Cyberterrorism [was: Re: NSA wiretap, Friday night]

responder <no@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote lots of good observations about
unconstitional and illegal NSA wiretaping which is one form of
computer insecurity.

One thing that the US administration has been very lax in is
improving cyber security. With so much relying on a working
Internet, we need to keep it working. What can we do, as
people who presumably care about this stuff enough to read this
newsgroup? I don't think we have the luxury of waiting for
someone else to do it for us. Maybe they don't even want to do
it for us? If the Internet were more hardened against cyber
terrorists, maybe the same hardening would lessen their ability
to do their own spying?

So, what can WE do?
