Disneyland bans pictures in its parking lots – Boing Boing
No taking photos in the s33kr1t Disneyland parking lots! I mean, sure, they’re full of CCTVs taking pictures of you, but just because you’re paying $80 for the day, plus $10 to park, why should you feel free to steal the Mouse’s precious, precious parking-lot photons? After all, those photos could be used by Al Quaeda to coordinate a strike on the Mouse House!

And strike two. ๐Ÿ‘ฟ Another security guard on another continent yet has the same misguided belief that he works for the SS and what he says is law. Piss on him and Mickey! ๐Ÿ‘ฟ

U.S. Health Agency Forbids Sensitive Data On Apple MacBooks — Security — InformationWeek
In the wake of a widely publicized security breach that left thousands of patient records exposed, the federal government’s National Institutes of Health is forbidding all employees who use Apple’s MacBook laptops from handling sensitive data as of Friday, InformationWeek has learned.

Employees at the health agency who store medical records and other personal information on laptops must use systems that run either on Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT)’s Windows operating system or Linux, according to an agency memo.

This is beyond words. Go, read the article, especially the comments. Typical top management CYA BS.
