Bruce Schneier Frasi e Citazioni

“Come esperto di crittografia e sicurezza informatica, non ho mai capito l'agitazione attuale riguardo il movimento dei software open source. Nel mondo della crittografia consideriamo l'open source necessario per una buona sicurezza; […] La sicurezza pubblica è sempre più sicura della sicurezza proprietario. Ciò è vero per algoritmi di crittografia, protocolli di sicurezza e codici sorgente di sicurezza. Per noi, l'open source non è solo un modello di business; è un'intelligente pratica ingegneristica.”

“I mean, the computer industry promises nothing. Did you ever read a shrink-wrapped license agreement? You should read one. It basically says, if this product deliberately kills your children, and we knew it would, and we decided not to tell you because it might harm sales, we're not liable. I mean, it says stuff like that. They're absurd documents. You have no rights.”

Cryptography

“Every time I write about the impossibility of effectively protecting digital files on a general-purpose computer, I get responses from people decrying the death of copyright. "How will authors and artists get paid for their work?" they ask me. Truth be told, I don't know. I feel rather like the physicist who just explained relativity to a group of would-be interstellar travelers, only to be asked: "How do you expect us to get to the stars, then?"”

“The very definition of news is something that hardly ever happens. If an incident is in the news, we shouldn't worry about it. It's when something is so common that its no longer news – car crashes, domestic violence – that we should worry.”

Politics and societal issues of the digital age

“The point of terrorism is to cause terror, sometimes to further a political goal and sometimes out of sheer hatred. The people terrorists kill are not the targets; they are collateral damage. And blowing up planes, trains, markets or buses is not the goal; those are just tactics.
The real targets of terrorism are the rest of us: the billions of us who are not killed but are terrorized because of the killing. The real point of terrorism is not the act itself, but our reaction to the act.
And we're doing exactly what the terrorists want.”
