I've been saying for a long time now that the Bad Guys are better funded than the Good Guys when it comes to computer security. It seems that I need to expand my thinking, to become more in tune with the Meta.
The big security reveal from the first day of the Black Hat security conference is that the same guys who are funding hacking (Organized Crime, mostly) are funding political candidates. I guess that I shouldn't be surprised - you can't look at the Kennedys without looking at Joe Sr's rum running during Prohibition - but the idea that there are particular statutes and regulations that the Black Hats want to see enacted is not a happy thought.
