Microsoft president to Congress: ‘We accept responsibility’ for cybersecurity failures | CNN BusinessMicrosoft “accepts responsibility for each and every one” of the issues cited in a scathing US government-backed report on the tech giant’s cybersecurity failings, Microsoft President Brad Smith will tell US lawmakers Thursday, according to his prepared testimony
“We acknowledge that we can and must do better, and we apologize and express our deepest regrets to those who have been impacted,” reads Smith’s testimony to the House Homeland Security Committee. He is set to testify before the panel Thursday afternoon in a hearing the committee says will assess the impact of Microsoft’s “cybersecurity shortfalls” on homeland security.
Microsoft has been at the center of two sweeping hacking campaigns in the last year allegedly carried out by Chinese and Russian spies.
A report issued in April by the US Cyber Safety Review Board found that Microsoft committed a “cascade” of “avoidable errors” that allowed Chinese hackers to breach the tech giant’s network and later the email accounts of senior US officials last year, including the secretary of commerce. The board is comprised of government and private cybersecurity experts led by the Department of Homeland Security.
]Smith says Microsoft has for months been overhauling its cybersecurity practices, in part by implementing recommendations from the US government-backed board.

Life isn't good for Elon or Peter?
You know, I actually believe that -- but not because of big bad government.
They're neo-reactionary monarchists. Never thought I'd deal with these types in MY lifetime, but it just goes to show how close we always are to losing democratic tools for governance.
People have a natural tendency to follow the leader. Our closest evolutionary cousins are big fans of it, and we've barely separated ourselves from them. Education, communication and opportunity (for the masses) are the only things that ever keep strongmen and their entourage from taking control.
anyone who has ever ordered online has probably been screwed by dynamic pricing

Google illegally maintains monopoly over internet search, judge rules | AP NewsThe case depicted Google as a technological bully that methodically has thwarted compe ion to protect a search engine that has become the centerpiece of a digital advertising machine that generated nearly $240 billion in revenue last year. Justice Department lawyers argued that Google’s monopoly enabled it to charge advertisers artificially high prices while also enjoying the luxury of not having to invest more time and money into improving the quality of its search engine — a lax approach that hurt consumers.
