I was confused by your quotation, because I thought surely Barr wouldn't be arguing against his own point.

But it turns out that his opinion of what constitutes security and safety is completely opposite my own.

Same exact reaction here. Had to re-read it several times. For anyone else confused: I think by "security" he's referring to infosec and by "safety" he's referring to physical safety. (As opposed to my initial reading, where I thought "security" meant physical security and "safety" meant online safety.)
