IMO the UK could save a lot of time and money by just outlawing accidental death of all kinds ;-)
That's actually what much of State Nannyism is about. (Yes, we do have a Nanny state. It's just seeing whether an obvious risk is large enough to justify legislation doesn't strike me as being altogether unreasonable.) My main problem with nannyism isn't that I think people should be allowed to do what they like to themselves and other people. It's the fact that so many measures are not seriously intended to eradicate a problem, but to evade any responsibility for it. Oh, look, we're back to discussing security. :) -- David Harley CISSP, Small Blue-Green World Security Author/Editor/Consultant/Researcher AVIEN Guide to Malware: http://www.smallblue-greenworld.co.uk/pages/avienguide.html Security Bibliography: http://www.smallblue-greenworld.co.uk/pages/bibliography.html _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
