    If anything, I wish they made passports into the size of a regular ID so it fits in a wallet/cardholder and you don’t have to worry about it getting folded or wet. Make visas and stamps digital so a chip scan of the card provides all the info, instead of eye/face recognition/tracking.

    I appreciate your optimism, but I’m more on the cautious side of things. At the end of the day they are still a corporation that needs to profit as much as they can, so we have yet to see what happens when they become the dominant player in the space. Hell, it was just reported that they are now planning a subscription model, waaay earlier than Elon did with twitter.







  • you generally don’t magically get things like API keys and database credentials from buckets

    Oh you underestimate how clueless some people can be. One of the highest priority checks of cloud SOCs is to just routinely scan for public buckets, because people expose (accidentally or intentionally) stuff on their test or sandbox accounts a lot, and it’s not surprising to find keys and secrets in there. Obviously a simple SCP policy of denying API calls to make a bucket public will easily solve this problem, but then again, even big companies screw that up too.
