From the Register:
A US defence department advisory board has warned of the danger that American war robots scheduled for delivery within a decade might be riddled with malicious code. The kill machines will use software largely written overseas, and it is feared that sinister forces might meddle with it in production, thus gaining control of the future mechanoid military.

Seriously. And I'm not just mindlessly following the advice of Mojo Nixon. I'm saying it based on the fact:
- Pentagon report warns Canadian coins bugged
- And nobody would buy such a half-hearted, anonymous denial: “We have no evidence to indicate anything connected with these coins poses a risk or danger.” Yeah, to us tracking you.
- An ongoing research project into the detection of illicit drug use has shown that of a sample of bank notes in current circulation in the greater Dublin area - €5, €10, €20 and €50 denominations - 100% of them showed contamination with cocaine. Though perhaps on this one they should double check the researchers hands. And noses.

It will probably be a little quiet around here for the rest of the week as it's the Thanksgiving holiday here in the US. I'll still be checking my e-mail via the blackberry, of course :). Thanks to all who have made this a great year for WiKID.

With apologies to Friends of Distinction: An article I wrote for Howtoforge has made the front page of Digg. So can you digg it. baby?
texas-considers-requiring-pci-compliance
Posted by: admin 15 years, 3 months ago
In an interesting twist in the continuing PCI story, the Texas legislature may mandate PCI compliance:
According to the language of the bill, "A business that, in the regular course of business, collects, maintains, or stores sensitive personal information in connection with an access device must comply with payment card industry data security standards." The bill would allow a financial institution in the state to request a breached entity to provide certification of its compliance with PCI specified controls. HB 3222 would require the certification to be issued by a PCI-approved auditor no earlier than 90-days before the breach.It sounds like retailers would have to be audited every 90 days! Is this bill the work of the financial institutions or the auditors?
