If there's one thing I've learned in the past few years as editor of SecurityFocus, it's that there is absolutely no saving grace in the security world. Everyone is a target, everyone is vulnerable and exposed, and no one is safe from, well... anything.

Last time I checked, there were no universal morality, unfortunately. Even no universal criminal codex, either. Better don't mention Neo-Nazis - UN qualifies Zionism as a form of Racism, Muslim faith is a subject to police profiling, Soviets outlawed Christianity. Better don't mention pedophiles - what about legal age of marriage in most African countries (BTW, if it's too low, keep in mind - due to hunger or epidemics, some nations will not survive with Western standards)?
Instead of increasing security spending government- or corporate-wide, I would rather suggest increasing spending on education (it helps to keep kids informed that property is theft), health (shoot the HMOs in their fat feet), social support infrastructure (help the weak wihtout feeding the corporate greed), etc., the list goes on. Oh, and while on it, fix the voting system.
On-line problems are just part of terminally ill system.
