TSA website warning

Permalink 09:08:19 am, Categories: General, Politics  

TSA (and/or Akamai) apparently can't even get one of the easiest things on their Website right...
Going to the TSA website using https results in this security warning message:

TSA website security warning

Besides all the other things they can't get right with real-life security (such as the completely idiotic x-raying of shoes, or their liquids policy), they are apparently also clueless with respect to cyber security.

This was originally reported in the Risks Forum.

Interesting CA license plate

Permalink 10:42:07 pm, Categories: General, Miscellaneous  

Recently, I parked next to a car with a rather interesting California license plate:
The car was apparently converted to use natural gas, and the license plate read SCRWOIL (I snapped a picture with my cellphone):

SCRWOIL CA license plate

I had to laugh, but on reflection, I was actually surprised that the CA DMV let this go through. I thought they would deny vanity plate applications that contain swearwords. In this case, I don't mind much, of course...
