Demolocke's Caveat

Caveat: Please make note that this article/post is my personal analysis of the subject and the information used was chosen or picked by me. It is not an analysis piece because it lacks complete and comprehensive research, it was not adequately and completely investigated and it is not balanced, i.e., it is my personal view without the views of others including subject experts, etc. Look at this as “Infotainment rather then expert research.” This is an opinion/editorial article/post meant to persuade the reader to think, decide and accept or reject my premise. It is an attempt to cause change or reinforce attitudes, beliefs and values as they apply in life. It is merely a commentary on the subject in the particular article presented.


This article is mine and mine alone. I the author of this article assure you, the reader, that any of the opinions expressed here are my own and are a result of the way in which my meandering mind interprets a particular situation and/or concept. The views expressed here are solely those of the author in his private capacity and do not in any way represent the views of other professionals or authors of source materials. It should be quite obvious that the sources I used herein have not approved, endorsed, embraced, friended, liked, tweeted or authorized this article. (Everything I think and write is true, within the limits of my knowledge and understanding. Oh, and just because I wrote it and just because it sounds reasonable and just because it makes sense, does not mean it is true.)


Finally, it is incumbent that the reader take any information they feel is relevant and useful and perform an in-depth analysis of it to work out its value to the reader. It is also stressed that the reader also present the information to qualified professionals/experts so that his or her expertise and experience can also analyze the information to validate and then synthesize said information into their ideas, theories or facts/information either as is or as synthesized into something new and creative.


Oh, it is pronounced "Dem-Locke."

Billions Sold, Sound Familiar

Demolocke’s Agenda Article/Post Caveat (Read First Please: Click the Link)

Long ago in a world far, far in the past a fast food place put this on their signs and now you too can put this on your computers and media devices so that you can remind yourself that selling billions of devices that don’t directly effect you, indirectly you betcha, is not a good thing, it is dangerous, crafty and like identity theft a real bear to beat and get corrected. The onus is on YOU!

“Gartner Inc. forecasts that 6.4 billion connected things will be in use worldwide in 2016, up 30 percent from 2015, and will reach 20.8 billion by 2020. In 2016, 5.5 million new things will get connected each day, Gartner estimates. If only a fraction of these new IoT devices are shipped with sloppy security defaults — such as hard-coded accounts and passwords — the IoT problem is going to get a lot worse in the coming years.” - Krebs on Security

Just reading about the numbers is causing my blood pressure to rise and my vertigo to spin while my body does the hoochie-coochie with the chemicals my brain is releasing under the old flight-fight survival triggers. This shit is really scary. Don’t even get me started on the Banks iPhone/Smartphone ATM automation, Arghhhhhhhhhh! READ ABOUT ATM AUTOMATED TELLER FRAUD HERE!
