There have been like five or six separate incidents where financial firms were serving other people's data to them via some broken cache.

So NYT wrote this

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/25/us/nsa-hacking-tool-baltimore.html

Nothing really new in here, except the surprisingly angry tone about how the NSA is completely unaccountable to anyone and out of control.

Is there a term for people tuning out (deliberately or subconsciously) common disclaimers or security warnings?

equifax is doing way better than they were pre breach. Zero impact to the business from losing literally the most sensitive data of all foo all Americans. even the one dude who took the hit for blatantly insider trading and texting his buddies about how they were breached got a plea deal and is probably just gonna get probation

why should anyone care about security warnings? any incident of any size has zero impact on your business anymore, you're better off burning stacks of cash to keep warm than spending it on infosec

"rational willful security ignorance" should be the term

it turns out the huawei hackers were actually just part of the dumb tariff war and suddenly not a threat because we made a deal

@onlyyoontv posted:

By my tally, so far #China gets:
-no new tariffs
-access to US tech for Huawei
-better visa treatments for Chinese students
-truce on #tradewar (resumption of talks)
US gets: -bigger purchases for farmers


Now that we've established holding people/companies hostage as "cyber criminals" to get trade deals done expect this to happen over and over and over again for a few decades

if anyone actually gave a poo poo about effective healthcare and good outcomes from hospitals the goddamn computers working well would be like #27 on the list of things to fix
