“Oh, great. Just great. The Americans are electing a chief of cybersecurity for the office of “Homeland Security”. You know what that means: someone who might actually know what the little padlock icon in his browser means.

Seriously, though, this is bad news for the entire world. Since almost all of us are running American-made software in numbers that far outweigh the foreign stuff, any changes made to laws “for the benefit of the American people” (read: for the benefit of spying on EVERYONE) will directly affect everyone. Some old, upper class white man will be controlling how we use computers and the Internet. Be concerned.”
