Another Day, Another Massive Security
Breach ... Yawn
Another Day, Another Massive Security
Breach ... Yawn
04/14/2005 04:59 PMNews of yet another whopping security breach hit the wires today. This
time, thieves may have swiped credit card info of more than
180,000 HSBC Bank MasterCard shoppers. We're hearing of
these large-scale breakdowns all too frequently, with
hundr
eds of thousands of people affected each time. They've probably
been happening for years and are only coming to light now, thanks to
California's disclosure law. Alarming as this is, even more alarming
is that these incidents barely register in the public consciousness.
Instead, people are
misdirecting their
fears to Google map lookups and the like, as Scott Granneman
points out in his column (don't worry, you've got the right column if
you're reading a long intro about a WWI poet). The more we hear about
a trend of scary facts, the more inured we get to them. Granneman
calls for national legislation that would require companies to quickly
disclose data theft to their customers. A good idea, but taking his
original point a step further, people might also get desensitized to
notices of stolen data. Save for those unfortunate few who have
experienced the painful process of dealing with identity theft, it
would take extraordinary circumstances for most people to care. Maybe
another dozen or so cases of 200,000-plus customers getting their
personal data ripped off by professional crooks will do the trick.

Our family and a couple of other families are going camping next
weekend, first of
many planned this year. The weird thing about camping is that
time flies although
there is nothing to do. I know other people do a lot when
they go camping, like
climbing hills. I don't. My camping goes like this:
drive, unload, setup
for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
sit, eat, sit, eat, fire, drink, sleep
tear down, load, drive
