cyber hard

Posted on March 26, 2022 | Leave a comment

Lampooning the POTUS cyber-hardening statement a bit, I am seeing this:

— more sites than ever rejecting a VPN connection.

— sites requiring answers to all of the security questions at once, rather than just showing a random one

— pick-the-motorbus CAPTCHAS are even fuzzier than ever before, and you’re doing three screens of them regardless of your success

local tv news

Posted on March 24, 2022 | Leave a comment

In a waiting room with a TV playing local “news.” It could be worse.

— anchors talking in bubbly baby-like voices. Very enthusiastic.

– reports on police requesting more funding because of increase in crime (a few shootings).

— interest / praise pieces on Madeleine Albright and Oprah Winfrey. Albright has died, Oprah has not.
