Weekly "That's Interesting" Wrap-Up 21 Oct 2011


TEDxRotterdam - Mikko Hypponen - safe internet will lead the future

Similar to his other TED talk but worth the 20min. Its good up to "fixing things". Not sure I agree with his "fixes". I do agree with a more unified way to fight/arrest/ cyber criminals, but bottom line its still way too easy to break into stuff and still to easy to conduct Credit Card fraud. We need to adress some of that as well.

Also, I think plenty of people would disagree that anything Mac is "safe" because of market share.
