> One of the things that really killed Yahoo, that no one talks about, is that they had these security people called Paranoids. They were great, super smart, always available, BUT, they held sway over everything and it was very very easy to just say, "naw, forget that 6 months of work, throw it all away, the Paranoids say we can't put it on production machines." I'm pretty surprised to hear that Yahoo had a security team with that much influence, given their leak of over 1bn accounts and subsequent failure to disclose that information for 3 years. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/dec/14/yahoo-hac... |
