@SteveBellovin A friend directed me to look you up. Your work is incredibly impressive, but every time I see your initials as SMB I can't stop myself reading them as Super Mario Brothers.

They've learned. The first one I received was from a stolen email address and said "are you in campus"; the one I received tonight was from a custom, seemingly correct address, and said "are you on campus?"

Yup, that's happening here. One of my colleagues said he had a few lying around which he slipped under the chair's office door. The scammer was not pleased…

In the last few days, I know of at least three targeted 419-like scams at Columbia, with the crooks impersonating the president of the university, at least one dean, and my department chair. The messages start "are you on campus?"
I'm curious if folks at other schools see these.

Browser vendors _are_ working on a standardized WebExtension API. A decent chunk of functionality is shared between Chrome, Firefox, and pre-chromium Edge. developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Moz…

I wouldn't have thought about doing this; I'm sure it's gone by now but that's sorta funny. Now let's all stop celebrating and blaming and figure something out so the same thing doesn't happen in 3 weeks!! twitter.com/BeardAboutIt/s…

Preliminary data shows that gen. 0 @CryptoKitties have significantly outperformed #BTC as a store of value over the past 6 months. I'll be crunching some numbers, more detailed comparison follows. pic.twitter.com/8qdYGArS24

Oh man, almost forgot quoting legendary @sergeybratus: "Designers, vendors, and programmers themselves have trouble describing whether a software or hardware feature is operating as intended or is, in fact, a security flaw."

Or hope that they can in the future, though that was more how things were done 20 years ago.

I personally am uncomfortable with these dossiers existing, because data that exists can be (will be?) misused, but I realize that I'm quite an outlier on privacy.

I've actually had that said to me in person. Such people do exist, though I confess I don't understand it.

There's another deep problem here. In today's world, the marginal value of the data about any single individual is very, very low. The value is in the aggregation—but simply dividing that value into N pieces doesn't seem right, either.

If Trump really wanted to see Hillary locked up, he should’ve just hired her to work on his campaign.
