Another great snippet:

"When You Put The Military In Charge of 'Cyberdefense', Don't Be Surprised
They Want To Go On The Offensive"
http://techdirt.com/articles/20090430/1228154706.shtml

Especially:

"If these are the sorts of strategies that the military sees for

cyberspace" -- perhaps we'd be better off with somebody else heading up the
efforts."
