It's not my intention to be a jerk-face about this stuff. I just googled the guy's name and wpa2 vulnerability to find those other info sources. I personally find security & privacy very interesting and extremely relevant in today's world. I don't always have the time, energy nor technical aptitude to make sense out of it all. However, I do believe we are better served by making a reasonable effort to share the best info we can and learn what we can so we can have informed and even enjoyable conversations that help us all become better digital denizens. I often listen to the Security Now Podcast and Last Spring I attended a Priv & Sec presentation. It wasn't one of these that are currently on Calagator listed below. What I quickly realized is that as the amount of sw and the level of connectivity between sw & devices increases so will the attack surface to the point of exhaustion, frustration and potentially insanity. I take reasonable and responsible priv & sec measures. However, at the end of the day I think more about what are the repercussions and recourse when the proverbial matter hits the fan. Good luck!
