Comments on: Yahoo: We need effective cybercrime laws

Policymakers need to define illegal use of technology rather than focus on how an action breaks the law, Yahoo exec says.

Yahoo want to lock up n3td3v?

Hahaha, i've heard it all now. Yahoo security team are sitting in Sunnyvale trying to work out a way to stop n3td3v and can't because of the lame U-S laws.

Yet again....

The industry uses the "CHILD ABUSE" coin to drum up public support to get hackers and cyber terrorists locked up. Great.

This reminds me of the Google case

"We want your search data because of CHILD ABUSE" crap to win over public support. LOL, the public seen through your attempts on that, like they will see through your attempts here also.

Yahoo execs

Are they blogging yet? We know blogging is the single most easy way for a corporate user to get hacked. Set up a sinner at their blog login, capture the user/pass, ip. The IP relates to home PCs, corporate PCs, wireless devices, and then are hacked. Great little trend the blog thing is.

Yahoo 360

We warned Yahoo security team over a year ago of the danger of laucning Yahoo 360. The service that had all its employees registered on it during beta testing, and then went public with all those employee names registered on it. Within hours of the service going live, internetional hackers had built up the biggest employee database ever, and then hacked all of them. However I warned Yahoo security team before hand not to launch the service to the public until they had deleted all the employee accounts, but they didn't listen to me, so now Yahoo live in a world where they encourge employees to blog around the world and get hacked.

Yahoo pressing legislatures? Joke.

Why is Yahoo pressing this all of a sudden? This article busts out saying Yahoo is trying to get international laws set up and is trying to work with Interpol but doesn't give one good reason why. As n3td3v or whatever his name said in one of his million pointless comments, theyre playing the "Child Abuse" card. Yet did the article mention a single reason why Yahoo is getting so worked up? There isnt any suprising statistics mentioned in the article.
