Hi Doug:

I published links to the following a couple of weeks ago on the DBA-Tech
list. If anyone missed this, here is an interesting set of links on security
and privacy or lack of it.

Is privacy dead.

I received this post a few days ago and thought I would repost it for anyone
interested. It basically demonstrates just how easy you can be hacked and
there is really no way to stop it other than pull the plug and do not use
the web.

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEmO7wQKCMw

Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ctRfWnisSk&feature=related

Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJtmZZGcR54&feature=related

The talk is given in three parts and takes up a bit of time to view in its
entirety but I am sure all you programmers out there will find it more than
interesting.
