Lolcats take on Laws, Sausage, Cyberwhatzits, and PCI

Posted April 23rd, 2009 by rybolov

I just love how the security twit community this month is turning into a bunch of public policy wonks before my very eyes.  First we have S.773, the Cybersecurity Act of 2009 and then the House hearings on the effectiveness of PCI.

“To retain respect for sausages and laws, one must not watch them in the making.” –Otto von Bismark (ref: Wikipedia)

   Are there any comments out there worth mentioning? From what I have seen, your recent posts are the only analyses with any real “meat” in them.

   Hi Vince

   Sadly, nothing above and beyond the tired press releases from the bill’s sponsor and maybe one from Alan Paller.
