I have no idea what a significant portion of this headline actually means. Which might be part of the problem, when it comes to illicit compromising of technological security (which, I gather, is the issue at hand). When we end users have no idea what the hell is going on, that might contribute to the problem.
(Before I get accused of Being Disappointed in Boing Boing, though, I thought that Cory did a great job of filling me in with the article itself)
