Has anyone coined the term “cyber decay” to describe the rapid decline of a popular online service?

Security professionals have been advising users to use password managers for years knowing a breach like the LastPass breach would happen eventually. Furthermore, we were right to do so. The risk of someone cracking a copied password vault and getting an entire list of complex passwords is still better than reusing the same single password for every account even if that one password is complex.

This isn’t an excuse for bad practices at LastPass though. They deserve shame for rolling their own crypto at minimum considering this is the #1 rule for anyone managing encryption. They should explain why this decision was made.

Honest question: are infosec conferences happening in states outlawing "drag" performances for under 18 attendees going to need to get adult entertainment licenses of some kind if they have transgender speakers on stage?

@feld This is not conventional wisdom to a lot of the conservatives passing these laws. Their belief is that trans men are not men, and trans women are not women. If that's where they're coming from, then any trans woman wearing women's clothes is a "man in drag" according to them.

@wolf480pl @lorenzofb Are you suggesting that trans people haven't tried that?
