My dad's chemistry lab had an electromechanical adding machine that was very loud. He showed us how it worked. It could do long division, with gears flying and the carriage moving automatically back and forth - amazing.

One day we came in and decided to see what would happen if we were to divide by zero. The machine loudly churned away, as we got more and more terrified. It wouldn't stop.

Finally, dad came in yelling at us terrified kids, and pulled the plug to make it stop.

Do you know any example of something like an "Internet infrastructure co-op"?

I'm thinking, as in, "We self-host a set of agreed-upon cloud services for our members, and assess ourselves our share of the costs, using a governance structure that makes our membership the root of cooperative accountability."

This one is interesting. A billion records of sensitive Know-Your-Customer data.

The country with the most exposed records was the United States, having over 203 million records leaked. The US was followed by Mexico (124M) and the Philippines (72M). Behind the first three, we see a trio of European nations: Germany (61M), Italy (53M), and France (53M).

The entire adult (18+) population of the U.S. is about 269M, so the leak of 203M records (75%) from a single KYC company is admittedly spectacular.

Governments mandate that financial institutions (and others) collect and review this data, so there are companies that get contracted to do it for them using poorly managed databases at worldwide scale.

I felt like I shouldn't have another cup of coffee.

So I started to wash out my coffee cup.

Then I got distracted.

Then I poured myself a cup of coffee.

So that's how I'm drinking soapy coffee.

Good morning.

Given current tech, cryptographic software can provide, in more or less narrow contexts, strong guarantees on specific results.

When it is incorporated into the maelstrom of a large internet service ecosystem, all the important ways it will fail to deliver accuracy, accessibility, safety, privacy, and security will have nothing to do with the cryptography.

The moment we give up the key assumption that the participants in that ecosystem are 100% competent and 0% malicious, all those guarantees evaporate.
