I know very little about it outside of one of the trials to be honest. From what I heard about it from that one though, it doesn't sound like the most confidence inspiring system in the world.

Now that the tails equipment works with it, it's actually a very good system, notwithstanding the general shiteness of a certain civvy company. Certainly better for FET than taking a couple of DUROs with you, especially when combined with Skylark!

Not really. Making sure that systems are hardened, patched and updated is vital but again it's only a tiny part of the toolset.

We are working against a backdrop of this..... BBC News - Flame: Massive cyber-attack discovered

Simply coming out with the mantra "there's no friends in crypto" isn't really going to allow us to beat the Chinese.....
