Credit Cards, ECheques, Java, SSL, Schadenfreude
Because of the overlap between www-security and www-buyinfo
I don't think I posted the ECheques announcement to this list
(or my credit card details).
For those interested - we launched ECheques with the first payment
last week. (Weds). See http://mkn.co.uk/bank for information.
Secondly people should be a little less hyper about credit cards. If
your credit card number is available to the public then you should
be more rigorous about checking the statement.
I think the reason that people are so interested in the crackability
of Netscape's implementation of SSL is that Netscape floated for
lots and lots of money and an element of
Schadenfreude (I think that's the spelling).
None the less I don't like the idea of loading a web page with the
ability to trash my disk. I would like to see at a low level the
implementation of Java before loading applets.
