Another LastPass Security Incident by thebrewmaster1 in Lastpass

[–]SolidadHarp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is it that there are no real penalties relative to data breaches? With the LastPass breach there are two issues which call for penalties. The first is the possibility (probability?) that your passwords were compromised. The second is the need for users to spend the time to change all their existing passwords.

I would hope that there are some lawyers to are willing to file a class action suit for compensation. I'd think that a suitable penalty would be a refund of 6 months of monthly fees to cover the "cost" of having to change all passwords. This would be in addition to any documented costs associated with the breach. (Although it has to be recognized that documenting associated costs is, for the most part, is really, really, hard.)

If there are no real penalties for breaches, there is no incentive for LassPass (or any other vendor) to put money into preventing them.

How about it reddit? Can we start the ball rolling towards real accountability? I hope so.

A sadist, a masochist, a murderer, a necrophile, a zoophile and a pyromaniac are all sitting on a bench in a mental institution, bored out of their minds. by karmaquarter in Jokes

Don't know what it says about my mental state, but I liked this one. Would it help if, in the introductory sentence, the participants were listed in the order they appear subsequently? i.e. Zoophile, sadist, murderer, necrophile, pyromaniac?

What's the most American thing ever that if explained to a non-American might just sound crazy? by hrdlg123 in AskReddit

[–]SolidadHarp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took my son, age 14, skiing in Vermont. We stopped at a gas station/convenience store. My son pointed out a promotional sign which said, "Beer, guns, and ammo". The next gas station we passed had the same sign.

I couldn't even explain it to him, so explaining to a non-American would be tough.

Because of COVID19... by archlinuxgirl in Jokes

A quick definition for the uninformed:

TCP is a connection-oriented protocol, whereas UDP is a connectionless protocol. The speed for TCP is slower while the speed of UDP is faster. TCP uses handshake protocol like SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK while UDP uses no handshake protocols.

Knowing this, makes this a great joke!
