I hate it when I agree with Schneier

Thankfully, though, some folks who can do something about the morons in power do listen to him. If you’re as frustrated about the new “safety procedures” at airports, take a look at his latest blog entry:

…Banning box cutters since 9/11, or taking off our shoes since Richard Reid, has not made us any safer. And a long-term prohibition against liquid carry-ons won’t make us safer, either. It’s not just that there are ways around the rules, it’s that focusing on tactics is a losing proposition.

Sadly, the whole entry is worth reading.

(why can’t he go back to fluff IT security reporting!)
