This is why we need more systems engineers and less engineers working on "systems".

For those that don't get the difference this is a systems engineer and this is an engineer working on "systems".

One does something productive, the other does something that is only useful for the ones that need robot guards.

This is why I don't use GSM and it's derivitives. I use DID->SIP trunking. It's slightly better than a landline in terms of mobility and that's good enough for me. A buck fifty a month can't be beat. Still manage to have a social life so friends don't care. You just have to make more solidified plans which frankly is better.

So yes, got interested on such topics like encryption because of the writings of Schneier (in addition to shit like Cryptonomicon, GitS, etc). Haven't been paying attention to his writing since ditching reddit, he is one of the few old heroes from the bastion of free speech days. And I just saw this, archived. At least some of the readers/comments are calling the essay out.
