Beyond Schneier

Bruce Schneier has a new blog. His most recent post is an article he wrote for the International Herald Tribune discussing the Department of Homeland Security's insistence that all passports (US or otherwise) be machine readable using RFID technology:

Normally I am very careful before I ascribe such sinister motives to a government agency. Incompetence is the norm, and malevolence is much rarer. But this seems like a clear case of the Bush administration putting its own interests above the security and privacy of its citizens, and then lying about it.

You gotta love the guy.
