Building wearables for kitties?

[Tad Carlucci]

Back when I was a "hacker" it was (a) legal, (b) encouraged, and © nothing like what we now call "hackers" (I'm not sure whether to blame the news media or Hollywood for that). Nowadays the kind of "hacker" I was is now called a "network security consultant" and we (well, not me, any more: I'm retired) get paid a lot to constantly think about ways to improve security. Often, that means we're thinking about ways to bypass existing security measures.

So, yeah, I guess I have a hacker's mind. Virtually everything I look at, I think, "What's the threat matrix, where are the attack vectors, how easy are they, and how well known?"
