I had a buddy who converted his $500 souped up Dell into a Hackintosh. He had powerful hardware powered by OS X. He gave it up after couple months because he wanted the cool factor of actually hacking away on a Macbook instead of a Dell.
Sure, the saved login credentials is a problem, but I think there is a side problem as well. A "security expert" plugged in a VPN concentrator he bought of "Ebay" into his corporate network without cleaning it up in the first place. That is a problem too
Authentication should not be performed at the DNS level. Spoofing needs to be prevented at the application layer instead.
Is DNSSEC help me verify and validate my IM buddies? What about P2P or for that matter any other distributed systems or for large scale online apps such as YouTube. Are we trying to force a square peg into a round hole here?
Sure DNSSEc would upgrade the whole infrastructure space but like anything else, implementation is the key.
Why try to reinvent the wheel when Google does on good job in this space. Trusted sources bubble up towards the top. At the same time, do I trust a Wiki article that the first URL to a query or do I trust a.gov site. Some minor issues but Google has a pretty solid trust mechanism in place for web sites and works for most part.
Again what is trustworthy for you may not be for me. So Google along with custom tagging to bubble up sites I prefer more to the top should help
