[Air-l] Digg user 'riot' going on now

[Dr.Cameron Adams]

Hi,

Of course the question of posting hacks publicly brings up another 
issue:  If the hacks are public, everyone knows about them and the 
"security" provider improves security.  If the hacks are kept secret, 
on the other hand, only the hackers know them, the providers never 
improve security and increased theft can then ensue.  Which is worse?

Bruce Schnier says this all a ton better than I do, and with some 
authority.  Feel free to look him up and/or check out his cryptogram 
newsletter if you are interested in these issues.

Cheers,

Cameron (an anthropologist, not a security expert)
