Sir John Sawers; Social Media Privacy and Personal Security

Privacy issues and identity theft in social media are a growing concern. Most people who post their personal information about themselves do not recognize the potential consequences of their actions, or maybe they simply don’t care if their entire life is an open book. Ask yourself, should the director of the United States Central Intelligence Age...

Isn't there anything untainted anymore?

There are various guilt trips that people across the world have - vegans on animal cruelty, 'greenies' ,.... and now looks like even the hi tech items we use on a day to day basis are tainted with blood. Well, at least that's what this news item on Time says - http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1912594,00.html It looks like the stuff th...

Identity Thieves Gather Data From Social Networks

There’s a lot of excessive trust in the Facebook world. People have entirely dropped their sense of cynicism when logged on. They have no reason to distrust. People who are your “Friends” are generally those who you “know, like and trust”. In this world, your guard is as down as it will ever be. You are in the safety of your own home or office han...

Lost - As Defined by an 11 Year Old

Show of hands, how many of us remember the good old days? You remember those days, when "lost" meant something like: "I came home and set my car keys down and then moved some stuff around - when I got up in the morning, I couldn't find my keys. They were lost." or "My wife and I took a trip with the kids to Washington, D.C....

Fox Anchors email Hacked, Leads to Identity Theft

I recently appeared on Fox and Friends to discuss email hacking. Dave Briggs, a FOX & Friends Weekend co-host, lost access to his Hotmail email account when hackers were able to guess either his password or his qualifying question.

Pile it high and sell it very low

Believe me, I went looking for a worthy blog post for today--maybe something on the 'LSE failing to grab the OTC derivatives bull by the exchange-traded horns'--but of course, this little number caught my eye. Bloomberg posted that Lehman Brothers is setting up a retail shop in order to sell all its surplus logo'ed merchandise as part of its effor...

The Impending Black Hole In OZ unReal Estate

I live in a land of delusion. I like to think that I have a small grasp on economics. I don't claim to be an economist and when writing about it I often do so as the 'noneconomist'. I am concerned at the mass delusion gripping Australians. The price of real estate is unreal. We are seriously in danger of undermining the old rule of 'safe as houses'...
