We spoke to the robocall blocking company @youmail. Their data show that illegal calls from the auto-warranty operation “are down to near zero” and show no signs of recovering: https://t.co/Tool06nKjC — PolitiTweet.org

The takedown targeted those incessant auto-warranty robocalls, an overwhelming share of which come from just two men and a network of shell companies, according to an Ohio lawsuit. We go into the op’s alleged details and what led investigators to it: https://t.co/Tool06nKjC — PolitiTweet.org

It's more helpful to think about the age of a technology insofar as it supports the *overall* mission, with shifting conditions constantly forcing reevaluation based on risks and benefits. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
The takeaway is not to view a technology's age as inherently reflective of whether the tech is somehow good or bad. It's not really a binary. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
At that stage, overall system resilience is affected and even if there is nothing wrong with the technology per se, a solid risk assessment absolutely must account for those things going unrecoverably wrong. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
But there are times when "old" starts to become a liability, and that is usually when systems are no longer supported by vendors with security updates or when the knowledge to operate the technology becomes so rare that it becomes its own point of failure. — PolitiTweet.org

It's the Battlestar Galactica reboot thing, where "old" was actually better because it closed off a cybersecurity vulnerability. — PolitiTweet.org
Brian Fung | @[email protected] @b_fung
There's nothing inherently wrong with using old systems or technologies, and a lot of people tend to conflate "old" with "bad." In mission-critical systems, "don't fix what ain't broke" is more important than being on the bleeding edge. — PolitiTweet.org

(This is relevant in the context of California's privacy law, which is regarded as the toughest currently on the books in the US.) — PolitiTweet.org

But some sticking points remain: A few California lawmakers, for example, objected to the bill's provisions preventing individual states from passing or enforcing tougher privacy laws than the proposed federal standard. — PolitiTweet.org
