the more reason to push for change and reform.
