    Obligatory Simpsons quote:

    Australian guy: Ah, I can see you've played knifey-spoony before!"

  3. most amusing + more links on Citibank Tries to Hush ATM Crypto Vulnerability · · Score: 2, Informative

    First off it might be appropriate to link to Mike Bond's site, where he's tracking some of the news articles about his research, and it has unicycle jousting photos. Also of interest may be Ross Anderson's site.

    When Ross mentioned the case and the gagging order in a software engineering lecture he was giving on thursday I was amused... but i didn't expect all this. What i think is most amusing is the fact that if citibank hadn't taken the pretty rash decision to pursue litigation rather than investigate it internal and fix the vuln quietly then they wouldn't look anywhere near as foolish!

    I think that's probably enough for my first post, but i'd just like to say that i expect the software engineering lecture with Ross Anderson tomorrow will be most amusing.

    Ross: 1
    Citibank: 0
