The Security Community Expressed As Too Many Venn Diagrams
summary
Argument that the security community literally births computing technology, tracing cryptography -> mechanical and electronic code machines -> early computers, then ARPANET -> public Internet; concrete incidents: Cuckoo’s Egg intrusion and the Morris Worm show lack of attribution; validators adopt fuzz testing as a primary tool; export controls push Linux globalization; concrete policy claim: bug bounties are a bad idea and pay-for-patch is better; prediction: security stays fractious and UX remains unsolved.
