From Cryptogram by Bruce Schneier.
Since 9/11, approximately three things have potentially improved airline
security: reinforcing the cockpit doors, passengers realizing they have
to fight back, and -- possibly -- sky marshals. Everything else -- all
the security measures that affect privacy -- is just security theater
and a waste of effort.
I've read a book by Bruce Schneier (he also has a very good blog) on security. Especially the difference between perceived security and actual security. (i.e. things which make you feel safe vs things which make you safe)
what is this?
This is either a humorous/sarcastic/vitriolic rant about all the things that are obviously wrong in the world, or its a serious manifesto providing some alternative, albeit unusual, suggestions for a better world. I'm not going to say which.
