Edward Snowden was a featured speaker last month at both TED and SXSW, he teleconferenced in. From his talks, Wired came up with a list of ten things that can be done to improve security and privacy of our information. It's a pretty good list, but not one that the individual can do much with, it's pretty much entirely dependent on being implemented by ISPs and web sites and engineers. Still, it's not a bad start.

Yikes on that server admin.

It's odd to say that money would keep them from doing this, because it seems like the possible liability for stolen data and/or irate customers on a breach would be greater than the actual cost of the upgrades needed to insure against that. But, since companies can be short-sighted abot potential future costs, I suppose it's not as odd as I thought.
