Data Security Debate on News.com

by on October 24, 2005

This week, I’m debating some folks on data security regulation at CNET News. com. Could be interesting and informative.

So far, the debate has transmogrified, at the hand of News.com’s editors, from data security regulation into “IDENTITY CRISIS” and my first post was provocatively (mis-)named “Why should people trust the industry?” – a question that I think is off-point and needlessly loaded. An inauspicious start but, still, check it out.

Highlight: California State Senator Joe Simitian calls regulating a “duty.”
