The UK and the US have gone crazy!

OK, so. Cyber security. Definitely something we all need to be concerned about but it seems like the United Kingdom and the United States have gone to the dark side. This week, the British Prime Minister, David Cameron and our president met to discuss the issues surrounding cyber security in our countries. The prime minister wants to ban certain forms of encryption which would ban certain apps or forms of communications in the UK. Hmmmm, sounds fishy to me. Our own White House has proposed several expansions of penalties to the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act which would include the ability to be prosecuted and sent to jail for sharing passwords to video streaming websites, like HBO-go. How insane does that sound to you? We need to definitely do something about the state of cyber security, with the hacking we have going on of celeb's picture leaks, twitter hacking, etc but is this approach the best approach? The laws they're trying to pass wouldn't even touch a cyber terrorist, because they wouldn't be stupid enough to get caught. The people they're putting at risk for prosecution are the people they should be getting advisement from when researching the Sony hack or things like that. I don't believe this will solve any problems but both governments seem to be equally ignorant about the state of cyber security. Read the full article here or watch the video up top and let me know what you think.
