We need people at his level who come from the hacking community and get it, but it's rare to see someone from that background have the leadership and communications skills. It's hard to believe that we might even see a hacker run for president.

I've never seen a hack that affected children as much as this one, this is sort of the Ashley Madison for children. People unwittingly trusting their personal information in a company that wasn't equipped to handle it.

Breaches are huge financial issues, even existential issues for companies. They are getting bigger and more impactful to the companies being breached.

As a society, we need to fund critical open-source projects [ that ] technology providers rely on and make us all vulnerable when vulnerabilities are found, i hope that the White House invited members of the Apache Group or other prominent open-source maintainers so they could hear about the struggles these volunteer teams have and resources they could use the most.
