  1. Seems too late on Symantec's Genesis to Usher in a New Age of Trust? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    With anti-virus, anti-spam, anti-spyware, intrusion prevention, firewall, PC optimization and maintenance elements all bundled togetherm this is gonna be one hell of a system performance issue.
    "Both Genesis and the next versions of Norton's traditional security products will be designed to work on Vista, Microsoft's forthcoming operating system, due later this year, as well as Windows XP."

    Well, seems this does not do linux. Only Windows XP. But looks like Microsoft already has OneCare which does the same stuff. So I guess this is too late a genesis for symantec.

  2. Probably a matter of concern on Police Restrict Public Photography · · Score: 3, Informative

    "... after he photographed gas storage cylinders at the city's Shell oil refinery" This seems to be sensitive and could have caused trouble if such pictures land up in the hands of terrorists. I have seen terrorists blowing up gas pipelines at oil-refineries in my country, and believe me, it is really an issue. But the fact that were told not to photograph industrial installations seems too stretched. The police don't have the right to ban public photography anyway.
