I’m glad their chatbot is at least smarter than themselves.

The US desperately needs to rework its citizen ID system. I’m tired of having to spend hours freezing and unfreezing multiple credit accounts after so many of these breaches. It’s not too hard to have a secure system since companies don’t care to protect confidential information.

Also, it was disclosed to AT&T in 2021 and they’re just now admitting to it? Then only offering 1 year of identity theft protection?? If a SSN breach occurs, they should be made to pay for lifetime identity theft protection. Then if they don’t want to pay that, they can use the good ol’ lobbying system to advocate for a more secure citizen ID.

I really liked the atmosphere and world of Vesper, but the story was contrived and bland I felt.

I’ve seen District 9 mentioned as kind of biopunk, so maybe if that counts, I’d say that’s my favorite.
