"If You See Something, Say Something" ⇒

That’s New York’s narc on your neighbour slogan. As Schneier points out, “People don’t need to be reminded to call the police; the slogan is nothing more than an invitation to report people who are different.”

This is a post from my link log: If you click the title of this post you will be taken the web page I am discussing.

  1. I’m glad that Schneier is continuing to push the point that this “amateur security” campaign doesn’t work because people have different and often uninformed ideas of what constitutes “something.”

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
