I realize my view on whether it is ever okay to pay #ransom in a #hackandleak situation is contentious. Great thanks to @amvinfe for asking me to articulate my views. #incidentresponse #mitigation #responsibility #ethics

I bit my tongue as long as I could but there came a point I had to blurt out "we can delegate tasks but not responsibility". 😒

Who has more power, a consultant or a janitor? Surely, the consultant has more power, right? Wrong. The janitor does!

Verantwortung
Freiwillig nehmen – oder doch Macht geben? Kein Plan.
Innerlich bin ich
’n Gnom.
Null Selbstvertrauen – aber doch genug
zum Klauen.
Nur von Toten
soll Mann stehen.
Und am besten
auch noch untergehen. Will ich sterben?
Oder ewig leben?
Jetzt grad nicht.
Wo isst der Wicht?
Was für ein Scheißwort. „Kleine Leute“ –
doch am Steuer.
Für die richtige Idee sterb ich gern.
Wenn wir nur schon
in der Zukunft wär’n.

"If te #defenseindustry is treated as an engine of economic growth, it becomes too easy to fall into a profit-first mindset.. At its core, arms exports mean 🇯🇵becoming involved, even indirectly, in other countries' #conflicts.
To determine whether tt truly contributes to 🇯🇵's security, #government must fulfill its #responsibility to explain decisions to te public on a concrete, case-by-case basis"

OPINION: Japan lifts curbs on weapons exports, but strict safeguards are essential

The Japanese government has decided to abolish the "five categories" that limited arms exports to noncombat purposes such as "rescue" and "transport," lifting the ban on exporting lethal weapons and allowing exports even to countries currently in conflict when there are "special security circumstances."
