NewsBlur is useful, destroying it serves no purpose at all. Which means that a ton of innovation will simply never happen because for a large number of fledgling companies the decision between working on their business or working on the security of their business is a moot one, if they don't do the one the other will kill it and doing both at the same time is too costly. But what we get instead is an internet that can only be kept running by large companies because they supposedly have the budget and the knowledge to do this at a scale that makes security affordable. It would be great if we could get a secure internet.
Obviously docker and the person that put this together share some of the blame but: the original internet would have never gotten off the ground if it wasn't for people cooperating with each other rather than to try to tear things down all the time.Īnd with the chances of your average script kiddie/hacker/idiot getting caught being lower than a typical bike thief in Amsterdam this likely will not stop. It's a pity that the chances of nailing the perps is so low.
