3. Thanks.

:kick:

[Clio the Leo]

4. I realize this will be discussing LARGE SCALE security...

... on the national level, but I have this odd feeling that the President will admonish us all to stop downloading porn. :)

(because that's an easy way to get a virus)

[Clio the Leo]

5. 2 min warning. NT

[Clio the Leo]

6. Botnet? What's a Botnet?

This is why I adore Barack Obama, he's gives me an ever-expanding vocabulary. :)

[Raine1967]

7. I like that he said Phishing...

I giggled when he said Botnet... :P

[DrToast]

8. He's all geeked out today

He also said malware.

[Raine1967]

10. Geeked indeed---

I love it.

He wants to keep cyberspace open and free as part of new world of greater security & prosperity. That is very good stuff. I love that he talked about a new electric Grid, and more broadband.


I like geeks.

[Clio the Leo]

12. Yep, broadband for rural communities.....

.... he's def. the FDR of Cyberspace.

[Clio the Leo]

11. Yep, we've gone from "the Decider" and "nukeyalur" to...

.... "Botnets" "thumb drives" and .... lol whatever that virus that he spoke of that I've already forgotten...... all in just a few months.

And it's clear he wasn't just reading words on a page. He KNEW what he was speaking of.

I'm sorry for those who are still waiting on their pony, because I think today made my 6th or 7th. :)

"it's a new day .... da da da...."

[Raine1967]

9. This is pretty amazing stuff.

Did the previous administration even know what 'Web.05' was?

He remains committed to Net Neutrality! WOOHOO!

[Clio the Leo]

13. The last administration couldn't even find their own bum holes...

.... so the answer would be "no."

[Seldona]

14. 'He remains committed to Net Neutrality!'

That is good news indeed. Things weren't looking good there for awhile.

[SpartanDem]

15. This is a good move

it's time that there be a person responsible for cyber security


And could the media stop with stupid czar crap? I don't remember Obama mentioning any czar

[FrenchieCat]

16. The media is the one proclaiming the Czar....cause you know, they get to decide!

That's what makes them a big part of the problem, if not the biggest!
