You folks realize that even average programmers know that when the word "compliance" gets used to justify something, that something is invariably illogical rubbish? Having to "comply" with "DHS directives" will cement the subtext of "compliance is crap". I'm sure I don't have to prompt you to imagine how unearthly those "directives" will be, or how uncomfortable the "imposition" will end up. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
